Ow ow ow: Magician’s trick misfires at Atlanta Motor Speedway

The scene: Atlanta Motor Speedway's Thursday Thunder drag races. The story: Moodini the Magician, who can escape from chains linked to the bumper of a speeding car before the chain pulls taut. Or so you'd hope:

Ow. The wreck left Moodini with a broken ankle, wrist and clavicle. The problem, Moodini's manager said, was that there's supposed to be enough slack in the chain for 8 to 10 seconds' worth of escape time; as you can see, our pal gets only an eyeblink.

Best wishes to Moodini for a speedy recovery ... and hopefully a desk job in the near future.
