as for the forum full of professional drivers.. that's the sad part. even inexperienced 16 year olds could watch the video and laugh at his lack of reaction to the wipe out .. lol.
As was said you didn't see what led to the slide due to the camera being turned so you don't know about his reaction or lack thereof.

Everyone laughs from the internet but until you are placed in that situation with a split second to react you don't know.

By the way the car was an automatic, with the wet roads and the uphill grade if he happened to give it just a little too much throttle it could have downshifted unexpectedly and sent him sideways in a hurry. I have had it happen too many times.
