Blind Driver Hits 200 mph, Aims for 500 mph - Auto - FOXNews.com

A blind South African man has earned a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records by driving a car...at 200 miles per hour.

And that's not even the most insane part of this story:

It's not the first time that the motivational speaker has driven at high speeds. In 2005 he set the record at 167 mph in a Maserati, before a blind Belgian driver stole it from him with a 191 mph run.

Wagner hopes his next feat will be to break 500 mph at the helm of a Boeing jet full of passengers flying between London and Johannesburg.

Not only did he do this feat, but someone else keeps trying to beat him for the record. And now he's going to try and fly a plane.

By the way, got to love Fox News or AP's word choice that I bolded. Stole huh? There's a "I bet he didn't see it coming" joke in there somewhere. :eusa_eh:
