Joe Rogan - Dale Earnhardt Jr. on What It's Like to Flip a Car

The good old days when you could make minimum wage and also buy a car.

To those people who just shrug off a wreck like its no big thing. We've torn up a lot of shit to get our nerves to this point... my pic is the reason I no longer flinch

All that shit is choreographed with other professionals. Imagine hauling 14500 gallons of gasoline, grossing 120k, 135 ft long and hauling that shit through traffic with drunks, drug addicts, mentally ill. Nascar don't compare to the American truck driver 🇺🇲

Imagine that life. Having Earnhardt as your dad.

Great interview GOD BLESS YOUR DAD DALE EARNHARDT

Dale Jr is surprisingly a humble dude.

"Now you're messin' with a son of a bitch". IYKYK

These dudes are what makes the common folks of my small town heroes! I live in kannapolis and I know all the places. These dudes turned a life of dissatisfaction into their own American dream. God bless 🙏

I’d love to hear about them ass whoopms dale

I'd never let him drive with me as a passenger. Ohh.. it only rolled 3 times. F you man.

What’s the worst that’s going to happen you’re gonna flip on your roof like a turtle😂🐸

Now show of hands how many of you are masons I state my point I’m still smarter than you I win😂

How many spectators watch NASCAR go see NASCAR sporting events are a bunch of dumb rednecks, but can’t figure out if you just round the walls of the track less people will get hurt racing😂

This is my theory for a safer NASCAR go to an empty pool and take an RC car if you left the spectators up on the stand, not only can they see the race better, but it doesn’t hurt their neck to watch you run the track😂

If that race car catches the side of the wall, just like that guy with the motorcycle in the metal cage is a spear you can let off the gas and you might not crash anymore

Look at the way a pool is without water

Do you know what you can do to improve NASCAR raise the stands up so they’re higher than the track and round off the walls like a big wave when the car is going around the track instead of flying against the gate and almost into the stands it’ll just fly back into the track

Steering wheel is the worst thing to grip in a crash, it’ll tear your hands off.

Use the Centripetal Force, Dale. I am your Father

He's an awesome guy but lets be real, Jr sucked as a driver. Had some wins on SSWs but didn't have the talent anywhere else. Popularity doesn't equal wins.

Dale Jr is that guy you can totally relate to.....lol

What a great description of flipping over in a car.

I'm from the UK and NASCAR Cup racing always blew my mind when ever I managed to catch a race, now I can watch full time in the UK it still blows my mind how crazy the driving is, WRC & NASCAR Cup are for next level crazy drivers thats for sure

Zero chance he flipped an S-10 7 times.

Good question. That was the best description & most educational explanation of what that kind of a wreck is like. Thanks, Dale.

'Flip a car'. I though he was gonna tell a story about selling a car he owned.

Flipped a 73 Plymouth Duster 6 times bumper to bumperand luckily landed on the wheels

The fact Dale Sr was a bazilliionair and still refused to call a wrecker or felt the need to spiil his children. Although there are the stories where dad wasn't around due to racing multiple series. Can't buy that time back no matter how much of a bazillionair you are.

Never grab the wheel grab ya chest belts just sayin

Dig it

It’s like watching sparklers

Joe rogan silent ........how did you flip on christmas

Great interview ❤️🇺🇸

I stopped watching NASCAR after Dale Sr. passed. It's just not the same anymore. The cars, the rules etc.

Fantastic interview. Honestly, it wasn’t much of an interview as much as it was just Dale talking about his experiences. Ask him a question and I can listen to this dude talk about whatever for however long.

Your dad is the reason for a lot of that safety equipment.

I grew up in the country so I've rolled a car before, but it's not really a scary moment, it's more of a oh shit! I fucked up moment.

Wasn't at 200mph, but was a normal car not a roll bar safety harnessed car

My brother worked for a big bank in Charlotte and he met Dale Sr.and his wife to possibly take over his banking account,he said Sr.was a pretty good guy and his wife wouldn’t stfu,he ended getting the account and one his responsibility’s was paying Jr.his weekly salary when he started his first nascar lower racing league,his salary was 400.00 dollars a week,he said jr was a really nice guy.

For anyone who doesn’t know, he’s likely telling this story so passionately because it’s a core memory with his dad. He sadly lost his dad during a race they were in together, also why he’s probably a huge fan of the advancements of safety equipment

Lmao like going in circles is hard😂😂. F1 takes way more skill.

I loved watching him run, but his greatest accomplishment is being a good father and person! Good luck and God bless!

I was never into nascar, my father passed away when I was a wee lad, my mom told me the other day that when Dale died that my dad cried one of the few times she seen him cry, I’d prolly be into nascar a lot more had he not died but that’s life, rip dad ❤️

Wow!! that was a great interview. I felt like I was in the car while he was explaining what it's like to be a race car driver.

There's that car flip where a Saudi guy looses his arm from the force.

Hold it wide open 😂😂😂😂

damn that is a drive to hickory and back for work

I see a whole bunch of comments talking about what a great father Dale was and how he raised Dale Jr. so well. And from what I've heard in other interviews, I would have to disagree. Now don't get me wrong. I think many of his methods were solid. Making his son work for the things he wanted instead of just giving his son whatever.....that was good. The problem though was that Dale wasn't anything close to being called an affectionate or loving father. Growing up, Dale Jr. rarely sat down and just talked with his dad. They didn't even talk about racing. How is that possible? I would think, if they talked about anything at all, it would at least be about racing. Dale taught his son nothing about racing. I just find that baffling. They didn't hug, they didn't say "I love you son." or "I love you dad." And that is pretty sad. Because those things are just as important as teaching your kids to be self-reliant. So while Dale was good in some ways, he was also terrible in others. And I know much of it stems from Dale's relationship with his own father. But fortunately this appears to have stopped with Dale Sr. Because Dale Jr. is not that way with his own children.

I guess this is the Midwest attitude but you got to earn what you get because if you know anybody that's been given anything in their lives I don't I know a lot of people that work there f**** ass off.

I was just a mysterious accident I got told my car rolled seven times I don't remember nothing.. just a loud bang and then being outside of my vehicle and I got told even by paramedics they're not wearing my seatbelt saved my life so you guys can shut the fuk up about all you should have been wearing your seatbelt you should have been wearing your seatbelt it should have been wearing your seatbelt have you ever read this the tistic some people that died because of their f**** seatbelt do you know that it is just about the same as the amount of life that it saves did you know that no because you don't want to do your own f**** research I'm so sick of you f**** retards

These Nascar guys are such drama queens; my daughter flipped her rav4 this last weekend 5 times, and didn't get hurt.
