i would guess thats just where his arms were flung the force they are seeing in that roll is probaly more than he can control i thnk you can see his arm restraint the black band keeping him form breking his arms

Nick´s Hands - Kimi Gloves!

Post

I agree with you, FLC, he seems to be protecting his head -he has his hands closed and facing his head, like he was in a box ring.

By the way, Venom mentioned Kimi, there´s an awesome picture at http://www.mclaren.co.uk of Kimi putting his gloves on (I don´t know how to write it, sorry!). I love those black and white gloves!

He seems like getting ready to fly to the battle in a Stars Wars Tie-Fighter!

I noticed some pictures of the roll where Nick was holding the wheel and turning still for quite some time, he may have just realized too late what he was doing and didn't have time to grab his belts. Or maybe he was just hoping to push the car back over before it hit...

Simon: Nils? You can close in now. Nils?
John McClane: [on the guard's phone] Attention! Attention! Nils is dead! I repeat, Nils is dead, ----head. So's his pal, and those four guys from the East German All-Stars, your boys at the bank? They're gonna be a little late.
Simon: [on the phone] John... in the back of the truck you're driving, there's $13 billon dollars worth in gold bullion. I wonder would a deal be out of the question?
John McClane: [on the phone] Yeah, I got a deal for you. Come out from that rock you're hiding under, and I'll drive this truck up your ass.

I saw somebody "wear a car", but I don't think it was the kid...this guy looked a little older (mid- to late-20's).
