Video: 8,000bhp 'funny car' explodes at 200mph+

A car doing over 200mph exploded during a funny cars drag race in the US - but amazingly, the driver walked away completely unhurt...and in a bit of a huff. *Obvious joke alert* Funny cars weren't so funny for him.

The short clip below shows driver Matt Hagan's funny car (a drag racing class in the US) blowing up during a qualifying heat of the 4-Wide Nationals drag racing series, in Charlotte, North Carolina.
