After being pulled out of a ditch by some helpful spectators, this rally driver drove off in such a hurry that he dragged a spectator along with him.

The Czech rally driver, Martin Prokop, managed to slide off into a ditch during the Rally of Sweden last week, but luckily for Martin there were more than a few bystanders who were willing to help him and his co-driver out.

Sadly for two of the spectators who tried to help out, they didn’t let go of the rope attached to Prokop’s car in time and one of them ended up being dragged off his feet and onto the ground.

Thankfully he wasn’t injured, but we don’t suppose he was cheering for Prokop afterwards.
