Turkish singer sets blind speed record in Ferrari
Turkish pop-singer Metin Senturk became the world's fastest unaccompanied blind driver on Friday and said he felt he had danced with death.
Senturk wept as he emerged from a Ferrari F430 at Urfa airport in eastern Turkey to learn from Guinness World Records officials his average speed of 292.89 kph broke the previous record of 284 kph, held by a British bank manager.
"I don't think there are any words to describe this feeling. I am really happy. It was really hard, like a dance with death," said Senturk, who has been blind since the age of three.
Following Senturk in a separate vehicle was former rally driver Volkan Isik, who guided the blind man by radio.

Go drive down the freeway at 50 mph blind dude then I might be impressed. This is just feeding his rich ego.

now put him in rush-hour traffic!!
seriously, 'dance with death' is absolutely correct. 300kph and not being able to see is CRAZY!! congrats on the record-setting.
