6 News has obtained additional footage of the crash, which - while not being graphic due to the distance away it was filmed & the video quality itself - we have chosen to heavily censor due to the nature of the story.

Spectators are heard saying 'f*ck' seconds after the car left ground and began rolling repeatedly.

The footage was also broadcast live on Facebook.
