We discover just how realistic the game's gnarliest pile-ups and crashes really are...

Wayback in December 2006 Alex Ward, director of design for Burnout Paradise, said "If you don't believe the crash is real, then it's not going to frighten you." So just how realistic are the crashes in Burnout Paradise? To find out we trawled the internet to find some footage of real test crashes, replicated them in-game, and put the two side-by-side.

Executive Producer, GR Video

Hi I'm James or JJ if you like, I'll answer to both. I'm the Executive producer for GR video which means I've had at least a part in all the hot moving pictures you'll find on the site (even if that part was just saying, yes that's a good video). I also produce the Future Games Show and Golden Joystick Awards. Away from the office you'll either find me playing Fortnite, or walking my dog. I'm better at one than the other, I'll let you decide which.
