1970s 8mm footage: Nurburgring Open Day car crashes

[S8 Booster]

Somewhat strange 8? Mm film footage from the 70s showing "open day" crashes on Nurburgring. Everyone could/still can take their moto out on the ring for a spin. A lot of crashes occour. In the 70s footage people are sometimes thrown out of their cars and lot of other strange things clearly showing that cars has become a lot safer than then.
