I worked up some hand sweat when that thing starts turning. Why the hell didn't the driver switch to reverse and floor that shit.

Why anyone would ever drive or fly in a war torn country is beyond me. Even getting around first class in some parts of China as recently as the gloryhole era was insane, based on some shit my father has told me.

Thanks for posting that explanationless article
Having been at #3, #10, #36, #54, #71, #84 and #94 in the past couple years I couldn't tell you what made one better than the other, let alone safer. On first glance neither could the article.

Forgot to Add San Fransisco at #40, which was terrifying to fly into given its foggy oceanside location. At any rate it is kind of weird that a website wouldn't show any of their work for compiling or even linking to a list that big.
