New footage of notorious racecar crash involving legendary poker player surfaces, sparking a flurry of new rumors and unanswered questions about how and why the accident happened.
Miami, FL (PRWEB) July 17, 2007 -- Just when legendary poker player Phil Hellmuth thought he'd put the embarrassment of his pre-WSOP racecar crash behind him, never-before-seen footage of the notorious accident has surfaced on the internet, generating a flurry of new questions.
"The new clip sets the record straight on what really happened behind the wheel," stated Phil Hellmuth after learning of the new video. "Hopefully, this will put all rumors and conspiracy theories to rest."
Minutes after the accident, a short video clip of Phil Hellmuth crashing his racecar into a cinderblock was posted on several popular poker forums and viewed by tens of thousands. Rumors ran rampant that the crash was staged.
Given that the car was branded with Phil Hellmuth's face and UltimateBet.net's signature poker chip logo, marketing experts immediately deemed the accident a publicity stunt by the popular online poker site. The latest clip shows what actually happened before, during and after the crash.
While many had questioned whether Phil Hellmuth was even behind the wheel of the 200mph racecar when it met the cinderblock head-on, another rumor might help prove that he was.
Hollywood insiders report that Phil Hellmuth is using millions of his career poker winnings to fund the film adaptation of TV's Knight Rider and that the 11-time WSOP bracelet winner was simply test-driving one of the cars between shots. It's not clear whether Hellmuth will remain behind the scenes or whether he'll take on the role that kicked off David Hasselhoff's career. This story has been neither confirmed nor denied by Phil Hellmuth.
The new footage is making waves across the poker world and has already surfaced on YouTube and other video sharing sites. Watch Phil Hellmuth's racecar accident video.
