Calgary's Matt Campbell and his team lost control of their vehicle on treacherous terrain last weekend in Bolivia during the famed Dakar Rally.
Campbell, the 64-year-old is the CEO of Rocky Mountain Equipment, and his crew made of co-driver Luis "Fito" Ramirez and navigator Nico Ambriz endured a frightening 174 km/h end-to-end rollover in a remote desert zone.
The crash took place at a water crossing, where Campbell and, were expecting a relatively shallow stream, based on the relatively tame "Danger 2" sign along the course.
The Calgary Sun reports "Campbell is now in a Chilean hospital, undergoing MRI tests to check for internal damage - but it appears he suffered no life-threatening injuries in the wreck".
