Eddie Griffin’s crash may be just hoax · 2007-03-28 18:15
Eddie Griffin’s ultra-expensive crash in a $1.5 million Ferrari Enzo has been all over television and the Internet today, but could the pricey wipeout really be a brilliant marketing ploy?
In the video obtained by CBS2 News in Los Angeles, it shows the car slamming into a concrete barricade. But, to quote Dr. Henry Lee from the O.J. Simpson case, “Something wrong.”
Someone may roll the video on TMZ.com and take a close look at the guy standing next to the concrete barrier. He doesn’t even flinch as the car comes near. Also, it’s pretty interesting that after the crash, Griffin joked it up, saying, “Undercover Brother’s good at karate and all the rest of that, but the brother can’t drive.”
This isn’t the first time that one of Daniel Sadek’s high-priced cars have been wrecked. During production of his movie, “Redline,” two of the producer/real estate investor’s expensive Porsche Carrera GTs were totaled during filming. One of the collisions was designed as a stunt. The other was an accident.
Eddie Griffin’s publicist said “Eddie was crying this morning.” He added Sadek “has no car in his garage now.” We’re guessing Sadek’s license plate doesn’t read: “My second car is a Toyota.”
