Wow that was an era when “safety equipment” was a misnomer.

Safety equipment was the guy with the fire extinguisher in the infield.

Besides, he's got his goggles and helmet, and at least two of his tires appear to be in working order. ;-)

I know a lot of the guys who raced in the 50s were in WW2 combat, so racing cars didn’t seem all that dangerous.
