looks like you wanted to put a hand out or it got blown off the wheel and then had the where with all to put it back on,, glad you had the harnesses on,, most videos you see people are not wearing belts at all,,

I would like to see what Can Am has to say about the seats coming out like that. This should be a huge concern for them.

You might want to contact Can Am and let them see this video. I'm sure they would like to see how their seats ejected themselves in a roll over. You never know they might be inclined to help you with some replacement parts.

I just remembered there was a video on here showing a Russian? company testing the new Can Am right when it was released. They did a similar slide barrel roll and the seat came loose the same way. The crappy stock seat belt and a death grip on the steering wheel was the only thing that kept the driver from being completely ejected from the car. At one point you could see where the drivers leg was over the steering wheel and one hand had been jerked off the wheel. A day or so after being posted it was removed from You-Tube.

It tore up the front bumper, tore the P/side door off, bent the right rear control arm assembly.

There is a very small pin that holds the latch in for the seat.. Yes I think they should recall there design of that system.. I have cut out the stock stuff and made some wield in mounts that are bolt in.
