August 1, 1976 his car burst into flames, but, unlike Lunger, he was trapped in the wreckage. He suffered severe burns to his head and inhaled hot toxic gases that damaged his lungs and blood. He was conscious and able to stand immediately after the accident, he later lapsed into a coma and a priest administered the last rites. Incredibly, however, he not only survived but returned to race only six weeks (two races) later, finishing a sensational fourth in the Italian GP.

Novelist
Czechoslovakia

Franz Kafka

He was born on July 3, 1883 – June 3, 1924. He was one of the major German-language novelists and short story writers of the 20th century, whose unique body of writing — most of it incomplete, and published posthumously despite his wish that it be destroyed — has become iconic in Western literature. His most famous pieces of writing include his short story Die Verwandlung (The Metamorphosis) and his unfinished novel Der Prozess (The Trial). An adjective has come into common use to denote mundane yet absurd and surreal circumstances of the kind commonly found in Kafka's work.
