Am I the only one who gets a thrill out of being in a car crash?

OK so last night, while out for drive with friends, we had the misfortune of writing off my friends car. Now we weren't speeding, it was pure bad luck, the road was slicker then usual due to rain, plus a bit of loose gravel on asphalt seemed to be enough to guide the car off the road where we rolled for a short distance, everyone was OK, minor bumps and bruises. Looking back on past accidents I've been part of, I really get a thrill out of the accidents, the realization of the inevitable, the smashing of the glass, and the rending of metal as the car contorts, the feeling of the spinning and flipping as the vehicle hurls through the air and over the ground, the smell of the air as it rushes in through the broken glass, and the violence followed by the eerie calm as everything comes to a rest. Now is this a remotely normal reaction, cause I love being in them, I've never been the cause of one as I don't want my car wrecked and try and avoid them at all costs, but damn when it happens, for the next few days I'm all revved up on the rush of it. Anyone else experience anything like this?
