Yup, VDC, as with any traction control system, can't conquer the laws of physics....

I'd be willing to bet after he started getting loose, he just hammered the brakes and let the rest happen all by itself. Might have been saved by a more experienced driver since he had plenty of space, and was most likely going in a straight line when it started.....lock them up, and you usually guarante the outcome.
