I heard about this yesterday morning - they actually showed the accident on Sportscenter, and it actually looked like he got the car slowed down pretty well before it went into the sand / net, but I guess it wasn't enough.

Yea, in the video you can see that the chutes deployed and then detached from the car right away.
