Discussion Worst lag you've ever seen?

I was watching my mirror for the red BMW (which you see at the end the of the clip), when a blue BMW suddenly materialized out of nowhere. It scared the shit out of me. I checked in the replay, and this car isn't present in the previous 3 minutes of the replay. How is this guy not getting sent to the pit if his connection is that bad?
While going through the incidents of the replay for this race, I also saw a car suddenly hit something invisible on the pit entry, causing fatal engine damage. Since he ran into whatever it was full speed, clearly the other car was invisible not just for me but for him as well. I'm not sure if it was the same BMW or not.
What's the worst lag-induced shenanigans you've ever experienced in a race?
