Where is the other belt? That upside down one looks real loose.

Re: V Belt upside down
Looks to me like the generator came loose and the inner belt jumped off taking the outer one off and flipping it. Or vice versa, the outer one flipped the inner one to the outside as it jumped the grooves to the inside. Unless the pully cut a groove in the belt you should be able to untangle things and put them back on and tighten them up.

So much for the old 'matched belt' theory....
Re: V Belt upside down
Judging by the fact that the one still on is upside down AND loose I would say they were equally very loose and it was just a matter of when one went it took the other with it.

Re: V Belt upside down
Not the first time I have seen it, nor the first time I have had it happen to me. Very common with race engines turning high rpms. I have had the loose belt get caught up in the fan and shred the radiator.
