EPIC!, i'm surprised they didn't spin out upon landing, seems to be the case with 9/10 videos like this on youtube

Yikes! Tires could have blown due to the shock load - that could have killed the driver. :ohno:

Ah, yes ... must have been a member of the "I am invincible" age group. Why do some teenagers act like they have just had pre-frontal lobotomies? :confused:

Oh, well. I guess I am just an old fart. :biggrin:

Needs a "because race car" caption with car hovering.

Also, that's not a huge jump, the car is really only 3 feet above the road at any given time, and on a gradual decline...
It's just the speed that makes me go oy.

He was fully commited, do or die, and he would have died. That's what vaults this to epic status.

Wow. Five feet left or right on the landing and they are head on into what looks to be a nice and lethal row of trees.

Holy hell. That was insane.

I almost forgot to post in here because of how in amazement I was that they didn't die.

Pretty cool. It was one of those rare videos where "hey y'all, watch this" did not result in disaster.

You guys made me think of this...

From a judge in Kentucky:
"Such news of an amicable settlement (has) made this Court happier than a tick on a fat dog because it is otherwise busier than a one legged cat in a sand box and, quite frankly would have rather jumped naked off a twelve foot step ladder into a five gallon bucket of porcupines than have presided over a two week trial of the herein dispute, a trial which, no doubt would have made the jury more confused than a hungry baby in a topless bar and made the parties and their attorneys madder than mosquitoes in a mannequin factory,"
