Well... he did break his back.

Dude spent a million bucks to set this thing up and didn't even make it 1/4 of the way across. His car disintegrated off the ramp. His parachute didn't deploy correctly. He broke his back. What an idiot.

The only thing he got right was hitting the ramp.

What a dumbass. The ultimate attention whore. :thumbsdown:

No, his parachute probably saved his bloody life. The car started to flip over and broke up almost as soon as it cleared the ramp. The parachute was probably a safety mechanism that actually worked.

How was he expecting to land even if he made it across the river?

 

[fustercluck]

Pretty cool, never seen that one.

You just can't turn a 1974 Lincon into a frigging F-16 by adding a jet engine
and some body mods....

parachute

But i think the funny thing was, if he succeeded, he would be far more likely to die than if he failed and landed in water.

 

[gooseman]

LOL, what a tool.

 

[Chaotic42]

Edit: oops

 

[dopcombo]

Maybe he intended for it to fail... as a publicity stunt that would get more interest?

1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet. Not sure how to relate it to something real world.
