This doesn't look safe

If anyone thinks a real car can jump and still run like nothing's wrong (aka Hollywood) this shows the truth. :Q

(or it would make more sense to take a ferry across the river! :laugh🙂

Both of those look like they could have been easily fatal.

All 3 did. The yellow car looked like the chutes got tangled up and didn't deploy fully...he hit the water going pretty fast.

JATO bottle + old hoopty Lincoln + huge-ass ramp = fail
 
what was wrong with the first truck jump? obviously it was a bad landing, but it didn't look that bad, especially when compared to the others
 
i believe the guy on the bike was mr. evil knievil. the yellow lincoln was a custom build with lincoln panels. when the body is torn away you can see all the guts, plus it floats 😉 i like the wiglets, to enhance the already sophistacted aerodynamics of the continental

Yeah, I loved those, too. 🙂

The guy at :35 must have died. The edge of the ramp went right into his face. 🙁
 
lol @ Kenny Powers .. the car just disintegrates when it leaves the ramp. Those stupid wings were the first thing to go, along with nearly the entire remaining body. They should have had some aircraft designers from Lockheed Martin or something on the staff if they were serious.

Looks like he busted his rear axle.


Cars can make jumps like that and land and be fine. But you have to have a serious suspension setup for that.

Yeah, it didn't help that he chose a car with the aerodynamics of a brick.
