Greatest Car Stunt Ever Attempted

[Duke]

Linktastic. What a nut job.

 

[kikie]

Talking about failure. That is just plain stupid to even try something like that.

 

[Swift]

Did anyone do anykind of calculations for anything before that stupid stunt?

 

[Duke]

Well, it looks like they calculated the ramp fairly well, and maybe even the thrust. What they apparently failed to calculate was that a crappy mid-'70s Ford product would fly to pieces at 300 mph.

 

[Alex.]

arg, he was so close aswell!

 

[Jim Prower]

Even Bo Duke wouldn't be crazy enough to attempt THAT.

I remember that from The Faces of Death

classic stupidity to the nth power

 

[toyomatt84]

You'd have to be an absolute imbecile to think a Lincoln Continental could withstand that kind of pressure.

 

[socomplayer2]

lol the wind just blew him backwards

 

[ND4SPD]

Lmao! Damn, when he hit the ramp I thought he had a chance....

Hmm, never knew FoD was that old.

 

[ND4SPD]

Double post, ignore.

 

[Tornado]

That was awesome. Reminds me of Hooper, except with disintergration. But I digress: The barrel roll from Man With the Golden Gun beats that regardless.

 

[Revheadnz]

Heh, funny. I wonder what they thought would happen if had he made it to the other side going at 300mph falling out of the sky.

 

[tabs]

Yeah, he failed but at least he had some backbone. Oh wait..

 

[SR20DET]

Lol!!!

 

[Pupik]

That's some initial take-off speed! Too bad he'd tried a vehicle with the aerodynamics of a Wurlitzer.

 

[exigeracer]

He's lucky he landed in the water. Imagine slamming into the ground at crazy speeds like that? I guess that's what you get for living your life trying to please others.

"Powers was lucky, he had broken his back."

Great stuff!
