They couldn't make a better place to stop for him?!

That was executed beautifully though... absolutely perfect speed. Couldn't have had a better landing.

Here's a monster truck doing 202 feet with no landing ramp...

Agreed. The jump was crazy enough but then, just to look down, is daunting...... and then jump off it? Ballzzzzz....

fuck that guy is crazy

GabAlmighty 01-01-2010 06:58 PM

Not exactly hard to do in the car, they have a computer program which calculates everything. Essentially all you have to do is pin the throttle to required speed, go off the ramp straight and stop the car from getting squirly on landing. The latter problem is solved with a properly executed takeoff..

The Arc de Triomphe one was pretty nuts in my books

JSALES 01-01-2010 07:02 PM

crazy

Pastrana is a psycho

Nitro circus is just a crazier/higher budget jackass lol

ouch looks like a hard knock at the end there but damn 269 feet is quite far

TypeRNammer 01-01-2010 11:43 PM

Couldn't they designed a better landing ramp? That looked like a hard crash!

Ramp's fine. But it takes a fair bit of room to stop a car

elkayem 01-02-2010 04:21 PM

He just destroyed that STI at the end. lol

I think he saved the car by hitting the barrier sideways instead of head on.
