That video reminds me of when I am late to work!

 

Too bad the f@$%er didnt crash and burn into a wall doing it for putting that many lives at risk. Good deal the director was arrested for the film, but he should have been beaten with a bat.

As much as hauling @$$ through town sounds fun, this filmaker could have easilly gotten someone killed just for his film.

 

That was real? I thought they just took a camera through at normal speeds then added the effects.

 

There is a story on the right side of it that tells how they did it.

 

didn't even notice that when I watched it.

Wow! That is stupid

 

yea, its legendary in automotive history simply because of the sheer degree of ***** it took to do something like that

yea, it was stupid, but at least they planned to do it at that time in the morning when there weren't *as* many people. Still a piece of history, regardless.

 

Once you get passed the "they could have killed somebody" thoughts, it's an amazing piece of driving. I would guess from the sounds of the engine that he is heal-and-toeing, that's why you hear the throttle blips between down-shifts. My guess is that he was a professional F1 driver who would have lost his race license had they discovered who he was.

It is more or less a fake. Discussed many times, it has a wikipedia entry

 

yup, you're right, its a F1 driver. I forgot his name, but I believe its in the wikipedia entry.

 

It certainly looked like it to me.

 

wow thats intense

ive been to the upside down u shaped structure before! haha

 

I would like to know the source of the Wikipedia info; seems there's more to the story than is stated.
