This is nuts (and very dumb). Skip in about a third of the way if you please.

Dude just destroyed his Raptor for a tiny jump!
For context, a brand-new 2025 Raptor starts at $79,000.
But at least his Stanley mug is alright! Gotta leave you some comments:
That went well.
Perhaps he thought he could make enough on his TikTok to replace the truck?
That’s why the term “F Bomb” Idiot was created.
IIRC, they destroyed something like 55 of those cars during the shows run..................
He would’ve done better putting 70 K on a meme coin.
And in total it probably cost about the same as that Ford Raptor...LoL
A fool and his money were lucky to get together in the first place.
That’ll buff out…
Hey, watch this!
Is your phone recording?
Hold my gin.
I think your husband just got home.
We will raise taxes on only the rich.
I'm from the government and I'm here to help.
This will put Hillary Clinton in prison for life.
Allahu akbar!
If you eat from that tree you will not die, you'll be like God.
That’s why vintage Chargers are so hard to come by these days.
That and all the other cars wrecked to make TV shows and movies. That’s one area where CG is better - not destroying historical vehicles unnecessarily. I realize they weren’t historic when the scenes were filmed, but that just shows a lack of vision.
The documentary I saw said they basically cleared out most of California and had to start looking elsewhere...........
I am still trying to understand why it reacted like that. none of the cars or trucks I have jumped did that.
I think the front shocks were not stiff enough and he was going too fast for conditions.
(I had a friend who was a pro rally driver and motorcycle racer till he broke too many bones.) He said every single crash was caused by people were driving too fast for conditions, I beat this into my kids and added following distance, following distance, following distance.
Unfortunately they have still totaled hummers, rolled off cliffs, and done kid crap (I fixed the car that totaled by rear ending the hummer for $650 Why did we ever get rid of real bumpers ?)
I’m with you on CG in that respect.
Wonder what his medical bills would be plus insurance auto insurance increases? Any long term injuries?
Going to take a massive wave of Tik Tok.
Amazing how Bo & Luke would land and feel perfectly normal each time.
Same goes for Michael Knight.
Oops...

The moviemakers destroyed fifty plus, 1958 Plymouth Fury cars making the film ‘Christine’.
