Video: watch a man leap from a flaming car. In slow motion
A wannabe stuntman decides to celebrate Labor Day in the most epically dangerous way possible
WARNING: DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME
For most Americans, Labor Day is simply a good excuse for a day off work, in order to squeeze in one last tasty barbecue before winter.
But not for this fearless fool down in Alabama, who decided to celebrate the greatness, strength and prosperity of the world’s most powerful nation in a uniquely dangerous way.
As you’ll see above, his celebration consists of torching his truck until it's a raging inferno. Then, while it’s MASSIVELY ON FIRE, hopping behind the wheel to get the ute up to the kind of healthy speed needed to fire it off the side of the cliff. Then firing it off the side of a cliff.
However, that’s not the end of it. Once airborne, the madman decides to jettison himself from the four-wheeled firework before it plunges to a drowny death in a swamp below. All while being filmed in slow motion, of course. Yee-haw!
Michael Bay, eat your heart out.
WARNING: DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME. LIKE, REALLY. DON’T.
