" He cleared the river "

I blew the pic up.. I don;t think you are too far off. It looks like one of the mid 2000's 300 with round headlights.

 

It gives you wings.

 

Not gonna lie, I Lol’d at that one.

 

They need to find his cell phone because you know good and well he was recording it for later internet fame.

 

Actually it doesn't or he would have had a better landing

 

He pussed out on the throttle..

He neeeded to clear the trees..

 

He didn't need wings as much as needing a chute.

 

He should bought a Cirrus instead of a Mercedes.

 

Also been thinking about this...I wonder how many ti.es he saw that stretch of road and was like....I can clear that....


Or maybe he thought he's end up in the river.

And last o e...do you have to survive for it to be a world record?

 

Maybe at impact?

 

Rc51 powered

 

so the cliff was 84 ft high.

i really thought it would have taken him more speed to get that far, but no...

 

Look at the engineer nerd using his numbers and shit.....




So assuming Cletus' wife is 5'3" and 225lbs. Cletus is 5'8" and 145lbs soaking wet. Assuming the wife's hand has an angular velocity of ~7,000 degrees/sec how far will drunk Cletus fly when his ol' lady slaps his drunk ass for talking back?

 

Or a Saab.

 

That calculation assumes this test was performed in a vacuum? Does it account for a drag coefficient? What do you suppose the BC of a 300D would be? What about wind?

 

Maybe the car spiralled....

 

It’s a car doing a hundie. Not a golf ball, tin cup.

Would take a decent wind to mess with those numbers, more than a couple feet either way.
