[Great Asp]

I always heard those cars really fly.

E :shrug:

 

[STAMPEDE3]

Damm, why couldn't this be a time when someone was filming him for stupidity.

I'd love to see the in car on this one. lol

 

[CobraRed01]

Now that is classic.

"So...whata you in fur?"

"Oh...flying."

 

[KWClutch]

Must have launched it in AWD. lol

 

[1Bad04Mystic]

That must have been one hell of a ride. Probably had time in the air to go think WTF did I just do

 

[Powershift03]

HA HA!!

Did you guys see the last paragraph in the Jaopnik link?

"The driver, Royce Morales, was gone when police arrived, but he was later identified and arrested. Morales had attempted to report the car stolen. According to reports, he'll be charged with reckless driving, filing a false report and failing to register a flight path."

Car looks pretty intact for that kind of a flight too.

Front Impact = 5 star crash rating
Flying 100 feet and through a roof = 5 star crash rating.

If they had a video Subaru could have used it as a commercial.

Yeah of him taking his front/rear bumper home with him cause he actually survived.:lol1:

 

[rust0r]

"He missed a turn at 90 mph" :lol:

Neither right nor left looks like a 45mph turn, let alone 90

 

[texaswrx]

I too was hoping some kind of video would surface. It looks like none of the business had surveillance cameras to at least catch part of this.

 

[SVTLink]

What a chump, I would have cleared the building.

 

[101blur]

Man wish there was a video for this what a idiot

 

[LSWon00]

I have a new HERO.

 

[ThatOneCobra]

Haha lmao. I was hoping there was a video link. op:

 

[glhs422]

Yikes.

Wonder if he took an arrow to the knee.

 

[GTBill]

[Jimmysidecarr]

That right there is some pure rice fed talent on display.
Next big teen block buster material.. The Fast and the Airborne!

Pure CLASSIC!
