Well, do you guys think they photshopped the time he jumped 2 cars head on in the air at a combined speed of 110mph...? or maybe when he jumped 75 feet out of a helicopter into the back of a semi moving at 45mph..? how about the time he ran a car under a semi to make an instant convertible ... ALL DRUING THE LATE 80's AND EARLY 90's - WHEN PHOTOSHOP WAS ALL THE RAGE :rolleyes:


dude its real, trust me. you can look up all the stuff I just mentioned too.

Calling that a dump truck is a real stretch. Obviously hand built just for that jump and very lightweight fiberglass and tubing.

I remember Spanky... that guy would jump a stock Honda Pilot farther than most of us would jump a race quad. He did it at a Monster truck show I went to when I was a kid one time. Crazy mofo...

If it was photochopped(i think it wasnt) then they did a hell of a job with the shadows and everything. That stuffs real tho, my friend remembers watching some of his stunts
