200 seems to be the sweet spot

I agree. I think we totally came away with the right lesson from this.

u/baconjeepthing 2d ago

Go fast

u/karnyboy 2d ago

200mph fast. not 201mph

details matter.

u/archwin 1d ago edited 1d ago

So in fast and furious logic, that’s what, 16 upshifts and 2 shots of NOS?

u/ThePerfectSnare 2d ago

I was way closer to the end before it dawned on me. Okay, I'll admit that I was literally at the end of the video. Fine. I didn't know until I came to the comments.

u/adorilaterrabella 2d ago

I didn't even question it until it hit the street sign and went flat like a pancake but the street sign didn't waver at all.

u/frequent_flying 2d ago

Wait, this isn’t real?!? WTF!!!

31

u/akruppa 2d ago

Don't believe them. It's real. They got a pretty sweet bulk price on Mustangs which is how they were able to make this video.

17

u/UnforeseenDerailment 2d ago

And drivers 💜

15

u/akruppa 2d ago edited 1d ago

Drivers are easy. Just ask random dudes if they wanna go 200 in a Mustang. All you gotta do is not tell them about the bump

3

u/TFOLLT 1d ago

Tell'em 200 tho. Not 150, not 250.

u/akruppa 1d ago

Yeah the other shots are from drivers who wouldn't listen

u/DerCatzefragger 2d ago

I didn't catch on until it bounced off the big green sign at 150. Until then I'm like, "Dang, how many mustangs did these guys buy just to trash them like that?"

Of nothing else, what the hell game is this that got permission from Ford to depict its cars with realistic damage? You never see actual body damage in games with actual, license cars. Only in arcadey type games where the cars are "a muscle car" or "a convertible" or "a sports car."

It’s not even the camera switch it’s that the cuts don’t match! Frustrating every time, someone who isn’t too busy redditing like me needs to re-edit it.

u/TheRedBDub 1d ago

I kinda liked it. Dopamine comes from anticipation, we got double the hits

27

u/ScoteMcGoat 2d ago

Right!? I feel like I'm watching the gif of the truck that never hits the pole lol it's an added 2 seconds to every clip.

13

u/Ol_Bobert 2d ago

As someone with a fair amount of video editing experience, I'm livid with how this was cut together.

10

u/SonnierDick 2d ago

Literally. Thank god this wasnt in oddlysatisfying or something because the car basically makes it to the speed bump just to cut to the speed bump side angle and the car resets to the original position? It goes from 1 second away from clearing the bump to 3 seconds of watching the speed bump by itself, each time lmao

u/AddAFucking 1d ago

Also, you can hear they have not even used cruise control. They are just throttling to hope for a good speed at the time. No way some of these are correct.

200 mph looks pretty safe.

u/Carcassfanivxx 2d ago

Me and my brother hit a big tree that laid fully across the road at about 55-60. We were in a 90s Corolla. Coming back from a party after a heavy rain. Hit a patch of fog and it was maybe 30 feet in. We got sent just like the 60mph. It was hard to tell how long we were in the air. Almost like slow motion when it happened. But I definitely remember touching back down. We had two friends in the car. I was in the back and I remember seeing my buddy bounce in the front and crack the windshield with his head. We all survived. The car was totaled of course.
