A car is not an airplane.... If he had some way of controlling his nose up attitude he could have made the jump. The correct speed is only part of the problem, keeping it from pitching nose down or up, or level comes into play the greater the distance traveled. Anything less is just "luck". Happy he wasn't hurt seriously.

Wow, didn't see that coming. He needed a Nascar HANS device to keep his head stable. Some wings might have helped.

Wow!

Live to try another day...

Die another day.

Be bad to leave the wife and kids.

Cool what cameras can do and let us see.

Wow... didn't see that coming either. If MINI's were mass produced like that I would have one. Sweet car. Glad he wasn't hurt.
