That's exactly how it was. They cut to the boys bouncing around in the car, followed by a totally different car driving away without a scratch on it.

Were you able to see the jump?

The dragstrip at the Bristol Motor Speedway.

This is the first one I've seen do that. Good to know there are others.

Thanks

His back was fine

They always put on a great show! Northeast Ohio Dukes never disappoints!

About a month ago

If that RIP was for the car, you should know it wasn't a genuine Charger. It was built for the jump to look like a Charger.

This is mocton NB

@@littlemadgamer0 yup ik

You go at french or English school

@@banathegoat french

What school you go too

French or English school

Sorry you missed it. I'm glad you at least got to see it on video.

SAME

Like they did it at noon on a Friday, I had to miss it for work!

Same I live there and never knew it happened

That's pretty cool

A lot of people wish they could say that. You witnessed history in the making.

Yes it was!

It wasn't a real Charger.

It sure was. Here is a link to another General Lee jump. This one was done by Corey Eubanks, one of the stunt men from the original TV series, recreating the first jump over the original Roscoe car in Georgia: ru-vid.comF7cbXYcw0xE

Thanks

That's just under the porch

To put on a show for the fans. To keep the Dukes Of Hazzard alive. We all loved watching Bo & Luke jump the General Lee on TV.

@brucefixesstuff they never showed a classic car being totalled. You need a better ramp design and landing ramp. You could jump over a boss hogg caddy and land, and reuse the same car. ?

That rope was used for tying up a ship. It's plenty strong.

​@brucefixesstuff i could go on and on about tension and everything but youre not gonna listen based on your comments,

Yes it is!

Your town was chosen to be the first place they jumped a General Lee in Canada. That's something to be proud of.

🫡

They built that car out of aftermarket parts. It wasn't a Charger. They didn't wreck a classic. It just looked like one.

@@brucefixesstuff I hope so.

Me too!

No, it was custom made for the stunt. A replica.

It was a replica

It wasn't really. I was safe inside the truck, and the people watching were far enough away to also be safe.

Sorry for your loss. Your grandmother's funeral was more important. It was unfortunate that the timing didn't allow you to do both. Seeing that jump in person might have helped cheer you up a bit after the funeral, even if just for a little while. I'm glad you at least got to see it on video. I have another General Lee jump on my channel, performed by one of the stuntman from the original series, Corey Eubanks, back in 2003 in Covington Georgia where the first 5 episodes of the series were filmed.
