World Record Car Jump  

Rest In Peace E34 :(

"Kids get in the camper we are going on a road trip!"

looks like he forgot to brace for impact.

I recognised the set up music. Its the music that plays in the final mission of driver sanfransisco

2:16 - The song is "Eye For An Eye", by U.N.K.L.E.

E34. Solid as a tank and the peak of the automobile industry.

BMW makes really good flying machines

He forgot to takes his hands off the wheel, he could of broken then both.

I must have felt so scared and tense in his place, would have probably braked really hard in the middle of the ramp to avoid a dangerous crash.. really brave of him, deserved that record.

6:31 i believe i can fly

Kids in Antarctica could have eaten that BMW

Poor 530i E34. :(

did such a sweet e34 really have to die for this!??

thumb up for that BEAUTIFUL LAUNCH !

making Richard Hammond proud

Shame. That looked like a nice 530i beforehand.

Silly, non-sense, I love it !

Jump starts a 6:15

You destroyed a beautiful BMW E34

6:40 Man, how can you do that to an Austin Maestro and an Escort van using a BMW like that. The BMW drivers are really at it this time, it seems.

Impressive jump !

So did he actually achieve 85 MPH?

I've never really got the point of using a jump like this for distance records. Sure it takes a lot of guts to perform, but beyond that just drive fast and you win. Jumping a huge distance is a lot more impressive when you have to land it!

its the stunt that the war rages in top gear vs fifth gear

e34 - best car

6:24 you are welcome

Bloody right mate!!

That camper exploded like a firecracker

Amazing! Good man!👍🏻

When even a stunt driver gets surprised by a common e30/E34 problem @7:44

Reminds me of the older griswalds movies

Most excellent!

Hahaha that mathematician was a mad man, way off!

This sort of stuff is going to get insane when cars like the Tesla, that can be driverless, get more common. I can envision entire shows, like battle bots, specializing in using driverless cars to do outrageous stunts at very high speeds.

6:15 is the jump

For a second there, I thought he would actually fly pass the cars and land on the road.

how d the car fare out . show the inside of the car! we want to see how well it stud up to the cras!. Dano 7/19/16

Really sick bro.

Rip BMW 5-Series (e34)

wait a second... this was from 2004? yet it's in 1080p.

thank god he is ok

it'll buff out

AWESOMENEES !!!!!!

The caravan exploded

In America we have 30 foot campers some around 40

Scientific physics mumbo jumbo vs. Randomized crumple zones decided by quantum mechanics. Awsome! Driver putting his faith in random crumple zones and QM. Gotta love a driver with balls.

he did that record one day before I was born lol

POOR BMW

why does he sound like alex for carthrottel

The stunt man seems quite nervous about the whole thing?!

Poor E34

crazy man

Poor Beemer :( They were much more common in 2004 but still :/

Derek is the Top Gear Stunt Man, right?

what were they thinking?!

this is what the mans like

Mind blowing ohh😲 my😱 God it's very dangerous

At one point the general lee had a world record twice

Interesting how they keep the plates on the cars they wreck. I guess at some point there will be someone watching who says "That was my car!"

I want to see this redone with a smoother curvature constant radius ramp and a weighted car. A much faster car. No downforce, just pure mass and horsepower. With a long enough runway starting with a corner, reaching 350kph should be doable. I want a smoother ramp to take bounce out and lift off at maximum compression of the springs. Heavy springs. Oh and a landing zone that is not raised above the appproach :-)

There was actually an person in that?!

landed right on his gas tank........

smooth

Whats his name?

Woody Harrelson is a crazy stunt driver.

I can tell you from experience how DISTURBINGLY quiet it is up there once you leave the ramp. lol. Until Touch Down! .. A 1977 FORD Maverick, a quiet country road and the desire to fly. Long story sjort. Mission accomplished!! 314 feet from launch to land, All were impressed,, Except Caledon OPP. A record unbroken for 40 years

Guy in the caravan?

Proud owner of a BMW 😀

No spectators?

rip e34

Did the grandmother sleeping in the trailer, survive..

Wait til he is older this guy will feel the pain later on in life 😁😁😁😁

i actually got kinda sad when the caravan got blown to bits :(

Why bmw e34 :(

If he drank a Red Bull first, he would have jumped much farther.

i can only imagine how a broke car guy to whom that car is worth it's weight in gold be feeling after seeing this😂😂

I know a good joke: Fifth Gear.

rip driver

What the hell that ramp isn't safe

Everyone on about the bmw, I’m more heartbroken by the Peugeot 309 in the pile :( and to a lesser degree the 4th gen starlet

yeliz

I love e34s. I have one myself. This hurts me :(

honey this might get a tad bumby.....

*круто!*

1 person is a caravan

I see this everyday on American highways.

a man has to be sick to do something like that...

who's that knucklehead sleeping in the caravan?

so, this is not Top Gear ??? I'm leavin now ....

wow, 2004 you recorded 2016 you published, 12 YR DIFF!?!?!?!?!?!?! :0

Love bmw

I wonder how much they paid him

Don't fret , all BMW's end up like this from daily use. I felt worse for the classic camper!

no

what a pitty

didn't top gear aka the more successful and funnier show do this as well? Im not sure who copied who but i think top gear did it in a volvo estate

I like the video.

Niceee i got a car jump fail video must see

Nothing to be proud of Russ. Fifty yards ! I just stabbed my brian. I think I'll check under the hood.
