Did you all see this video yet? This car sure takes a licking. I could never do this to my car.

Probably a dynamite (one may not suffice).

I saw this on MSN, and thought about posting it until I saw you beat me too it.

These are tough, and apparently extraordinarily safe, cars!

I think that part made me laugh the most!

Poor car, man! Has anyone ever seen the one where a couple of ding-a-lings take all of the oil out of an 850's engine and run it for what feels like forever at high RPMS until it blows?

Not seeing the wisdom of continuing to take roof hits on a damaged roof. He's lucky the roof didn't take another hit over his head!
