Hot Wheels Truck Jump
This truck’s “Yellow Driver” did what most kids dream about. On what looked like a Hot Wheel’s track come to life, a “Hot Wheels” Truck the record for the furthest jump.
You gotta love the fan’s excitement and the the way he came off the ramp!
I’m trying to wrap my head around the need for the driver’s anonymity. I suppose it shouldn’t matter so much, it was clearly a Hot Wheels sponsored event. I would just like to know the chap that had the guts to do it.
Video after the cut…
Update… someone kindly informed me the driver’s name… Tanner Foust. He’s a professional stunt driver. So CLEARLY he was made to do this!
The record was previously 301 feet and this new jump broke it at 375 feet. He only had to reach 75 MPH to get there. Speed is never the problem with doing a jump, though… is it?
It’s the landing that seems to be the difficult part.
