It could be fake. As in rob jumping. They never showed in car footage. Just a soft landing.

Jumping a car isn't hard really. The hard thing is knowing what speed to be going when you hit it. In a controlled environment like that you have all the time in the world to figure it all out. I know Ken uses a computer program to calculate things out then usually sends motox riders over it before the car ever gets near the jump. Basically they created optimal conditions for the jump to go well. In theory you could put someone of any age, driving ability, or mental state behind the wheel and as long as they followed the directions and hit the jump head on at the right speed the result would be similar every time. It's amusing how scientific you can make 2000lbs of metal flying through the air.

Still looks like a lot of fun though!

Rob Dyrdek is the man!!!!

He's alright. I've skated with him a couple times and my brother hung out with him a lot when he was younger, but he's kind of a jerk nowadays. His dad though...he's cool. When I worked at the skate shop, Gene would stop by every once in awhile and just talk to us guys there....cool doood. :tup:

My 60 year old Dad loves that show, he's the one who got me into it... He's allways telling me "Lets do work..." lol... That jump was pretty cool, must be fun to do all that stuff... As a former skater (poser but oh well), its cool to see the skate scenes....

 

[richy_21]

The bottle celebration was hilarious too!!!

 

[nctatman]

[sysfailur]

He got his g/f prego so he took on the responsibility of being a daddy. He chose to go his own separate way for now, but he said this wont be the last of BB

Driving that car would make my year. Lucky bastard. He actually didnt even do that bad driving it, IMO.

Awesome show, though Nitro Circus is slightly better.
