I thought this would be impossible until I saw it. |

| I thought for sure he'd end up slamming into the car. Pretty impressive. Don't think I'll be trying it though. |

| I was hoping it would be one of those stunts where the guy runs towards a moving car and jumps over it that way, still quite impressive though |

| Notice you don’t see the far side of the car as he runs up. The old cynic in me thinks there's a mini-trampoline hiding on the other side. |

i don't reckon, he'd have to do a little step/jump on to the trampoline, but it doesn't look like he does, he just seems to have legs of elastic  |

While I'm not sure about the mini tramp, I have a feeling tha tthere is something more then meets the eye. It's amazing what you can do with filming, the stunts they pull in movies. I can make it look like I'm being hit by a car going about 50 miles per hour and roll over the top and be on the other side just fine. It's easy to do. So I'm pretty sure this is a trick. |

I'm not sure it's a trick, but it could be. If you think of the highjump world records and watch people playing basketball, etc., there's some amazing feats out there. The guy looks pretty well built and tall, too, so he could easily be an athlete who's larking around on a night out.
It kinda reminds me of a martial arts guy who I had a massive crush on about a year ago called Joe Eigo, who was just amazing with the physical things he could do. I'll post a clip of him in a seperate thread, actually, cos he's cool! |

| I'm with the trampoline conspiracy. I'd like to see it from the other side of the car. |

Watching it a bit closer again and I agree totally. Not necessarily a tramp there but since they never show it from more then one angle it's not easy for me to believe. I think it's a trick. |
