Johnny laughed & laughed since he knew he wasn't going to be in the truck after he told the driver to hit the jump at 80 mph..... Holy Chit That Hurt!

I'm sure the driver is still sedated and is needing more morphine before he'll agree to do an interview with us.

has to be close to the record height. I think it was currently held by Vaughn Gittin jr.'s test drive.]

Vaughn Gittin Jr.'s test drive looks like it's about 4', given that the tries are close to 3'.

You could park a Raptor underneath the "new record" jump...even if it were a tabletop. I thought I read that the total drop was 22' on this, and am inclined to believe it. He cleared the whole transition. That truck doesn't even touch down within 20' (horizontally) of the bottom of that still.

Hell, it's so insane that my reflex-reaction when I see that still is "that's shopped." :lolnono:

When I bought my Raptor the salesman said you could jump one of these trucks of the top of this building. I laughed and said ya right, he looked at me and said no I'm serious!

That's when you say, "Show me, and I'll buy one at full sticker plus $10K markup if there's no damage afterwards!"
