    Default Isuzu Gemini Commercial form the 80s (best commercial ever :|)

    http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...85030664621355

    Some pretty crazy stuff lol, some of it will make you say wtf.. I tell you what though, those drivers have some serious skill

    EDIT: They should do this for the VE Commercials, if they could do this sort of thing still (land boats now)

    That's wicked! I wonder how many cars they wrecked filming that?

    That bit where they jump onto the boat in the middle of that river is sick, although I noticed they don't show what happened on the other side...

    Nice find darkcold...

    One of my mates had one of those old Suzuki Handivans for a while - you know the real tiny vans. It was a heap of shit and we'd all drive it and do stupid stuff in it. Anyway, if you were cruising along at about 60 and then jammed the brakes on as hard as you could, it would actually stand up on its nose, and lift the back wheels up in the air! That was our party trick for a while.

    ...not like in that video though, I know what you mean, it looks fake.

    They could have slammed it in reverse... Or rigged something up under the back wheels.

    also, those jumps looked a bit fake too. They almost looked like plastic shells hanging on a line.

    Tee hee! It's amazing what some stunt drivers and some special effects can do with an average car...
