Record-Breaking 332-Ft Jump In A Truck
And it wasn't off a cliff!
Team Hot Wheels just set the world record for furthest jump in a car/truck during the opening festivities before the Indianapolis 500 over the weekend with a distance of 332-feet, easily clearing (!!!11) the previous record of 303-feet set in 2009 and completely f***ing shattering my own personal best of "over a curb and into a creek". Not to brag, but I did catch a frog waiting for the tow-truck.
Hit the jump for the jump(!!!!!11) going down.
