"He should have braked instead of hitting the gas, it would have brought the rear end down."
"Hitting the brakes causes the nose to dip and rear end to rise."
I'd say it would not make a difference. The only way he could sorta make it would be to load weight in the back, although I'm not sure how the rear suspension would handle it. He has a lot of weight in the front of the truck (probably a diesel engine to make things worse) and nothing in the back. Never had a chance to make it. |

@Tekas
Hitting the brakes has a massive effect on a car's weight distribution. Ordinarily, when stunt drivers train for jumps even lifting off from the throttle moments before jumping can mean the difference between making a safe landing and flipping the car. |

That isn't a pick-up truck. I really have no idea how they made that mistake. It looks like a delivery car.

I have always wanted to do that when I see those random little mounds on the side of the road. Now that I know exactly what will happen, I don't have to do it. <_< |

Just because you have a Dixie horn doesn't mean you can jump your truck like General Lee you Bo Duke wannabe!
General Lee couldn't jump like General Lee. They broke many cars making that series. |

I think the most epic episode of Dukes of Hazzard was the one called "Tainted Water". Luke drinks water from a pond that has been tainted with poison and it makes him mean. Classic. |
