Feb 10th? That means I missed it?
Or is it on tonight?
I have to watch that

It was funny to read all the flaming and doubt that revolved around the pictures when they started floating around

I know...
People just had their doubts and had to get all riled up about it.
Someone went far enough to throw in some kinematics to prove that it is entirely possible, at an approach speed of only 55-60mph. Of course that doesn't take into account wind resistance... but that would be minimal.

Its amazing how well the car took the impact...
I wonder just how much damage that did... My jaw dropped when I saw the passenger harness start to float.
