I mean, what the fuck am I going to do? I'm no engine surgeon.
Dammit Jim, I’m only a country mechanic!
Thought for sure it was gonna flip over on the dismount.
I figured they would rip off the front bumper trying to stick the landing.
Me too, but would be messed up if wasn't staged. Rather drive up rock wall then stop and help.
They could be an expert driver but a shitty mechanic.
Plus, kickoff is in 10 minutes, and they've got the beer in the trunk.
Hoped
Poor tires, and probably other stuff too. But flawless and impressive execution!
Let's see those u-joints
Is that a u-phenism?
That poor frame...
Yeah but worth it not to have to help that guy out.
Hey, for all we know he showed up to help his buddy and had to get around him to go get a part.
Pft, KITT could do that and wouldn't even need a wall.
God I was hoping so much that it would flip over at the very end.
I'm more impressed that it's a Buick. I thought that brand was dead.
I love how they approach and defiantly pull the side mirror in. "Not helping you today, buddy."
The lengths I go to to avoid social interactions
Something looks kind of off when he folds in the side mirror... it seems to disappear entirely in an instant.
Otherwise, the video looks real enough... Who knows.
EDIT: on further review, the camera shifts right to an angle where you can no longer see the side of the car... and you can still barely catch a glimpse of the mirror a second or two later. False alarm.
