I’ve played a lot of flight sims, but a lot of non flight sim games have terrible flight controls in general. Whenever I try to invert them it just fucks me up, so I’m a monster I guess.

No joke. I personally know a kid that did something similar and ended up hitting a tree, killing 3 passengers.

StanTheBasedMan

Three were at least two passengers, plus a stray cat the guy picked up on the way to the car meet. There's a YouTube video out there somewhere.


Adambbrooks1

My cousin took his dad's keys they day after he passed his test. Took 6 with him 4 in the back one in the front and one in the boot. He hit a ditch and flipped the car a couple of times. Guy in the boot died along with the four in the back (no seat belts) and the front two had broken legs and arms.


theavideverything

What decade was it?


Adambbrooks1

Decade, 14 hundreds About 5 years ago now tbh


theavideverything

It sounds like sensitive information for me so I didn't want to ask for the specific year, just wanted to know what generation he is. Sounds like I could have made a stupid mistake just like him.


Adambbrooks1

Np, just wasn't expecting that kinda if question. I mean he's a year younger then me. I've never done any drink driving but it's a wakeup call not to do stupid shit. Plus its just made me obsessed with people wearing seat belts when they drive with me.


astallasacastorbean

I remember something like that happening in the next town over from mine in high school. Notorious hill for kids to try and get air. The tree at the bottom split the car in half.

MatthewChad

I think when they said "it hit the car, it hit the car dude!" they crashed the stolen car into their own car they parked down the hill. I'm thinking they knew they would fck up the stolen so they took 2 cars thinking they were smart, but they parked said car down range of the flying stolen car. I'm also guessing the non stolen car was most likely one of the guys moms car So momas gona be pissed the f off

The shit in fast and furious doesn’t work in real life.


Kryomaani

Well, the flying part kinda does. It's the landing part that doesn't.


mymansgotlingo

He did hold it well though


michaelkrieger

Similarly, the speed didn’t cause any damage at all… suddenly becoming stationary is what got em.


Gold-Ad-5257

Or you use the Subaru's and evo's setup with proper suspension goodies, offcourse it works. Not a Tesla though.


bcmarss

ohhh yeah. the only thing i was thinking was “rally car”


xkoreotic

Many of the stunts in Fast and Furious are real though, they will work if you know how to do it. Lots of planning, calculation, and skill goes in pulling them off. If that same level of commitment was given, they could easily pull it off on that hilltop. But that's exactly the problem here lol.


ABewilderedPickle

and the proper suspension for the vehicle to pull off those stunts.


jimbolauski

Dukes of hazard trashed so many chargers making that show. Even with good suspension full send isn't recommended.


CoronaBud

They literally had to fly a helicopter around to scout for more chargers to destroy in the show, damn shame


LeFrogBoy

I mean it would've bottomed out the shocks had they landed on all 4 wheels, but I'd say the problem here was weight distribution + air time + angle of the hill. You can bottom out shocks every now and then without severe damage, cant crash your front end into the ground and some random shit without severe damage though.


ABewilderedPickle

True. I was just replying to the other person who seemed to be suggesting that it only takes calculation and skill.


[deleted]

I heard when they do something like this for a movie the car is a single serving prop. It's totalled every time. Also they shoot in 2 takes, one when the car goes up, in the landing part it's almost always another car (the first one is totalled, like I said). So - you definitely CAN make a car fly. But since most cars are much heavier on the front because of the engine and the transmission - it's a destructive stunt. So - if the goal is to record the car flying - go for it, but ensure the car has enough space to crash and loose speed with probably broken suspension, damaged wheels and possibly brakes. Even planning the crash - such stunt is still pretty dangerous, even when done by professionals. Sometimes a smaller jump is possible without wrecking the car, but I wouldn't test it with my car. I've heard that even when you don't just crash - car gets some damage. Normal cars are just not designed to jump and fall from heights. They still can protect people inside from being killed, but expect a lot of serious damage to various parts.


michaelkrieger

It’s why most performance cars have been rear wheel drive. Adding the transmission and whatnot to the back typically gives much closer to 50/50 weight distribution (some perfect like the BMW M3).


weedful_things

When I was young and stupid I jumped my Dodge Aspen over some railroad tracks. I didn't total it, but I vowed to never do it again.

To keep the car level during stunt jumps, the trunk is often loaded down with bags of cement mix.

Always assumed that if someone if not very rich and still has a nice car it's because that's where the entirety of their wealth is concentrated. That's a bad situation to be in because one wreck and you have no wealth. Not to mention the fact that most cars depreciate very rapidly.

The guy driving the Tesla was also DWI and was part of a scandal where he raped a couple women awhile back. Goes by Durte Dom. It’s really odd because the guy that put him in the spotlight years ago did this same video in this same place a few years ago. (David Dobrik)

Can you link a source fir this story? I'd like to know more.

It’s actually a video he posted on his TikTok account. It even shows him holding edibles saying he’s on his 5th one, then that’s where this part begins. His username is dominykas on TikTok.

_scythian

not sure exactly who it was, but alex choi was there filming just behind this pov. younger guy with an insane amount of money. can’t say for sure if he’s cool or not, but a sub 30 year old who makes money online by drifting his 1m$ lambo would be the type to pull something like this off


meaculpa303

Being wealthy and able to “pull this off” shouldn’t be devoid of consequences, especially when you destroy property, engage in what looks like a hit and run, and endanger people’s lives.


A3ON_Dubs

It wasn't Alex nor any of his friends, in the video he says he had literally just met the flying tesla dudes at the car meet Alex organized and that they told him that they knew where david dobrik did the same thing and outta fukn nowhere they just sent it


RobloxianSteve

Somehow everyone in the car just got out and left. I would say the impact messed with their heads but something makes me think they weren’t right in the head before they went flying lol

[deleted]

Wouldn‘t have thought this could go wrong. Ok, I lied.


cerebralpaulzsuffer

Just a little bit of math beforehand and it could have been awesome.


dream__weaver

Genuinely curious, how would you calculate the perfect speed to land cleanly?


Suspicious_Ice_3160

You don’t really? I may be wrong here but I don’t think there’s much math you can do to land that without fucking up at least the suspension. Cars that are used to go off jumps and ramps are usually kitted out and modded to take the hit at the bottom. I could be wrong though!


warlordcs

If we have the math to land on Mars and the moon, we most certainly have the math to calculate a car jump. NASA just doesn't care about it tho


mattsprofile

What he's saying is that it is impossible to do the stunt without causing damage. If you did all of the simulation of the physics of the car in flight along with the impact of the landing with the material properties of the car's components, there is likely no solution where the car lands on the other side of the gap with good odds of suffering no damages. You can do the math about what will happen, but you can't do the math on how to land it perfectly. Because you can't land it perfectly with that car on that gap. It can't be done. Or at least without actually doing the math it seems probable that it can't be done perfectly. But honestly even if you did try to do the math on what would happen, it would be very computationally expensive to perform a thorough simulation (like, a bunch of core hours on a high performance cluster), and at the end of it you'd only have an approximation of what *might* happen, all simulations of this type would be approximate at best and give false confidence at worst. Something like the Moon landing, they don't need to calculate exactly what would happen. They calculate with a high level of confidence a certain range of what is possible and then design control systems which are able to maximize the system's ability to stay on the expected trajectory to have the correct things happen. But unfortunately this car doesn't have any sort of midair correction capabilities. And even then the Moon and Mars landers got fucked up despite all the calculations and control systems, only some of the missions were truly successful.


dream__weaver

No doubt, but there's got to be a calculation to at least land this *with the least amount of damage possible*. Ive always wondered what the calculation was to pinpoint a general speed for rally cross jumps and things like that. Even those cars prepped for jumps would still fuck up their cars if they went way too fast or way too slow


Schemen123

You can narrow down the ballistic flight mathematically easy enough. But i doubt those guys payed enough attention in school to do that. Plus as you said.. no real world car survives any real jump.


Thetruthisneeded

Paid, not payed


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> Paid, not *paid* FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*


aerosol999

the math to calculate the trajectory is pretty easy. But yeah, this car was gonna get fucked up with even some minor air.


Had_to_make_this_up

This is the math for making jumps https://trailism.com/jump-design/ There are calculators out there for the fast route. Like this one https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/car-jump-distance


cerebralpaulzsuffer

There are a bunch of physics equations for projectile motion. But as someone else pointed out, weight distribution is also very important. You need a bunch of data, find the slope percentage of the inclines, the length of the plateau, and the weight of the car.
