Truck jumps 83 feet over a speeding F1 car

A 16-tonne transporter truck jumped 83 feet over a speeding F1 car in a record-breaking stunt. Both vehicles raced side by side, reaching speeds of up to 70mph before the death-defying jump. Hollywood stuntman Mike Ryan drove the truck and trailer over the jump at Bentwaters Park in Suffolk. The height that Mr Ryan reached with the truck was a new world record, which makes the achievement even more impressive. Guinness measured the distance from where the back of the truck touched down - although the front actually landed at 137ft and seven inches. As the truck smashed down into the ground, debris and smoke flew out of the bottom as the car raced off safely into the distance. Experienced stuntman Mr Ivanov has driven cars in both James Bond and Bourne films.
