Craziest stunt ever

"Those magnificent madmen in their neat Japanese flying cars!"

Extreme Automobile Sport


First, some shock value:
"If you haven't seen a Qashqai Car Stunt - you don't know what adrenaline is."

So first, go watch the videos at this site or the offical QashQai flash site.

Come back amazed, and wonder if this madness is for real, or not. After all, another death-defying urban sport is "sweeping" Europe - "Parkour", or extreme free-running with jumps and Spiderman feats beyond comprehension:

If they can do that, can't they do it with automobiles? It only seems like a logical progression... To drive the car up the half pipe into the air, vaulting over the apartment buildings:

or to drive up the wall of shipping containers, and skid across it, as though it were a lawn:

oh, by the way, there was a similar car stunt in the recent Russian movie "Day Watch", where the girl launches her sports car off a ramp, and drives sideways at top speed along the parabolic side of an enormous glass hotel building:
