music needs to be more dramatic!!

Heh, the only reason it bounced that way was because of the spin on the launcher. Cool!

Thanks that was cool as all hell.

So, the driver of the truck gets a helmet, but the idiot sitting in the bed of the truck doesn't bother with one?

Doesn't the driver feel like such a wuss now?

brilliant brilliant brilliant

wow, this is great

Awesome!

I love how the driver laid a scratch to get up to speed.

Did I hear a Matrix Reloaded soundtrack piece?

Who would not pay to have strong, resourceful, feline protectors like those in the neighborhood.....Probl'y have a little fish alter for them each day as well......

By the way, back when Spike TV was dubbing this show into English and broadcasting it, they translated "Trivia no Izumi" as "Hey! Spring of Trivia"... not quite sure where they got the "Hey!" from....

I love all the drama and tension for a truck that's going about 63 mph... hahahah

It looks like a milk car too. EXCITEMENT.

Go, little video, kill the Paris Hilton crap!

Upvote for the Bourne Supremacy and Matrix music.

LOL. Got enough track guys? I'm surprised he didn't run out of gas before he got it up to 100km/h.

!! I love this

"Heh, the only reason it bounced that way was because of the spin on the launcher. Cool!"

Probably more to do with the wind from the back of the truck, sucking the ball forward.

i don't get it. how is this "awesome"? i am staring at 70 votes in disbelief. i had to ffwd it to get to the disappointing ending, then i wished i hadn't bothered.

(i might upvote for gluonium's comment about the music, though.)

[redacted]

same for me. what's awesome about it? that could be expected by a 5th grader. if you're travelling with 100km/h and crashing into a car also travelling at 100km/h you two crash into one another at 200km/h. Of course this also works the other way round. it's just basic physics, nothing impressive.

The was totally dramatic! I was in suspense the whole time O_o

Just awesome (I skipped to the end ) Love the just 'stopping' in mid air...

even "basic" physics can be an impressive thing... I liked the way the ball fall fell straight down

I'm sorry, but isn't 100kmh only like 60 or 70 mph? did they really need an entire racetrack to get up to speed?

it COULD have been an impressive demo, some people don't know shit about physics so yeah it's interesting, but it was a lame video.

Physics lesson: next time somebody tells you they are a safe driver and they never go above 50, remind them that a drunk dude doing 50 in the opposite direction could really mess up their calculations.

They should have shown how a ball that is dropped straight down and seemingly harmless.. is actually going 100kph forward..

Are these the same folks who brought us the giant rubber band?

I love how the driver needs a helmet, but the guy in the back somehow does not.

I think 10 balls one after the other would have been more impressive...


...the ball bounced because of spin, suction of the truck would have made it move before it hit the ground...

This video and this country are both top-shelf. Someone should set it to some rockabilly type track.
That would be epic.

eaglepowers, you missed one - on the final straight before the ball is released, the camera's watching the speedometer crawl towards 100km/h... and there's the music from 'Speed' in the background! (I'm a soundtrack geek, I spot these things.)

Technically, the choice of music is more than justified - the bus in 'Speed' only had to stay above a measly 50mph (80kph).

How do we know this is the same video? Someone should totally resubmit it and mark this one dead.

That is the new way to do things.

It's the same

Like he said, it's the same video. And the way I fixed it is still allowed, joe. >> ^Duckman33:

It's the same

Looks like the TV show Hell's Kitchen uses this music. But only for really intense scenes, like when someone serves raw beef wellington.

Resubmitting a dead video is not the way to do it. It will then be a dupe and need to be dupeoffed. Dead videos are not free game, only discarded or killed videos can be submitted without being dupes. (Obviously you can submit something that's already on here, but it will be considered a dupe.)

This is beyond retarded.

The music is from some Michael Bay movie, either Bad Boys or The Rock.
