how does he get out?

details, details...

i can assure you... that car is the best fun you can possibly have driving.

The guys name is Russ Swift. This is from his official website:

"Russ Swift breaks his own Guinness World Record AGAIN Featured on BBC Record Breakers and Record Breakers Gold. In 1995 Russ Swift established a world record for "parallel parking". By using a hand-brake-turn the car was parked in a space between two other cars which was only 40cm longer than the car itself. Time taken was under 3 seconds. Russ first used this manoeuvre in the award winning Montego "Car Park" commercial in 1988. On 29th September 1998 Russ broke this record by parking in a space 35cm longer than the car using a Mini. The record was filmed for BBC Linfords (Christie) Record Breakers. On 17 April 1999 Russ again broke this record by parking in a space 34cm longer than the car again using a Mini Cooper. This record was filmed for Guinness World Records - A programme shown by London Weekend Television in June 99"

there was an american that did it with a full size car going at 90+ mph and he started a skid from over a 100' away.

OK, but can he do it driving a 1972 Cadillac ElDurado?

i love the random variety japanese shows where they have a panel of "ooh"-ing and "ahh" -ing Japaneses..

I've done it with a stretch Hummer that was strapped to a Saturn V rocket initially traveling at 6,000 mph. Fit it into a space just 3µm wider than the Hummer in 0.21 seconds.

I once rode a galloping camel through the eye of a needle. A bactrian camel!

In the words of Ace Ventura: "Like a glove!"

I imagine a lot of Asians would think that successful parallel parking is the most amazing thing they have ever seen, and have never actually witnessed.
