It took 3 days, and over 600 takes to get it right. Also took over a week to set up. Once it worked, it never worked again.

Even though I have seen this several times, I am still amazed. I bet if they used FORD parts it would work every time!

The tires were weighted inside. They admit this. This is not a photochop. They did what it took to make it work.
