What you have never drove your car out of a flying plane? Raced a tank? Been chased by a submarine crashing through the polar ice?
Bro do you even actually drive your car?

I sometimes wonder how many fatalities the Fast and Furious franchise has caused since some seem to think it is an instructional video.
Well according to FnF franchise, one can cheat death from any fatal impact by landing on top of a car!

The best parts are the close up shots of the shifting....

Where they used to show some shifter + clutch action closeups in the earlier films,

They now teach you over 1000 variations of shifting to drive and pressing the gas.

Touche.

I was driving on a backroad in mid-traffic once, following traffic at the normal speed limit. In one of the blind turns that slopes a genius decided to go into the other lane to pass traffic, nearly hitting us head on. There was nowhere for me to turn to avoid since it's a small road with rails on either side. Thankfully, he barely avoided us but I couldn't help but think "this guy either has a serious death wish or zero survival instincts."
