Should I?

It would be blasphemy not to

- This ramps straight into a cemetery, though, so kinda a one stop shop, no?
  
  You think of everything, don't you, smart boy?
  
  That's convenient
  
  I suppose there are worse ways to go. Have fun!
- I don't think your story has the intended effect. All you're saying is that it was loud and scary but no one got hurt. If I was a dumbass teenager that would probably make me want to do it even more.
  But yes, that would be incredibly stupid.

- Every once in awhile I'll see a very low hanging car carrier truck on the road, and I've always wanted to try just driving up onto it while they are still moving. I'm guessing you are the kind of person to tell me that's a bad idea too.
  
  Mythbusters did that once, and it worked just fine.
  
  Depends. Can you make it before anyone realizes what's going on?

you missed the stunt bonus..
- I felt that in my soul

Probably clear the STOP sign. If you're flying over it, you don't have to stop,right?
- Cops hate this one trick! The STOP sign clearly is out of its jurisdiction above the sign itself.
- Yeah I don't think the stop sign applies to airborne vehicles
  
  Yeah but light pole and tree sure do
  
  Technically true. I doubt planes stop for that stop sign after all.

you can do it, but only once :-)

How's the roll cage on your car?

If you aim for the stop sign you can hit the palm trees hit box and it bounces you over the fence into an out of bounds area, altho you do get instant 3 stars.

My intrusive thoughts go crazy when I see this.

Well that’s certainly one way of getting into the cemetery.

Do you want to get chased by Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane? Because that's how you get chased by Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane.

Here's what that looks like. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QxLdb77-Ic

- That happened where I used to live
  Absolutely insane
- Hold my beer!

There's no cone in front of it for a reason...

So right about here.
- That's freaky... Do you know that area, or are you pulling out EXIF or something else?
  
  It's a pseudo hobby of mine to attempt pin pointing a picture on google maps when enough information is visible in the picture/post context.
  In this instance, I saw the street cones have "City of Riverside" stenciled on them, and zooming in I can see the street sign in the background says "Fourteenth St".
  So a gmaps search of "City of Riverside cemetery fourteenth st" got me to the right city block. After that it was "cruising around" in street view to find this intersection. I further confirmed with a unique gravestone on the right, and a gate in the background.
  Finally, the exif info on this file looks like it's stripped/scrubbed, no geo info or other hints to give away location. I'm hoping Lemmy by default strips exif info on upload (I know it's a common practice for other social/image hosting apps).
  
  I think you should watch a video of rainbolt, he can find the region of an image shown for 0.1 seconds
- That's a bingo!

Is this Florida? In which case get a bag of bath salts first.
- It's Southern California. What up Riverside fam?

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah! Offspring intensifies

OMG, last week I was on the interstate as passenger behind one and recorded a brief video saying "Should we ramp it? Should we?..."
LOL, I haven't bothered uploading it yet, but I might later.
- Nah, we’re good man. Save the electrons.

Hit the nas
- Why are we hitting a New York area Rapper?
  
  No hitting or I'll tell mom.

They leave this lying around every once in a while, just so it's barely plausible when you see a convenient trailer like this in a movie. Some prop master left this here to tempt you, like the devil.

With a stolen car, yes.
- Or a rental car with the extra insurance package

14 hours later - how did it go?
- Car still stuck in the power lines
  
  the car wouldn't get any further than the second to last cone

Yes you should, but stop before the stop sign.

Send it!

Let us know how that works out for you. If you survive

Is that thing locked into that position? Or will it teeter forward as soon as you put the car’s weight on the front of it.

that's gotta be worth at least 5,000 points

YOLO!

Get those stunt points man!

Can't unseen burnout track.

Is that the freebird solo i hear?

There's an invisible power-up at the end of that ramp.

Do it!! We know from the Dukes that no matter how bent your car looks immediately after a jump, it'll just immediately straighten out and keep driving!!1!!

Turbo boost!
When I was a kid in the 80s watching knight rider I misheard and thought they said turbo bush, because there was a convenient bush in the way hiding the ramp each time.

That depends, are you currently in Florida?
- I see where you're going with this. Because if you're a snowbird you'll be able to fly back home off the ramp.
  Makes sense.

Do it

If you don't what are you even doing with your life?

That brings back some Midtown Madness memories!

Make sure to double tap the gas right before you hit it.
- Granny shifting not double-clutching like they should

“LETS LAUNCH OVER IT!”

"Do a barrel roll"

Only if you are listening to K-DST radio station.

Only 49 more and you have done all jumps in gta 5.

He'll yeah...
"blame it on the thunda!!!!"
Woosh!

At least if you fail, the cemetery is right there...

Only if you're driving the General Lee

Don't use your hero car for that. Use one of your lookalike spares.

You gotta turn on CHITTYCHITTYBANGBANG first. Get that busted stunt bonus.

Yes!

The intrusive thoughts are winning ...

I reckon you can jump straight over the fence into the cemetery.

Could you not?

Stop.

The temptation to run my DR650 off of this would be overwhelming.

It would be rude not to
