According to the text on YouTube with this video (click on "Replay" on the FTE version to get there):
WATCH THIS!! Truck Jumping Snow Bank 2010 - Scotty broke his back on this jump. He had to get 2 TITANIUM RODS and 8 SCREWS afterward in surgery. Scotty was airborne about 25ft! Crazy times in the now destroyed 4x4 Ford-F150. He expected to make an almost full recovery.

You are never borrowing any of my vehicles. However, that was a really good video to show how tough those Ford vans are. My neighbor and I have kicked around the idea of that to a thrown together vehicle.
I used to know a guy whos parents owned a salvage yard when were in Jr. High.We had a Nissan Sentra that was cut in half right behind the front seats(no back wheels). With a little help from the yard hands we rigged up a fuel cell for it and drove it around like that.It was hard to see over the dash due to the crazy angle we were sitting at, but , we managed. We took it out on the main roads once or twice(just for like a blk or two b/c we were scared we wouldnt be able to get it back). You should have seen the looks we got from people on the road .
