Looks like the car was chained down for the explosives testing - as it didn't seem to have any reaction motions. That would tend to increase the effective work of the explosion.
Next time I plan to cross a drug lord, I know how I'll be rolling. #rollsroycephantom
this thing could drive through a mine field, thats awesome, but also incredibly pointless unless you live in lawlass war-torn country or have a ton of people who want you killed #rollsroycephantom
@theycallmeham: A wealthy person in any country with a huge income gap (think Latin America, parts of Asia, USA) or lots of mafia (Italy...) would be interested in one of these.
The rich don't quite get it. Shrink the income gap and people won't hate you. Then you can drive whatever you want. #rollsroycephantom
I'd just like to know how it looks on the inside; Because while the armoring may have blocked the projectiles, the kinetic energy hitting the structure would still do real damage to the occupants. #rollsroycephantom
@Franzouse: Once, at work, a guy asked for a ride to the emergency room because he accidentally cut his nuts off. He was in obvious pain when he asked, but there didn't seem to be any blood stains. We took his word for it though, and got him a ride.
The guy who drove him to the hospital said that when the ER staff removed his pants, there was blood everywhere. Apparently, the stain-resistant treatment on the pants did an excellent job of keeping the mess from showing.
So, yeah, the damage on the inside might not be apparent by looking at the outside. #rollsroycephantom
@Alfisted: It happened when I worked for a previous employer.
This guy and another co-worker were otherwise alone in a next-door building used for long-term storage. While they were waiting for a truck to arrive, the co-worker bet him a dollar or two that he couldn't climb a roof support pole all the way to the top. He was able to reach the goal, then slid down, fireman-style.
Unfortunately, on the way up, he neglected to notice the pole had a hook for hanging a fire extinguisher, but he sure found it on the way down. It was high enough above inseam level that he apparently hit it with a good amount of momentum. The hook punctured his pants and his family jewels.
As I recall, the lack of visible blood caused him to wait for several minutes to report the injury, until he realized the pain was not going to subside. He was worried he was going to get fired for horseplay. Ultimately the boss decided he created his own punishment, and let him slide, so to speak. #rollsroycephantom

The woodwork in a Rolls is meticulously well done, if not especially difficult work for a competent woodworker. With the appropriate jigs and other equipment, I could do as well.
But being a cheap bastard, I'd leave off the expensive and difficult walnut burl, and do mine in a nice sugar maple.
'ello again, I'm Bruce Bruceington with NatGeo back again, this time submerged in a stolen submarine, deep beneath the Arctic circle. I'm here seeking to find one of the rare giants, the Royceous Rollerous. These huge beasts reside deep under the water, yet because of their high consumption, they must emerge quite often. Reciently they have been interbreed with a similar genii, the Bavarian Moterii Werkous. This has led to longer lifespan and a less dieseases, however the older Royceous Rollerous better maintained their classic shape and persona. So before they're all gone, I'm here to track down the remainder of the species.
The mating with the Bavarian Moterii Werkous have led to some rather questionable offspring, which some belive to have the persona of old, however most still long for the older Royceous.
Oh, avast, lookout that window there. Behold the mighty flanks of the Roycerous. They consume mostly petrolum products and algee, however have been known to devour a fish or two.
And after this paid announcement by the ideal coffee table book, "Wert and Camaro: A love for eternity," in bookstores everywhere.
