Are you feeling down? Get up. I mean, physically up. As in, the direction away from the ground. You should jump an incredibly large vehicle into the air. Pretend your huge mud truck is a rocketship and fly! Roam free about the air! Nothing can get you down when you’re up!

Last year, Bryce Menzies set a new world record for the longest off-road truck jump using a modified 900-horsepower Pro2 truck. The resulting 379.4-foot jump not only smashed the old record—it also looked ridiculously cool. Now you can poke around the footage of that jump captured with a 360-degree camera.

The craziest jump in rally is a big statement. You have the famous jumps in Finland. El Brinco in Mexico. WRC Sweden has an award named ‘Colin’s Crest’ for the longest jump on SS16. These are massive jumps, but they aren’t the largest or the craziest.

The Lincoln Town Car is a great classic brougham of style and grace. Who knew this magnificent boat of a vehicle could fly so well?

I always get nervous driving over drawbridges. One family vacationing at the Jersey shore had to think fast and jump their Toyota over a drawbridge because it started to raise while they were on it.

Watch this video and you’ll understand why people lose their minds over Rally Finland. I could tell you it’s the fastest event on the World Rally Championship calendar, but that wouldn’t explain it in the way that a car flying sideways through the air set up for another flat out corner does.

The consistently fastest event in the World Rally Championship is Rally Finland, beloved as much for its huge speeds as for its car-launching crests and jumps. Here’s the gnarliest one of the weekend.

If you’re going to fly a flag on a sand car, you really ought to make that sand car fly. I’m not sure this is a jump as much as it is a launch into low-earth orbit.

There are few greater joys slightly off of this world than jumping a car. It’s an eerie silence once you’re in the air, suddenly devoid of the noise of your tires on the ground, or dirt and rocks getting flung up onto your car. For a second, you’re a spaceship pilot, floating above the sadness and woe of this world.

A Minnesota man survived an insane crash that reportedly involved his car driving off an embankment, flying over 210 feet of open water, coming to a stop on ice, and making it to a nearby home around 3:30 a.m. The local police chief politely called this a “miracle.”

I don’t think “lose hood over crest” was in the notes, you guys.

Every year, the World Rally Championship’s trip to Sweden is a real treat. This year, it’s back to its usual Hoth-like form, covered in glorious snow and ice that allows the cars’ studded tires to reach ludicrous speeds on the stages. Let’s gaze in awe at the jumps from this year’s Rally Sweden—including the mega-jump…

Doing a double backflip on anything is pretty hard. Doing it with a big hulking 450-pound snowmobile is downright insane. After many, many attempts by snowmobile riders around the world, Swedish rider Daniel Bodin finally stuck the landing on one of the hardest snowmobile tricks in history.

Is there anything as magical as these delicate hops performed by a Ford Festiva? This little crapcan puts entire performances of the Nutcracker to shame.

We’ve all heard “don’t try this at home” many, many times. Usually, the first thing you consider is trying it at home. Here’s 17 clips of people jumping their cars that proves, yes, you can try it at home if you’re willing to risk it all for a cool slow motion shot.

Stock pickup trucks are not strong enough to survive jumps. You know it, I know it, but some folks just need to learn these things for themselves. That’s when you just hope somebody’s standing around with a camera!

Rallycross is chaos in race form. No body panel is sacred—including the ones on the top of the car. This year’s Red Bull Global Rallycross finale at the Port of Los Angeles featured a car straight-up landing on top of another car while locked in intense battle.

What do you do with a 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer that’s bound for the crusher? You do everything within your power to destroy it further, that’s what. Blast over rocks. Jump it. Run into a tree. Shoot, get out some explosives and blow it up. The Lancer will just laugh at your feeble human attempts to destroy it.

We’ve already written about how Red Bull has been modifying Bryce Menzies’ 900 horsepower Pro2 truck to handle a world record jump attempt. But now, a couple days ago, Menzies put all those modifications to the test. Here’s how it went.
