Its one thing going for a world record jump on a motorbike where you can use your weight, the brakes and accelerator to keep the bike pointing where you want. These guys want to jump over 300 foot in a truck though, where you basically have to just floor it then hold on and hope for the best because when you are in the air you are just a passenger.
You can turn the wheel as much as you want but nothing is gonna happen. The stunt is being performed at the Indianapolis 500 on May 29 and will be interesting to see how it turns out.
