Jamie and Adam are not satisfied with the two semis not pancaking a compact and fusing together...so they go to New Mexico to get a rocket to smash into a car at 650 mph. -YT

Sorry, but no seatbelt, airbag, HANS restraint, or insta-foam is going to save you if your car is struck by two rocket sleds.

I think they overshot the mark a bit.

I thought this was very awesome, but it was highly flawed from a pancaking point of view. They should have made the impact wall strong enough to absorb the full impact without moving or exploding like in the footage. Now it turned into an explosion instead of a pure crushing. I want to see them do it again with a very strong wall

I think having the booster stage hit a couple seconds later as well was a bit much...

Was that Buster's head I saw in the wreckage? Would you seriously bother putting a mannequin in a test like that?

They just needed a little more baking soda in that pancake recipe, then it woulda been fluffier.

Seems that this video had a rocket-booster of its own! Incredibly shot right to the top of the first page!

I had a VW Bug that could accelerate like that.

You don't know how hard it was to get the rockets attached to the bumper.

Of course. For dramatic impact.

Pancaking...? I think that is more like desintegrating...

I just got around to watching the episode yesterday (recorded on my DVR). That was one of the best episodes yet, I have a feeling this is going to be a great season.

The high speed footage looks like the car just liquefies.

I love how in the high-speed footage it crumples the car like paper. The rocket ram just "slides" through it with no resistance whatsoever from the car.

Right after Adam says, "Wow!" ... that facial expression had me cracking up. What a great season opener!
