  • Reminds me of the video game called flatout

  • darn they ruined it. why have remote control when you could have me water skip. id do it for free at half the time they took to build it remotely controlled

  • 3:02 lol did that guy just call a pontiac fiero a supercar what is he smoking?

  • @kirk0respite Maybe he meant supercrap?

  • jessi fixing nitrous to a motor? sexy.

  • Why are the red ones harder than the green ones?

  • I need Jessi to "fix" my "car" lol

  • im so gona try this when i can drive

  • whats with the new talking guy? i just saw this on tv and it had the normal guy.

  • I used to skip cars.. then i took an arrow to the knee

  • @7Bdog95 I think you mean you took a dick to the ass.

  • @herochrisx I bet you know a lot about taking dicks to the ass don't you?

  • @7Bdog95 I learn from people the best: people that tell bad jokes. So you must be King.

  • Comment removed

  • 19 people were car manufacturers

  • 2:36

    

  • What inspired this myth?

  • But how deep was the water?

  • @ConfineSilences depth has nothing to do with it skipping across it.

  • the 17 bad votes is probably for the stupid narrators voice

  • 17 people have never ridden in a nitrous car while driving into water.

  • 17 dislikes from jealous bike owners who tried this and are STILL drying off! :)

  • @weewtrteert it's because its the UK one I think.

  • @Flamingnarwhals No snow top mountains or chemtrails over here, Its America :)

  • Out of curiosity, why aren't they using the show's regular announcer in this clip?

  • cheated

  • @manferot What are you saying they faked that? It's the LAW OF PHYSICS! No one can cheat that.

  • wish I had two of these cars, one to crap on, the other to cover it up with..

  • can your car do this?

  • There should be a scene like this in the next Fast and the Furious Movie

  • The narrator is stupid add on be it original or local version. The teams explain what they are going to do and why and then there's the live picture to tell the rest. Also it would be more interesting if the team members explained it while doing e.g the modifications. Also it is unnecessary to repeat everything every five minutes.

  • Check out how many chemtrails are in the sky above them!

  • I wish i had that in need for speed under cover

  • i just saw this video today lol

  • They used a Fiero on Topgear once.

  • NOT A FIERO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

  • the JESUS car. 8=====D

  • THIS CAR IS JESUS

  • that jessi is sexy

  • a friend came to visit and this morning i put myhtbusters on and he just thought it was a bunch of ifiots doing stupid things.....i had to explain that they were trained professionals with special effects backgrounds

  • Roads? Where we are going we don't need roads...

  • for those who just wanna see the car water skip, skip to 2:35

  • how can 15 people dislike this they skipped fucking car across water.

  • @grantsnake Those *16 People All Own Fieros

  • @grantsnake cuz they didn't get to watch the full episode?

  • fucking brits ackcent

  • @dontlike2bfedwith

    *fucking British accent. Retard.

  • @dontlike2bfedwith Shit you're bad at spelling.

  • @gordon5cc ya sorry cant spell 4 shit im better at math

  • I love how the car they're using is a Fiero SE, but the car they used in the sketch is a Fiero GT.

  • lol i had to go somewhere while watching this and now i can see the car skip THANKS YOUTUBE MUKA MUKA HMMM NO MEEESSTO HAPOO

  • the blonde is hotter than the red head thats normally on the show...

  • @yamy82xl Fuck you dirty redneck

  • @gordon5cc big tough guy aren't you?

  • @gordon5cc hahahahahaha

  • @yamy82xl  no i dont think so

  • I see all these people hilarious over this simple display of the laws of physics, yet this is only to be expected. A fast-moving object will not stop that easily, it's the same old mass, speed, friction thing as we've experienced on countless occasion. Thinking that this is somehow a miracle or something incredible is just stupid.

  • @amundb this makes you feel so smart doesnt it?

  • Comment removed

  • I don't need to FEEL smart, I just know that I'm not impressed merely by objects flying over water at high speed. Often, being impressed is caused by ignorance, lack of experience or lack of reasoning. As far as I'm concerned, you don't need to be smart to understand this, you just need to be smarter than stupid. And I do feel that I am, hence this explanation.

  • @amundb they smart and find it cool? and make money while doing so.

  • @ryukenhayabusa

    I agree that you gotta be kind of smart to make money. But the ones that you make money off of need not be smart at all. The more stupid people are, the easier it is to get inside their wallets. Just look at all those people who play the lottery.

  • @amundb it's a bit counterintuitive. A stone you skip on the lake doesn't have 4 wheels, an exhaust system and open engine bay on its bottom. So the fact that a car CAN skip on water does come as a surprise to most people

  • @k0namiman

    That is a good point, I agree. But these factors could be countered by adding more speed. I have skipped lots of rocks in my life, some of them not perfectly flat, others downright coarse, or even partially hollow.

    I think the fascination over this might also come from actually skipping something as large as a car. Consider a stone of the same size at that car. Even without the engine bay etc. skipping an object that large could qualify as impressive.

  • ok ... who needs bridges...

  • @gewoontimm i do... i have a truck.

  • @0123212345 i have a truck 2... ^^ 18 wheeler

  • @gewoontimm If you don't need front bumpers, that is. Haha :)

  • yea it's 3 feet deep

  • Poor, poor Fiero.  :(

  • ew.. who is the narrarating?

  • @shayorshayorshayor: Weird; not the same narrator as on Canadian TV, maybe it's UK?

  • @q1s3d45g6 yeah... this guy is nasty. i sweat i would hate this show if it was in north america. doesnt the american version have the same thing as canada

  • Cool video! I bet some Fiero owners are horrified about this one.

  • @jammer96 I know I am!!! :(

  • 30m water. how many mph/kmh the car was traveling and weight of car?

  • 30m water. how many mph/kmh the car was travelling and weight of car?

  • Hey that was a cool car it was like from back to the future sence doc had the remote controll like these guys :[ that was a awesome car...

  • awsome! man, you don't see a skipping car everyday, you know.

  • car Fiero cool  :)

  • beast

  • Wow amazing

  • woww!!!

  • lol

  • wth did they do the announcer?

  • @Schneebly06 hees da best

  • geeezzz that now looks tempting... then again... it could be a fail and i screw up my fiero... ok not tempted anymore i <3 meh car to much...

  • With water skis attached to a snow mobiles or do you mean the skis on there you moron they dont attach water skis

  • Why is the crocodile hunter narrating? I've Hydro planed my Fiero before, Fieros are just like gocarts they are so much fun to drive.

  • how deep is that puddle?

  • @BerserkN00b lol probs a foot :P

  • @BerserkN00b deep enough to sink a car

  • Lol, great idea for evading police for a car chase in a film.

  • do you think they know they do races like that in Iceland, and they did it on top gear, and you can do it with a snowmobile with waterskis attached? lol

  • @thirdlegUK Lol i was thinkiung just that.

  • @thirdlegUK top gear has done everything i love it !!!

  • nice song

    arcadegamezs. com

  • ttt

  • it looks like something from back to the future lol

  • retarded

  • fucing cunt off

  • "This is the go-baby-go wire"

    Don't ya just love educational channels?

  • @zenzombie72 Frankly I'd love to go-baby-go Jessi.

  • @MrMongolWolf fucking homosexual troll twat

  • whether the car skips depends on the depth of the water, was it a flat surface beneath the water and what speed was the car going at when it attempted to cross the pond.

  • @Aelliotb  yeah, it bounced of the floor, lol

  • @ilikebeertoo lol

  • oh jessi! you take the nitro right out of my tank and drive me wild doing so ;)

  • how deep was the water...?

  • @ReedoAce I think about 3 ft (app. 1 meter).

  • I think I need a "go baby go" wire for my mk4 vw polo

  • cool

  • COD 7 TRAILER ON MY ACCOUNT

  • that was epic!!

  • What a load of garbage - It just drove though a puddle

  • @ilikebeertoo i like how you think

    and by think

    i mean not think

  • @Kyle0ng  yeah! what ever that means

  • @ilikebeertoo it means if you think it just drove through a puddle

    then you weren't really thinking, :<

  • @Kyle0ng thanks for that

  • Wow, thats a gaint lake that, bet the wheels just hitthe bottom instead of the water. Still pretty cool though:D

  • I WANT TO TOUCH HER! LOL.

  • Interesting how the advertisement plays immediately but you have to wait for the video. Balls. (Go Mythbusters).

  • Why didnt they put a dude in it? Boring.

    And they just copied Scrapheap Challenge with the little animation on graph paper.

  • @WillP999 You logic is like saying ford copied mercedes by controlling a cars steering with a steering wheel.

  • Lake ? ..looked like a puddle to me.

  • very good question

  • how deeps this water tho?

  • impressive my friends

  • Where is this "Supercar" they speak of?

  • wow cool, thats freakings awesome, didnt think itd happen

  • shitty skipping car

  • I used to love that year MR2 bcuz to me it looked like the BTTF car. Now they're making it look more like it here.

  • @rocabear I suppose it's a better option than buying an actual DeLorean. Much better for a time machine I think. I personally like them because the guy who delivers me pizza drives one, I have fond memories.

  • @rocabear Although, having watched it again, I think it's a Pontiac Fiero.

  • wow i didnt think it was gona work lol

  • I was half expecting the car to skip like a child, galloping across the earth

    by impulsing its chassis against the ground in wee jumps that it moves

    like a kangaroo with very little ground friction.

    Can a car skip - not on water, but can it skip - an open question.

  • Now if only I could find that "go baby go!" wire on girls......sigh

  • @Typh0nMagi1 Yeah its s shame they don't keep the go baby go wire in the same place :-)

  • 200hp. Wow, what a supercar :l

  • thats not a supercar... thats a shitty car

  • i need to get one of those go-baby-go wires!!!

  • why are my youtube comments found in google search engine?

    i dont mind commenting on youtube videos.

    but i dont want my comments singled out for septerate viewing with no back round to them.

    why is youtube putting my comments into google search engine?

    my comments are related to videos.

    so why are they displayed in the manner they are on google search?

    youtube!?, you are a bunch of dirty bastards.

    why are you collecting and showing peoples personal details and habits.

    BASTARDS!!!

  • @TheRealBlackHair Didn't google buy YouTube? This would explain that bud.

  • who is the hot blonde gear head...drool.

  • referring to a Fiero as a 'supercar' = lol

  • I HATE the English narration on Mythbusters. They translate every single unit of measurement into metric, even ones that don't make any sense to anyone - yet they still have him saying all the weird Americanisms word for word from the original. I wish they'd just leave the normal American narration on it and give us a bit of credit for working out the conversions ourselves.

  • wow

  • Skip to 2:15 to see the interesting part...

  • Talk to the camera yo!

  • Is everyone forgetting that this is based what was done in a movie? They used roughly the same measurements for the lake, so for everyone saying they've done a half arsed job should probably go and watch the first part of this where they clearly explain whether or not this can be done in real life or if it is just simply "movie magic." And a lake isn't always a big body of water, if they had called that a pond you'd all be complaining of it being too big for a pond.

  • Lake its a fuckin man made puddle lmao

  • should of used european petrol/gas that would of given it an extra 70bhp with out the nos or risk of blowing it up

  • Now let's see it go across an actual lake.

  • that is awsome!

  • that is definately a puddle

    i'm fed up of mythbusters and their half assed attempts

    in the UK we had a similar program called Brainiac they did things properly and tested every possible way

    yes it was done with humour in mind and when richard hammond left after the crash it went downhill but it was still better than this

  • @ITW84 Alot of the things in Brainiac were pretty misleading though.

    I agree, with Richard Hammond it was awesome. But my science teacher explained everything they did. For example, in one "experiment" they tested what i think Francium does when reacting with H2O, when actually they just used some plastic explosive.

  • Kari is back

  • Kari Byrons havin a baby aint sheeee

  • it probably hit the bottom of the puddle

  • a ufo would skip much better than that...

  • mythbusters ftw, kari byron was much better, and hotter!

  • @spearnox1 I agree

    bring back Kari !!

  • WHAT!?? i cannot believe that worked!!!

  • yes they did it but it was not worth watching them yankee idiots - oh i cringed

  • how deep was that water?

  • cool
