A Little Too Close To The Jet Truck Semi

[HardTomOn]

i am a CONtractor in utah that lost my license. my house on the hill in draper forclosed. i keep changing my company name to run from creditors, and my mommy (secretary) also warns me. am i building "integrity" with you??????? HT--utah.

[heatman74]

Thats fucking crazy. I dunno about the flame out of the stacks, probably just for show. But that afterburner is sick!!!

[TheCoolYellowMambo]

how come it like hardly moved

[Aspro4]

@TheCoolYellowMambo : It seems that the driver is holding down the brake so that the truck doesn't move away too early before he shows a bunch of fire effects to the spectators.

[punkmanzz]

tabarnack de caliss :D

[TheAKJoker907]

god damn!!!!

[ShawnZup]

Skip to 1:20 if you are inpatient

[TheRahulMahatme]

making this illegal might be the biggest blunder mankind can think of after the whole weed episode that we still are stuck in

[CODnoobandnailer]

I told optimus prime not to eat all those burritos but nooooooo. he doesnt listen. thats why he blew up

[CODnoobandnailer]

I told optimus prime not to eat all those burritos but nooooooo. he doesnt listen

[krott5333]

you gotta be an idiot to stand that close to a jet engine without at least one set of ear protection, let alone two.

[moonlightradiorain]

Why shouldn't it be legal?

[Jbb0s]

i guess 25 people's jet engine died out.

[pr1zonerofwar]

HOLY HELL THAT SOUNDS LIKE A NUKE WENT OFF!!!!!!!!!!

[hoplite46]

hahaha the camera got melted

[cooksta3276]

What exactly are they spraying out to catch fire? Is it pressurized kerosene or something like that?

[justinmoweRacer]

@cooksta3276 its actually jet fuel, its being shot outta the afterburner and the air speed from the jet engine just proppels the flame out the end

[cooksta3276]

I like the guy just pointing his cell camera somewhere in the general direction of the truck, while his face is buried in his armpit. LoL

[samthemusicman17]

fuck nascar.. drag fans are the best.! this guy is about to get his face melted off to get a shot of that beast..! great vid..!!

[sstroh08]

@samthemusicman17 i love nascar and i love drag racing, but nothing can compare to the power of drag cars.

[11bikerboy11]

let's enjoy this moment while it lasts because i got a sad feeling one day internal combustion engines will be a thing of the past....everything will be green and electric good for the environment but I'm gonna miss the sound of an American V-8 or a jet engine or a Ferrari V-12 there are far worse things that polluted the planet in this 2 min video than this one Jet Truck.. ..

[foxeni]

I LOVE watching the jet trucks!! When they tell you to stay back though, they mean it.

Bob Motz and his truck blew the windows out of a track side building in Norwalk one time.

[rogandest]

optumus prime is about to unleash hell !!!!!!!!!!

[ipdaily6]

man that kent shockley is the man no doubt about it, and they run the jet motors on diesel for safety, basically if they have a fuel line break or something it wont burn to the ground or explode injuring people so when they built it they set it up to run diesel instead of jet fuel, would love to see this machine, have seen jet cars but this is the grand daddy of them all.....

[ww2footage]

fuck , this car can conquer China alone

[TheAsphaltDragon]

Hiroshima?

[LordReaper117]

that's funny all you see is the flash and the roar

[iwillkillyou808]

wow that was sick, looked like a tactical nuke went off at the end like the rest of u all saying lol cool vid

[mifan93]

@iwillkillyou808

LOL

[mikethenascarfan]

louder than a top fuel dragster?

[sstroh08]

@mikethenascarfan no its not louder then that but when them burners go off feels like God is reaching down and smacking you and at the same time you have to turn away because it is so hot lol at the dragstrip i was at where it run the police blocked off a road about 500 ft behind it and then is fired up and burned down a big plywood sign and burned off the water hose for the burnout boxes and then it burned off a overhead powerline and shut down half the track and then run in the 7s at 250 mph

[mikethenascarfan]

@sstroh08 so its a top fuel dragster on meth? lol

[Alphaace14]

honestly who needs 3 jet engines that burns through 120 gallons of jet fuel every second, funny thing is that truck needs new brakes now too, and the smokestacks are just propane flames but I agree with above comments this shouldn't be legal at all

[mikethenascarfan]

@Alphaace14 how about you shut the fuck up and enjoy it

[Alphaace14]

@mikethenascarfan I did enjoy it, FYI and BTW I was just stating the obvious like normal... sometimes, and I was just saying... I mean really

[sstroh08]

@Alphaace14 its people like u that are ruining this country...

[sportsdude26]

[RuFiOPx]

[Phitzgood]

[mirlin235]

[MAYDAYMAYDAY5]

id like to take this for a ride around my neighbourhood

[chad142]

NASA is gonna be pissed LOL

[thatusmmaguy]

I want one one of these.

[hansmayer4]

it´s waste of fuel not more!!!!

[theDecievedLegacy]

@hansmayer4 they have to warm up the engines before they make a run. thats all this is.

[Tasera783]

This has got to be one of the coolest things I have ever seen.

[Chevy9corvette2009]

@ Jezza575 lol thats what i thought

[Forkmeister]

Would be a drag to be behind this guy at a red light... hehe

[SebSepTV]

Shiiit

[MASON091]

what a waste of fuel...this is pointless.

[Jake45499]

@MASON091 no its not pointless, its just 4 show

[ArchanioI]

nonsense

[Sakaki709]

GOD DAMN KERSPLOSION

[owen214]

those rockets were poorly designed, they should've generated more thrust

[bubby729]

rockets? try jet engines. and there's 3 of them. and as far as your not enough thrust comment, can you do the 1/4 in 6 seconds from a dead stop? in a 3 axle semi? thought not..

[Jezza575]

wow at 1:34 i thought the truck blew up

[jpachon]

What a stupid demonstration of unnecesarily burning fuel.

[DRA60NF1R3]

whats so special about that?? i drive one of those to school.

[WolfmanAF1]

Gay

[iezuru]

c00l

[hobbenaro]

Lol the smoke looks like snow, and the fire from the back an atomic bomb : )

[haggis240]

one way to loose your eyebrows

[TheoneGodfather]

Man that is AWSOME.

[bulldog32220]

that would be good for the tailgaters

[bikercc]

@bulldog32220 exactly!!!!!!

[ethen24]

When it started shooting smoke at (1:31) I was like : "WTF? That was it?" and then, at (1:37) I said "HOLY SHIT! "

[slurpy911]

theres goes 1000 dollars of jet fuel lol

[bubby729]

this truck uses diesel fuel, not jet. and for the entire run, including showoff's during "warmup", it uses around 100~125 gallons.

[slurpy911]

shutup u stupid hillbilly

[XoXoVENOMoXoX]

@slurpy911 well worth the money : )

[Secondlifecreator]

@slurpy911

Actually kent uses other fuel to makes the flames...the jet is just the lighter for that. The did that ot add to the show i read that somewere how that truck was buildup on this site i believe. Really aweosme piece of work !

[ShawnZup]

it was verry hot (im the one in cammo)

[nUaSvAy]

Super Nova at 1:39 FTW!

[dev832]

luckly all the hair on the back of your head still existed lol

[travisg130]

looks like something from Survival Research Labratories

[PukuTheBear]

Just a bit hot? :-)

FYI: It helps to get down low.

[neomuttley]

We have Saturn V ignition ;-)...

[gragounet]

lol that was funny

[FlyinRaptorJesus]

imagin if he was driving that down the road and got pulled over by a cop... just turn on the after burners. cops toasted.

[MegaBatistafan123]

only in america... how stupid can you be? a jet engine in a freightliner... pollution for no reason...

[jsmaye]

We do it for entertainment - we don't have firing squads, public hangings, or monthly coups like in your shabby little freedom-hating country.

[1C7Z3H5X]

hey fuckstain,its americans that made it so you dont have to be in prison or have someone wearing your skin for decoration,so wise up

[ERRATICTV]

Love this truck! I posted a video of a guy almost getting burnt to a crisp when Bob was at Kilkare a while back! haha

[vagdestructorman420]

everyone that commented this is a douche bag..besides me ofcourse.

[climbingpoolplayer]

Dude thats SICK

[DJVADO17]

1:37 i'm like WUT THA FUCK it's like it exploded

[victorf171]

WTF!!!!!!!!

[bmxshowtime]

[sixspeed2]

Goodness me. I want one of those engines in the back of my station wagon. hell yeah babeh!

[juniorracer1995]

WHAT THE HELLS UP WITH THE DESCRIPTION?@!?!?!?!?!?! this shouldnt be legal my asshole biotch

[RattlingMurdock]

Have you ever been within 100 feet of a jet engine??? I'm sure many of those people went home with headaches.

[RoudyRaccoon]

Point?

[RattlingMurdock]

Point Reyes? No I've never been, seems nice though...

[556210]

ummmm "dv6910us"do you know that cows and there farts produce more green house gases than all of the american carsgee little neat bit of info there huh maybe you should thin kb4 you open your mouth or even become a little bit more educated on the subject

[dv6910us]

this is one of the reasons of pollution

[scythelord]

big deal. no one cares.

[dv6910us]

well thre are people that dont want theyr children to suffer or theyr childrens childrens

[guvnahead84]

smokey this is flamethrower do you copy over!

[crzydood17]

man they should remake smokey and the bandit but instead of a normal 18 wheeler he should have this and we can probably get rid of the bandit too because well purge some jet fuel and light the cops on fire!

[maddogtannen1966]

With all that smoke I bet its a dropped ring............

[ramtin818]

all that for nothing? waiste of my fucking life

[whitehoodedracism]

fedex owns an autobahn truck?

[DieselMan731]

thats sweet

[harissok]

1)copy&paste

3)Hold your breath

4)look at your hands

[stiffmajster1]

only in america

[jtofstreet]

fagget.

[shlem12]

[ProspeedCTR]

DAYMN!!! I thought the truck blew up. Thats crazy and very badass!!

[raymondrayban]

NO NOT ARMAGEDDON,,.......its just like standing under the space shuttle when it fires up................VAPORISED...­........

[crbassassin]

Armageddon!!!

[SOGGYmilktoast]

The SOUND on this clip is like going home again! Sweet!

[megadaniel25]

Lolz i just voted good comment on all da comments.

AWSOME Video, but i think the "Explosion" was edited in there

[breakbeatfanatik]

No, it looks that way tho but it's the cam cus the brightness is way too high for a camcorder to record, it would look dif in daylight too (and with human eyes ofcourse)

[Greno]

It looked like a nuke went off and blew up everything

[Glockman2619]

the end made it look llike everyone died hahaha

[maxcas27]

agreed haha

[zyle0c]

haha blew up at 1:36

[dngrsdave]

thats fuckin crazy lol

[natureboy99]

I've stood there before for this truck! WTF do you mean too close? It's beautiful there!

[Motorakid]

Break out the marshmallows Kids!

[tranzamws6]

omg like right at the very very end it looks like the fire got to the people filming

[eldo500]

I thought it blew up at 1:33. Also, I wonder if everyone who was there at the time is now deaf.

[BferD]

pardon?!

[xJMACORONIX]

u live in maryalndf?

[frederickt]

Sweet. Although I thought you were roasted intitially, damn. Hot ish.

[MichalSoram]

What is this good for?? I mean, u cant use it in normal life, then why even build such a moster??

[ronthecyborg]

For the entertainment. It's human nature to do things that entertain them. Not everything needs a direct purpose.

Who knows? 1,000 years from now this may be the main way of trucks getting around. ;)

[juxbeing]

what an big anti lag! lmao!

[BBCMicrocomputer]

bet shell fucking love this for its fuel consumption

[lovesheidi]

thats hot....LOL couldnt help it

[Bandicoot803]

The perfect mobile flame thrower. Lucky the truck hasn't suffered a meltdown! Or the rear tires...

[ramotzsoccer]

this truck isnt even close to being as good as bob motz's jet truck. shockely pushes it full out across the finish line and it still only goes 119mph where bob goes 216.1mph and he doesnt push it as hard. also, bob's truck rocks back and forth because of the torque. his doesnt. and lastly the flam from bob's truck makes shockely's look like a baby. so yeahh i love bob motz and think he puts on a much better show!

[MDSerles]

Think about it bright one. This truck is much heavier. This truck doesn't rock due to the center of gravity due to 3 engines. A lot of differences to look at!

[mariuszake]

fuck USA THE SMOKE DESTROY THE WORLD THE END of the world IS CLOSE

[flamesfreak]

what the hell is wrong with u,ur an eco freak?

[tbird350]

Semi brakes are some of the most powerfull brakes in the world. And they still cant hold back that much power... scary... I WANT ONE!!!!!!!!!!!

[MatoroX]

Sweet tooth found his new icecream truck...

[Alup62893]

LOL! Thats me right in front of you! Hahahaha! With the phone!

[winston132132]

driving that is a death wish

[d00d00dumb87]

THAT IS F******* bad ass!!!!!! if i won the lottery that will be my daily driver for sure!

[lily05041967]

this is sick....... i love that fire and jets on the truck. greets ricardo:)

[drowningpoolv2]

It's Shockwave?

[Elvenoak]

no..does it look likt shockwave?

[drowningpoolv2]

I think that it's painted with another color! (Sorry for my eng)

[Elvenoak]

dude..theres tons of semi jet trucks...its not shockwave (and your english was fine)

[semiguy409]

it is shockwave

[cpetit3]

i bet that was a hot time right there! the truck runs with 3 j-34 jet engines puting out 36,000 hp. they say it runs on diesel. i'm not sure if they run it on actual jet fuel. it's one awsome beast and i've seen it personally. i'm looking forward to seeing this truck again one day.

[handgun1]

I seen it a couple weeks ago at the Dayton air show and then 2 more weeks before that at Night of Fire at Kilkare Draway.Me my Bro and My Father was not even 5 feet from it so it felt like we were close to 150Degree Flames and me and my brother thought we was going to get one heck of a tan and me and my father was sweating our butts off

[PkColossal]

only in america...:D how loud is that thing :O I don't think we will see anything like this in Europe :D

[j00n4s89]

here is the reason for global warming....

[samibieda123]

yea. i missed that. but i heard it was great. i usualy go & watch the races 4 night under fire. but i was busy 4 last years. so yea. ima b there this year. CANT WAIT!!

♥~SAM~♥

[sunnyatscot]

not good for the environment though

[macci33]

omg havyest after burn ive ever seen..

[Shindins24]

oh god i thought the truck was exploding lol

[simsonmotorader]

that THING is scary !~

[markmarshall39]

just how close was that, looked to close for comfort to me!

[roadwolf2]

that isnt shockwave just repainted is it

[bubby729]

you are correct. owner Les Shockly and his son Kent, who is the pilot, made their first appearance with the new sponsor and paint scheme at the 2007 night under fire at Norwalk Ohio's Summit Motorsports Speedway (formerly known as Norwalk Drag Raceway).

He was the replacement for Bob Motz who just 3 and a half months prior suffered horrendous burns from an accident at an exhibition.

[xbox360rox67]

no it didnt blow up

[ps3kicks360ass]

try 650 gallons of jet fuel

[bubby729]

Please know what your talking about before you post. remember: it's better to allow people to think your an idiot than to make a post and remove all doubt... Body: Peterbilt Powerplant: 3 Pratt & Whitney J-34-48's Chassis: 4130 Chromemoly Thrust: 18,000 lbs. Horsepower: 36,000 @ Speed of Sound Wheelbase: 260 in. Weight: 7,000 lbs. Fuel: Diesel, 120 gals. per run Maximum Speed: 376 mph Driver: Kent Shockley

[ps3kicks360ass]

i don't see now it runs on plan diesel but that was just an over raided cause the flames are so huge for so long

[ps3kicks360ass]

thats a jet motor correct me if im wrong.. my dad has an unlimted and its got jet motors and it doesn;t take diesel so i don't see how its possiable

[cjt00000]

Jet engines run on jet fuel, which is basically a more refined form of standard diesel.
