fire a rocket sled into a car and totaly VAPORIZE IT!

It doesnt even look real!



Just checkout Adams "O face" when he has a total nerdgasm. They should just make a new show called "Destroying **** With A Rocket Sled" and I would watch it every week!

they blow up a lot of stuff behind the hills next to our vehicle barn at the dublin sheriffs office.
you'll hear them sometimes say "we are at the alameda county bomb range."

It would be even more awesome if that chick who killed Sandra Cantu was sitting in the driver's seat... My two cents..

That is absolutely amazing! They should put it in "Timewarp" to see it in super slow-mo.

i love, in the slo-mo, how the chassis is being hit by the rocket sled, the chassis barely moves while it is being 'melted' by the rocket sled...

complete warpage, ENGAGE!

Pretty awesome! The acceleration on the second stage was unreal, but like Jamie said it didn't really achieve the goal of the experiment. Now two rocket sleds pointed toward each other ...then we got fusion

The carnage reminds me of the Delorean in Back to the Future III after it got demolished by the train.

I'm still waiting to see the episode they filmed outside of Esparto when they blow off 500lbs. of ammonium nitrate.
