It’s a good sign at an auto dealership when the cars are flying off the shelves.

Florida’s a hell of a drug.

The first shot cuts off way too soon. I imagine his arms were flying up in a victory pose as he screamed, “Sick jump, bro!”

How the h-e-double-hockey-sticks does a person get “dizzy” enough to jam on the accelerator and manage that kind of feat?

No, it really. If Evel jumped a dozen cars they would have been lined up end to end. To call this jumping a dozen does a disservice to the real stunt drivers like Evel.

A Navigator finally did something good.

Less problematic reboot of The Dukes of Hazzard? I’m here for it.

But it’s Florida, so rest assured it’s going to be at least a little problematic.

I’d bet 10 bucks our guy’s a complete novice. Who wouldn’t be impressed?

People have been saying we’d have flying cars by 2020. It’s nice to see the prediction come true.

Florida leads the nation by far in “news of the weird” items. I always thought that’s because Florida, with the extreme wealth inequity created by its mixture of snowbirds and immigrants, is simultaneously in the United States and the Third World. I still think that’s part of the story, but it turns out that Florida is also an outlier in its public-disclosure laws, requiring authorities to release a vast swath of information collected in the course of any investigation (that doesn’t involve billionaire NFL-team owners). That may be beneficial to the public, and may diminish the privacy of people involved in these incidents, but it’s definitely a huge win for YouTube.
