Some dudes hooning a black Ford Raptor on some jumping grounds misjudge the velocity necessary to complete a jump. In a classic display of “Hey y’all, watch this!” the Raptor is launched high into the air, and the inevitable landing sounds painful. There’s some very entertaining HD video, and some NSFW language to top it off.
Make the jump. Seriously, make the jump to see the clip.

The landing is rough enough to set off the airbags, and I’m sure the frame isn’t too straight after that either. But what wouldn’t you do for entertainment? We’re waiting for the Air Raptor special edition.

That idiot doesn't deserve to own a Raptor.
That's why it's called Rednecks With Paychecks
🙁
That emoted, I had to watch the jump at least 5 times.
RRRRRRrrrrrrr CRUNCH!!!!!
RRRRRRrrrrrrr CRUNCH!!!!!
Anyway, what $kaycog said.
I'm sure someone is gonna be pissed that Ford won't cover the repairs for that under warranty.
How to change your Raptor in to a Craptor…
Don't worry, $kaycog, he doesn't, anymore! 😉
Wow. That was spectacular. . .
. . .ly stupid.
Another guy with a lot of money who failed to understand the purpose of a Raptor.
It's set up for desert running, not motocross.
Somebody just watched the first season of Top Gear USA.
I am so freakin' jealous.
Notice the fluids all over the impact spot? Think that's from the truck or the passengers?
Did like 1/10th once and nearly pooed myself.

Jeep was no worse for it, though…
The accord was, in fact, much worse for it.

as a man who has jumped a car maybe 3 feet in the air.
i bet the fluids on the ground were from him
its a positively uplifting, and very scary experience.
I sent my old '93 Audi 100cs Quattro airborne when I hit a set of train tracks at about 140-160km/h
I remember my thought process:
"Someone told me the tracks were rough, I resolved to float over them at high speed"
What they didn't tell me was that there was a lip right before the tracks…
Amazingly, nothing more than a wheel bearing was lost. One of the scariest moments of my life.
They need to have their heads examined. What idiot does that to a truck.
Now how does he make payments on it….. oh yeah, Carfax wouldn't show it………….
what a dumby,
but then I watched it a few times to see if the landing was oil and fluids, or just plowed up dirt.
Still not sure.

Also note how all the airbags went off, and the front suspension developed some nice aggressive camber. 'Meriga.
Straightenin' the curves,
Flattenin' the hills.
Someday the mountain might get 'em but the law never will.
Do the 4-ways on the Raptor come on automatically with SRS deployment?
Possibly, but I'm pretty sure the tailgate isn't supposed to come loose.
haha! that was epic! that raptor is toast!
