Some of the craziest driving I've seen :)

I wonder how many times he had to run over the motorbike rider to get the shot...

None. He used a new one for each take. :lol:

Now if you want to know how many temporary Americans he used up... count the tyre tracks.

I just want to know how they closed half a city for this.

1. He's out there proving he can do better.
2. He tried #1 but drove over a cliff.
3. He doesn't have an internet connection from his hospital bed
4. He's too busy making great photos to notice this thread.

Have you ever noticed that Suren and Ken Block have never been seen in the same room together? And if you remove 3 letters from Ken Block, and change the remaining letters, you get "Suren"? Spooky.
