Can't decide between a Ford Mondeo and a Citroen 2CV? Here's a helpful video to help you decide.
For those of you with slow connections, this is a clip from a European television show. They helpfully demonstrate how much thrust a 747 produces at full power (58,000 lbs. per engine, to be precise) by driving two cars perpendicularly across the runway about 50 yards behind the engines.
Let me just say I'd rather not be in either one of them. They both get pitched down the runway rather forcefully. In fact, the host says that they can't have the 747 stay at full power for more than about 20 seconds, or it will start to rip up the runway.
Just a little something for your Gee Whiz File. Nice use of the "Lord of the Rings" soundtrack, too, incidentally.
