Remember when Kobe Bryant "jumped over" an Aston Martin->ke13 back in 2008? We all know that the Black Mamba didn't actually do it. Neither did stunt man Damion Poitier when he was enlisted by Sports Science to do the same thing in 2009. So it's safe to say that jumping over a car is an impossible and dangerous task. Or is it?

Norwegian Niklas Strandbraten and his friends, electronic music duo Broiler, decided to give the old jumping-over-a-car stunt a little try. This time, the stunt didn't involve an Aston Martin Vantage->ke4410 or a Lamborghini Gallardo->ke375. Instead, an Audi R8->ke1440 was used, which, according to owner and Broiler member Mikkel Christiansen, is almost four inches taller than a Gallardo. Not only that, Strandbraten was tasked to jump over the R8 as the German supercar->ke177 was moving at a speed of 150 km/h (93 mph). Pretty freakin' stupid and dangerous, right?

The video->ke278 shows that Strandbraten was able to clear the R8, but I don't really know if its legitimate or not. I've seen too many "fake jumps" over the years, including Kobe's, that has turned me forever skeptical on the stunt. Heck, if Sports Science couldn't pull it off, then you know how difficult that stunt is.

If Strandbraten really did jump over it, then congratulations to him. It takes a lot of guts and mental faculties to be able to pull that of. But if he didn't, chalk this one up as yet another fake jump for the archives.
