Hi All.
Apparently, the driver was ex-Special Forces in South Africa. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAvqDF3Wujc |

The eyes on the passenger are about to pop out of his head.

The comments below the clip are largely an exercise in idiocy - don’t recommend wasting your eyes or brain cells on them! I also watched the video without sound - it was still gripping.
Only thing that “threw” me at the end was the driver didn’t shut his 2IC in the van, but hopped out leaving the door open. Presumably they were safe but I’d expected the other fellow to immediately slide across into the driver’s seat in case they needed to hoof it again. |

The driver is Ex-Recce Squadron, those guys were well known for taking care of business, I bet the guys he was telling old mate to call were also from same unit.

can,t the tires be shot out? yeah they messed with the wrong guy.
if it was jason stratham (ridiculous pommy actor) or steve segal driving, they would have spun the car into a 360, all the while shooting the bad guys as the car spins around. |

Driver did keep pretty cool, but how cool and steady was the guy sitting on the dash holding the camera filming the whole thing too.

Nope, that’s a bit of old movie magic, shooting out a moving tyre.
Bit like putting a round into a fuel tank and the car exploding every time.

I was expecting some big **** off truck like you see here but looks like a good ole tried and true 70 series Land Cruiser.
Probably could still take it for a camping trip. A couple of bullets in the windows and a munted bumper aint gonna stop them though looks like a bit of a coolant leak ![]() |

I was assuming when he said "gun" that it would be a revolver or similar.
Next second a massive machine gun comes out of the middle.....just wow |
