 Amazing use for a 4x4 - Injection Doc
Very clever, is that just CGi'd ? i would of thought the weight of the plane would of sunk the Nissan to the floor, even with the lift from the wings !
as a guide line a 737 can weigh around 77560 kg (171000 lb) up to 225000Ibs and nose wheel take approx 10% of the air craft weight as long as it doesn't do a wheel barrow landing.
So my reckoning was that it would of sunk the nissan ?
Oh and I do know its not a 737, just using some rough weight s

Clearly faked. In one shot the plane has a very sharp shadow and the truck has none.

Yeah Thats what I thought & I don't think the Nissan would of reached landing speed of 135 160 kts LOL

If only it was real it would be fab.

Yes, watching it again more closely, I think its a clever piece of digital manipulation. Vey well done though!

The lousy acting of all those interviewed didn't add any credibility. Amusing though.

Clearly got the idea from that Thunderbirds episode (film?) where the new airliner lands on the back of 3 vehicles which have been unloaded by TB2.

>> the new airliner lands on the back of 3 vehicles

...but the nose slips off the front one IIRC; disaster only just averted.

In the Nissan advert it said it was fictionalised and you're not to attempt this.

The characters are a little less wooden in the Thunderbirds clip, so I'm more inclined to believe that one.

Smells like an advert for Nissan.

Witnesses too hammy, look like struggling actors.

Fun though!

It was/is an advert - if you Google it. Nonsense...
