How is it that, after jumping the curb fast enough to sail up onto that roof, the car just stopped?

all i know is that the owner of this car is one lucky bastard for not losing his car!

I guess he was going after the Grand Theft Auto III Unique Stunt Bonus...

I think u get mad kudos for that in Gotham, I like how those are shitty shacks and theres a 575 marenello stuck on it

Unique Stunt Bonus $1

It looks like this car was being parked and somehow when going to the backyard managed to jump that small curb. You can see where the sheet metal has folded on the roof where exactly it jumped. There is also very little damage to the front air scoop. This was a slow speed crash.

If you look at the angle of where the car is at rest you can see exactly where it went in that first picture. The curb is low enough for it to climb. The damage to the front end is consistent with hitting a curb. If it would have climbed the higher part the car would have had more severe damage to the front grille as well as damage to the hood from impact. The driver is lucky they didn't flip over to the right. Fact being this is a Ferrari 550 Maranello the short stopping distance is not surprising.

not so shitty if they can support a weight of a 575 marenello

good point which makes this pics seem like even more fake casue a 575 landing on the roof will have at least the force of double its weight and i doubt my room could survive that
