The Ford Raptor 90-Foot Send at Rednecks with Paychecks

Redneck DaredevilsBest send-it moment

At the Rednecks with Paychecks Off-Road Park in Saint Jo, Texas, someone decided that a $60,000-plus Ford Raptor needed to experience flight. Hitting the dirt ramp at approximately 60 miles per hour, the truck launched an estimated 90 feet through the air before slamming back to earth hard enough to deploy every airbag in the cab simultaneously. The driver and passenger were hauled out by on-site ambulance -- the only emergency service that matters at an event where "hold my beer" is not a joke but a lifestyle philosophy. Remarkably, the truck landed on all four wheels and the frame held together, which says as much about Ford's engineering as it does about the driver's poor decision-making. The jump was captured on video and spread across social media, becoming one of the most-shared clips from Rednecks with Paychecks -- an event series that has become ground zero for the kind of vehicular chaos that makes insurance adjusters wake up in cold sweats. This is the rare send-it moment where the send was bigger than anyone expected, including the person who sent it.

One of the longest documented stock-body pickup truck jumps at an amateur off-road event -- approximately 90 feet through the air with all airbags deployed on landing.
