Top Gear - Upington
Mon, Feb 14th 2011, 11:03
During early December 2010, Helimedia shot the aerial footage for the Top Gear episode where a Porsche 911 was loosing a race with an old VW Beetle! This took place on a big salt pan, north of Upington, in the Northern Cape.
Below is a short description on how this was achieved.
"The idea that the car would reach terminal velocity after being dropped from a mile high in the air, whereas Hammond could accelerate to cover the mile faster on the ground.
However, the South African salt flat the stunt was carried out on slowed his progress and he lost the race - though arguably the Beetle lost as it was smashed to smithereens."
Also have a look at the video clip on You Tube:
