How can she hang on at the speed it takes to get that front end up and still hang on when it comes back down? Crazy, unless its photoshopped?
If you consider the drastically altered wheel base of the car (plus the possibility of it being counter balanced) I'd imagine the front end comes up with very little effort. But I was wondering the same thing, what happens to her when the front end drops. I don't see anything for her to hold on to in case the front end bounces once or twice.
