This guy was killed after his car flew 200 feet through the air from ground level into the second story of a house:

I didn't know Honda's could reach that altitude (2nd floor).

I didn't know Honda's could reach 100mph (especially on a resisdential street)

Maybe it had a bodykit to make it go faster

A few years ago a teenager in his Honda Prelude got killed in our subdivision. He managed to get up to around 115-120 according to a friend who investigated the so called accident and drove into the woods at the end of the cul-de-sac. The car hit the curb and jumped 10-15 feet up into the air and went into the woods. Trees looked as if someone had cut them with a chainsaw--they were cut off perfectly clean. This happened in the middle of the night and no one found the car for a few days. The woods are very thick and you couldn't notice the trees unless you really looked. The car flew about 50 to 60 yards descending through the trees and finally hit a very large oak tree--the driver wasn't wearing a seatbelt and part of him was ejected. This was classified as an accident, the parents said the kid didn't know the road was a dead end. He had been racing through the neighborhood for a long time so many thought he was high, drunk, or this was a suicide--no one knew for sure.

So guys yes a Honda can fly, in fact any car can fly if it has enough velocity behind it. This was the worst accident the State Police investigator that I spoke to had ever seen (he had been on the force for over 30 yrs).

Site of accident

1: Honda Accord, speeding at 100 mph, goes over 3-foot-high berm.

2: Car goes up to 20 feet airborne over lawn of apartment complex.

3: Car plows through brick wall of second-floor apartment

One would think a berm would give you protection from crazy drivers.

Was this flight made before the "official rollout" at Oshkosh?

Probably had a mouthfull of Mentos & Diet Coke urging his buddies to "watch this"...
