She falls off, assuming and gets run over because I can't seem to think the car can stop that fast. 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.

90 million dollars secured for the electric flying taxi lilium jet

Looking like they are doing this without the Coanda effect.

Maybe some Coanda effect by drawing/sucking air over the wing in lieu of pushing air over the top wing surface?

How did the F-104's razor-thin wing produce enough lift for takeoff and landing? Blown flaps. From a fantastic website of unofficial aircraft study guides called Airplanedriver.net:

I don't know the answer, but maybe it's a static photo? I think it was a photoshoot for a car magazine.
