Hot Wheels Pulls World Record Corkscrew Jump

Apparently, Hot Wheels has a testing facility - we found this out from the adjacent clip, which shows their crew pulling quite a stunt, setting a new world record for a corkscrew jump.
Hot Wheels brought the toys that have kept us busy and maybe cost some of us a girlfriends over the years, to real life, Yes, they actually built a full-scale ramp at the aforementioned facility (they don’t mention its location, however, put Brent Fletcher in a buggy and asked him to jump.

The result? 92 feet of air time and not any kind of air time, but with quite a bit of rotation! You can see it happening in the clip above, but, of course, not even this seems to compare to playing with toy cars yourself, sicne you don't get to control what's happening.
