Dear fellow Grand Theft Auto players. Do you guys remember that mission where you put a man on the hood of a car and drive him around town to scare him into "spilling the beans"?
Well they do that in Russia too, only the guy doesn't have the "luxury" of being tied down to the hood. Want proof?
We found this video of a guy traveling on the hood of a Ford Focus. He seems to be hanging with every fiber of his body as the car speeds along on a highway at speeds of about 90 km/h.
So yeah, real life is scarier than video games. Careful what you wish for!
This Russian incident is likely the result of your typical endurance fraud. The guy on the hood probably tried to fake being hit by the Focus sedan, but he got a joyride he never expected. Money really doesn't bring people happiness if it comes at the price of your life.
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
