Actually whats so great about ken block? All this has been done before by various stunt drivers. Only difference is, he uses a rally car on an dusty airfield. Notice the amount of rubber left on the road that shows how many times of practice to get it right?
No doubt it does look good to mortals like us. For me whats more impressive was that old top gear with those nuts doing what they call 'parkur' (not sure of the spelling). Those guys jumping over the roof tops was impressive. One wrong calculation and there is no roll cage, body work, seat belts etc to help.
cheers

I'm always amazed at the control Ken Block has of his car! Great footage, especially the jump at the end with the C-130 in the background!!
