//:: Pastrana's New Year stunt

Travis Pastrana possibly holds the record of the most broken bones from crashes and accidents from his favorite motor sports, stunts or sometimes in when his mind kicks in for some action.

For his latest BIG stunt. He took his World Rally car Subaru Impreza and launched it 269-feet across water in Long Beach. As you may imagine, it was not easy.

Because a car lacks the jet turbines, fuselages, wings and stuff, they don't generally fly well. Pastrana does not believe this and he tries everything to get his Scooby off the ground, through the air smoothly, and back down cleanly.

Which doesn't always work. Skip to 1:30 on the video and you'll notice his car nosedive into planet Earth and roll across the dirt like tumbleweed. After that little incident, he reaches a conclusion.

"If I just pull the handbrake, the front end will come right up", he says. In mid-air!

"Errr... Righ!" hahaha
