Kobe Jumps Over A Car Coming At Him

I'm sure it's fake but still an awesome commerical.  I bet D-Wade could hop a 16 wheeler. . .  :D\

Yeah.  When you are Kobe Bryant you don't have someone drive a car at you at 50 mph.

I bet Dom could jump it.  The hardest part would be timing it right.  I have no idea how you would time jumping a car coming straight at you.

How do you think they went about filming the commerical?  I think there are two possibilities.

1) Kobe jumped nothing and they put a car in the video with a computer.

2) The car did drive by Kobe except it was behind him or in front of him.  Most likely behind him though or the car would be huge.

I'm with the mayor on this one. Option 1, no doubt. You think Kobe would seriously risk his career for a sneaker commercial?

Didn't some kid try to do this several years ago when Jackass was on the air? And end up in the hospital?

I was wondering that. While it is a great concept for a commerical how many people are going to try this and then sue when they get killed or seriously injured?

I guess they are off the hook though as Kobe says several times do not do this at home.
