50.6 meters — this is the new world record for distance jumping on the tractor. The previous record was set in 2008 — 15 meters. Also last year, the team, «Formula 1» Lotus had the idea to do the same thing in a truck with a trailer. They flew 25 meters, and at the same moment a tractor driving a racing car, but that only gave entertainment.
Now, however, an absolute record — the ex-champion of the rally-raid Baja 1000 2007 Greg Godfrey, who had to disperse the 9-ton truck to 112 km / h. This happened on the show Evel Knievel Days, held in the US city of Butte, Montana.
During the jump, virtually all 2,000 spectators watched the scene open-mouthed astonishment.
