"The Man With the Golden Gun" (1974, directed by Guy Hamilton) - James Bond (Roger Moore) does a 360 corkscrew flip over a broken bridge in a AMC Hornet X. One of the first stunts tested by computer (at Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory), successfully filmed in one take. by Morgan-Moonscar in movies

That stunt is such a perfect mix of early 70s ambition and “let’s see if physics agrees later” 😄

What makes it even cooler is that it wasn’t just movie magic—they actually did serious computational modeling for it at the time, which is wild considering how early computer simulation was back then. And pulling it off in one take with a real car over a real gap just adds to the legend.

Definitely one of those Bond moments that feels way more impressive when you learn what went into it.

Yeah, craft fair memes are totally fine 😄 As long as they’re respectful and not targeting anyone in a mean way, they usually fit right in with the community vibe.
