Old episode. It was a good one and they did get the car to skip across the water "pond". I think it was even able to drive away afterwards. Not far anyhow.

I still want to hear the story on how they bounced a cannonball out of the firing range and through a house.  That happened a day or two ago.  CNN has a report but it's some stupid video clip so I'm still looking for a text report.  Grant supposedly tweeted that they were blowing stuff up that day, then they blew a hole straight through a house near the range and the tweet was deleted  :bhead

Everyone I know, goes away, in the end.

Best story I've gotten on it so far:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qN_Ux5YQ8Ks

Sounds like someone made a serious "oops" somewhere.
