[TowNews]

Having your car transported on a flatbed truck is no fun so the owner of a Mercedes-AMG C 63 S in Russia thought he’d have a little fun by doing a burnout in the sedan while it sat on a truck.

 

It remains to be seen why the C 63 S was being moved on a flatbed because it appears to be working just fine. Nonetheless, the owner almost got a serious fright and came within seconds of potentially flying off the truck and down to the snowy pavement below.

Having your car transported on a flatbed truck is no fun so the owner of a Mercedes-AMG C 63 S in Russia thought he’d have a little fun by doing a burnout in the sedan while it sat on a truck.

 

It remains to be seen why the C 63 S was being moved on a flatbed because it appears to be working just fine. Nonetheless, the owner almost got a serious fright and came within seconds of potentially flying off the truck and down to the snowy pavement below.

Initially, as the Mercedes’ rear wheels start to spin up on the back of the truck, everything appears in order. However, the power of the car’s 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 proved too much for the straps holding the car in place with them breaking spectacularly and sending the C 63 S crashing into the front and one side of the bed.

 

Footage captured once the truck had pulled over shows that the Mercedes slid off to the side of the flatbed, appearing to damage one of the rear wheels. Additionally, some damage was done to the front bumper of the Mercedes as it slid forward.

 

As hilarious as this entire thing is, we have a feeling the owner probably isn’t all that concerned with the damage and how close they came to complete catastrophe. In the social media-crazed world that we live in, dangerous stunts like this are all too common as people seek out ways to try and go ‘viral’.

Not the first and certainly not the last.
