Ken Block does it again.

I don't know if I would say he has outdone himself, but he certainly does impress.

You know, I think like most people on here, I have mixed feelings about his videos. But despite that, I will admit these-2 facts: 1.) I do find them entertaining, regardless of how many takes it took to put it together, much like any other Hollywood car chase. And 2.)I'd sure like to try it sometime!

He is a good driver for sure... But did we really need them to stop and go into slowmo, running things over for EVERY corner?

I dunno, it just kinda killed it for me when I saw how many shots it took them to piece together the last one. Not to say that its not an impressive video, or that its not talent... but what do you expect with a professional driver doing take after take...

Trying to stream the HD feed was frustrating so I had to do some quick googling to figure out how to dowload the feed...

Pretty sweet, I have all 115MB of doorifto goodness on my hard drive now.

this one was alot more aggressive, but too much in the beginning, car looks bloated, getting away from the theme...

i like the 1st one more

Some of those moves took some serious balls. Like the one where he's skating on the edge of the pier?

I didn't get the paintball guy or the truck trailer at the end.

I can't wait to make about ten more threads about this over the next few months. Some of it was even more amazing, but there were too many flashy things that didn't make sense.

I don't know--- I thought it was pretty cool. Yes, there were some unnecessary effects, but the driving was ballsy if nothing else. He came very close to some very solid objects. Entertaining at least.

I would definately like to try it. I thought some of the water balloon and flourescent light bulb things looked cool in slow motion. It was a cool video. I heard he did one before this. Let me find the link

very flashy, dare I say, too much so. But still, nice car and nice driving.

I liked it a lot better than the last one, although the lightbulbs, paintball and water balloons were goofy. You get a good sensation of the speed.

I've always wondered why tire companies put their names to something like this. I mean, that car failed to actually put its power down to the pavement through the entire video. Why should I want those tires?

Nice video, but the intro kinda makes him look like a......

really good stunt driving! (and of course, I am SURE we will all be asked if we have seen this video about 100 more times)

the first thought that came to mind when I saw the waterballoons was "are they trying to cool the tires?!"

I like both the videos. Anything that stops the crushing pain of modern life for a few minutes gets a big thumbs up from me generally.

I will add this, though: There's no kind of stupid like YouTube comment stupid.

haven't watched it yet, but I just wanted to post on this thread before the next one gets posted (and the next one, and the next one). besides the many takes, my only complaint from the first one was how many times it was posted here.

He's the owner of the sponsor DC shoes Rob Drydeck. I enjoyed this one and the car sounded mean, I like mean sounding cars!

It is entertaining. Looking at the tire marks on the ground there definitely were a lot of takes for each shot.

After he broke a fluorescent light bulb over his head in the intro, I couldn't take the thing seriously hahaha.

Ehh I liked the first one better, there was too much sillyness this time. I'm goongto wait a seek and start a thread about this video like I've never seen it.

Actually Ken Block is the owner (one of) of DC Shoes, Rob Dyrdek is a sponsored athlete of DC Shoes.

I like the first one better.

I only wish I had access to a skid pad this large.

Unfortunately, the editing was as impressive as the driving. I could've done without the slow-mo and the paint balls etc. Stuff near the waters edge was way cool, though.

Tractor trailers and cabs, concrete blocks and pillars, building footings and various large machines will hurt you badly if you hit them. Ken Block has guts...and maybe a screw loose.

To avoid the multiple postings about it, what if we make this a temporary sticky?

A little corny in spots but way cool overall. Awesome vid.
