0:17.2 | On to talk about, well, what it's like to be a professional stunt driver and racer and how |
0:22.3 | we could do it too. Now, racing is all about being fast and smooth, but stunt driving, that's a little |
0:27.5 | different. You slam on the brakes, and at the same time, you're locking up the e-brake, and that's |

1:42.9 | every time. This is a fun show. And I love a lot of |
1:46.6 | these topics. I love them all. But driving is hands down my favorite thing. Above all, I am one of |
