Hump Day Holeshot: Playing Dominoes With a Row of Standing Buses

Evel Knievel was held responsible for more child injuries than all the violent video games, heavy metal music and superhero comic books combined. The daredevil cheated death time and time again before millions of spectators over his career, inspiring future thrill-seekers with dreams of defying gravity.

One such person is Josh Beckel, who earned a reputation for doing darn near anything behind the wheel of a car around Washington state. Recently, Beckel attempted to set a world record by crashing a red Geo Metro (yes, you read that right) into a row of four buses stacked vertically like dominoes.

In fact, Beckel’s exploits earned him the name of “The Crusher” having laid many a car in ruin after his stunts. Unfortunately, the stunt didn’t quite go as planned, resulting in a pretty funny situation, which thankfully, left Beckel in good health, but in a uncomfortable position.
