I bet most high school long jumpers/high jumpers/hurdlers could do this. Throw in a bunch of basketball players too. Cars aren't that tall and not all that wide. I suck at jumping and I could probably get close to clearing the hood of a car, get someone with some athletic abilities and this is far from newsworthy.

Come on. At least 4.5-5 feet high by 5 feet across-ish, right? That is far from "easy". It may be less athletically taxing than some things and hence many people may be able to develop the ability to do this, but it is unlikely that if you took a pool of 100 or 500 people that more than a couple of them would be able to do this right away.

It depends on the car. That one looks pretty short. Out of a pool of 100 or 500 track jumping athletes, I think quite a few could do it. Regular people, no.

Wow I can't believe this is a news story I assumed it was going to be a video a guy made of himself jumping cars....

[/ QUOTE ]

Yah seriously. I've seen videos 2 other people doing this, and those were both in England. Who knows how many kids in the States can do it.

Also, that marketing guy must be sick at his job!

Just curious, but is the video you're talking about from those guys that do the whole parkour thing?

No, 1 was back in the day when Gladiators was on, they showed one of the contestants able to do it, the other was a streetball site.
