VIDEO: CORR truck completes double front flip, sticks the landing
Click above to watch video after the jump
In the video after the jump, a sports announcer describes this double front flip performed by Champion Off Road Racing driver Rick Huseman in his Fabtech Racing Toyota Tundra as "... one of the most spectacular things in all of motorsports." That's quite a lofty description, but we think the video doesn't disappoint. Remember, Rhys Millen attempted to intentionally backflip a truck on New Year's Eve in Las Vegas. Huseman not only does what Millen failed to do, but he did it twice... and forwards... and stuck the landing. Follow the jump to see for yourself.

I used to be in a pit crew for CORR team a while back. It was a BLAST! (Though scary for our driver a bunch of times). Best part was camping and hanging out with the other teams. I sure do miss it.

I think he was more stunned/surprised that he was still on all 4 wheels after that happened than anything else

And Travis Pastrana will be performing this trick when? I know he's not in CORR, but he's the first person I thought of when I watched the video.
