Porsche 911 somersaults into parking space, sticks the landing [UPDATE]

Like most auto enthusiasts, we prefer to park our own cars rather than hand the keys off to the valet. This Porsche car owner, however, skipped the whole parking lot song and dance entirely.

How so? A lot of speed and some barrel rolls. The end result is a parking spot at the rear of the lot, some light body damage and a possible concussion. It's a scary scene, but what is perhaps most remarkable is that even after flipping over a wall, the driver still gets out to inspect the car's damage.

UPDATE: There's speculation amongst staff and readers as to what type of car is shown in the video. We're undecided, but 350Z/370Z has become a popular choice.
