If you’re not familiar with Ken Block or his Gymkhana series, here’s a quick cheat sheet: The former is a rally car driver and the latter is his series of stunt-driving videos that have amassed hundreds of millions of views over the past decade or so.
Now that you’re caught up, here is Block’s latest release. It is the Gymkhana Eight and it was filmed in the awesome city of Dubai, which appears to have been closed down for Block to freely shred its streets as he pleased. The Gymkhana series has featured a vast array of settings, but the backdrop of Dubai creates quite an aesthetic pleasure.
Also, once again, the stunts are insane.
Don’t believe me? HE DRIFTS AROUND A TRUCK DRIVING ON TWO WHEELS.
And here’s a quick (but terrifying) cameo from a low-flying plane.
Then he drifted around another moving plane on the ground.
I don’t know about you, but this kind of stuff makes me want to grab the keys to my base model Honda Civic and tear…my… city…UP. I won’t though, because I can’t even parallel park.
