Comment on Should I?

To preface this story, miraculously and thankfully no one was hurt:
Back in the day when I was young and excessively stupid and had my first car my buddy and I were driving around the city drunk as fuck. Doing laps on the highways circling the city, we drove through the college campus (like literally through the campus, stairways, quad, etc), and at one point I found some vacant hanger with what looked like a small airstrip.

So we’re testing the poor cars top speed (or more accurately how much can it vibrate before I loose control) and I see a ramp or what looked like a ramp. Obviously I swung around and floored it.

The car survived, but I learned that night to never ramp off anything in a car. Hitting the pavement was the most godaweful sound I’ve heard from a car firsthand.

Never ever ever EVER do anything like that, people. That has to be my dumbest night in my life. Decades later I’m still amazed no one was hurt and still shocked no one even saw us do all that shit. I would think it was a lucid dream if my buddy wasn’t there and talked about it the next day. That could have easily been the last night of our lives, and God forbid someone else’s.

TL;DR No, don’t try ramping off of it.
