Well, the car might have survived that landing. That footage was shot many
years ago as a Leyland commerical. The car did land okay, they hopped in it
and drove off. But this was the second attempt. On the first attempt, the
chute didn't open. Car and Driver had an "after" picture of the first car.
Talk about one low slung MGB.
If anyone wants to research this picture, it was mid-70's, probably a
January issue.
