Demo of the 'Mega Jump' or 'Rocket Bounce' bug in the 1990 DOS game Stunts (aka 4D Sports Driving).

The bug happens when landing the car on an angled piece of track. It seems to happen most often when the landing point is right near the end of a given track piece, and very often when crashing, although neither of these is always true, as this demo shows.

Either way, the end result is your car rockets vertically into the stratosphere at huge speed. Gradually, the speed scrubs and finally you drop back to earth again, usually to a fiery demise. In this case however, the Jaguar lands nicely on the track and continues on as if nothing particularly special just happened. Well, in Stunts, stuff like this happens all the time. Meh!
