- Glacier View, near the toe of the Matanuska Glacier, celebrated the Fourth of July with lots of food, a parade and an airplane flyover. They also launched three vehicles off the bluff. The fourth, a Ford van, came off the guide wire at the last moment and crashed head-on into a bulldozer. Party organizer Arnie Hrncir said the team has never launched three vehicles before at the party. “Any little kid’s dream is to roll a rock down a hill. This is times 10,” said Arnie’s son, Dustin Hrncir.
Hrncir estimates the third car off the jump, an early-90s Nissan Pathfinder, reached 55 miles per hour on the 500 foot runway, and traveled a distance of 100 yards in the air - both records for the celebration.
Arnie Hrncir reported 550 guests, the largest crowd ever. Over 500 pounds of pork, beef and chicken were served at the party that first started in 1996. The car launching began in 2005.

Me too
It's so american that it turned my tea into a cheese burger

Okay.
This event actually happens in Canada 🇨🇦
People in other countries on holidays: “Kids get the cheese and crackers out”
Americans on Holidays: “Let’s make cars become airplanes”

*“That was probably the most American thing I’ve ever seen.”*
yea i hope they still do it
1:04 this is probably the best scene in the world 😂
@@denis1237 they clean it up afterwards, so no it doesnt get destroyed
I just can't get over how cool this is. Such a beautiful landscape too.
The best car recycling centre I have ever seen 😍
I have been thinking of selling out down here in SC and moving to ALASKA for 3 years and you are giving me still yet another reason, The picture perfect scenery
what a beautiful place for crazy idea to fly :D
I wonder if trophy trucks would work if it jumped from that hight
@@zakgrubb7512 nope, it'd have to have a 'chute
thank you
It won't be beautiful for long the way they are treating it.
And the beauty of it is that nobody gets hurt. 👍
Well, it's their property so they can do what they want. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Except for the oil and gas seeping into the river 100 feet away from the crash site. OH WELL!
BeamNg in real life
Brian Lim I was thinking the same thing
Omg i nust write that then scrolled down then saw yours.
yes.
Brian Earl Spilner I was playing beamng wtf u can see me can't u
good
I love the fact that whenever people see some crazy awesome shit like this...they always think “Americans”
God damn does that make me proud
not something to be proud of...
@@mesh3466 uh oh, someone is self conscious
@@mesh3466 That's up for debate. You only live once.
Y'all lmao, it's not something to be proud of because the rest of the world thinks your a laughing stock. Over here in europe we just watch and laugh as you do your stupid shit 😂😂
@@steeldriver5338 same argument could go with anything. Limits are important...
The best part?
There is a guy on top of the dozer...
That is nuts. You're the first comment I've seen that mentions this. Nice eye
if only we could place politicians in the car
Yo, I know they are rats and all, but chill.
@@g.vanimations700 nah. They’re bombing innocent people so why not make them the bomb.
@@Sackmatters that would make us the same as them, I’m not saying their angels or anything, I’m saying we should know better.
We should put California's governor in it
Fuck I love this country.
love it. one of the safer motor sports i have seen. no one driving no one gets hurt. and everybody gets to see the crash .
"Sir, you can't do that."
"Hold my beer."
This reminds me of the route we took on the way to high school.
I love the bulldozer setup lol. Y'all look like you're livin it up there
When he sad they had a car hit a moose I thought they meant the van landed on a moose

Yall niggas slow
Ive seen this on some car show, AWESOME!
@DECEBAL VIOREL NISIPEANU its kind of like the running of the bulls in Spain, but in this no animals are harmed and nobody gets trampled, just a bunch of cars that were destined to the junkyard anywsy
Ok now this is a must see on my bucket list
You guys need to get some fpv drone guys out there and film them from the air !! Awesome way to have a blast on 4th July !!
3:40 when a Tesla loses sight of the lines at the worst time 😂
Electric is here to stay ! Your V8 stoneage engines are soon gone
@@johankerttu3349 Oh give it a rest. Given Tesla's crapbox quality, this WOULD be a better use for them!
Classic cars will never leave the road totally, and real quality EVs made by better companies will sink Tesla.
@@johankerttu3349 "stone age" 😂😂😂😂😂
I Would love to go out there it looks so pretty and peaceful and them doing this to old cars is pretty cool actually.
Have a new entry into the bucket list. I need to see this before I die
Fantastic!! Nailed it, Scott Jensen! And to think no tax dollars were harmed at this event along with no admission. I'd say this was an all American good day.
Why do you have to bring up tax dollars? What events harm tax dollars? Also, there is an admission fee. Tickets are required to sit up close.
@@gary_neilson1896 note my comment was 7 years ago. The event was free back then. The owner of the property chose to start charging a couple years later - completely his choice over his property. As for tax dollars - often 4th of July displays are put on for a community using your taxes, whether you wanted firecrackers or not. When launching cars here in Glacier View, you only fund it if you want to, by going!
I hope this explanation makes the light-hearted comment from 7 years ago more clear. 😉
1:59 "Safety First" way of life
This is the definition of good clean fun
Guaauu! super increible, nunca habia visto algo asi en mi vida, deberian sentirse afortunados por tradiciones tan bonitas como esta..
As soon as lockdown over I'm coming over from the UK .....Not missing the next one !
What fun!! This is about as American as you can get. Great 4th of July party!
This is a far better ad for visiting Alaska than any tourism agency could come up with
The engines are old-school gem😣

I wish my town’s parade was this neat.
In Germany we say: Junge, die haben doch einen an der klatsche
Me: mom can i have some flying cars?
Mom: we have cars at home son
The flying cars at home:
Wouldn’t have believed it if I hadn’t seen this hilarious video.
this looks like it would be very fun to watch in person
"It's every kids dream to roll a rock down a hill"
When my friend says i Know a short cut
Wow the drivers of those cars must of had some good beers in them! hope he's got bandaids!
Nobody drives they stick the throttle down and have it go
this whole video was like a fever dream
i recommend watching these crashes with the soothing sound of Debussy's Claire de Lune in the background for the ultimate crash experience
Add those people.
I am living in the wrong country!
There aren't many large hills like that here in the UK and I'm sure some 'do gooder' would complain and stop us doing it
OH COME ON!!! You got the beautiful cliffs down in Dover. MAKE A SCENE!
Lol the eco freaks would go mental hah hah
All the more reason!!!
I thought only Americans were idiots
+Enter the Void no, us brits are batshit crazy too
Now that’s a lot of fun 💪🏻👏🏻‼️👍🏻
Puts a whole new meaning to the term "bushplane"!
"Someday the mountain might get'em but the law never will..."
Dukes of Hazzard reference. LoL 😁
A kid in Africa cud hav eaten the van...😐
DFromOutEast My uncle's name is Donald and hes a trucker, not a rapist. Dont tell me stories boy. I spect he gets ya bout twice a week.
I gotta question where did you get the idea that my uncles name is rivk when i told you its donald and hes a trucker.
J.T. Rayborn Rick is your uncle that took your virginity and Donald is ricks boyfriend
DFromOutEast How would you know about this.

Nice one folks.Good to see some fun & letting some steam off.Don't we al need it.
That flying van should have radio on and there should be playing sweet home alabama xD
"Mom can I get a flying car?"
"We have a flying car at home"
Flying car at home.
I’m Aussie and this is one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen
You folks are my heros...
Love that its with the environment in mind
i used to go to the demolition derby in my home town. i thought that was exciting but this takes car destruction to a whole new level AWSOME!!!!
I uh... I would pay money to see this. For uh... like science and stuff.
Pay 20.00 for a PC game called beamng.drive if you like this. It's worth it.
Turningsnake yes I LOVE THAT GAME
PG Productions xçnxxlco bjv k jkcjciki
you uh pls uh fuck off
Happy fourth of July!
I'm really impressed this was not clickbait.
Only problem I saw was, they should have been Prius(s?) and Smart Cars, to really make it a sensation.
that would be a hazardous clean up with a Prius
Branden Peck
The irony, eh?
Yeah *only I wanna see a Prius BLOW UP before it hits bottom*
NOT SMART CARS they are cute prius(s?) suck And they are ugly so shut up
LOL, OK?
2:19 me showing my friends the potential of my Toyota Camry but then the engine blows
Happy Fourth of July now time to fly

0:19 'murica
Other people: THAT IS SO COOL!!

So did you go there 😂
@@huzrokhayzur2197 Not yet

The Native within me sheds a tear at the sight of this. However my Viking ancestors are like "Oh wow this is awesome!" and enjoying the show.
wow, SUPER realistic beamNG Mod Can't wait to test it out!
Adult acting like teens right here: (if parents was teens)
ok_boomer lol spectacular but we always see men and women speaking ! Boring
Don’t they ALL know each other up there? Like every single person
well i’ll see you boys again in another 4 years when it’s recommended again
This is a hold my beer event
Next time... use a propane tank and road flare and let by the onlookers shoot it it once it flys to try and blow it before it lands.... just saying.
There should definitely be Hollywood style gasbag pyro so they blow up like the movies.

Rip accord
Although its automatic so not a big loss
He is just getting rid of ricer junk so not a rip
So many cameras, so few good shots :(
A drone would have been awesome!
Do these guys look like they're rocket appliance experts?
Ian Phillips
I know I’m a year late, but they had a drone at 1:59. They probably should have put it on the other side of the cliff though, idk what they were thinking.
That dozer is an immovable object g dang
I am going to find this and go next Fourth of July
These people are awesome
I think I can see Russia from the top of the cliff...
Don't say it too loud, otherwise Putin would like to invade Alaska.
nobody wants you here Hillary. the election is over, trump won
That would be North Korea
Cause Earth is flat! Checkmate roundies!
sarah dumbass palin couldn't of said it better
