In the United States, they launch trucks from aircraft carriers. Real heavy vehicles, which even manage to in the water bounce. And it is not madness, but pure reality. But this is not the insane gesture of a truck driver, but of military tests to all effects. The visual effect, however, leaves you speechless.

Is the truck about to overturn? The driver’s maneuver is astounding
The catapult throws the truck into the sea
Tuuta “fault” of a video published by US Navy, the United States Navy, in which heavy vehicles are seen, including a red truck, come launched from the aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford with an electromagnetic catapult. The Gerald R. Ford is a nuclear-class aircraft carrier, and uses a more modern catapult system than the traditional one of the old peers. The Navy, evidently to test their efficiency, resistance and launch capacity, has seen fit to use very heavy vehicles, even if the system will then be exclusively (and obviously …) dedicated only to airplanes.
The flight and the bounce in the water
Seeing a truck being thrown into the sea by an aircraft carrier, and even seeing that truck bounce off the water like any stone, however, is a scene that would leave anyone stunned. Seeing is believing.
