Gran Turismo’s Ridiculous Car Flips

Gran Turismo is heralded for its realism, but how well do the game’s physics really work? Watch a collision that forces a car to do more flips than would be safe for a cheerleader.

YouTube user drkcharizard caught this ridiculous flip in action. Anyone else experience similar acrobatic feats in Gran Turismo?

  • lol
  • Funny, but no game is perfect. I'm not too concerned about videos like this.
  • The way that care stayed intact is so realistic, you can slap my face and call me shurly
  • Wow. Soooo realistic. :/

    My favorite part is watching the red Skyline AI car do a 360, never lose speed, and then get rammed back to 160 mph by his railway brothers in back.
  • no car damage it looks fake and stupid
  • I guess they just tried to keep the physics slightly realistic...

  • nice.  that must be from before the patch.

  • No acrobatic feats from me, but I don't drive the wrong way on the track. I have noticed that when I slam into a wall, it can be a little sticky, and the car kinda just floats when serious collisions occur.

    I would much rather see the car just shred itself to pieces, the way it really would. But I also didn't come to this game for the crashes. When I mess up that badly in a race, I just restart, and try to drive the line better.

  • enough to make my head spin.

  • I love this game, but this is just hilarious.  I've never seen anything like it when i've played

  • as of when did cars do barrel rolls while floating

  • This made me spit out my Frosted Flakes in laughter. Was not expecting that exaggerated flip at 0:11!
  • Did he inflate his tires with helium?

  • As someone who gets into head-on collisions all the time, I must say the physics in this game can sometimes be very unrealistic.

  • "This video has been removed as a violation of YouTube's policy on shocking and disgusting content." REALLY?!?!
  • Awesome

  • O great it got removed before I saw it. not fair. and why is one user advertising on a lot of posts?

  • Um I'm pretty sure cars flipping shouldn't be shocking or disgusting content. Or at least GameInformer wouldn't show such a video so that's bizzare it was taken off. Would have liked to see it.

  • Wow, didn't realize that video game cars doing rolls and flips was shocking and disgusting.  What the heck is wrong with me?
