Stunt driver breaks world record for bungee jumping in a car

PARIS, France — A professional stunt driver in Paris went bungee jumping inside a car and broke a Guinness World Record.

Nissan France organized the world record attempt in the Paris Business District, located in the Puteaux area.

Nissan recruited professional stuntman and race car driver, Laurent Lasko, to take the driver’s seat of a Qashqai e-Power.

The car was attached to eight bungee cords and was dropped from a crane at a height of 213 feet and 3 inches.

The stunt met the exact goal set by Guinness World Records and took the title of the highest car bungee jump.

Nisaan Marketing Director Jérôme Biguet said the stunt seemed like a logical next step after several of their TV commercials featured the Qashqai e-Power engaging in extreme sports like skateboarding and paintball.
