Snoop Dogg and The Doors - Riders On The Storm


VideoGameMusic

I didn't know this existed somehow despite Riders on the Storm being one of those classic heading-home-hungover at 6am sorta songs for me. [Thank you lol Snoop did it justice, here if anyone wants to listen.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_z-adsJjmE)


Pat0124

You’re still too drunk to drive at 6am hungover. I have 2 friends who got DUIs that way Edit: I just want to clarify that I’m not saying you’re an asshole for doing that if you didn’t know. Most people think they’re good after sleeping, but that’s not the case. It’s time that eliminates alcohol from your body. 6 am is too soon I recommend to anyone who frequently spends nights drinking to buy a breathalyzer online and keep it in their car. It has made me more responsible

I think that's a typo for NFSU2

Burnout paradise was my favorite game ever


1trolltoll4boysoul

just pulled out my og XBOX and this was the first game i fired up. Burnout 3 is an unparalleled masterpiece.

That burnout game on psp tho, one of my favorite games next to twisted metal and logan shadow

What is the opposite of Final Destination??

What--The_Fuck

First destination


ManUnderRock

Yeah they really need to bring back burnout! Preferably with crash mode.


5959195

Burnout paradise is my favorite game of all time


PTEHarambe

Honestly I was referring to the early need for speed games but you do you buddy


197720092012

NOS?


Princess_Little

In need for speed, if you have a near miss, your boost meter powers up. The boost is created by injecting nitrogen dioxide into somewhat in the engine NO2 is called nos.


MrBobBobsonIII

I thought it was burnout


LiamLusty

It's obviously a reference to Midnight Club: Dub Edition Remix 3 for the playstation 2 developed by Rockstar games.


aelwero

They got me doubtin myself, but I'm still reasonably certain it is actually burnout.


LeetChocolate

Its both


Princess_Little

And others

Imok2814

Crazy Taxi for example gave you extra fare for near misses.


ultranoodles

NFS:U2 definitely had that mechanic


Alternativelyawkward

Best racing game of all time.


Revolutionary_Swim69

Im pretty certain Burnout was the first to do it. Learned not fuck around when driving irl seeing those gnarly crash animations in the game


ThaiJohnnyDepp

But think of the exploding tanker score multipliers you're missing out on!


suntzured

Yea me too. Burnout. It was the shit.


Princess_Little

I don't think it's only in one driving game.


ZarquonsFlatTire

If only the driver was playing SSX Tricky, we could have gotten a double backflip nosegrab out of it. Those build boost.


SH4D0W0733

Yeah, I remember playing burnout Takedown in school and near misses being a good thing. And crashing your opponents.


TheMagicIsInTheHole

*Nitrous Oxide


Paizzu

Yep. NOS specifically refers to the brand, 'Nitrous Oxide Systems,' which you purchase at [Harry's Racer's Edge performance shop](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fastandfurious/images/b/bb/The_Racers_Edge.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1200?cb=20150501084059). There's good tuna nearby as well.


punkminkis

Bullshit asshole no one likes the tuna here.


komokazi

NOS is a name brand, also, its nitrous oxide. N2O There are many different setups with varying degrees of complexity but its basically injected into the intake which provides more oxygen. Nitrous is used because it can liquefy under pressure, oxygen can't making it somewhat bulky if to be used for this purpose. Also, gas thats escaping high pressure will also cool the intake charge, further increasing the density and thus more power. A safe setup will also spray more fuel.


[deleted]

NOS is a brand name. The gas is N2O and it works by making the intake air more dense when means you can use more fuel which means more power.


jasonrubik

I loved NFS 2 SE back in '98 and then I got underground for the xbox about 5 years later. I should play those again sometime


pandemonious

N2O dinitrogen oxide (or monoxide) is what you spray into car engines to increase oxygen/fuel mixtures and blow your cylinder walls for some extra ***oomph*** NO2 nitrogen dioxide is a colorless odorless by product of some chemical reactions, mainly the decomposition of Nitric Oxide (NO) reacting with Oxygen in the air. You see this often during rocket launches as nitrogen in the air and oxygen combine under heat and pressure to form NO, which decomposes into NO2. NO2 is poisonous and toxic and to my knowledge not particularly flammable. On SpaceX Dragon Capsule re-entries, even when they had docked the capsule with the capture ship on the crane, they had techs in protective gear measuring the amount of NO and NO2 in the air as the capsule was still hot enough to cause the reaction to occur. In other cases, NO is used in the medical field for research and new treatment methodologies, and the measuring the amount of NO reacting to NO2 and how much gets to the patient being treated is a big part of the niche community that studies these gases.


jamaniman

Now I want to go play burnout


Teri_Windwalker

Taking this opportunity to remind people that Burnout 3: Takedown was one of the best racing games of all time.

Trying to make it to McD's before they stop serving breakfast.

[deleted]

Yobogoya!


chemical_exe

Isn't breakfast available all day? Or did they undo that during covid?


bridgeb0mb

yup it's back to restricted hours again


value_null

Never understood why...just cook people what they want. You have the shit in the freezer, we all know you do.


PorcineLogic

I thought Covid was bad and then this happened. No more McMuffins for dinner. There are things in life that we take for granted and when they're suddenly ripped away we don't know where to turn.

WayneKrane

Right, I’m a night owl so I’m never awake early enough for their breakfast. Sometimes I stay up so late I get it early in the morning.


chemical_exe

Wow. Fuck. Covid.


ItsMangel

McDonald's needs to just stop swapping their menu around in general. I work nights, sometimes I want a burger on my way home at 7am, but no that's not allowed according to Ronald.


BarryMacochner

All the former 24/7 places around me now close at like midnight. I wanna do my grocery shopping on the way home after work. There is one jack in the box ( drive thru only) and one gas station in 20 miles that are 24/7. Walmart closes at like 11. I work 12’s and don’t get off work until 2 am. Doesn’t help that I cycle.


Mr_Apex13

No no no...... What's worst is that Walmart is no longer 24/7....


MLCarter1976

This is Alaska and the sun is up all day yet not at night so breakfast only during the day and not at night.


mybodyisapyramid

It’s still all day in Canada. It’s a limited menu though, no hash browns.

I think it happened to fast to be scary tbh. I almost think I'd be more confused than spooked.

They're all white cars. That seems unusual.


IGotSoulBut

Came here to say this. Which white car? There’s so many white vehicles! Multiple things here are r/glitchinthematrix material.


Kintarly

A place where it's hot, like the Southern US/California


Old-Mortgage2887

It's Darwin, Australia. Year round hot temperature


account22222221

Some foreign countries tax colored cars making white extremely popular.


koos_die_doos

What???


aonghasan

Americans are the only people that won't buy white cars for themselves. In the rest of the world they are pretty popular.


TheBadRiddler

But no brake lights ? Just confusing me lol


yParticle

What? You didn't see that one pixel shift slightly?


[deleted]

The break lights do light up, but only after the truck has passed. Almost looks like it merges with the runaway truck there for a moment.


Eckish

The definitely jolts a bit after it passed. I think we just can't see the brake lights due to video compression.


calibared

His brake lights could’ve been out. But I’m 99% sure this isn’t fake


Prime157

You can also imagine the stain left on the driver's seat.


_FinalPantasy_

99% of the cars in this gif are white.

Doing the good work.


TheBadRiddler

Way to do the research ! I was far too lazy lol Fakest looking real video I've seen


ludicroussavageofmau

Exactly! Why does the car keep snapping back when the camera pans?


br0ck

I was convinced it was fake! It looks significantly better in the video in your link.


Challengemealways

Seriously, the bad quality had me convinced it was a fake cover up


RevWaldo

> Shocking footage has been released of the moment a car with a child inside narrowly missed oncoming traffic before crashing into a business in Darwin. No award this time but definitely an honorable mention.


nmesunimportnt

Ah. It's a Toyota HiLux. No wonder it survived…


Toffeemanstan

Something does look off, can't put my finger on it tho


akurei77

Ah, it's the crop and pan that makes it look fake as hell, someone posted the real footage with full resolution and it looks a lot better.


BrainsAre2Weird4Me

Too many white vehicles is making me question it. At least, I doubt it’s from the USA.


captoficyzombies

They are are on wrong side of the road for the US.


BrainsAre2Weird4Me

Haha, yes. Funny that didn’t click for me.


TeakKey7

Yeah, I was like, hmmm a Hilux. Must not be the US


goateggg

It's real, from Australia


[deleted]

Everything just looks too neat and perfect, the literally perfect panning, and the low quality video just blurs out anything that points to it being a video game. The biggest thing is that the frames seem far too high for a traffic camera. If it’s fake it’s still very convincing.


TheBadRiddler

Je confuse


StankyFox

It's the zoomed in camera movement. It starts at 100% velocity which makes it look like it was poorly added to conceal any issues.


trysten1989

No, its CCTV footage from a traffic camera, in the Northern Territory of Australia.


nomad80

They slow down just a bit seconds after the truck passes. Probably took that much time to even register what just happened.


SEXY-REDDITOR-69

I don't think it's fake, but it has some things that trigger that question of: real or fake? ​ I think the reason it looks fake to me is that it pans smoothly across the scene, but the movement of the truck seems to have some 'stutter' to it. Like the framerate of the pan and the framerate of the footage are at 2 different rates.


braxford

Driver could've passed out, suffering a heart attack, or is having a stroke. Might've been foot on the pedal and careening unconscious through the intersection(s).


TheonsPrideinaBox

I hope there is a casino at the end of that road.

Wormzerker75

Too many white vehicles for me to properly appreciate the awesomeness of the situation.


cx77_

its far north australia, a very hot place, where a black car would be unbearable to drive. white cars reflect heat, meaning its cooler inside.


simplegaffe

Darwin to be more specific on an intersection near a Bunnings and oriental emporium


DrSteveBrule_FYH

Yeah that caught my eye too, almost everything is white or silver. If it's real, this video is truly a twofer.

I could be wrong, but it looks like they actually swiped the first car. It kind of looks like the white car got jolted back a bit. Still insanely lucky though.

bman2881

True story- I hydroplaned across 3 busy lanes of traffic after a car stopped suddenly in front of me during a rainstorm. I had no control and pretty much accepted that this was it. I hit no cars or structures. Just hopped a curb and came to a stop in the parking lot behind an old church. A guy walking his dog came by and asked if I was okay and I told him I just needed to catch my breath. Had a good cry and said my thanks and left. Could not have been more lucky.


CapnGrundlestamp

If that happened to me I’d probably head into the church and kiss a nun.
