The best one yet

:hail: I take the Fremont St. offramp every day...not like that though!

And I was wondering where the donuts on the bay bridge came from :thumbsup:

Very impressive....as always. :thumbsup:

Wouldn't it be nice to get paid to do that sh*t over and over again until the producer felt it was just right. :yes:

It would be interesting to know the production stats and costs of those videos.

Saw this on Facebook and came here to make sure the goodness was shared. I've enjoyed his other videos but this one takes the cake with it taking place in SF!

Some where Detective Frank Bullitt is smiling!

They notified us (Caltrans) of the closures but wouldn't disclose what it was about. And this whole time I thought the donuts on the Bay Bridge was just another late night/early morning sideshow.

Agreed, I wonder if they just cordinated that video when the did the bridge shut down? they seem to shut the bridge down 1 or 2 times ayears since all that construction started. still curious how much?

this video is proof that ford still owns the streets of San Fransisco!!:P

No that was closed on a Saturday just for the filming. The bridge closure is usually once a year and the next time we close it will be to permanently shut down the Eastern span and open the new Eastern span. However, it would be nice to see him do some more of his driving on the old Eastern span once its shut down.

Just unreal... Anyone else get flashbacks of being a kid with hotwheels when watching this. You know when you pretended the cars could slide and spin and jump... Who would have thought someone would actually make it happen.

That sideways jump was awesome. Im amazed the tires didnt roll off the rim though.

Not sayin Kenny B cant do it in one take... but I bet there are at least a couple good outtakes. Would be neat to see those also.



Jeff-

there is a gymkana behind the scenes video on youtube somewhere.

Right?:D

So What time of day and which day was this all closed off for this?

What was the date and time of the filming. I don't recall ever seeing anything on the new about a Bay Bridge closure for filming?

Ken Block is a marketing genius. Period. This video made national news. Over 7 million views for 9+ minute commercial? Genius, plain and simple.

Not sure if you saw that guy with all types of style sitting on the trolly.......





yup... that was me!!! lol. :cool:

FUn time. I was there for the whole shoot. Even got a sick apocalyptic skate photo on the closed bridge!! It was fun.

sorry for bragging... :lateral:

I wondered if you had any part in this one. I remember you saying you two were friends or at the very least knew each other.

This was definitely his best one yet.

Very Cool! :thumbsup:

sweet....

Nice! Must of been fun...

Saw the donuts on the bridge today, brought a smile to my face. What a GREAT video!!!

Saw that...was wondering why the lone person seemingly in the entire video...cool! :unibrow:

DC Shoes must have paid a ton of of cash to San Francisco to shut down the bridge and downtown streets for the video shoot. I knew they would find a way to get Lombard Street in there :thumbsup:

man must be fun to get paid to do that lol i forgot he's the owner of dc shoes :thumbsup:

Moster, DC, Ford....ect.

And they tried to get Lombard... but the city wasn't letting that fly.

Ken sold DC few year ago. He has no ownership in it. Quicksilver owns it.
