Powers tried to drive a rocket-powered and winged Lincoln Continental off a massive ramp and over the mile-wide St. Lawrence River and the border between Canada and New York state.

....and i remember watching this documentary when i was younger. There was another guy named ken who was originally supposed to do the jump but backed out at the last minute for something..and the financing ppl wanted it done. so they hired ken powers to do the jump. ..and you saw what happened...and the original stuntman ken was PISSED OFF once he found out what happened too.

Stuntmen have to be either very brave or stupid to do some of the shit they do....but GOD bless 'em!!

This was in Morrisburg, Ontario 10 min away from my city and i remember as a 6yr old seeing the size of that huge ramp in person. It became a big inspiration for us kids in the area to do some real stupid (and i mean STUPID) jumps with our bikes....i still have the scares.
