Default really bad show

Thats a pretty good 15yr old driver!

I forget the name of the television show that aired this but I wasnt a big fan of it, (worlds wildest police videos i think?) The narriatior is always making the stories sound "bigger" "crazier"

I just thought that it was funny how the cop they were interviewing was talking up the LT1 saying it had a "chip" and its a corvette motor, then the narrator said that the camaro had 350 hp. (there were almost no changes in the police camaros right?) then the narriator says the bmw is "supercharged" (2:23) I dont think I have ever heard or a factory supercharged BMW. and all the fake sounds they put in to make the chase "intense" (screeching tires, semi horn). and the BMW DID get away, the police found him at his house a couple days later. Compare 2:08 to 3:41, they edited the clip to make it look like the BMW was pulled over.

sorry mabye im just easily amused but it cracked me up.

but all things aside, ... that was a close call for the cop!

No seriously, what would the LT1 "with a chip" actually make? I know it can't be 350 hp...

I like how the cop is like, "It's the LT1 engine with a chip, which gives it more performance than what the general public would have." That just cracks me up.

I like all the comments there too. People are retarded.
