This Historic Monster Truck Front Flip Will Astonish You
The driver in this bonkers video is Lee O’Donnell, otherwise known as the Mad Scientist. Quite apt, it turns out, as he’s certainly mad, and the stunt he performed on Saturday night requires a physics degree to be explained properly. Or perhaps we can call in Engineering Explained and his whiteboard.
Booting it to get the front end up in the air, his monster truck hit the ramp in Las Vegas’ Sam Boyd Stadium just right, sending the vehicle into a spectacular front flip. It’s apparently the first time such a move has been completed in Monster Jam history, and we’re all spectacularly impressed.
O’Donnell - we doff our caps to you.
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

What a jam.
In the entire history of monster jam, this has never happened. As an American, I can confirm this to be a communist plot.
We must nuk- I mean put sanctions on Russia
This is what happens when u at full speed and accidentally hit the poopoo hole
Its called a new game. “Roll Over.”
At least add just a bit more for the wheelie… (I can’t really say since this is the first time I have ever seen a monster truck in action)
Ok i’ll leave now
This is a Motorsport born from “Hold my beer and watch this”
