Wheeling Truck Show
In the program :
Patrick BOURNY (the truck stuntman) steers his truck by a subtle and quick play between gas pedal and brakes. Of course, no abutment to maintain the balance on the truck rear wheels. He can drive wheeling the all range of the track and performs a show where he interchanges between :
- Speed-ups, wheeling at high speed;
- Slow motion balance when Patrick is keeping the 12 tons of steel almost at a stop;
- Slalom between human cones;
- Circles (such as during the world record for German TV broadcast on ZDF : 4 rings within less than a minute, recorded on may 7th 2017 by the Guinness World Record);
- Truck dancing the walz.
