I can't get it to come up. Is this the video of the airliner coming down on the car on the highway?
If that's it, we had a discussion about this a couple of months ago.
Because I have that kind of time, I did some research. The MD-11 or DC-10 airliner that is in that video (3 engines, one on each wing, one running straight through the vertical stabilizer) has a nose gear weight of something like 40,000 pounds. And the actual impact pressure of the nose coming down is something like two or three times that during landing.
The SUV would've been flattened by such an impact.
But it is a funny video.

I love that video too. But I have also seen the air show trick of a small single engine plane landing on a car.

I was just looking the movie up on Wikipedia and something I read there made me laugh so hard I almost spat coffee all over my laptop.
The movie’s budget was a whopping $300, $140 of which was to pay a ticket for walking on the highway.
