The most shocking thing about that picture.... is that the hummer did not just keep going.

Really, how do they expect to traverse the mountains of Afghanistan if they can't even drive over a Civic! I think the post is backwards, it should read: Civic Stops Hummer Cold!

What's also interesting is that the Hummer is REALLY, REALLY heavy, and the roof and the pillar stood up to it!!!

Much less than 50% of the Hum's weight is on the Civic.

I wonder if the hummer even got a scratch on it?

I need one of those. If I get pissed off in traffic I can just drive over on comming traffic to get around everybody!

Wonder if he drives a MONSTER TRUCK on the weekends.

Funny stuff...

Yea, look at the angle of the Hummer...I bet the reason it stopped when it got on top of the Civic was because the driver fell out of the seat! It's at a serious angle!

Seriously, I do wonder why he stopped. Kind of reminds of the freaking psycho that stole the tank in L.A....running over cars as though they were butter...this isn't quite the same, but still. I'd love to know the story behind it. It looks like a pretty new Civic with bling blings on it. I wonder what happened...on the forum that I got it from, it said something about it taking place on a military base. That's about all anyone knew...

That's a Humvee not a Hummer to be exact. Military version.
Note the MP's car in the background, prolly on a Military Base
somewhere.

The Civic did hold up surprisingly well. Bet the driver has a mean headache.
