The longest jump ever made in the World Rally Championship was 278 feet, just under the length of a football field. But most rally cars are made from tiny little compact cars that can barely handle potholes. How do you get a vehicle like that to soar through the air and come back down in one piece? We explore how rally cars' design and engineering makes them capable of such massive jumps.
