![]() The majority of the jumps in the films are relatively small though, so this shouldn’t have too much of an effect. The only problem with this is that in the films the cars are moving at very high speeds, this means that there would be a large force from air resistance and this could slow you down considerably in the time you are in the air between the two cars, causing you to miss your target. This force from air resistance is proportional to the velocity squared so as the speeds get higher it very quickly gets a lot harder to jump from vehicle to vehicle. This being possible is due to relative motion, when two vehicles are moving at the same speed no matter how high that speed is, it’s the same as if they are two completely still vehicles. Roman Pearce jumps between two vehicles in Fast and Furious 6 Throughout the films we see a lot of people jumping between cars and trucks that are moving at high speeds, would this be possible in the real world or is it just Hollywood trying to make the most interesting scenes possible? Here we will take a look at the physics behind it. Throughout the films a lot of possibly physics defying stunts are performed and some real liberties are taken with the laws of physics, so we will have a look at some of these instances now. The main characters include Paul Walker’s ex FBI agent Brian O’Connor and Vin Diesel’s street racer Dominic Toretto. The films mainly centre on street racers performing more and more extreme stunts to evade capture by various law enforcement agencies all involving different luxury sports or muscle cars. The Fast and Furious franchise currently contains 8 films with the first one coming out in 2001. Multiple directors, 2001-, rated 12 and below by bbfc
