Bigfoot , Bob and Dan KINGS in the monster truck world

I met Dan in Columbus, Georgia a few years ago. He was getting Bigfoot ready for a show & I was surprised to see him "assembling" it alone. He was a class act. I had pulled into where he was in my company truck & he answered each & every one of my 9000 questions & never seemed annoyed or even preoccupied. That's the way it should be. All too often, people in positions such as his can be short with observers or even downright rude. Dan was neither... it was very cool chatting it up with someone who clearly loves what he does, but cares about the fans too.

Still the best Monster Tuck bar none! This takes incredible engineering. Also, best engine in the business I promise that.

I'm 43 now and Big Foot has been part of my life for most of it. I have seen Jim Kramer and Bob Chandler in MSG in NYC and Nassau Coliseum on Long Island so many times when I was kid. My dad brought me to so many of these events. This video brought back so many great memories. Thank you.

I'm 36 and have loved monster trucks longer than I can remember - I work in the automotive industry with 4x4's and actually learned a couple of new things about monster trucks from this video!

tks for the upload to Team - Car and Driver Magazine.

There's already videos of just the jump on youtube. The point of this video was to explain HOW they did it, which some people might want to know.

Skip to 20:05 for the jump.
