Can't help but recall the JATO Rocket Car
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JATO_Rocket_Car
The famous JATO Rocket Car story was one of the original Darwin Awards winners. I remember reading it out loud to my buddies and us all rolling withlaughter when it was published in News of the Weird. pre-Internet.
One of the best episodes of Mythbusters when they recreated this.
The first or second time?
I think this was the FIRST episode.
