I don't think that is a sprinter.

It looks like a late 80's Renault Trafic...

The JackA$$ in the left seat could have been less heavy handed on the controls. Very unprofessional, but the entire exercise was kinda stupid. This has happened on airfields before.

If you looked closely, there were fire trucks along side the "exercise" - there was a car already "flipped over" during the second half of the video and how many DIFFERENT camera angles were part of this video?

Cockpit, tarmac, van, under the aircraft looking at the van? Not to mention there probably were as many, if not more flips & stills being shot that haven't lived a life on U-Tube or elsewhere.

And...notice the lack of a fuel-tank/fuel-cell on the van...and I didn't see anything that would scream "ENGINE" anywhere on that box...it was like watching a BOX get blown across the parking lot on a windy day.

Sucker Video!!!!
