Passenger's face during Jaguar test drive is hysterical

By: Will Goodman
Topics: FAIL!

(CBS) - Some people have very expressive faces. Take for instance the passenger in this video showing a test drive of a Jaguar XKR.

Beyond it being obvious that he has probably never done a test drive in high-performance and powerful car, I think it's also safe to assume he is terrified and wants the drive to end.

The hilarity kicks in at about 30 seconds into the clip.

The video appears to originate from Russia, and I would actually recommend watching it a second time to see just how cool and calm the driver is during the video (especially in comparison to the passenger). He's obviously driven a Jaguar XKR at least a few times in his life.

A hilarious video that's bound to get a laugh or two out of you in watching.

Nobody who's afraid in a car doesn't just throw themselves around, they hold onto something. I know. I've had many frightened passengers in my car and it was just an MR2.; Reply to this comment

Some of the videos that have been posted as "hilarious" aren't. I've enjoyed the human interest videos on CNN, but have they changed who's picking them?? This one is a farce. Ridiculous.

And the one about the endless shampoo bottle... What is this?? These look like STAGED videos, from what I can tell. And no, I don't think they're funny.

Also, they keep posting these obviously staged videos, like the "endless shampoo" one. I appreciate the fact that they're trying to entertain and amuse us, but they really could and should do better. There's a lot of genuinely funny stuff out there, let's mine a little deeper, shall we? Thanks!; Reply to this comment

Fake. I don't care if you're unprepared for it. No way would you continue flopping around like that after a couple of turns. 1 or 2 turns in you'd brace yourself so you don't get whiplash like that

by corkscr3w June 12, 2011 9:48 PM EDT: You'd be surprised... I've been the dummy bouncing around a couple of times and the one driving. The turns don't look that serious on the track until you have jackass cranking around the track like they're an F-16 pilot.

If the passenger was seriously getting that sick, he may have been a little pre-occupied with not yakking and overlooked hanging on for dear life.
