Looking at the video, I'm surprised a Rolls Royce could get airborne that high in the air.
They tend to be extremely heavy vehicles.
It wasn't a Rolls, it was a Bentley.

Ahh, my bad.
Depending upon the model, some Bentley cars can achieve speeds over 200 mph, so that would be
possible.
Turbo W12 engine . . .

Too rich for my wallet though :(

Even the royals *prefer* Bentley. Rolls, well, "status
symbols", that "olde tyme grandeur" kind of like the
king's carriages from 300 years ago - but for DRIVING ....
Bentley's are damned good vehicles. But, yea, $$$
Ah - came across a news item - about a year ago, a number
of Bentley models had a RECALL. Issue = STICKY ACCELERATOR
PEDALS.
DID see a used Bentley dealer in Orlando Fl once ... don't
know the prices however.
