The First Ever 360 Degree Barrel Roll In A Truck

By Ganesh

One car stunt that's considered very difficult, not to mention extremely difficult, is the 360 degree barrel roll. Very few have ever managed accomplish this dangerous stunt and Baja 1000 racer Adrian Cenni is now one among those few.

Adrian Cenni performed the challenging stunt only last week, before the start of the 2013 Baja off-road racing as part of the pre-race "contingency" in Ensenada, Mexico.

Adrian Cenni, also known as The Wildman, performed the 360 degree barrel roll in front of a live crowd. While some are erroneously claiming this to be the first ever 360 degree barrel roll, it's actually not. It is, however, the first ever full barrel roll done with a truck.

The ramp used to pull off the stunt was specially built. The ramp is designed to first launch the truck into the air, then when the truck contacts a second section of the ramp it is sent into a barrel roll. Watching it in action is pretty impressive.
