Drove his Boss 302 off of a cliff.

I hate the thought of a wrecked Boss or Shelby or any car for that matter.  Just that a wrecked Boss or Shelby compared to a damaged regular car is like an aggravated battery is to a plain old battery case.

Protect your car at all costs.  It follows a fortiori that you protect your life and everyone else.

Just found the video.  Gone fishing.  For a Boss 302.  At the bottom of a cliff.

Must've thought they were in a Guns 'n Roses video sans a 66 G.T. 350H (substituted for a "regular" fastback in the fall sequence.)

"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

Lol!  Icarus...

YES, Icarus the son of the master craftsman Daedalus, the creator of the Labyrinth.

Icarus and Daedalus attempt to escape from Crete by means of wings that Daedalus constructed from feathers and wax.

Daedalus warns Icarus first of complacency and then of hubris, instructing him to fly neither too low nor too high, lest the sea's dampness clog his wings or the sun's heat melt them.

Icarus ignores Daedalus’s instructions not to fly too close to the sun, causing the wax in his wings to melt.

He tumbles out of the sky, falls into the sea, and drowns.
