Helicopter versus car drifting is the crazy new sport of kings (Video)

This looks mental...

What do you get if you cross a 1,000-horsepower car, a helicopter and the man who skydived from space?

This! And it looks pretty damn cool.

It’s helicopter versus car drift racing and Red Bull got none other than Felix Baumgartner behind the wheel/stick of the ‘copter to give it a go.

The basic premise is that the super-powerful Toyota GT86, driven by pro drifter Jakub Przygonski, has to outmanoeuvre the bird.

It’s a pretty epic game of cat and mouse, and one we’d love to try…
