    This Sunday Father's Day is the start of a week long festival in Beverly Hills to celebrate 150 years anniversary of the unification of Italy. It starts with a Concours d'Elegance on Rodeo Drive with the finest classic Italian machinery. To commemorate this GEARYS put this insane stunt on. Only in Beverly Hills. Its long so you can fast forward it.



    I'll be on Rodeo Drive as I am part of the organizing committee to put this event on. Come say Hi.

    That must be some strong coffee, to hold the whole car up. Nice car, too. Do they come in red? :rolleyes:

    The coffee cups holding the car are vintage Ginori, probably worth thousands. The car a 275GTB4 is worth at least $1.2 M. My wife was horrified at the abuse of the cups.

    I am, too.

    And, the man did say "tea cups", though they do seem large enough for a nice cup of coffee or cappuccino.

    A ho-hum display of static compression strength. Now, if someone were to bump the car...

    You can do this with an empty cola can. Stand directly on it with your heel and it will take your entire weight. Then have someone tap the side of the can, and it will collapse into an almost perfect disk.
