Honestly, I suspect all their knowledge of such disciplines come from the Chuck Jones School of Advanced Genius Studies. Plans for the effort were clearly purchased from the Acme Corporation...

Antithesis would be putting it mildly. Had they obtained sufficient velocity and lift to reach the opposite shore there would have been no possibility of the driver surviving without a ramp to land on, even had vehicle landed perfectly horizontal without a deceleration ramp the vehicle would have almost instantly bottomed out its suspension with enough force to have compressed his spine to half its normal length.
