It didn't beach, something triggered the defence system, which causes it to hunker down.

Look at the wheels

how can you say something breached the securtiy system

Its got to the pivot point and hasn't made it over that's whats making the car have that stance.

But it looks like the front wheels are off the ground yet they are still up inside the arches, which kinda points to something with the car.

Perhaps the defence system was triggered BECAUSE of the hitting the speed bump though?

The wheels aren't on the floor... The massive clang was it hitting the deck after the systems triggered.

Look at the wheels

It's been jacked up to get it on that VERY large recovery truck parked in front of it..

it is the defense system, just watch the video, the front wheels jump up into the arches when it catches.

it was probably the speed bump catching something underneath that set it off.

As a side note, if that car can't handle speed humps wait till he comes over here, he's fucked! Won't even get out of the airport!

look, what happens when you jack a car up at the front Xmemeber?

the front wheels will drop?? not got up into the wings??

think about it.

Two reasons

1) some sort of defense system, which I don't quite get, if it detects a something underneath why would you hunker down the car, if it was a bomb it would make things worse.

2)with the weight of that Mofo it would use air suspension or hydrolic suspension, could it have just shit its self??
