Driver filmed handstands on moving, unmanned car

A 30-year-old Southport man was charged with dangerous operation of a vehicle after he was caught doing handstands on top of his unmanned, moving car in Burleigh Heads

A Gold Coast man could face up to three years in prison on charges of dangerous operation of a motor vehicle after being caught performing handstands on top of his car while the vehicle was unmanned and in motion — with the whole thing recorded on his own mobile phone.

Police were called to Hutchinson Street in a quiet industrial area of Burleigh Heads at 6:30pm on Tuesday after members of the public noticed the unusual activity.

Members of Operation Takeback patrolling the area for bikie activity arrived on the scene and intercepted the white Toyota Echo.

The 30-year-old Southport man made the admission he had set up his smartphone to film the stunt with the intent of uploading the footage to Facebook site “handstand Tuesdays”.

Footage taken on the man’s phone which police discovered on the side of the road shows the man driving the car down the street, lifting himself from the driver’s seat out of the window on to the car’s roof, and supporting himself on top of the moving car with his hands for about four seconds with the vehicle moving.

The man can then be seen getting back into the driver’s seat through the front window, making a U-turn and repeating the stunt four or five times.

No one was injured and no damage was caused to the vehicle, which was towed as a result of the offence and will be analysed by police mechanics.

Senior Sergeant Mat Kelly said the incident was very unusual and dangerous.

“The vehicle was without a driver while the man was doing a handstand on its roof and if it had been hit by anything that could have caused some very serious,” he said.

“It is alarming that young people are out there taking their lives into their own hands to take the vision to show off to the world.”

The man faced court yesterday after being arrested on the scene and will reappear in Southport Magistrate’s Court on March 10.

Avoid speed bumps, cattle grids, railway crossings, low bridges and uneven roads you will be fine

Also avoid if you are wearing budgie smugglers and there are lots of Christmas beetles about.

we marvel at men and women who strap themselves into a tin can while an explosion sends them to 'space' We are engaged by men and women who chase a ball around smashing into one another at full pelt, cheer at the stunt driver who clears the 40 busses and idolise those who achieve extreme things inthe face of 'danger' Yet we find a small indigression as abhorent. I salute him, a no boundaries no fences sort of guy, not curtailing to the idiotic politically correct masses and god dam if he's not having some fun. He didnt kill anyone, destroy any property or fiddle with children or the unemployment rate.
I say 'hand-stand on car man' for PM

How much would he cost the tax payer if he incapacitated himself? Would his family be happy that he did not hurt anyone else even though he's fatal to himself?

Probably cost no more than a footballer who breaks their back a french yachtsman who needs rescuing by our navy or the drunk driver who puts someone in a wheelchair forever.
Down deep I agree with you, uncontrolled situation doing something daring. But I don't want to live in the nanny state where its people are scared to do anything interesting. He didnt crash or kill anyone, I assume he assessed the risk around him at the time and pulled the stunt off with aplomb. As for dying, he might have died doing what he loved, and our society finds that heroic!

Premier Newman.

The thread was an attempt to show up a idiot in the spirit of the famed Darwin awards.

Can you keep politics out of this thread, you have your own lengthy thread where your resentment of Newman is clear for everyone to read.

Has nothing to do with politics, he has always been a tool.

The Mad Hueys for their shark cage trick.
