I had to chuckle when I came across this challenge, as this was one of those things that I specifically remember not being able to do as a child. My parents were pretty laid back, but for some reason this was a freedom I wasn’t allowed. I should ask them why, but as with most things related to complaints about my childhood, I simply get waved off with a “Bah.

All I know is that the windows were almost always up, unless my dad was flicking his cigarette ash out of one. Ahh, to have grown up in the late 70s/early 80s.
Task: Experience aerodynamics and experiment with lift and drag by sticking your hand out of a car window while it’s in motion.
Requires:
- Moving vehicle (with open window)
- Open road
- Amputation
- Broken Bones
