40 Most Ridiculous Moments In The Fast & Furious Franchise

39. A Bus Flips Over A Car (Fast Five)

Fast Five picks up where the previous film left off, with the gang attempting to spring Dom from a prison van. They manage to flip the prison bus, but how, you ask? By using a ramp or a giant vehicle of some kind? Nope, Brian (Paul Walker) just uses his comparatively puny vehicle to pull up in front of the bus, slam to a halt and allow the bus to clip the edge of his car, sending it flipping into the air. It doesn't really make any physical sense (which is an increasingly pointless complaint about these movies), because in reality, the bus would almost certainly just squash Brian's car...and him too. But that's why everyone loves these movies: they stick two defiant middle fingers up at basic science and logic.
