Funniest part was that he didn't even get out of reverse, I don't really know what he was trying to do (if you listen, he says "no, that will break the gearbox" - followed by what happened and "as opposed to what that just did")

It states "(NA VL 5spd)" Maybe he turns his car off and very fast ninja Asians push his car down the highway making it have a "5th gear"?
