  • Formula 1 driver David Coulthard knows quite a bit about going real fast. In a video posted on Thursday on YouTube, the Scottish driver shows another rather unusual and badass skill: catching golf balls in a Mercedes AMG. While driving. At 180 miles per hour.

    It takes a few attempts, but at the 1:11 mark the golfer swings and Coulthard maneuvers the vehicle to successfully blow everyone’s mind by catching the ball in the passenger seat. The video seems to be a promo for Mercedes. The video states the car was moving at 180 mph, but The Daily Mail reports the car was moving at 120 mph. Either way, it’s still an astonishing feat.
