Roadster Leap site here 👇

Before the Snake River jump, here's what the first leap actually did. We tracked it frame by frame: 2.4 s airtime, ~6–7 m high, a full 360° roll, falling at ≈1 g. A real ballistic hop 🚀 A canyon will need a lot more 😉

Elon Musk just gave a huge update on the next Tesla Roadster demos
Future Roadster demos will include flying over the Snake River or maybe the Grand Canyon, then landing on its wheels
And exceeding half the speed of sound
The Snake River Canyon is where Evel Knievel attempted his famous rocket jump in 1974. His parachute deployed too early, and he drifted back down into the canyon without making it across
Now a Tesla Roadster is set to fly over it and land on its wheels like a normal car
At the unveiling, the Roadster already flew on cold-gas thrusters, did a full barrel roll in mid-air, and kickflipped over a Tesla Semi
Elon also said the Roadster will be able to perform these tricks autonomously, and that Tesla is building a wild looping track at its Texas HQ, crazier even than Hot Wheels, where owners can test their Roadsters
Turns out the future does have flying cars
It really leapt! It can't really fly... 🚀

It can leap! We measured it: 2.4 s in the air, ~6–7 m high, one full roll, and it falls at ≈1 g. That's a hop, not a hover, and still an insane bit of engineering 🚀

It really leapt! It can't really fly... yet 😉 We went frame by frame to measure exactly what happened 👇

The two biggest questions, answered:
• Hidden ramp? No. It lifted off level from flat tarmac at 2.8–3.5× its weight.
• Hidden landing deck? No. It was still ≈1.6–2.3 m up and descending when the fog hid it.
At full thrust the tank lasts ~2 s. It leaps; it can't fly.

Built with @bot Bot @grok. Clips from @Tesla, @edmunds and others on X (full credits on the site). Independent analysis, not affiliated with Tesla or SpaceX.
Plot height against time and it's a textbook parabola. Shot B fits a = −11.5 m/s², about 7 m apex. On the slowed clip's own clock it seems to hang. Halve the clock and it follows gravity exactly.
2/
We stepped through the one uncut wide take, one unique frame at a time. Its 60 fps stream alternates unique and duplicated frames, so the viral clip plays at HALF speed. That "hover" is really 2.4 s from lift-off to the landing fog.

Okay, this time motion designers might actually be fully cooked.
Saw people saying Opus 5.5 can do real motion design and I did not buy it. Looked like another AI demo that falls apart after 3 seconds.
So I tested it on a @PayBox logo. One prompt. Ten seconds. It spat this back in one pass.
I did not even explain what PayBox does. The agent read the logo, found the product, figured out the company, and wrote the scenario itself.
This is code. No After Effects. No editor sitting on the timeline for a week.
A studio would quote days and a few thousand for a brand sting like this. The model just built the cube, landed the lockup, and moved on.
Vision does not save you here either. The model is already overtrained on this look, and X is full of examples. Realistically, you do not need an experienced creative in the loop. You need a logo and one sentence.
The only part still on us is what to ask for. Prompt below.
