Pop Star Britney Spears’ niece – her sister, Jamie Lynn Spear’s daughter – 8-year-old Maddie, is in critical condition after an ATV accident on February 5, 2017. According to a report on TMZ, the girl was underwater for several minutes after an ATV she was riding overturned. The report states the girl was riding a Polaris ATV in Kentwood, La. during a hunting expedition.

One of my favorite stunt scenes is from Live Free or Die Hard (2007), when traffic is re-directed from both ends of a tunnel in an attempt to ruin John McClane and Matt Farrell’s days. The scene culminates in McClane somehow driving his car up an improvised ramp (it’s actually a tollbooth but hey – everyone gets that one wrong at some point) and jumping it into a helicopter while throwing himself free at the last second.
