This gif is making my brain hurt. Half of my brain is just content watching her hop away from the cannon, the other half is mad that it was faked. I would have preferred they had really shot it.

haha yeah didnt they put a charge in it for effect? They actually did put a decent charge to it for the final scene I know.

I don't know. I just know that little gun would jump and you could see the ball if they had actually shot it. The car also would still need to be loaded with explosives anyway because the ball would just punch a hole in it and not set off most types of explosives.

Aww C'mon man. Half the crap on these particular shows is faked and hyperbolic anyway. That's the point. Remember the Fiat Panda vs. the Ferrari where they fucked up the last half of the track so the Panda would win? Yeah it totally looks faked and rigged, and the blokes who rigged it know it as well as they expect us to, just as they know firing a fucking cannon at a w124 has nothing at all to do with what it's customers expect from it in terms of 'quality', build or otherwise.
I'm glad these shows don't take themselves to seriously. They'd be considerably less fun to watch if they did.

Is it really too much to ask for a car to just be shot by a cannon ball? I fail to see how that would be less fun than watching a fake cannon shot blow up a car. If the point is just the explosion it can be had without the cannon, otherwise, just shoot the damn thing.

Everyone knows that a cannonball going through a car isn't as exciting as the illusion that a cannon fires an RPG at a car and a huge explosion ensues. Geesh, haven't you learned that guns = huge explosions?

True, most people don't believe someone is actually shot if they don't go flying through the air because of it. Thanks Hollywood.
