Has anyone ever jumped a Camaro ss ?

Evel Knievel style, I’m talking. I’m talking ramp to ramp. I was thinking about jumping 15 Ford Mustangs, but I would need a serious sponsor to get the car up to task. Probably some serious nitros. Does anyone know if this has been done before? And who might sponsor the car? Thanks fellas. I know this will take a serious car and lots of training runs!
Oh and does anyone know if you can mount a parachute on the rear of the car just in case. Thanks for the help fellas. I will post the video on YouTube !

Get a 4 thousand pound vehicle to jump 15 cars (150 feet at least) and land safely? Have you even seen a professional do it and what all they have to do to the car? They spend more than what your Camaro cost just to build a 1 time use car for their stunts. And even with a special chassis and suspension, on a successful landing, the landing is so violent that the car ends up in the scrap yard.

Sorry guys. Wanted to mention, the :50 second mark is the type of
Jump I’m most interested in doing. I know a lot of Camaro guys are upset about their not being many Camaro commercials on tv. I would like to start with something like this to give Chevy a spark give em something to put up against the Dodge brothers and the brotherhood of muscle.
