The most LEGENDARY Cannonball story of all time!

You edited that comment?

@@Samuelfish2k you feel the need to jump on a guy who probably misspelled something and didn't want to look like an idiot for it? (in his mind anyways) Oh look I hit the edit too! lol.

@@BlueTrane2028 No, I honestly can’t understand what exactly he’s trying to say After he edited it. Least he could’ve done was fix it right. Lol. Does that post make sense to you? And how in the world did 77 people thumb that? Correct me if I’m wrong, and I’ll gladly admit it.

Not everyone speaks eloquently, but general gratitude to Pamela was easy to comprehend.

Congrats in bringing Pam here on the channel. She's an awesome storyteller and has awesome insights on the cannonball runs history.

[@waknbakn420]

Exactly great to see it from her point of view

Thank you, Ms. Yates for agreeing to share your car stories with the VinWiki family. While the Cannonball movie is legendary for it's story lines and humor. Only the people who were actually there can tell you the backstories that Hollywood can't. Thanks again, Lady Pamela. The big chair is always yours, please come back soon!

[@johnficarra9500]

More Lady Pamela! An absolute delight to hear the story first hand. I certainly hope she told some more tales while in the chair. She is the best!

[@theanomalous1401]

Here, Here! I second the motion. Likewise, should the opportunity avail itself in the near future. A visit from "Gentleman" John Ficarra to come regale us with another 4 or 6 wheeled adventure in his own unique style is in order. The Big chair beckons! #TheDudeAbides #ThisCanBeRed❗

Not only is Lady Pamela here but she’s an absolute legend and a wonderful storyteller. So happy to get to hear this story.

[@duke9173]

For a story I’ve heard from many perspectives this is one of my favorite.

[@sams66toronado]

I love watching her stories. it's like sitting down with my grandma and her telling me cool stories all the time like she used to. Thanks Lady Pamela!

[@sccarguy8242]

Absolutely one of my favorite movies growing up, and hearing this story from the lady herself…. My day is made, might as well go to sleep right now because it ain’t getting any better then this.

I’m not sure cannonball stories can get much better than this. What a gem.

Dear vinWiki, Absolutely FANTASTIC!! I have watched every single episode for the last 2 years..COULD YOU PLEASE GET DENNIS COLLINS IN THE CHAIR??? No matter what in takes, but leave Richard Rawlings in Dallas. Thank You!

[@cypresscustoms]

All my life I have read the words of Yates and other cannonball alumni. It will never get old hearing these stories.

[@pas-kv8ud]

My new favourite Vinwiki story teller. Hoping to hear more stories from Lady Pamela. This one was epic!

[@dkslackmaster]

It’s amazing to hear these stories from the First Lady herself. Thanks for having her on and sharing these bits of history with the rest of us.

[@jasonrackawack9369]

Crazy coincidence, I just came across my copy of "Cannonball" written and autographed by Brock Yates last night....It was an honor to get a first run copy and gave it signed, I knew a some of the stories from the book but hearing one first hand from Pamela is priceless.😅😂🤣😉👍

[@shawnnorton2674]

What a wonderful story, an iconic story. And Pam is completely adorable. Thanks Ed, I absolutely love the content.

[@caseyramseyer9874]

Words from the women herself, I feel like I'm in the company of a celebrity

[@LukeEdward]

Bolian- This is the best story/storyteller that you’ve had on this channel in the many years I’ve been watching. Good show, good man.

[@lando0861]

Thank you VINwiki for bringing Lady Pamela to tell a awesome story!

[@KeithKman]

For you younger crowd that don’t know, this woman and her late husband are absolute legends.

[@DepreciationNation]

You’ve all outdone yourselves with this one… great story, fantastic lady, it doesn’t get any better…

[@aliassmithandjones9453]

this means a bit more to those of us who grew up in the 70's and remember how life was back then

[@Towtrucker9876]

Thank you for telling the story of that amazing encounter, Lady Pamela. Myself, and others I'm sure, would love to here more of your adventures. They would be an privilege and an honor to hear.

One of the best vinwiki stories. Great one

[@theelcamino105]

This has got to be my favorite story of all time

[@justinturner4850]

We thought lazer jammers and radar detectors were wild. Theses guys took “counter measures” to the moon! They built an ambulance and even stuck an IV in this woman. The Nardi wheel and Recaro seats with a loping V8 is really cool too:)

[@mycosys]

she made it pretty clear it wasnt actually in her, it was running down her arm

[@justinturner4850]

@@mycosys oh I misunderstood that! I thought she meant running down her arm from inside. I’ve had IVs put in my arm before and you can feel it rush through your veins at first.

[@acrvids]

This was a great way to complete the story. I like how she pointed out the "parallels" where everyone involved had their own perspective on this bizarre incident.

[@ricklarimer5495]

Lady Pamela is a wonderful story teller. I could listen to her for hours. Imagine all the incredible things she experienced with Brock. Since I was a kid I always enjoyed Brocks stories and magazine articles. Every so often I watch Cannonball on my VCR, yeah it’s crappie but there’s something about the old tech that makes me smile while watching the old movies.

[@chuckwhitson654]

Thanks Ed, and crew. One of the best yet

[@markmiller4595]

My favorite video on this channel so far!

[@chrisschmidt146]

What a great Story. Brock and Pam are such wonderful people. We used to dine in their Cannonball Pub in NY State. It so great to get HER point of view on all of this, just fills in the story in a very special way. Thank you VinWiki!

[@tihspidtherekciltilc5469]

The Cannonball Run had a huge influence in my life and this is why I've been a subscriber from the beginning. My question is how do you feel about having a bunch of great actors come together to make a movie about what you did.

[@GRIMRPR6942]

Lady Pamela reminds me of that grandma that always the greatest stories of "when i was younger we..." Bless you Lady Pamela.

[@alexm566]

Most underrated video on this channel, WTH!

[@perry8181]

I do so love this story. We often think that much of this was so well planned, tested and executed. And it's only dumdums like "us" that are getting it together the morning of. We all have had moments where things go way wrong and others that go pretty close to as planned. But nothing is more thrilling at the end of the day than when you look at each other and realize we should have never gotten away with what happened back there and this car should not have held together 20 miles let alone 2000. Zip ties and duct tape are the classic joke, but when you roll into your destination beating all the odds of logic and reason it's just so sweet.

[@ghomerhust]
