This is were we see Rambo enter the town of Hope for the first time. The large sign above Sly is now sitting on the lawn in front of the old train station in Hope. It was removed during the construction of the Coquihalla Highway in 1985. This is located as soon as you come off the number one highway at exit 173 and turn left.
Legendary stuntman Bennie E Dobbins unfortunately broke his back on this stunt as his car caught too much air and travelled higher and farther than expected. He had an amazing career and passed away in 1988 at the young age of 55
