Blackwell originally said he would jump 42 cars to celebrate his 42nd birthday, but later upped the ante to 52 cars, saying he wanted to beat a world record set by his boyhood idol Evel Knievel.
Blackwell made 3 apparent practice runs at the ramp, each time veering off at the last second.
On the fourth try, he hit the takeoff ramp and successfully made the jump.
