Since discovering Knight Rider Historians, I've been looking at the series with different eyes. There's always something to discover about K.I.T.T. in every scene.
That car sure does look good flying through the air. TV shows used to provide major stunts on a regular basis until the car chase era ended in 1986. Glad they built the flivver car also to wreck less Trans Ams and provide us with more turbo boosts
3:40 - I am willing to believe, that Hasselhoff himself did that braking maneuvre. The hair shape is perfectly his. Even if that wasn't him, he certainly had enough skill to do it.
@@aligamerable Yes, they just banned him from high-speed stuntdriving because he crashed the car even stuntdrivers didn't want to drive fast, (stock suspension open-diff handlebar steering 'computer car). Pity that after Knight Rider he didn't try luck in Hong Kong, when American producers didn't want to hire him. He could have become a stuntman-actor.
This was awesome, I'm actually buzzing from watching this. What a fantastic compilation. I feel like a kid again. Thank you, thank you, thank you. OMG. your number 1 is my all-time favourite turbo boost.
I remember my mom always saying about Turbo-Boost: "Do you have any idea how hard they would land, if that were real??" LOL She also used to say when KITT went 127-200 MPH....she's like "We can see the car, you wouldn't even see a blur!" LOL Mom could be quite the killjoy.
Funny thing, after rewatching that Robot Chicken sketch that was a fast and furious parody in wich a lot of cars of the pop culture race, KITT is between them, and Michael says 'better use turbo boost" KITT replies "but Michael, I can only use my turbo boost one time per episode", I tried to number the times that KITT use turbo boost per episode. At least he used three times once but I don't remember if there's more.
3:56 The Trans-Am in that turbo boost just scraped the van as it returned to ground! Incredibly the van doesn't flinch! The stunt driver almost got injured. Incredible though He managed to get up to speed in a relatively short distance.
I already always watch all of knight rider series that I am absolutely really love it such much of the day of the week for now and forever recovery and peace.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
There’s one that should have been there, one I remember so well. It was in the episode “A Good Knight’s Work”. Was a very personal episode because it was the episode where Tanya Walker’s lover Cameron Zachary finds out Michael Knight is Michael Long and he wants revenge for Tanya’s death. The turbo boost at the end has KITT going from one building to another into an apartment….and getting stuck up there 😂 but what a sight it was!
You know the clip at 6:20 with the canyon is about the only time I have seen a zoomed out view showing KITT's voice synthesizer in the dash, I always thought it was in the console until you pointed it out in one of your other videos. Also in that clip KITT's voice synthesizer looks different, was there a reason? I also wonder if that orange Charger is the same one they used in that controversial commercial.
Man Oh Man. KIIT did 40 times Turbo Boost. Impressive KIIT. Honestly #23 cannot be considered as Turbo Boost as it was not attempted. Turbo Boost #18 was Too Much Funny and Hillarious. And may I ask why Season 2 Episode 13 titled "A Knight in Shinning Armour" when Turbo Boost was attempted through inside an empty moving train carriage and also Season 2 Episode 24 titled "Big Iron" where KIIT gets buried under piles of sand and through Turbo Boost both KIIT and Micheal Knight jump out and thus are saved. Why these Two Turbo Boost are not included?
Man, you can tell the vast majority of those jumps ended REALLY badly for the car, and it was pretty rare that they actually showed the landing and didn't cut away. My favorite definitely has to be the jump over the Dodge Charger though.
Google says they only used 23 Trans Ams to make the show and only one was rendered permanently inoperable, compared to Dukes of Hazzard destroying a rumored 300+ Chargers. Makes me wonder whether the Trans Am's durability was just that good, or if the stunt team was just better at their job.
I seem to remember as a young child there was one where KITT went into a tunnel and the other end of the tunnel collapsed or was blown up, then KITT turbo boosted up through the ceiling of the tunnel and out of the hill abov?
Just now realized the turbo boost sound effect is the same one that launches the Colonial Vipers in the other Glen Larson production, the OG Battlestar Galactica.
2 men did make a difference 1 was Dave Hasselhoff & Richard Basehart. I will always remember that very distinctive and distinguished voice Richard Basehart had even as Admiral Harryman Nelson creator and builder of Nuc
“One man can make a difference” Happy 40th Anniversary Knight Rider ❤❤❤ My childhood TV show 😊
Mine too
Amen!
The Reverse Turbo Boost was simply inspired! Now *THIS* is *KNIGHT RIDER* !!! Hoff and KITT, together as ordained!

1:11 - "You're not thinking of.. Oh, my word, you are!" - KITT (Knight Industries Two Thousand)
Numb 18 is my most favourite turbo boost of all time. The confidence on Michael with the turbo boost was an oscar performance.
That car sure does look good flying through the air.

Always Loved The Pontiac Trans-Am. KITT Is My Kind Of Car, Period.
He's our pal.😆

Even if that wasn't him, he certainly had enough skill to do it.
Hasselhoff was able to do stuff like that. According to Jack Gill, he had become a pretty good driver through-out the filming of the first season

Happy 40th Anniversary of Knight Rider (1982 - 2022)
Brilliant presentation. Happy Anniversary Knight Rider
It's a stunning performance by Michael and kitte thanks to all stakeholders of Night rider team
The Turbo Boost brakes and Turbo Boost Suspension were amazing!
Happy 40th, Knight Rider! :)
The Turbo Boost is what makes KITT awesome.
I appreciate how Turbo Boost went from a simple burst of speed, to the ability to elevate without any ramp, to the ability to jump from a dead stop.
we need a new series with david hasselholf and this car at leaset for another 10 years , our child hood was awesome due to this amazing car
My favourite is still the turbo boost over the semi in the pilot episode.
I definitely agree with number 1 being number 1. All the different angles, even the interior shot from the corner shop. And over moving traffic.
This was awesome, I'm actually buzzing from watching this.
What a fantastic compilation. I feel like a kid again.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
OMG. your number 1 is my all-time favourite turbo boost.
Those side-of-the-car shots when KITT flies... 👍👍👍
I remember my mom always saying about Turbo-Boost: "Do you have any idea how hard they would land, if that were real??" LOL She also used to say when KITT went 127-200 MPH....she's like "We can see the car, you wouldn't even see a blur!" LOL Mom could be quite the killjoy.
It's moms privilege 🤭 (on the other hand, when children we didn't care)
Turbo Boost, a cheesey grin and a smashed up K.I.T.T on landing and a "OOOOOHHHHHHH" 😂😂😂😂
It's sad to think how many beautiful Transams were wrecked in this show.
Maravilhoso!!!!! Sensacional!!!!! Os "turbos" são as melhores façanhas do KITT!!!!! Valeu demais!!!!!👍👍👍
THE WORLD OF THE KNIGHT RIDER!!!!
Parabéns Pelos 40 Anos de Knight Rider _ O Justiceiro! É o Meu Filme Favorito! Adoro!!! 🥰🥰🥰
That sound of # 33 gave me goosebumps all over the place
THIS JUST APPEARED IN MY FEED. I APPROVE

The sound of the turbo boost gives chills
Awesome Turbo Boost's!! 😎👍
MK always checks over his shoulder after a TB >.
The classic Michael Knight "look back!"
“Whoo!”
Think it’s to see what he’s jumped lol
Last turbo boostvis my favorite!!
I miss the turbo boost Kitt vs Karr in the finale fight
Number 9 is the best acting I have ever seen. Ever. He looks terrified.
Love it when I was a kid and now grow man 😅😂

A Where does my favorite stay? When Michael becomes amnesiac, KITT chases him and jumps over the earth workers. The best!

Turbo boost heaven!😁😁
I wonder how many stunt drivers got hurt. Some of these landings look like they were nearly completely nose down lol
Ok Pal Let’s do it, Turbo boost is one of the main defining qualities of Kitt and KnightRider. Although some of the huge leaps do seem ridiculous.
Ridiculously good! 😉😂👍🏼💯
Great stunt work with the VW jump car in some of these boosts.
Also, notice the leather jacket hanging onto the car in some of these jumps.
Number 1 and 2 are the best from season 1 for sure
2:32
Happy Anniversary!
This is just awsome :)
Ótimas cenas! Parabéns à equipe e ao dublê! Não foi fácil fazer.

This is where every Fast and Furious movie after number 3 got their inspiration 😊
KITT wouldn't be the same without Turbo Boost, a nice selection but of course there are more than that.
There’s got to be at least 1 turbo boost in every episode, it was his signature move.
Man Oh Man.
KIIT did 40 times Turbo Boost.
Impressive KIIT.
Honestly #23 cannot be considered as Turbo Boost as it was not attempted.
Turbo Boost #18 was Too Much Funny and Hillarious.
And may I ask why Season 2 Episode 13 titled "A Knight in Shinning Armour" when Turbo Boost was attempted through inside an empty moving train carriage and also Season 2 Episode 24 titled "Big Iron" where KIIT gets buried under piles of sand and through Turbo Boost both KIIT and Micheal Knight jump out and thus are saved.

Great jumps
Please upload complete episodes of this series
happy anniversary
Man, you can tell the vast majority of those jumps ended REALLY badly for the car, and it was pretty rare that they actually showed the landing and didn't cut away. My favorite definitely has to be the jump over the Dodge Charger though.
There are blooper reels of tires exploding and I think of an occasional bent frame.
8:06 is that the General Lee?!?!
Wowzers! I didn't know that the Turbo Booster on K.I.T.T. 🚗 could fly or leap over other things!
I'm surprised they didn't show the scene when Michael did the turbo boost with Kitt vs head on 💥 at Karr?
:35 Ouch didnt make the landing! RIP for the stunt drivers spine.
Knight of the Drones...turbo boosting over a missile should have made the list, in my opinion. 😁
Lovely tribute 5:19 what episode is that turbo boost from.
It was used in a few episodes - "Nobody Does It Better," "Lost Knight," "Knight Flight to Freedom," and some others.
7:00 right light rises
Some of those jumps where done by the dune buggy Flivver vehicle.
Sounds like you're a Knight Rider Historians fan👍
@@williammitchell4417 I am.
@@ClarkeMarek I'm a big fan also of AJ and Joe.
@@williammitchell4417 if I had the money, I'd be a patreon. I enjoy their stuff.
Wooooooo Yeahhhhh
I wish I can get the Kitt scanner to put it on my Volkswagen GETA gli
6:22 Michael: STOP THE CAR!
Google says they only used 23 Trans Ams to make the show and only one was rendered permanently inoperable, compared to Dukes of Hazzard destroying a rumored 300+ Chargers. Makes me wonder whether the Trans Am's durability was just that good, or if the stunt team was just better at their job.
For me, 40th anniversay is this year because I'm spanish and the serie got launched in 1984 ❤️
A melhor série de todos os tempos…. Com o melhor carro ❤…… Belos tempos……
2:20 It almost looked like Michael was drinking coffee
KITT and KARR turbo boosting into each other should've made the list.
Dang it, my favorite wasn't on here... S2 E3 when kitt jumps over the prison wall. Best buildup for a turbo boost.
I seem to remember as a young child there was one where KITT went into a tunnel and the other end of the tunnel collapsed or was blown up, then KITT turbo boosted up through the ceiling of the tunnel and out of the hill abov?
6:39
Michael, probably all us would react that way.
What season and episode is number 14?? 4:44
Just now realized the turbo boost sound effect is the same one that launches the Colonial Vipers in the other Glen Larson production, the OG Battlestar Galactica.
Bet youre right . As a kid knew that turbo boost stuff was bogus
Confirmed when Mom bought a turbo conquest starion
0:30 The camera placed at the landing site must have been broken.
Gotta go with No. 1 or 2 as my fave! But I was a little disappointed that the Turbo Boost with KARR wasn't on the list.
Can you do a video of Michael Knight’s different faces pulled during turbo boosts??
Hah, how to look constipated 32 different ways
STOP THE CAR !
These are better WOOOs than Ric Flair's 🤣
No love for KARR’s turbo boost’s? 😢
Knight Rider premiered on NBC September 26,1982. That means that it's not 40 years but 42 years ago.
7:40 was that a mistake? looked more like triple pursuit mode rather than turbo boost
no KITT VS KARR turbo boost?????
Wasn KARR the evil cousin version of kitt? Seem to remember an episode to that effect
@@gordocarbo KARR appeared twice in the original series run
You should do a video on THE FIGHT SCENES
Love a good MICHAEL KNIGHT FIGHT!!!
Missing Turbo Boost (both season 2)..
…over the “Longhorn” in “Custom KITT”
…into the apartment unit in “A Good Knight’s Work”
Wonder what the 6PM and 7DLA buttons do!
2 men did make a difference 1 was Dave Hasselhoff & Richard Basehart. I will always remember that very distinctive and distinguished voice Richard Basehart had even as Admiral Harryman Nelson creator and builder of Nuc
8:20 Yes, the best
8:03 Micheal press the Rocket Fire button instead of Turbo Boost. Weird.
Anyone know how they made the car jump? Ramps?
yep
The turbo boost from "A Good Knight's Work" should've been in there.
ID Love2 Jump Kitt AS Well AS The General LEE I 💕💕 LOVE BOTH OF Those Cars For Myself
if you pause at 7:00 K.I.T.T winked the 2 guys who tried to shoot KITT
I used to wish my car, bicycle or whatever I was in could Turbo Boost over
8:15
You have shown kitt tubo boost over the longhorn
