Yep, what you see above is the unmistakable mug of Zach Galifianakis hopping into a Mercedes E-Cabrio. Shot at a closed freeway in Orange County, the spy video after the jump takes you behind the scene of The Hangover 3. In this scene, apparently, Zach causes a massive crash while towing a trailer with his convertible Mercedes. Looks fun!
Using a drop-top Mercedes in the new film is kind of an homage to the first Hangover and the classic Mercedes 220SE that starred in it. It also means Mercedes is probably sponsoring the new installment:
StarzUncut.com who obtained this footage also has some details on the scene you might be interested in:
“Allen was driving down the freeway in a brand new Mercedes-Benz E350 Convertible. The Mercedes had the license plate DADSBOI, which is funny since Allan’s parents are always spoiling him. In the back he was pulling what appeared to be an animal trailer. Later I found out the trailer is actually for a giraffe that gets loose on the freeway after Allen crashes his car into a semi truck. It was crazy, there was tons of smoke and the cargo from the semi truck spilled all over the freeway. After the crash I saw Zach Galifianakis running from the scene. The cops had the whole place on lockdown and tried to make sure nobody could see what was going on. I was able to get some footage of the crash right before a motorcycle cop made me leave.”
