Have you ever wondered how the PGA manages to get a car floating on water? I always have and now we have our answer.

The PGA produced a video that has solved the mystery.

As explained in the video, the car is driven onto a pontoon style raft, with the help of scuba divers.

Once the car is in position, they lock in two polls that will settle into the mud. The hydraulic levers are leveled out until each tire of the car has touched the water.

Now that you have seen how it's done, it loses the magical appeal but it's still pretty cool that it appears to be floating.
