A pressure contained car cannon for the launching and/or flipping of vehicles, or other large-scale props, for use in motion picture action sequences. The device consists of a car canon having a barrel, a cannon foot and a piston. By way of pneumatic pressure, force is achieved by transferring energy from the piston to the cannon foot, resulting in a push force which expels the cannon foot from the cannon barrel, launching the vehicle on its desired trajectory while keeping most all vapor and smoke contained within the barrel itself.
