That's nothing, Cambridge students once put an Austin Seven on top of a 70' building :

Re: Top car!
That car is sitting at a pretty unsafe angle on that drum. And hey, what if it had crumpled under the load, as cans are inclined to do? I'm just shuddering to think of the personal risk to the idiots who put it there.
And I speak as somebody who, in my student days, once helped to lower a grand piano off a four foot high stage. (Somebody had left it up there, and it was in the way of our play rehearsal. ) About half a tonne, and ten of us to lower it. One slip, and we could/would very likely have had a fatality.
