Most steep, asphalt drive on the world

[czajna]

WHERE? How many %?

I did a race one time with a 90% brick climb in it one time. We all
crashed into it like it was a wall.

I've seen that happen lots of times. Mostly in Road Runner cartoons.

Upper left picture, in the background. The remaining pictures are less
interesting.

Fillmore, in SF, is between 19 and 26% steep.

I know that Filbert street in San Francisco has held the record,
along with 22nd street (I think). The grade is about 33%, and the
streets are one way down. You can find a video of someone rollerskating
down Filbert on this website (interestingly, they are not aware of
the record):

Filbert is creepy because in most cars as you pull up to the edge, you
can't see any road in front of you over the hood.

David Letterman visited Filbert Street in 2001 and rolled a bunch of
stuff down it -- pumpkins or huge zucchini/squash? Maybe super balls
or ping pong balls?

I cannot say however if Main Screen are Turn On, or Set us Up the Bomb.
Damn.

The key is to not "pull up to the edge". Hit that sucker at speed.
