Who among us lives life a quarter mile at a time?
But what moments from the Fast & Furious franchise are actually deserving of iconic status?

Despite Gisele’s overpowering come-ons, Dom stays true to Letty even in her absence.
The man might have rizz, but he’s also faithful.
Race Through the Vatican - Fast X (2023)
Mamma mia!

Of course, it’s up to Dom in a Charger to stop it somehow.
All the while, Dante steals the movie with hisincredibleopera impression.
Talk about blood being thicker than water.

Gisele’s Sacrifice - Fast & Furious 6 (2013)
Call it an act of love.
The pain would lead Han to Tokyo and, well, you know what happens next.
Dom vs. Everyone - The Fate of the Furious (2017)
Dominic Toretto has gone rogue.

Eventually, this pits Dom against his own “Family.”
That’s not the only standout moment in the sequence, however.
Just minutes earlier, Cipher controls a garage full of cars to stop her target.

But as it turns out, it was a targeted assassination.
Out for revenge, Deckard T-bones Han as a warning to Toretto that he’s coming.
And with that, the Fast Saga loses one of its best characters - or so everyone thought.

Heat-Seeking Missiles, on Ice!
That’s the “Furious” part of Fast & Furious, you know.
Hobbs vs. Shaw - Furious 7 (2015)
Hacking into the computer of Luke Hobbs is one thing.

Sitting in his chair is another.
Dom Saves Letty - Fast & Furious 6 (2013)
Look, up in the sky!
It’s a bird!

It’s a plane!
It’s Dom Toretto flying through the air to save Letty like he’s Superman.
That line alone is top tier.

Dedicated fans recognize the moment wraps up a major story arc for Dom.
It wasn’t until 2021’s F9 that fans finally saw this moment for themselves.
Nowthat’show you introduce a new franchise villain.

In Tokyo Drift, Han is shrouded in mystery.
But only through the later movies do we see exactly what - and whom - Han is talking about.
2 Fast 2 Furious lives up to its kooky title with a stand-out sequence that’s just so unforgettable.

How can a single garage hold that many cars?
How do they not all crash into each other?
It’s a killer moment that forever cemented the vibe of Fast & Furious forever.

Danza Kuduro - Fast Five (2011)
What would you do with $100 million?
(And because it’s 2011, of course the song that plays is “Danza Kuduro.")
While some of them choose to enjoy the spoils, others settle down.

In the case of newly minted couple Han and Gisele, they’re looking ahead.
Too bad they don’t ever get to make it there.
“This Is Brazil!”

But like a true main event match for WWE, there’s a lot of smack talking first.
Hobbs might have the law on his side.
But as Dom reminds him, “This is Brazil!”

But having a home is even better.
(Albeit still rich as hell.)
Of the many different barbecue scenes in the franchise, this one just hits differently.

The loss of Gisele casts a somber shadow over the mood.
But everyone is glad to be home.
And as Roman puts it in his message of grace: Thank heaven for fast cars.

(Fun fact: Dwayne Johnson’s comeback about Tyrese Gibson’s “big ass forehead” was unscripted.
Ludacris spitting out his beer was a genuine reaction.)
Cue a brand new franchise.

The Free Fall - Fast Five (2011)
Arguably, it’s the moment that changed everything.
Observe the movie cutting to total silence, with just the windy whispers of air scoring the moment.
In the real world, this would kill Dom and Brian.

Always remember: Winning’s winning.
