H O L Y  C R A P . I think this is the hardest impact I've seen on video (for slow rock crawling).

Here it is embedded locally:

Do you realize how easy that rock is if he was like a 5spd & 200:1 or lower? I mean I honestly could get out of my truck and use my camera to record it Crawl up that without a driver. What an INSANE difference.

Regardless of how steep it really is, either my truck would slowly Crawl up it without a driver, or it would just sit on the steep slope and slowly spin all 4 tires in one spot. That is a HUGE difference. Thank goodness for Marlin Crawler

You know, of course he should have never stayed on the throttle, but I for some reason don't find this funny. I feel really sorry for the guy and for his rig. :dunno: I must be getting old or something

Nope! Never gamble with money you can't afford to lose...never climb rocks in a truck you can't afford to wreck!

That truck was not equipped to try a climb like that. That was extreme.

It was the same as that video we have of BodyDamage. ONce he bounced twice he should have backed off.

I also remember something very similar on Holcomb, I think the Mammoth's were in attendance for that flop. Scott got lucky he didn't go end over like that.

Awesome!!! :gap:     The only thing I don't like about my crawl box is, if you do get into that situation, it's really hard to reverse out of it.  You just can't go fast enough!

Yeah but in that one you wouldn't need to throw it into reverse. Push in the clutch and it would drop down quicker than it went up. Even if it was an auto, lift on the throttle and it would loose the quick momentum and settle again.

Just a case of someone trying something they weren't ready for.

Damn i've seen this on two boards now and it never get's old. I get the feeling that even if he would have crawled up it, stock cases or not, he would have made it. There were to many people around for it to be just a crawl over, looks like he was trying to pull an evil kenival. Sometimes those jeep guys have a little bit to big of heads. Just because its a jeep doesn't mean its capable of jumpin the Grand canyon. :) Can anyone say Clutch/Brake. but wtf do i know i drive a yota. :)

Thats true.  I've rolled twice where I tried to back out but it was just too late. :smack:
