Title: A nightmare roll over. Saved by the cage.
Post by: DOUG on May 30, 2009, 06:07:22 PM

These folks were out for a little ride with thier group, and made a simple mistake on a hill climb.  His tires spin a little, and he chooses to back up a little, but at a back side hill angle, and the downhill rear tire falls in a little hole, and the rest is on tape.  REAL UGLY way to roll.

A good cage and secure your stuff...a good cage and seat belts wont help you when your 40lb tool box cleans your clock. Rubber bungee cords are insufficient.

Even tho the guy was able to drive off I love it how the camera guy kept saying it's drivable get in it and go all while looking through the camera.

But you gotta love a jeep, 2 roles and still drive it home ;D
