Without my wife holding my hand I can not access any site not saved to my computer. I know I'm registered in some form to Hot Boat pics but ofcourse I am far too stupid to remember in what aspect. :stupid  :break  :D

I think luck and skill both played a part in that one. You just have to keep your sh!* together until it's over. That is an AWESOME clip :good

My rule of thumb is too pin it if I'm going over. You would be ammazed what I have saved. I even put it back on its wheels one time. So I would have likely done the same thing. But most of the seat would be ingested through my a$$ if it was that high on a sand dune. That is just nuts!

When he was on his side he was dead nuts perpendicular to the hill so if not for the heavy throttle when the wheels came back down he would have rolled a long, long ways being he was just a few feet from the crest.
.
Anyone know what hill or where that was at? Thats a big hill.

Damn lucky, but it would have been a better video if it went the other way.

It's probably more skill than luck, he's probably done it a few times, I've done the same thing in a buggy more than once!..

We're testing a new off road buggy for access into remote areas.  Real low center of gravity and it just about climbs trees.  I guess the Israeli army uses them.  It'll turn on a hillside like that all day long and neve turn over.  I love new toys.
