Imagine an RME group effort rescue operation... if we were all Russian

I think it might go something like this:

(I know we have a 'funny video thread' thread, but I thought this video might generate a discussion of its own... so I made this thread.)

I like the cab on the dozer!

 

[jeeper]

Wow. Just wow.
So much potential, yet so much fail.

On the plus side, the video is edited almost as well as if sixstringsteve had done it.

and it was a pretty area

I wish the audio of them talking wasn't so garbled. In the beginning he tells his wife/girlfriend to get out of the car. Then when the tractor first appears, someone asks the guy with the camera if he's filming it.

Funny stuff, and all if those vehicles were a common sight in Russia.

It almost looked to me like he was trying to get stuck. The tractor too.

I like that Patrol. That'd sell here, wouldn't it?

I thought I saw a solid axle under that Patrol?

That patrol is a wheeling machine. It took so much to finally get stuck.

And heard the rattle of a diesel! The non-US spec Patrol is badass... they probably wouldn't sell very well, due to a solid front axle, diesel engine & manual transmission... Most Americans want SUV's/trucks that ride like cars and have automatics, let alone the 'noise' of a diesel.

That's weird. The new Patrol/QX56 is independent on all four corners, but I thought the 5th gen had an independent front too. I guess not.

Apparently tread lightly doesnt apply to them?

That patrol is pretty cool tho

 

[lewis]

brings back memories of when I was 16 except the dozer was a loader that I got stuck too. in all I had 2 pickups, a tractor and a loader ask buried

 

[skiboarder]

did anyone notice the oven mits that the tractor driver was wearing? Also the track on the dozer looked pretty gnarly.

Bahahahaha, tread lightly. That's funny. This is Russia, land of the free. In my collective 3 years living there, they can go just about anywhere and do anything.

Tread heavily, then?

 

[mbryson]

Tread heavily, then?

With vodka
