Yes I rolled in moab (video)

[MR.CJ-7]

In my humblest of opinions I thought it was too much speed. It sucks you rolled, but at least the camera man/woman kept filming.

 

[Houndoc]

Not an expert but it looks like too much speed was the culprit.

That was my thought.

Wanting to learn from the mistakes from others, would love to seem some thoughts on this little tumble. What went wrong? What could have been done? and the like. Share your wisdom.

Well as you can see I was spinning my tires up the first ledge. This was not the first attempt. Before this I made it onto the first ledge and stopped. But when I pushed in the clutch to start up the second ledge I rolled back off of it. So I backed off and got another approach and gave it the juice, as I was going up it I figured I would get my tires started on the second ledge before letting off and that's where I went wrong. To much throttle and before I knew I was looking at the sky.

Good video.

I have a YJ grill with a radiator attached to it. Ummm, $100 for the package? Has headlights and turn signals in it too. Even has the sweet light gaurd thingies on it, I think...

Ouchie!
Good to know your jeep wasn't too bad... question is, are you ok?
Any whiplash? Any concussions? Bruises? Breaks? Sure hope you're ok...

Pfff... My spotter's a nurse, and he usually just sighs and tells me to drive it back onto it's wheels!

 

[embabe]

That's because your nurse is a guy!

Are you sayin us guys don't care? Cuz we care...

[embabe]

I still want to know if he's ok... I guess it's just in my nature.... besides, I know how to fix broken bodies, broken jeeps I'm not too good at....

I think it's pretty obvious from the video that he isn't allright

Not a scratch, just a little shook up and I think every muscle in my body went tense. The new roll cage really paid off I think the windshield would have been in my lap if not for it. (I can thank Poision Spyder since I kind of copied thier design)
Thanks for asking

I don't think that thing has a name, if I'm correct you can go off to the right where more tire tracks are right? It should be named now..

Yes there are more tracks to the right but up above it is a spike painted on the rocks leading down to it.
