A colleague of mine had to recover the body of a guy who attempted a similar crossing in a landrover but he wasn't so lucky. His dog drowned too, we assume, as it was never found.
nice powerslide lol, surprising the weight of a landy still gets pushed as easy by the river. always a good idea to lock your diff just incase that happens lol
It's a nice ford when it's got a bit of water flowing through it. You have to be careful as it flows quite quick when in flood (as shown here!) Sadly it's been really badly abused with some people being retards (I'm not suggesting it's those in the video) and driving all over the banks and into the nearby field, turning it into a real mess at times. :-(
re: Codprawn You'd be surprised how quickly these machines fill up even with the doors closed! My '89 110 couldn't hold out a wash with a non-power hose. Still, all part of the character.
"A ford is a place in a watercourse (most commonly a stream or river) that is shallow enough to be crossed by wading, on horseback, or in a wheeled vehicle."
Now, the maker of this video didn't QUITE get that right, but thats perfectly forgiveable, in fact I myself might have called it a ford...
But its not a Fjord...you should know what a fjord looks like...
