The intended flop would have just put him to his side at about 45 degrees, We spent hours cleaning up after the accident trying to leave only tire tracks.

If you're dumb enough of a driver to roll on hell's gate which any stock unlocked jeep can drive you dont belong there EH?!

[gregsheridan]

If you read down in the comments I wrote that he intended to flop on his side. We're still not sure what happened to stick the throttle. He already drove up and down before this happened. I have not seen a stock unlocked jeep drive this but I have seen a Toyota FJ Cruiser. One mistake and they would be very sorry they tried. Ithink this is best left to people who don't mind some scars on thier vehicle and have proper safety gear just in case.

@gregsheridan I've seen unlocked TJs do it on 33s. I've driven up it twice with just LSDs in the axles, once on 33s and once on 35s.

@nw1911guy This is not an obstacle where tire size would matter. Just the right line, some axle articulation especially without LSD or lockers. Like I said in a previous post, they had driven up and down before and were just going to try a stunt that did not go as planned. It had nothing to do with vehicle or driver capability. The driver drove this back in the 90's in a Mini truck with 33's and has been there many times since.

We never found out why the throttle stuck it did not go off til he turned the ignition off.

I bet the guy waiting at the bottom pissed his pants.

Is that a Cherokee based buggy

[crjanow]

all you needed was more throttle during the roll and it would have righted itself

"that roll cage seems pretty resilient"

Thanks for coming to Moab and having fun with the obstacles.If I believe what you say it being intentional,I cant blame you for trying. crawl on!

[japanowner]

Wondering if he can try that again, maybe he'll be decapitated this time.

With any luck.

[mxchamps]

No wonder. he is canadian!

If he "intended" to flop, then it's jerks like this that gets parks closed by leaving spills, and tearing up the terrain.
