These are the same guys who take FWD econo sedans going 100mph and do 360 spins down the road while maintaining control. I think we now know where good recruits for stuntmen are.
I’m not sure stability control would help here. (By “help” I meen keep the guy on 4 wheels.) Stability control makes sure the vehicle doesn’t slide sideways and then “trip” over the curb. This guy wasn’t sliding very much. He mostly went up on end due to high center of gravity and going around a tight curve after loading the weight on the other wheels first.
My Arabic’s a bit too rusty to translate the final splash screen without my dictionary, which is a work. I’ll give it a go tomorrow evening (my workplace blocks YouTube).
WTF?!
Hmm, thats who will buy Hummer
ugh, looking at the camera is such a faux pas.
So THAT’S why the NHTSA needed more time for rollover testing….
You see, that’s why you shouldn’t get a car with traction control – how could you ever sharpen your knives?

Oh, Bullwinkle….that trick NEVER works!
A good trick for when you’re late to a beheading.
What a colorful lot.
Cicero : I thought that was a soda can for some reason!
I thought that was the “How To” video for the NHTSA Fishhook test.
It IS a soda can.
Shoot me down, but I have to applaud the driver (and the gutsy passenger). That has to take some skill.
Are those tires almost flat? Seems the only way he’d be able to pull that off is if they were extremely low..
See? Now if every SUV driver had the training that guy did, you’d never have to worry about rollovers.
Unfortunately quasi, that guy learned that trick by actually rolling a few of them before he figured it out. Dad, just bought him a new one.
My guys are crazier than your guys:
Search for the Saudi drift videos. Front wheel drive “drifting”!

Is this the Arabian Elk Test?

that is awesome.
Saudi Arabians are fucking crazy. Look up “saudi drifting” on YouTube and you’ll see what I mean.
The decadence (or decay) of a society is illuminated by the actions of its young adults.
I just made that up, but I’m sure it has been said before.
“It’s all fun and games, until somebody loses an arm!”
“It’s all fun and games, until somebody loses an arm!”
Then it’s a fun game of “find the missing arm.”
It must be the heat
