Not a Jeep, as the caption suggests, but a good reminder of why it's a good idea to stay out of a vehicle's roll zone... or wear shoes you can run fast in.

Anybody know anything about this clip? I assume the driver was okay, but there's no story to go with the vid.

That looks like Potato Salad Hill in Moab. We were all gathered at the top and had to run like hell when Davidtaco gave it the skinny.

I will search for that vid.

dear god ... quite a series of rolls

notice the numerous people hooting and hollering, and only the one person asking "is he ok?"

That was a crazy roll. Good thing he had the exo-cage! I would assume the driver was ok since the people started to disperse at the end of the video.

This is right before we all started to run

That's crazy! The driver didn't even give the crawler a chance to do the job. Just mashed the pedal and crabbed walked right off the rocks.

Bunch of knecks hooting and hollering...

I've been there twice, that place is hard to crawl. It takes some gas to make it up that bump.

I'd be pissed if I was on that crew. It really sucks when everybody is hooting and hollering that you just rolled 100' down the hill. What if somebody actually got hurt? Does that make it even better?

 

[mudferret]

Was that a human head rolling by someones feet when they started running over to look at the carnage?

True. Seems the guy was alert and responding to 'em, otherwise they probably would've been a little more frantic.

I was surprised people were cheering and/or laughing as long as they were. I think I would've been saying holy shit a lot.

It was a helmet. It might've had a head in it, though, which woulda been cool. Maybe that's what the crowd was cheering at, and why the guy running past it to look at the truck stepped around it so gingerly. He was all, "Ewwwww, gross."

 

[mudferret]

LOL! I just envisioned the crowd cheering at a rolling head, was quite funny. Try it.

heck yeah, i feel the same ... my first thought would definitely be "oh fuck, i hope he can walk away from this"

Those people are sick. Who the hell cheers a bodyless head? I guess it doesn't really matter. I still chuckled.

 

[WILD YOTE]

the thing that gets me is the scream right at the end...

 

[synovus]

I think someone had just pointed out the head to her.
