That sucks. He needs to be driving something with a much lower CG if he likes making those maneuvers.

I must say, Jason you are sick!

This is like posting a video of people abusing animals on a PETA board! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" />

Ah, what a weenie! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/baby.gif" alt="" /> First thing that came to my mind as I watched it rolling over after what he was doing. The guy's probably never even wheeled the thing and he rolls it on a leisurely drive across wet sand! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" /> I agree, what a waste of a beautiful vehicle! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" /> Well, hopefully no one was hurt.

Wish I had that dumb <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/butwiggle.gif" alt="" />'s money. I agree; probably never wheeled before. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

a real bright light bulb <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/baby.gif" alt="" />

Let's load up the roof with sjhit to raise the CG a little higher and then go swerving.

but another good demo of how strong the 3rd gen 4Runner roof structure is.. no visible collapse seen in the video.

Somebody rolled one some time back in the sand and didn't break one single piece of glass including the sun roof or windshield...

I think that the soft and "giving in" nature of the sand also contributed to the rollover. It will basically simulate more flex in the sidewall of the tire and help it roll even more easier. Plus he had that stuff at the top of the truck which lowered the rollover resistance even more. lol
