Caught the Bug
This is why I chose carefully who I wheel with and follow the rule of never drinking on the trail.

 
Yeah, not a great idea to have your spotter with a beer in one hand and giving directions with the other. I enjoy a beer as much as the next guy but tend to wait till the wheelin is done. I would rather roll my camp chair then my rig. :cheesy:
 
You have got to be kidding me. I honestly thought he was going over 4 secs in. After laying it on its side at 3:13, you would have thought that the driver would have wanted a new spotter. This video was just too stupid to watch - I just hope stupidity isn't contageous :naw:
 
I just could not watch the entire thing, between the spotter not being clear and the driver not listening it was too painful to watch. Poor Jeep. :rolleyes2:
 
That was stupid the guy drinking the beer didn't even care he just stood there pretty much set him up on purpose
 
where's the video of them recovering that thing?:eek: Have to get the popcorn out for that one,lol

We are Jeep..Resistance is futile..
 
Thats fucked up. I'm thinking he really didn't know what he was doing or really drunk or both. Every one was yelling at the same time, he probably didn't know what to do.

I'll be the first one to call myself an amateur, but even I wouldn't have picked that line. Having 800 people all yelling directions at the driver is terrible, especially when the spotter is the QUIETEST guy there, and he's just making silent hand gestures and providing no real information.

And most importantly, keep the booze off the trail. You make it through a day of obstacles like that without rolling your Jeep, then you celebrate with a couple beers afterward. People put too much time, effort, and money into their Jeeps to waste them like this.
 
I can't tell if the driver was drunk, so I'm just leaving that out.
Too many spotters shouting directions. If the spotter was that bad, someone else should have stepped in. That was obvious when the spotter started taking directions from the crowd.
Spotter he had, while not the best, would have helped if the driver had listened.
Didn't do any surveying of the trail before hand. If he had, he would have known more about the situation he was in.

It was a good show, and I'm always glad watching someone else sacrifice their rigs to the gods of stupidity. :)
