Defender rollover

Seems to me that as the first 14 attempts were not put on camera, he was trying to be a hero in front of his mates and reverse then spin his car round and continue forward down the hill hence the sharp turn unfortunatly followed by a roll, it's an easy thing to do on the flat, reverse spin and drive out, but obviously with their level of EXPERTISE he felt that the laws of physics don't apply to legends, who, even though they state that they don't even know you guys who replied, reckon they could "smoke you".
Even if the engine did stop, even if the brakes completly failed, even if the ecu completly died, the engine would not lose compression, even if 4 of the five pistons ring just vanished a diesel would still have enough compression in the one cylinder to slowly roll backwards if he was in first low, even if his motor completly carked it it would likley have locked up causeing him to stop completly.
Speed does'nt kill, the Di*&head behind the wheel does.

Wortho,
Never thought of that scenario. Quite plausible too. That just makes him an even bigger tosser. Smoke all the guys on this forum, I think not, not going by that video anyway.

Well he/she could smoke you all coz he / she is an absolute legend, he/she says so him/her self.

Why, aren't you convinced yet ?!



LOL

OK I am sorry (in my best submissive voice).:o

Last person I had carry on like that at a rope rescue session ended up hanging sideways on a cliff very sore part way down. Way over confident. In hindsight should have banned him from a descent.
:twisted: :twisted:

Pfft that wouldn't have been nearly as much fun.

This has hit 10 pages :eek: My longest thread ever :)

That makes a bit of sense because what really stuck in my mind was the fact that the guy kept on filming rather than drop the camera and help out his mates.
Another weird thing is, if the hill was that steep that a Landy couldnt climb it then shouldnt it have rolled a bit more rather than just flipping over.
