Wow. Never seen so much 4x4 wrong in one video. Authorities and greenies would have a field day documenting everything on there.
Seriously! The mind boggles on how stupid and/or ignorant some people are.
Apart from the muppets that was a good video @Nessie
Unfortunately people buy a FWD and think they're right to go anywhere. Its a steep learning curve as things can go bad in an instant. As an example, at a meet up at Beachport-Robe we found a new Amarok stuck on the beach. They had road pressure in their tyres and had no clue what they were doing. But to be fair, only since I joined the forum and FWD club did I learn the way I was performing recoveries was dead wrong.
As they are a vehicle designed to do a specialist (and sometimes very dangerous) task, I think it is the responsibility of the manufacturers and dealers of FWDs to advise or teach people how to use them, or at least subsidise a basic FWD driving and recovery course for them.
I know I will step on some toes with this statement, but after re-reading and watching the vids in this thread, I am starting to think that to drive a proper FWD or SUV that is meant for offroad use, you should have a special endorsement on your licence after completing such a course.
Nice video mate
I'm just going to leave this here. Lucky his arm got in the way!! A Dampener would have works too without the mess

Wow! Looks like it was rope too and not steel cable.
I did not think the danger was there when using rope. Clearly there is!
