Range rover roll over on deep creek?

It's almost too steep to walk without falling over.

I think the video does do it justice, The rangey rolls at least half a dozen times even picking up speed. Without the rollover, yeah, hard to tell.

He just needed to back off the throttle a bit and keep the front wheels on the ground

So are you saying when they get some money they will make it safe and re open it ?

How many here can honestly say they have been taught how to do a reverse stall recovery? And I'm talking by a recognised instructor - not by a mate who was shown by a mate who was shown by .....................?!

Still not a 100 % guarantee I know - but if he had of known how to do it properly - there's a good chance he would not have rolled back and got side on to the hill.

As I said there is more to it than that. I have been asked by the guy in the know to keep it to myself but the track should be open soon without any serious modifications.

Yes I was taught by an accredited 4x4 instructor, it part of your membership to do a 4x4 course.
well thats TLCCV's policy.
Most of my mates I 4x4 with are instructors, hard to pick up bad habits

Where he ended up the angle was all wrong, think it was doomed from the beginning,
another line a few more PSI out of the tyres who knows he may have made it.
but thats hindsight and most have that in spades lol

I was taught when I was a member of the RRCV (Rangie Club). Last time I did the course was about 4 or 5 years ago so maybe it's time for a refresher.....
