The comments... just bring the hate, kuz we know you're jealous! :D

Ok so I’m not the only one who watches this guy ....

Harsh lesson for the "Owner"...Alone, Off road with summer tires on & no winch ?

Good Question, I doubt it.
I would hope most folks at KJ Country are more informed & know not to go out alone without proper tires & recovery gear.
I feel for the owner. That's a bad roll over, luckily he was not hurt by the looks of it.

and no front driveshaft either.
I, and everyone in the video, was impressed he got as far as he did.

You can do quite a bit in 2wd, more than a lot of folks will give you credit for. But, you also gotta know what not to do...
This. I had this happen to me on a trail where I thought I was in 4wd when actually was not , for quite some time. ( 4wd lever disengages all the time for some reason)

from watching the vid and listening to the talk at the site, it looks like he just got unlucky and ground yeeted out from under the front tire. something that could happen to any of us really.

WOW! That guy was really in a jam!

I watched that video yesterday. It's a new one, I think.

I watch them all the time. They are just south of me.

So is Fab Rats.

That Liberty got too close to the edge and the edge collapsed, causing him to roll sideways onto his top.

There are a lot of trails around here like that. Better done on the ATV. I'll never take my Liberty out there or any trail like that.

Had a buddy that this happened to in Daniel Boone National Forest
3 KJs had already went past this one area, he came up, ground gave away, he rolled down over the hill into the creek, upside down

I’ve driven this exact trail multiple times with no lift or 4wd or fancy tires. (One year in a rental Pilot!) This fella here drove too close to the edge which was undercut by flash flooding.

No winch was gonna save him. The “trees” there are too weak and have shallow root systems.

This was merely a bit of bad luck on a (now) notoriously difficult and narrow “road”. Which up until 2020 was commonly driven.

Currently, BLM closed this stretch down as the “road” is now mostly washed out.

You might get through it on a mountain bike.
