I have zero desire to do that even if me, my ride, and everything else survive the experience.
For the pets that "NOPE" the fuck out after the thing flips over. |

They acted so surprised when the vehicles flipped. I mean, really? That surprised you?
And WTF are the dogs doing in there? If a mutt was killed by the jeep rolling over him, the owners have no right to be upset about it. |

After living in Utah where rock crawling is a huge deal, yes, sometimes rock crawlers are crazy. Some even go all out and build monsters.

If someone started with a "Corvette Fails," video, they'd probably wonder the same thing.
Offroading isn't all that different from open tracking. Know your limits, maintain your vehicle, etc. |

Personally, I don't take my dog because I don't want him going through the brush and picking up fleas or ticks, or meeting an unfriendly serpent. No safety issue when he's inside the vehicle. He wears a safety harness in the car so he's basically wearing a seatbelt.
Considering the higher speeds and vastly larger number of morons on city streets, Fido is probably safer going rock crawling. |
