The spotter tells her to drive right in to the hi side and the momentum will carry you right through. I think thats what he said. As sick as this makes me feel, i,m gonna watch the video one more time. But first, one thought, It looks like she was the first to attempt. If she was the most experienced driver in that group they were doomed from the start. When I ride trails with my dirt bike, the guy with the best skills takes lead on all obstacles. My two cents

Oh my. That hurts....even sitting here. That Wrangler held up fantastically. Another example of how well Wrangler's are made, regardless of the little annoyances that people complain about. Good to see she wasn't critically injured. No seat belt? That's nuts. Luckily none of the .... folks... wandering around the fall line were run over.

How likely is a unlimited JK to make it through the Pinyon Sqeeze without damage? I'd love to try this hill, but that squeeze is pretty crazy.
I've been down it twice. Just about every JK I've seen scrapes the passenger rear fender. Not a big deal unless you've got a Sahara.
