You know, you're better man. I would've asked for a safety strap a short while into it.
You know at the time I didn't even think about that. it worked in the end though.

Ya and they say the rocks are safer.

My next video's will be of my Baja 500 prerun, I'll work on them next week after the D.V. run.

Re: Jeshua's FJ Build up

Oh my! My hands are shaking worse now than that day!! And I know how things turn out watching it. Ha ha!
Jeshua, you did a fantastic job even with me micro-managing your every move. What a bossy bee-otch I can be!

Terra firma never felt so good, huh?

Couldn't of done it with out your micro-managing, I am glad you were there to get me out of that mess thats for sure.


What did I tell you about using big words like "terra firma".

I haven't heard that used in a long time and took a min. to remember what it is. But yes the ground was the best thing ever on that day.

Ha ha! Sorry. I'll go add that to the 'Small Words' thread. LOL!

That was a hell of a good day...no pun intended.

Was that you in the video? With the backlight, I couldn't see. You sounded like a 18 y/o.

In situations like this, would flags have helped in allowing Josh to see better? Most of the time the hood is in the way. Camera in the bumpers would be good too. Josh, I had to watch a few more times. Awesome.
