look before you leap
was looking at some stuff this guy has on his site about his LR3 and saw this video. Crash could have been a lot worse. Lessons to be learned: use less throttle and check out whats in front of you on foot if you can't see it.

I like the camera guy's comment right before that Darwin Award audition:
"Yep, he sure is a good driver!! "

Re: look before you leap
Yeah, I watched the air jack thing. And then i saw him pull out the boards that he put under his tires to get traction. He must keep those things on the rack or something, they are huge. The guys on the video sound so country, "yep, heda made it if he had lockers".

Yeah, he was treading lightly.... not.
Bummer darwin didn't help out on that one. He deserved what he got.
