    How Quickly things can go wrong.....

    Not sure if a re-post.


    Fun turns to panic very quickly.


    Will make me think twice on my next water crossing..

          Darwinism had plenty of opportunities during that effort.

          Complete bunch of fools.

                I did an 4WD course a few weeks ago and this vid would have been a useful tool to demonstrate the wrong way to recover a vehicle.

                        Hmm. yes i agree with all of you. one thing i was pleased to see was a bunch of mates sticking together and helping as much as they could in the situation given. if you have ever had water up to you steering wheel inside the cab of your car, you would know how common sense, structure and patience just dissapears in the moment and the survival instinct kicks in... Giving and following instructions in a situation like that is very difficult, but yes them russians totally ballzed that up! BTW i dont drink 3ltrs of vodka b4 i go offroading either!
