Fresh Video Footage(Jumping the burb & dirtbike)

Very nice! I want to take my Blazer next time we go up to Sand mountain... this is some motivation!

Ive been heading to my dad's shop at least 3 nights a week to try and get our buggy done while the weather is still nice...
 
I kept waiting for the burb to catch some air in the last video. The sequel delivered!! That was awesome! :bow:

On a semi-related note. I was reading something about the Fall Guy truck and I guess they trashed so many trucks in the 1st season they had to modify the engine position further back so it would land better. I guess it worked and they burned through fewer trucks for the scenes where the truck got airborne. :thinking:

Did you have any after effects from the jump? Granted the Fall Guy truck got more air and it was a pickup after all. I wonder how high you could jump a burb before you had damage? Is your burb all stock suspension?
 
Yea basically stock sup. It had fresh rancho 9000's. It broke one of the shock mounts off the front diff, but other than that no ill effects and I had my welder with so we romped all wknd
 
Cool video looks like fun.

I just watched a clip of it on Youtube. Wow, what a waste of a bunch of K20/30's. Poor trucks. What was the fascination of jumping everything on the TV in the late 70's early 80's? Crazy atleast they used real stuntmen too! No helmets, firesuits or gloves!
