I think there is something wrong with those videos.

Yeah, never mind that they're reposts but for the fact of sheer idiocy of not thinking safety first.


I was one of them last year, but it was accidental.

The STUPID factor is high in them all, but I'm sold on a roll cage (and was before seeing those).

while we're on the topic of roll cages, does anyone sell a cage for the rear on a blazer? ive seen plenty of "roll bars" but i want one that goes behind the front seats and stays high all the way to the tailgate then goes down...and goes to the frame of course.

That was quite a roll. If they were watching their spotter it may not have happened.

This guy is a dumbass. He just kept in the gas and was not watching his spotter. He may have had the Sun in his eyes but if you feel your front end go up abruplty get out of the peddle.

That was actually a girl. I remember that one. Story was that she couldn't reach the brake pedal enough to get on it with enough pressure when the front end lifted and she went back into the seat. A/T and 4low and not being close enough to the pedals.

This is one of the reasons I move my seat forward when I wheel.

I had a really bad roll a few years ago. 5 hard rolls down a ravine in my Early Bronco. I had just replaced the old cage the weekend before because it had been rolled on three times.

x2 Anyone know a place that makes nice cages for blazer. I would like to build my own, but with a newborn in the house i do not have that much time. Thanks

I saw that bronco sitting in Rangely CO the guy got a new one moved all the stuff in the old to the new and built a cage. Lots of money in the new one. I believe the new one is Broke now! The girl that rolled wheeled the rest of the weekend in that JEEP. That is all. Oh and I too must do a Cage soon

I'm pretty sure most rolls are accidental

that video with the blazer flying down the lions back (i think thats what that is called) was on tv not to long ago the story behind it was he lost his brakes but i guess you gotta be smart enough to throw it into granny or to throw it into first on an auto
