That is Hell's Gate on the Hell's Revenge trail in Moab. We had a few people do it last year. It is an optional section on the trail. It is a repost.

It's no different that the video of the stuck H2 and the Wranglers driving by it. I think someone posted it a long while back for laughs (might have been another forum). Same stuff, stupid driver, not vehicle.

You can blame the driver for most of it, like not getting off the gas, and being a little out of there league. But if you notice the spotter didn't have a clue either, one second he's waving one direction then when sees the jeep start lifting he realizes he messed up and starts waving the other way. Inexperience imo is what caused that jeep to rolley polley down the hill!!! What would've been really funny would be the recorded conversation of the driver and their insurance company, how would you even explain that to an insurance company???? :lol:

if you go to Toy By Troy web site and check it out you can get the whole story
I will say this the driver is a she and even after that roll she wheeled on

This video along with seeing on happen just the same is why I have the same cage in my TJ and after I have seen a few roll's end over end as well as side flops I would rather be in a TJ than a KJ ,or any other rig for that mater, any day

sure she messed up but one day every body who wheels will
It is not a matter of if but when
