Worst Moab Hot Tub crash EVER?

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ส.ค. 2024
- Our trip to Moab wasnt all perfect. Our friend ended up trying devils hot tub in his polaris turbo s and it didnt go so well. This is one of the most intense crashes ive seen and was scary for a second. Everyone was ok.
This was 100% him trying to avoid hitting everyone. This is why you never stand too close at the hot tub.
Unless you are James Brown (Eddie Murphy skit on SNL). Spectators on any track or trail are a bad idea. I race dirt bikes off-road and aim for them in the crappy sections.....you know they aren’t standing in mud lol.
He wasn't going to save that regardless of the spectators, he was going over regardless.
@@andrewjames5373 Agree
Yup if he gunned it on the rim and drove out he would have made it.
@@andrewjames5373 No he rolled in because he stopped.
Keeping your arms inside the vehicle is a good idea too....................
for sure
Yeah I saw that
Getting ready to type the same thing. First thing I tell anyone getting in my SXS is to never let go of the grab bar if we turn over. Never, ever, ever, but I know, its instinct. He was so close to saving it
Thought for sure that arm was gone .
Yeah when I saw it from the first angle I figured since he was OK he must have pulled his arm back in as soon as he rolled, but then I saw it from the other angle and it looks more like he just got lucky that the points of contact were elsewhere. I agree with the people saying he probably could have made it out all the way if it weren't for the spectators but that arm out the window tells me he's the kind of guy who freezes up in those situations.
Looks to me like that dude sacrificed himself for the people on the ledge. I betchu he was gonna jerk left, but refrained so he didn't mow those people/kids down. Hero
If they were not standing there he might have ben able to bowl that out.
For sure. Watched a ton of videos of that over the years though and never saw anyone come out that way.
@@bigred1032 Probably none went back in that way either.
Too many spectators in the way.
Spectators are watching from the way out so try to avoid and go back inside.
Yea he had it had to stop because the plp thats what it looked like to me
most drivers don’t screw up that bad by doing a whole 180 towards the spectators
That’s what I was thinking stay in it and bail out but people in the way killed it.
damn skippy had he not have to let off the gas at the end he might have been able to keep moving...........i was thinking he should have punched it right at the end maybe......toilet bowled it.....you ever watch the dirt bikes inside a huge sphere riding in circles and upside down.
This hero fell in the pit to avoid turning into the spectators.
right? wtf was that. he could have made it out but had to stop due to the spectators.
That's not being a hero. Doing dangerous things for fun, while not hitting other people doing dangerous things for fun isn't heroism. It's just fast thinking
Your avatar is death to our eyes
@@jasonjinx you can trust me
Bingo that's exactly what he did...they shouldn't have been in his way.
I must be getting old - because now when I jump in my rig, I just want to have fun but my idea of fun is not destroying a $30K rig that I worked my ass off to buy. You'all must have a lot of $.
Yeah I’m 23. I’ve wanted one of these machines since I was a teenage and finally got one. And instead of being crazy with it, I’ve been babying my machine and stay on good trails. People are insane
Money is relative. Me thinks they should've just left the stupid thing in that hole, like "Fuck that shit". Let some other loser to pull it out.
That's most of the Midwestern gapers lol
Na they just dumb
Despite the final crash James demonstrated some very quick thinking as he avoided driving into his friends atop. Everyone figured they were well out of the expected trajectory. What a surprise, and it happens.
Technically, he did make it! 👍
Keep your hands and arms in the vehicle at all times. Kills me watching these folks start to roll and hang an arm out.
2 hands on the wheel is a great start, gives you a lot more control than one..
@@0xsergy no the second he felt he was gking back in he needed to take both hands off and grab his 4 point.
Thats what is taught in rally cross. If yiu have the time to think take your hands and cross your arms over your chest.
People always dog on the factory cages (YXZ justly deserved). That Turbo S cage just took a 10ft offset drop on its top on completely unforgiving rock and the driver walked away. I'd say it did it's job 👍🍺🍻 Very glad he walked away.
I totally agree it did it job and will in most cases. But no doubt about it an aftermarket cage would have put him in much better shape. The thing folded and hit his head. An aftermarket one might not look great after that kind of hit, but would have looked alot better.
@@bigred1032 They are designed to give for a reason
@@imzackson lol that reason isn't taking a 10 ft drop.
Tires looked awfully hard!
Tire pressure anyone, anyone!!!
Man I’d love to try that obstacle... in someone else’s rig.
Its not that bad of one
From the start, this driver shows very little confidence or control. No helmet with arm resting on the door is a never an option! Glad he’s ok and hope others learn what not to do. That was 100% over before it started!
Man that was crazy!! As someone who has tried that bugger of an obstacle more then once it's a crazy climb! Glad the driver made it out fairly okay
He made it out to tell the tail. Thats what matters
Why is this guy everywhere
You all probably dont care but does someone know of a trick to log back into an Instagram account??
I somehow forgot my password. I would love any assistance you can give me
@Emmitt Dariel instablaster ;)
@@Coolshortsvideo1 I watch a lot of TH-cam :)
KEEP YOUR ARMS INSIDE THE BUGGY! YOU CANNOT STOP IT FROM ROLLING OVER.
"Are you OK?"
"No, I'm still stupid."
A-Holes standing in the way made him fall back in.
NEVER go to Moab without a helmet. I go to mountain bike, and I cringe when I see people there riding without helmets. Mine has saved my life more than once. Even the pros wear helmets, and we aren't as good as them!
He made it out. Little heavy throttle though. But he fell back in to avoid hitting the spectators. Good on him.
That guy does not know how to drive at all he looks just like he’s drunk
Total driver error caused that
he's got this smoking hot babe and THIS is what he does with his time?
What is WRONG with him ?
How do you think he scored a smoking hot babe? Doing sudoku?
Helmet would have been a good idea
for sure.
not BEING there would have been an even BETTER idea !! GASP !!
@@tooge47 lmao, just sit in your basement forever. you can't ever fail at something that way. no fails = you're a winner, right?
That’s the Devil’s Hot Tub actually, Mickey’s is down the trail a short bit, it’s smaller and narrower, but still a good challenge. Gnarly ass crash, glad he’s ok. It was slimy from the heat last week for sure, tough time to climb it.
ya i saw that and changed it in the description. thanks!
I think too many people don’t understand what a helmet does. Your brain smashing against your skull as it hit something hard is what causes most brain injuries, Our brains “float” in our skulls so are prone to injury when it impacts the skull when the skull rapidly decelerates. A helmet mostly does its job with the padding and foam helping the skull decelerate more gently and over a longer distance so the brain doesn’t smash into it and cause permanent injury. ANY activity where your head can hit something hard and with velocity requires a helmet. At the least, your head can hit the rollbar in a RZR, at the worst, it can hit the ground or a rock or any number of things that can kill or injure you. Having fun shouldn’t include risking pointless death or permanent brain injury.
If he didn't fall back into the bowl, he was going to go flipping backwards into the bowl, he was just lucky his back tire caught the lip to end up on the rim. Once committed and gas matted, he was just a passenger & along for the ride. Spectators had nothing to do with it.
My dude is lucky to still have that arm seeing how at 7:08 it was still exposed and the impact was 7:09
i hope they went back down there and cleaned up all the trash that fell out.. you know, Tread Lightly
Hold my beer.
It mystifies me why people even try these types of stunts. I proves nothing, results in ruined equipment and injuries and just costs money. And where are the harnesses, helmet, gloves, etc. Pure stupidity.
I feel sorry for no one that doesn't wear proper safety gear. Kinda has shitty friends too. That would let him try.
Best rule of thumb. Three tries, then let someone else try.
Some days you are the windshield and some days the bug.
Great learning video for sure... spectators should learn too stay out of the way because he might have had a chance of all the people at the top weren't standing right in his way.
I did this exact obstacle about five years ago in a Rubicon. It definitely gets your attention. You have to straddle on the way out which you can't really see in the video. I know nothing about driving the type of rig in the video but I feel as if it might have just been too light. That's a shame I'm glad everyone ended up being ok.
Damn! No one could have expected that. Never seen anyone come out of there like that! Crazy!!
almost had it!
Thanks for sharing man. Glad your buddy is ok.
I appreciate it
Show me one person who drives a 4x4 that hasn't bumped their head. I think we like it. Glad he's OK to hit the trails another day.
When he rebuilds his machine he needs to put a handle to hold on to INSIDE the thing. (He was rolling over with his hand and arm out the window.)
Easy to see how he would ve made it around and out but those DAMN people didn't leave him space at all ... It was savable
For Sale: side by side LOW miles, adult driven, pampered, garage kept.
Before anyone jumps on this comment, this isn't criticism. Almost looks like had people not been standing there, and he stayed in it he would have made it out. Seems like him stopping to avoid hitting anyone caused the fall back in. That said, no reason anyone could have known it could play out like that and he'd be heading back that way. Crazy video, glad he is ok
That was intense. Glad the driver is ok.
Just a reminder to keep both hands on the wheel. It keeps your arms in the roll cage and as tough as you are you can't strong arm a a UTV over rocks anyway.
I think don’t he was trying to save anyone on the rim. It’s clear he had no control at that point his mind was in survival mode and hitting gas for all he was worth hoping for a miracle ending. Glad no one was hurt.
It seems pretty clear he let off the gas when he saw people in front of him.
@@davidsandall sounds to me like everyone trying to cover up his own stupidity . He was flat out ,out of control.
@@bmdbigfeet1031
Yeah after watching again I'm not going to defend any of their actions.
I agree... he was too off-camber to save it, even if the people hadn't been there, he was out of control. Drove me nuts the way he had his arm hanging out half the time and was wearing no helmet. Call this what it was -- nearly a Darwin moment.
I did not have 'go back to start' on the bingo card.😂
How is his arm not broken
Another one bites the dust... I am glad he was not seriously injured. I had a professional tour guide who took me through Hot Tub. I couldn't even see where the heck we were going as we climbed up. It takes a brave/skillful driver to drive through Hot Tub in my book. By the way, when we went through Hot Tub, it had rained the day before. The mixture of oil and water at the bottom of the pit made it challenging to climb up but Dave Hillman with his experience and skills made it look easy.
Seems like a pretty rookie move to put your arm outside the vehicle.
If anything speed and power is not your friend!
New name: Mickey's Trash Can.
Damn glad he was ok . On the bright side though I mean he did climb it. JS 😉
I would claim it for sure
Lmao
At first I thought more inexperienced than worst ever, however that double roll with a twist was a solid 8.5. Try it with 4 feet of water, thats when the epic happens
Definitely got a little throttle happy. Glad he is ok.
Almost had it!
ya saw the finish line lol
Breaking an axel didn't help either. Looks like that's what shot him to the right.
Hopefully he picked up the trash too
Admitting he was wrong is a good start. Total resect. Now inertia is everything, he should have backed up higher and kept doing that back and forth until he could have gotten out.
I am glad he is ok but sure looks like serious driver error to me. I have done it on my Rover and he might have backed up and get some momentum and of course control his wheels. It appears to me that one arm was outside the window.
@@clsboo2348 That's true, but I have gotten out of situations about as bad in a 1983 Hinda civic. So, yeah, it's about understanding the physics. 🤷
He was 100% out. He let out of it and steered passenger to avoid spectators.
If he let some air out of his tires he would have got more traction
Imagine if he turned to the left and saved it.
Everyone would be like well damn.
While he's being checked out. Was his head examined. needed that before the attempt
The problem is that he made big turns when climbing, he got scared so he aggressively turned back and forth. Your supposed to make little movements
no, he did everything he had to do in that situation, he wouldn't have fallen back in the pit if it wasn't for the spectators in the way.
Glad the driver is ok. Hopefully he had insurance. People standing way too close and not getting out of the way fast enough.
Damn lucky he didnt lose his arm
Technically, he made it so...
The spectators get an assist on that wreck.
he's very lucky he did not lose part of his left arm. Never ever stick your arm out of a vehicle when rolling over.
It's hard enough keeping them in anyway. That's why they have window netting for when you want to do extreme Maneuvers rather than just trail ride. And there is a difference .
When I see those riding / driving beyond their abilities theirs or their machines. And especially with the hi horsepower today it reminds me of why they started to Outlaw three-wheelers.
People doing it just because somebody else did is never a good reason.
Looks like it will buff out.
Wow that was rough! Scary to see for sure. We all hit the tub when we were there it’s definitely intimidating
ya after this one i decided to pass for this trip lol. just means i gotta go back. cant wait to see yall hit it!
@@bigred1032 it ain't worth it brother. you might make it out first try. or you might be in there for hours putting wear on the tires, engine, and every other part of your machine while everyone else laughs. offroading is pointless but to offroad into a known hard spot in a SWB machine that has a tendency to try to roll backwards is silly.
Glad he is ok!
Devils hot tub is no joke. Personally Id never hit it in a 2 door. Gotta watch that go pedal on it, Ive seen a Grand Cherokee flip over backwards from the top onto its roof at the bottom there. Hit so hard on its roof at the bottom it broke the engine from the mounts.
Jesus. The people filming this couldn't direct traffic...Even the guy back at the entrance can't keep it steady.
That was probably the most inexperienced driver I have ever seen trying that hot tub.
I remember when this happened. Glad everyone is ok!! Ride on!!
looks like he broke that driver front axle and it pulled extreme left
My biggest issue was his arm OUTSIDE the window---never, ever do that!
Holy shit! Glad he was ok!
It left a few new "skid marks" mostly in his drawers !
The spectators saw him and moved out of the way. I dont think he turned away, He just didnt make it. Great try.
I don't think you were watching the same video as me. They are right there. Get some new glasses.
@@AimForTheBushes908 Stop smoking pot.
I can see very well and don't need glasses at all, I think he couldn't make it, simple as that.
Just curious what tire pressure he was at. Didn't look like he was getting much grip at all
Joy Fizer dude that obstacle is steep and deep just the fact that he made it that far is really impressive.
It was super hot and the rubber build up was slimy all last week, there just wasn't much grip to be had at all. He was a little too heavy on the throttle, but the LF axle breaking at the top was the real killer.
i think he was around 10 pounds but the video does that no justice. thing is basically a strait up wall
He steered back into the hole to avoid running those people over.
Why does the polaris have such a difficult time tackling this? Is it like a center of gravity thing? Is too much lift a bad thing? I just watched a video of a Rhino taking it without breaking a sweat--that thing looked like a golf cart
cheese for brains
Glad he was OK and able to ride again!!
money does not equal brains,and you guys have been at this how long?
6:38 That was so hard to watch seeing him roll with his arm gripping the out side of the door.
This is 'merica you don't need a helmet.
Glad he's OK.
He had no awareness of where his wheels were pointing.
A better approach would be use some of the momentum from the downhill and hit the hill immediately after the decent.
that is what roll cages are made for.. if you go extreme please use the correct protective gear
Gotta be quick to react. Probably could have saved it
He hit the brakes to keep from running over a group of 5 people, including the guy filming. When he hit the brakes, he fell in
ya its tough when everything is happening in a blink
Agreed, if those people hadn’t been there he would’ve completed a very cool exit.
you can see a tire path leading out in the direction it pulled him, guy in gray stood there with his hands in his pockets like well you're gonna have to go back in pal cause im not moving! and im sure the driver was thinking yeah im not going to push all you guys into the pit, ill take this one for the team i guess. a good reminder for everyone to watch and film from a safe distance. Guy is lucky to have walked out uninjured, when i saw his arm clutching the outside of the machine as it went belly up i thought it was going to be bad injury for sure
that was different for sure but i dont really think he was quite with it he was looking totaly left when he was going right and just didnt correct it panicked glad it turned out well for him
dude went full send and almost had it
Not wearing a helmet on that obstacle is a little nuts. Man, that car took a beating
I worked on a jeep for a guy that had his arm out when it rolled and crushed his wrist and it was full of pins.
That was bad ass he survived
Note to self, dont stand even where you think its safe, your buddy will have to stop to dodge you then this happens.
That’s crazy because he almost made it out in a 2 seater usually the 4 seaters can get out easier because there longer
Are cases like this covered under insurance? Was this a total loss on his part?
Thank god he was harnessed up
gotta get to the back then go not sit at the front of the lip... guess money really doesnt mean you can operate it...
How he keep his arm?
