That's why you don't hang on to the cage in a moving vehicle. You can hang on to a grab bar on the dashboard or a center console but if you know you're getting ready to roll and you're belted in (which you should be) cross your arms and put your hands on your shoulders and hope for the best.
He was sitting on the right side passenger and his left hand (inside of vehicle) was hurt. Do you mean the top of the windshield? Just trying to imagine where he was holding onto…
I was a passenger in a utv rollover couple years ago. I crossed my arms and grabbed my 4 point harness at my chest. I received zero injury’s. The driver reached out “stop the roll”, support herself, or something, I’m not sure. The roll cage broke her arm. The other passenger was thrown clear, the machine rollled to a stop, on top of him, resting on its side, pinning his legs underneath. It was a damn mess. The driver climbed out, and I managed to lift just enough weight up, for him to slide out from under the utv. He was severely bruised, shaken up, but nothing broken. Extremely lucky. We could not flip the utv back on it’s wheels by ourselves. Two banged up people, whom couldn’t do much, and me. So I walked the 5+ miles to another group I could see off in the distance, camping in the open desert. They drove me back, and helped us right the machine onto its wheels. The woman driving, was operating way beyond her skill level. I did tell her to slow down, but she would not listen. I had thought through what to do if she did crash. “Keep your hands inside, grab your harnesses.” I don’t take off road rides with strangers anymore. 😎
And if you can think clearly enough before the impact breathe out because it's better to not have any wind in your lungs during a sudden stop then to have it knocked out of you and not be able to breathe right for the next 5 minutes even if you're not injured.... it's harder to collapse a lung that is already collapsed...
Original parts are increasingly hard to find, and expensive when you do. Speaking from experience when my '77 FJ40 pax door got crunched through no fault of my own. Luckily I found an original replacement door with very little rust. But wow it was expensive.
@@DrJohn493 I have the windshield frame on my FJ-40 that came off the one that Lee Majors rolled in a 1981 episode of the "Fall Guy" - I saw the episode 15 years ago on DirectTV; Marv Spector brought it to me in 1982 and said I hope you don't mind the dent in the top and explained how it got there(he bought the wreck from the studio)Now that was 40 years ago and it still cost $250, but it came with the single motor wiper(1968) You wouldn't believe what I did to it, but it was far more spectacular than what Lee did! As of February, 2022 I will have owned my FJ for 46 years!?! Mine is a l965 model that I spent the last 6 years upgrading using all the parts I've accumulated since 1994 back when used parts were inexpensive and available. But NOT "restored" as I have seen lately on TH-cam, those folks are misinformed and misguided when it comes to Toyota Land Cruisers and their capabilities. Outrageous prices for parts and no concept as to what makes these vehicles competent contenders in the boondocks when your life is on the line. Who ever heard of a 1980 FJ-40 that is worth $110,000? Sorry, but you just can't buy mine no matter how much $$$ you have, my FJ is not for sale and I do not plan on building another one, and no, I don't need any parts!
@@fordmasters4352 That is a great back story on your FJ40. I've had people pull up beside me at stop lights and ask if my '77 was for sale. Nope! Like you, it ain't for sale.
@@DrJohn493 i have an all orig 64 among '' a few'' other 4x4 yotas, people randomly leave notes on my mailbox with cash offers, i wrote ''not for sale' on the mailbox and they still leave notes, folks love yotas, and i cant blame them, but ffs i had to hide my rhd turb diesel hilux behind my house until my shop was done.
@@abe1176 Absolutely too fast. That trail has zero margin for error for large portions of it, it can and will send you to an early grave. There's no shame in going slower, and if you can't control your vehicle from rolling over after picking a poor line, yes you were going too quick.
@@allaboutroofing2I’m no medical doctor, but you can see his knuckles, his fingers are literally bent out of shape, hence why he was bending them back, as he’s swearing out loud.
I've watched a few videos over the years from Black Bear Pass, and that specific hairpin corner I could just tell from the first time I saw it ahead in the videos, it would be the source of a lot of pain and problems for even some moderately experienced offroaders. Watched the video of the roll over that was far worse than this that Suzie Rhodes was in just before this one, but from another jeep's perspective, and as soon as they came to that corner, I immediately noted the cliff wall jutting out into the trail, the big rock on the opposite edge of the same spot in the trail, and it's short 5 foot steep drop at it's apex as the main culprits that would cause most of the accidents. Well, I didn't think about that loose shalerock slope you rolled on. But add her to the list!
Was on the Rubicon with the TLCA, all taking a nice break. One fella, FJ40, didnt see the rock behind him, backed up and over he went. Shit happens. My 62 FJ40s been on its side too, just after new body work and paint, of course. LOL
Yeah, they're tough but they don't make 'em any more either. Good luck with breaking one and finding original parts. Original parts in good condition are hard to find and expensive when you do find 'em. Can't even get parts from Toyota anymore. As much as I'd like to, I would never put my '77 FJ40 to this kind of test. And mine isn't a garage queen.
Looks like he was grabbing the roll cage. Then when everything got smushed his fingers were in the way. This is a great video to watch all the things NOT to do. LOL
How did you get your fingers? I remember years ago a guy loosing a few finger holding on to a jeep window frame and it rolling over against a tree. One hand on the wheel and the other on the windshield frame. The guy sold the jeep after that, as far as I know he never got back into wheeling. Thank God it didn't keep rolling!
This is why I did this run alone. 1) I knew that I needed to have absolutely *NO* distractions, including talking from passengers. 2) If I rolled down to Telluride it would only be my own life on the line.
nah this guy just sucks. would never get in a vehicle with him, even if it was just to the grocery store. HOW THE HELL DO YOU DO WHAT HE DID?!?! is he blind in his left eye or something? sheesh.
It is quite telling, how little it takes for those suspensions to get kicked over from a hard bump. Scary how FAST that happened! I am just gonna...BAM.
bro this guy rode up the left side which made him tip over. have you never seen in traffic dash cams a car rear end some one at the proper angle then it just topples over. same thing here. this guy is a terrible driver and I would never get in a vehicle with him. the first corner coming down he scraped too he had so much room. this guy literally sucks he was hugging the inside way to much.
You should have folded the windshield down in the first place and saved yourself a thousand bucks. Isn't there supposed to be a grab bar directly above the glove box? That would have saved you another grand for the ER visit.
@@fatboynip i would not drive with him to donut shop what a idiot, i seen a car on its side at pick and pull the other day, fire department was there, i was like wtf? might be same guy
Where you drunk ? You had all kinds of room on the first switch back and still clipped the rock then hauling ass down the hill and running it straight up the bank? Well done somethings you shouldn’t post, you deserve all the negative comments people like you will get that trail closed someday.
It would be an amazing hike. I wouldn’t dare take a vehicle down there. The risk to reward ration is lop sided, and heavily in favor of something bad happening
This was just a dumb mistake because you weren't paying attention. You're lucky someone didn't get killed due to your inexperience and negligence. Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. And get rid of the 3 point and get proper seat belts. Teach your passengers to cross their arms during a roll-over.
Going way too fast. This trail sucks. No fun for the driver for sure. I'd never take anything but a motorcycle or small 4 wheeled atv in there. My first gen suzuki king quad would be perfect. But my 3rd gen 700 would've been too tall. Seeming how there's so many crashes people would be stupid to bring a on road 4 wheeler in there.
Too fast and reckless. Rookie mistakes just about killed these guys. Inexperienced wheelers latch themselves into a vehicle when driving a low speed trail with a steep vertical incline. UNLATCH and be ready to bail!

Keep your hands in the vehicle at all times!
Really helps to keep both hands on the wheel; good luck on finding a 1967 FJ-40 windshield frame

That was pure negligence. Too fast and too reckless for Black Bear Pass. Thank God you survived!
just gonna ride up the side of the mountain here. what a dummy
too fast? all he did was go too far left and tipped it over.
Too fast and reckless? Speed had nothing to do with this hes just an idiot and drove up the left side for some reason

these were kids playing with fire.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. 100% the drivers fault. Thankfully everyone survived with just some scrapes.
Did you see that guy's fingers? That's more then a scrape. Looks like his entire fingernail got ripped off.
@@allaboutroofing2 Exactly... All he needs is a band aid. I'm sorry you perceive this as a serious injury.
@@allaboutroofing2 he is not going to be able to point straight again,

Have driven BB for decades. Always use low range slow speed. Never pull side ways on hillside. Hopefully everyone healed up.
Glad you got to keep your fingers crossed
Wow! In over your head comes to mind.
Driving to fast seen it right off … outch !
of course you did you have perfect armchair vision!
Don't risk it, just do a three point turn!
Dang, serious distracted driving. Ran the front tire right into the wall. 😲
Way too fast, what gear were you in?

@@DrJohn493 I just had, my transfer case rebuilt😳 was not cheap either. Wish they sold them here still.
Rookie been watching to many Hollywood commercials
wow...everyone involved is very lucky!!!
Is there a part 3?
That was quick.
Did the passenger try to catch his fall when it rolled over? Kind of hard to see what happened...
Looks like he was grabbing the roll cage. Then when everything got smushed his fingers were in the way. This is a great video to watch all the things NOT to do. LOL

Well, if you're going go roll over on B.B. thats how you want to do it because the otherway if far less forgiving
Camera guy… did you hit your pointer finger with a wood router?
Got lucky it was just a few fingers getting mangled. Hope some lessons were learned here.
OUCH 😓
Why 3 videos????????

that dude's fingers are fukked up! Rookies on a trail. No-talent driver risking the lives of his passengers. Terribel.
Watch where your going, Should have been looking left at the hill that would have even flipped a new toyota that are also prone to roll overs.
I'm still amazed how many people risk their lives to drive up something I could walk up faster. Cold beer isn't worth it.
Looked like he lost a finger there...🤷🏽♂️
I rather hike.
