That is great! pretty funny stuff.

So... yeah... there is only so much you can do in the desert.

Those guys found another activity to add to the list.
 
Just a bunch of oil rich kids having some harmless fun. Impressive.
If only that were all rich kids in North America did.....
 
So how was the left rear wheel not turning? And how did all the power go to the right rear wheel? Some tricky differential stuff going on there.
 
Anyone in the US want to show themselves doing that? Didn't think so.

Watch some Gall Bros Aussie videos or South American wayer crossings to see what wusses we are.

LOL

Right? I tried to debunk the video and the shadows all look good and really the only thing odd is that rear wheel not spinning.
 
wouldn't this get all F'd up with the traction control? Unless they are locked and in 4low? And that would be a bit fast for 4low wouldnt it?

If you look at 0:47 the rear wheel is used as a step. If it were free-rolling, surely it would have spun at least a little bit.

They must have installed some sort of line lock or tricked the ABS somehow, akin to how we used to have left and right parking brake handles on the old VW Dune Buggies. Seems absurd but I suppose if one has enough cash to risk destroying a new-ish SUV for a gag, then some sort of modulator or line modification is chump change.
 
If you watch carefully as he rolls it up on to two wheels, the rear wheel stops instantly, and the front wheel keeps rotating and spins down slowly. Also, the front wheel moves when the guy steps on it, but the rear doesn't. So, there must have been some kind of individual brake lock on the left rear wheel. Interesting.
