Sadly it's not just Jeeps. I've seen a lot of videos on here and other toyota forums where people's lack of experience leads them to be way too throttle happy. I think most people that are new to wheeling need to take the "crawling" part more literal. I'd have told this guy to try to keep his RPMs below 2K, and maybe choose a different line. lol I'm sure he didn't even know his driver tire was about to climb up when the video started.

I'm not an experienced wheeler, but maybe girth hitch a strap to the bull bar so the front could be pulled down if needed?

There's a full video of that somewhere. Dude driving is simply an idiot. Way too much throttle for a hill like that. He had a spotter and even his spotter was yelling at him to slow it down and pick a line. Also pretty sure he yelled at him to get off the brakes so he could roll back a little bit and get the nose down. I'm surprised he didn't flip, but I guess his rear tire saved him. Dude's gotta learn to listen to his spotter.

To be fair, my style of wheeling is just a bit happy on the throttle sometimes depending on how bored I am; but usually only in spots I know it'll just be a bumpier ride vs. flipping. But yeah, that's not a place you want to be heavy on the gas and his line was off.

As a buddy of mine says when it doesn't want to climb up. SKINNY PEDAL.

The caption reads "Cuando aprietas bien ese culo"
Means "when your bung hole really clenches."
IOW your intuition was perfect.

The suggested video for this was even better...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ax4sNUPIJjs
The comments are priceless: take your dog out of the damn car when you're doing stuff like this, and the last guy was a ****ing champ!
Real talk: does the short wheel base make the Jeeps more prone to this, or will our 4Runners flip just as easily? I need to be more mindful of this when wheeling since I never thought it could happen to me, but I know that's foolish thinking.

Oh god, the suggested video from the suggested video was even better! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHKWIJpScRw
These Aussies are calling the shit that they hear breaking, and then trail repairing it. God bless Australia. It's like if Florida were full of somewhat smarter people.
