WAY to fast

This dude is *hauling ass* in terms of trail 4x4 driving. Cheesus. This must be his first time out with his "new toy". That's crazy. He should be in lower gear.. just creeping. No need to even ride the breaks.

Way too fast

I agree..

Good times.

Back when people and cars where just built different.

First rule of going downhill off road. Gearing not brakes.

@@stephenburnage7687 if there isn't already there needs to be a sign on this trail, disk brakes mandatory,, low range 1st gear or you will die.

correction: ...conversation as "they're" driving.

@@bermuda3944 Says the person who gave the teacher an apple.

Yep my reaction also. I have had to Jeep Rubicons and have wheeled all over AZ, UT and CO. I would never go that fast on something that steep. He was way overconfident.

Agreed. The road isn't bad if it's respected. Their speed was way too fast.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed the drivers carelessness here, way to fast. Shows the driver's inexperience here and I would say that they were lucky they didn't go over the edge. Take the FJ40 away from that man please, give him a Prius to drive

@@christopherlaboy9377 Agree ! I'm amazed at the people on these trails that probably shouldn't be driving dirt roads.

Agree. This rookie was going way too fast, or old timer was way too careless. Bad all around.

You were a hell of a linebacker Bill …

I had a 1983 CJ-5 6 cyl brown metallic that I bought new. I only kept it 3 years and traded it in on a new ‘85 Ranger. I drove the Jeep on the Mississippi levee a few times and. It was scary just going up the narrow levee road. I would love to have another one or a CJ-7 with a little more leg room.

Nice, had a stick 79 4x4 CJ5, 67 4x4 1/2 ton Jeep pickup, and an old 44 1/4 ton Willys (ordered 2 of them & dad and I assembled them). You'll be fine, down or uphill, use 4H off-road slight up hill -#15 , 4L and granny gear on steep down/up grade. NEVER get in a hurry, never ride your clutch, and learn to walk your Jeep (don't gun the gas) down hill. Never go 4 wheelin when you have to be somewhere by a certain time, patience will keep you alive. I currently have a 2020 Rubicon Wrangler 4x4, 4 door hardtop auto and a 1994 F150 4x4 stick pickup (bought new). Mil/Leo ret.

And the fj kept running after they pushed it back up 😲

Bro. It's an FJ40. Roll bar is built well.

Too fast! 🤜🤛

Too fast and too complacent, dangerous combo on a trail like that

That jeep road looks so tough I'd leave my 1965 FJ-40 at home and drive my girlfriend's 2 door 1977 Chevy Nova

No, it isn't worth it. Black Bear is not a difficult trail but it's a bloody dangerous one if you don't respect it.

He's probably done it several times and got complacent

@@bmarie8965 complacency can def bite you If you let it.

One of two things: a senior moment or a stunt! But an FJ-40 not stable? Oh that's right, you did not have KYB gas shocks, my bad

Capt Stupid- I must disagree, as a former owner of a ‘70 FJ 40, I can assure you they are as a rock, solid as a pair of fresh silicone hooters, the driver in this video and you have much in common.

I was on both ends of that trail years back with a full size extended cab pickup, over the pass from highway 550 to just passed the summit ( then turned around ) also into the box canyon up to the power house and just being at that point to the top of the falls was well worth it if you haven't, and back then a family was still living in that building. Being that your a Colorado back country native, I was curious if you have driven Taylor pass as you may get a good laugh out of the fact I did that trail with my pickup and it has running boards to boot, again far from the hot setup to be near trails like that !. This video ( have not looked for the other parts yet ), I sensed something bad about to happen even if the title had not said as its so easy to bounce off a rock sitting loose on the trail at anything other then a very slow controlled speed, there is very little room for error when it comes to trails like this.

Red Cone definitely has it's moments... My Lexus GX470 on 33's and 3" lift made short work of it. Going up isn't too bad, it's the trail down from the peak that really gets you. Luckily it's a short run to Webster pass and it's all gravy from there. There's also plenty of room there to park for 10min and let your sphincter relax enough to let go of the seat! I took my DSLR with me and got some AMAZING shots at the peak. I have no interest in Black Bear. That kind of stuff just ain't for me.

Black Bear isn't terrible. It is honestly hyped up more than it should be. My first time down it was with my dirt bike and I was expecting something terrible. I walked my bike down the "steps" just to be extra careful and then I was like, "That's it?" I took my Jeep XJ down it in 2021. It has 33's and 3.5" of lift. Nothing special and no need for lockers. Make sure you have good brakes / brake lines, have a general idea of proper wheel placement, don't drive over the edge, or up on the rock face, and you're good to go.

@@paulstandaert5709 From watching videos of various vehicles negotiate that trail, definitely the XJ wheel base along with its not overly wide wheel track was a good rig on not only that trail but a lot of the trails in Colorado. Full size longer wheel base pickups are a different beast, a worse break over angle, worse departure angle and a wider track, not to mention weight being a performance killer and a gravity killer !. Another item you're Jeep has going for it or in my mind anyway is the solid front axle as some pickups or for that matter independent front suspension SUV's can have opposite tires lifting off the ground long before your XJ would in the uneven type terrain and as a result can roll, at the very least has poor traction or no drive to the ground with no lockers. Hopefully your able to keep your XJ running good for a long time to come, those are excellent units and I had wished I had been driving one when I was doing some of the trails in Colorado.

@@charlesb4267 yes, I should have mentioned the full size rigs not being a good idea. It can be done, but .... Yeah. A 4 door wrangler can do it, but the XJ is about the perfect size.

Why be a dick about it. I’m pretty sure the driver relies his mistake, especially after only minor injuries. He made a mistake do to probably a little inexperience.

Even the Wildly Unruly Adventurer says so. Imagine that!!!

This was a rookie mistake. Stupid is as stupid does.

That is exactly the same road.

@@TraceyAllen hummmmm, not so sure unless you know from 1st hand….I’m sure if it were, they would have filmed the falls, the mill and the town or maybe not not.

Or way too little respect.

Looked like his driver tire went up the wall. Not watching where he was going

@@chrism1966 He was not paying attention and going too fast.

Definitely lack of experience, speed and getting too close to the wall. Front driver side tire went up the wall and suspension gave no articulation. But even so, a much slower approach would've prevented the roll over. Very lucky we didn't keep rolling. The only injury to report was broken index and crushed middle left fingers (with middle dislocated also). I recorded the ER visit. It shows my fingers in tourniquets and finger nails being removed.

@@elijahescobar9987 live and learn and leaf springs 😆

@@elijahescobar9987 how’s the fingers now? Hopefully you all are doing well.

A had a coworker who's father managed to get killed doing that. That wasn't a good day for anyone.

Think passenger posted it.

*too

How many did you have before you did it ?
