From the increasing speed approaching the “ take off “ speed shows he was pre determined ! The only thing he forgot to deploy his “ wings “ !!

Another one , fighting gravity in wrong angle ! , in other words let the momentum that you carry ( like up hill climb or side slope )  fight for you cause if you let you engine fight late and not from the beginning  it will almost always end like that . I am least experience and hence I say it 

 

IF there was no roll over by that Jeep, there would have been an accident between this jeep and the front one as they where going so close, with out flag, not hearing any radio too. at 0:52 it is clearly visible.

That was @Humayun Ghias Y62 which was 90 degrees to the slip face on a dune. I don't have video by maybe someone else does.

@Wrangeld you were very courageous to go under the tipped car which was unstable and attach the tow rope to its chassis so that @Alex Raptor could slowly winch him to safety. That was when I learned from you that a slanted car with engine running blows out a lot of smoke. You gave the explanation to that and I experienced the same when my car went into a limp mode recently and in slanted position. @Shaaz Sha was worried my engine was out but I assured him its all right and Richard has explained why this happens.

@jodha singh shekhawat was lucky that his car didn't roll over but he found himself in this position because he disregarded the most important advice Marshals give before a drive - DON"T FIGHT GRAVITY. It was an intermediate drive and Jodha brought his new car without prior testing in the desert. My fellow off roaders please don't bring your newly acquired cars directly for higher classified drives without participating in Newbie, Fewbie drives with your new car prior to participating in Intermediate drives.
