Translation : See the clip and say was it the car or the driver ? I would a combination of three car ( 20 % ) driver ( 60 % ) bad luck ; as Gaurav indicated . ( 20 % ) The reason why I put this clip because it reminded me of wagan when I was near to flip over the ridge however the light car and the luck as well as a humble gut of experience, can’t express it , as Soni said reflex ! All played to get me away

Brilliant observations @Benjamin @DP1011… it also seems like the driver just stopped (took his foot off the gas or applied brakes).. a simple steer towards gravity and gas would have saved him! A “simple steer” is not so simple unless you’ve ingrained this in your driving reflex

Came over the crest at high speed. With wheel still locked left causing a sand wall to build up on the right side of the car starting from the front then making its way quickly to the rear causing a roll over. how to avoid this: when coming over a crest or any situation your vehicle is sideways begin to turn down when the wheel begins to feel heavy. Continue to fight gravity either fishtailing, refusals, or rollovers occur much like this one

To me, it seems he is a professional desert safari driver with impeccable response to steering down in less than half a second. Roll must have happened, due to split-second distraction, wrong line, high speed, or soft sand (unfortunate case). @M.Seidam what's written in Arabic?

4T is really overkill for desert use as it's huge and super heavy. Good for home repairs or workshops. 1.5 - 2.0 Ton jack is plenty because at any time you are lifting one tire and not the whole car (2.5 Ton car divided by 4 = 700 - 1000 kgs roughly on one tire). Buying a reliable and good quality one is the most important in my eyes. Jack stand are awesome for lengthy repairs and double protection in tricky places.

and @PETELCZYC PAJERO - luke if you dont have kinetic rope, there is an amazing deal too, provided you have ADCB card ! The cheapest I have ever seen this in last 2 years

@Looper @DP1011 Prime day arrived. I got a big 4T floor Jack and a couple of 3T stands with flat bases as a backup for when pushing those tyres back on. Thanks for the tips. 👍👍

What went wrong here ?

@Sunil Mathew now your videos started to be shown in the video suggestion feed.

This one is interesting one since i have same car and its a heavyweighted SUV. I believe the approaching angle of the dune ridge wasnt proper and he should stabilize the car on the ridge before exiting. What i can see he rode a ridge and exited to another one quickly which causes the car to fishtaling... At this moment the driver insist to fight the gravity while his car is fishtaling which ended of losing the control and jump the ridge to otherside
