Nice parts truck!

I'm betting no run-up to this... Good incremental pre-runs result in at worst a slight overshot of the downslope, and also in a much smaller jump with no significant damage. This is why a tabletop is so much better - no unforgiving downslope to overshoot

Nope. Looks like he just went for it. The landing falls in the Epic Fail category, and is exactly what NOT to do - unless you have a deathwish for yourself and your truck.

Another camera angle, plus a cursory look at the external destruction

WOW! JUST WOW! That takes the cake, wrong hill, wrong speed = pancaked landing.

We knew someone would eventually do it, and frankly I'm glad it wasn't me!

Some are willing to donate their body to science. And their Raptor too. I'm just wondering when his passenger knew this was going to be a crash test? Surely he did not know his friend was going to hit it THAT hard? Who signs up for that kind of suicide mission...

So there's other lessons here:
1) Know and trust who you're riding with because he has your life in his hands - you have no control over his right foot
2) Copilots have responsibilities too - the most important of which is being the VOICE OF REASON - like "How 'bout some practice runs" and "Damn Deathwish!...Slooow THe HELL DOWNNNNN!!!!!!"


And of course.... A smart copilot never risks becoming road kill
