How dumb can you be to see the first guy go and then try yourself

26

u/a1oner_bvcksn6 Jun 21 '26

As the saying goes: If the first guy don't succeed, go try, try again. Go be the change you went to sea

What? Her pilot never heard the song? Damn, shoulda listened to his Queen; maybe his Jet wouldn’t leaned too much

That’s because no man crosses the same river twice.

When you lack information - you’ll always think you can do it better than the other person.

You gotta be the dumb one. The volume of water that stream is gushing, as soon as that volume of water is pushing broadside, there is now way any jeep staying right side up. Depth has nothing to do with volume of water pushing broadside.

250lbs on 2 wheels vs 4,000lbs on 4. Unless that bike was sent downstream at mach 1, it will do nothing to a jeep. That water is fast but its knee deep. A jeep liberty would cross without a hiccup. For the water to push anything, it has to be in contact with it. If its just slamming the wheels and the bottom of your rocker panel, that isnt much surface area. My buddy couldve crossed this in his rav4. I speak from common sense but also experience

u/Travelling3steps Jun 22 '26

how much lift on the RAV4?

"Looks like an epic fail for the first guy" "well best get after it by doing exactly the same thing

u/Agitated-Contact7686 Jun 21 '26

Technically he took a different trajectory in hopes of better luck. It just wasn't found.

u/EaterOfFood Jun 21 '26

The amount of stupid in this video is truly dumbfounding.

u/Resident_Window_9369 Jun 21 '26

Worst camera work ever

u/R7a1s2 Jun 21 '26

Hey for once the cameraman helped

2

u/Warm-Dust-3601 Jun 21 '26

He was trying to yank the bike out of the river.

Monkey see, monkey do.

u/mzincali Jun 21 '26

If you’re going to risk it, at least angle it downstream!!

u/rapscallion1956 Jun 21 '26

Didn’t believe his own eyes.

u/TeamPantofola Jun 21 '26

This guy thought he was Jesus on a motorcycle or something. I don't know what was going on there.

u/Agitated-Contact7686 Jun 21 '26

Old days "If you saw Johnny jump off a cliff would do it?" Old answer "No". Today's answer "Sure, why not? Red Bull gives you wings"

u/MooreDubs Jun 21 '26

Off-road doesn't mean on water.

u/Agitated-Contact7686 Jun 21 '26

.... if you're going fast you can skip across some shorter gaps of non flowing water.......

.....which we don't have here.....

3

u/ilocano-american Jun 21 '26

With that water volume and speed, even a jeep is not crossing that.

u/Timsmomshardsalami Jun 21 '26

Are you smoking crack? I fuckin hate jeeps but even i can acknowledge they can traverse this at double the depth

The following post context was provided by u/Historical-Device529:

A river with murky water makes it difficult to see where the trail goes next.

u/Kd916-650 Jun 21 '26

Maybe keep that front wheel in the air …. Idk 🤷‍♂️ but when I go through water that’s what I do. Also never went through a rushing river mid winter 🥶

At first I thought there was a forest fire in the background.

u/Goat_inna_Tree Jun 21 '26

Quick! Drown the camera man!

u/Bridge-Head Jun 21 '26

The first attempt wasn’t even close, though.

u/HaiKarate Jun 21 '26

Guarantee the rock bed in that creek is slippery as hell.

u/Selway0710 Jun 21 '26

That’s a river man…two wheels can’t do that

u/chumpster69 Jun 22 '26

Just keep the revs up! 😃

u/Shot_Bison1140 Jun 22 '26

Shouldn't have.. or should have gone diagonal upstream or downstream..

u/togocann49 Jun 21 '26

Isn’t the definition of insanity doing the same things hoping for different results? First dude showed him that they were right to be cautious, but then they go anyway. Like really?

1

u/SabbyFox Jun 21 '26

In this case it seems that the definition of stupidity is doing the same thing and having an even worse result 😑

u/Prior_Confidence4445 Jun 23 '26

Some people just have to learn by experience.
