Exclamation amphibious WJ... epic fail.

this guy is from south part of Turkey. i am not sure what the main purpose was since we did not see the first part of video but result could be fatal.

stupid loser

so many more questions, other than why he was trying it... y did he stop forward momentum? where was trying to get to & what was he thinking when he tried stepping on the rear door handle, then back-stepping to just sit there?? did he really contemplate jumping into this river that just carried his 4,000 lb SUV maybe 100ft, & nearly completely flipping it?

funny when fairy boy attempted throwin his cell under-hand to someone...

sad what he did to that WJ... damn shame

Rushing water as much as 1 foot deep can pull you vehicle down stream.
He really went over that limit lol
