He would have made it if he hit the gas harder when the rear dropped.

He would have made it if he entered at an angle and had front and rear lockers. A 4x4 without lockers is a 2wd one in front and one in back.

I kinda agree because that would have given it some forward motion to push the front end up the other side of the ditch

open diffs plus what appears to be the equivalent of a streetie 30x9.5 is gonna get you stuck, but if he had gone at it at an angle, and used the skinny pedal, I would bet it could have gotten it.
