I would bet he was flexing at first, but by the time this picture was taken, the coil had unloaded. None of us flex when there is no weight on the spring

Kinda reminds you of the movie type scene - as he almost rolls on his side - it mysteriously stops. He is very relieved, but THEN, the soda in the floorboard rolls to the passengers side and the jeep lays over on its side crushing priceless mods. - jk lol
