Using a manual for wheeling isn't as easy as wheeling an auto, but it is more exciting. Get a hand throttle and put it on your gear shift lever. It will take time to get used to using it, but if you start practicing you will be amazed at what you can get done using one foot for the clutch, and one for the brake, and your right hand for the gas.
Also, yeah he was acting all cool hanging one foot out of his mall-rated jeep then when he almost rolled it his butt cheeks clinched up and he white knuckled the steering wheel.

No, you don't take it off for daily driving. When it is set up right, you can use the foot or hand throttle. I haven't used a hand throttle in the last 15-20 years so I've got some relearning to do, but it does make it possible to crawl over some serious stuff. I think there are a couple of companies making kits one of which is Rubicon Express.

"Why'd you go into the bushes?"
"It was flipping over!"

You know the thing that gets me about this video is that the Jeep belongs to the guy that is spotting him, and he is so stupid that he lets a guy that has never been wheeling get in his Jeep and drive it without his seat belt on. How totally brain dead can you be.

The guy wasnt really listening to his spotters, just kept on going on that terrible line and not not trying to redo when his spotters told him.... Just dosent know at all what hes doing, plus its his own fault he got into that situation, he took a art tard line

Yes! he is bad it was his first time ever wheeling! The guy spotting him is the idiot for letting him drive his Jeep with out using seat belts. It is the seasoned wheeler who has the responsibility teach the new guy how to wheel in a safe and responsible manner. At least the guy driving has the excuse of not knowing anything, the guy spotting him is the one I blame mostly on this video.
