    I endo'd my bike and knocked my front teeth out, tried to plow up the sidewalk with my face. Quite traumatic for a young kid.
    I would be having flashbacks if I was in that Jeep.

    Still have my front teeth, but lost some backside when wife saw this pick and asked if the kids were in the jeep with me. Can't lie about it. First thing kids say are, "Mom, guess what dad did in the jeep today?" This was taken after the jeep settled down. This was a runoff and the dip on the right was so great that it stood me up on end. It was a lot steeper than I expected, and I panicked a little forgetting all I know. I hit the brakes unstead of rolling through it. Sure made for a great picture though.

    Man I just saw the video of this endo. The guy behind me had a gopro mounted on his jeep and said he himself didn't see it but when he went back to see it on the recording he said Oh My! I had 3 tires in the air balancing on the front right tire before it set backdown to 3 tires on the ground. I will try to rip the video from facebook and post it here. Wait till the wife sees that video.

    Yep. It was worse after it sat down not knowing what to do. I let off the brake and rolled right out of it. The next day I took the bypass, and my kids were disappointed.

    I think if your rig woulda tipped one more inch you woulda been rolling. Scary as hell. I'm glad it didn't roll and the kids had fun. Yea definitely don't tell the wife. She wouldn't ever let you take the kids with you to the grocery store let alone on the trail lol. Glad to see everything worked out and nothing bad came of it.

    Ouch shit man I could have gone without that story. Broke my tooth half off kissing the bottom of a swimming pool at a high rate of speed. Still hurts thinking about it.

    I even left out the part about me pulling my hand away from my mouth and it being completely red with blood and that one tooth was bent straight back while the other was hanging by the root, but I didn't think anyone would want to hear that.
