Ok, never posted pics on here before. Hopefully they don't blow up everyone's computer...

These were from a paintball trip gone horribly awry... smile

Well, actually when I went into it, I
thought there was a remote possibility
I would make it. Turns out, I did make it.

I wasn't stuck there, I just stopped to take
pictures. I came around from the right side.
When my left tire dropped into the hole, I
started to tip over, but let off the brake,
rolled forward enough for my bumper to jam
into the wall (thus the smashed bumper) and
was fine.

Then I just drove down, went slow as my back
tires dropped in, and away I went.

My bumper is actually cleaned up and back on.
I'd smashed it up before, so the few extra
scratches aren't a big deal. And you can't
really tell anyways. The bigger deal was when I
tried to climb back up. I didn't make it, slide
back into the hole, and my front right panel
above the tire has a set of rather deep dents
and scratches.... smile

Well the pictures just don't do the situation any justice... it was my thought to try this little obstacle in the first place... but I got out and walked it first and stood in the hole which came up to about my waist... Mark decided he would go ahead and give it a shot... and as he said as he turned down into the hole the X came very close to rolling on it's side... scary stuff, just wish I had my camera in hand then instead of just after he stopped...I mean these pics are nice but the almost roll pics would have been sweet!!

Glad nothing tooooo bad happened Mark...

It was wierd- I've never been THAT tippy and yet I wasn't really worried!

We were about 6 inches from the left side hitting the ground-

I guess I wasn't worried because it wasn't my truck! laugh
