Defender 90 rolling over

This is a very nice movie about a Defender that rolls over, and also about the recovery afterwards. (For good understading: I don’t know these guys.)

This def has Simex tires, which have a very aggressive pattern for maximal grip. This means that you have more risk of rolling, because the tires won’t slip, even in extreme situations. The driver is also pushing the throttle, which increases the risk of uncontrolled movements. I have the impression he did not turn off his engine right after he rolled, because it releases a lot of steam. Whenever rolling over, do remember to turn off he engine immediately to prevent engine damage.

To put the vehicle back on it’s four wheels, they use 2 winches, so that they can control the vehicle much better. While they are doing this, pay attention to the marchal which is giving excellent instructions. Thanks to this, the vehicle doesn’t get damaged more than it already is…
