I made a couple of mistakes and accidentally set a record for most air in a Bronco on The Staircase at Hell's Revenge in Moab, Utah. My friend describes what he saw at the end. This video includes POV from the dash-mounted GoPro as well as from a friend standing on the hill. I still get anxious watching this!😆

Record, a severe pucker event to be sure, but the record part is a dubious claim.
It's important to measure the length of the skid mark in their pants afterwards. That's how we determine "record breaking" moments such as these.

As you might be able to tell from the POV part of the video, I really had no idea how high up I was. I knew it was steep, but without that other video, wouldn’t have had any idea. Even when my friend said 5 feet, I thought we was talking about how close I was to the side at the top of the hill when I was going to park. 😀

Had I seen a video of what I did before I did that, I 💯 percent would not have done that! 😱

There’s another Bronco that got more than 5 feet off the ground?! 😱 For one, I’m not claiming no one in a custom rig hasn’t done more. I’m just saying I don’t think a Bronco could do more and end up on 4 wheels after! 😆💀

Claiming a specific measurement based upon observed perception during a high stress event is almost as valid as sizing the one that got away.

I'm not attempting to take away from how scary this must have been, but claiming a record based upon a sample size of one- reeks of Social Media exaggeration.

You are being a little too literal here... get over it. That was close to tip area... Who cares if someone else has gone higher... If they have... They probably went over backwards....

As far as I am concerned that is record territory and that is all that matters....

Damn Tim! Glad you made it through!

Glad all ended well. The title had me worried that you set a record for number of rolls.
