Is That Even A Road?! Russian Extreme Off-Roading Looks Like Automotive Ultimate Survivor!


Is That Even A Road?! Russian Extreme Off-Roading Looks Like Automotive Ultimate Survivor!

In American videos of off-roading, you see old trucks, sport-utes and anything else with four-wheel drive climbing over rocks, splashing through water and playing in the mud until the eventual point when said vehicle gets stuck and needs some help to extract back to where it’s safe. As far as playtime goes, that’s fun and all, but we have a feeling that if we have any Russian readership, that seeing a Chevy Blazer sunk to the hubs will elicit some snickering and low-blow comments. Russia has the largest area by land mass on Earth, and in the over 17 million square miles of terrain you are likely to find many different obstacles, ranging from snow to mountainous terrain to some of the most horrifyingly bad drivers we’ve ever seen on dashcam footage. But when it comes to off-road driving…oh, brother, you’re gonna have a hard time convincing us that there is something better than watching a blatantly heavy by huge truck that looks like it’s aircraft servicing equipment on a new lease on life slogging through the kind of mud that can swallow a man up in the blink of an eye, or watching a similar vehicle fording a river deep enough that washing out is a sincere threat. The next time you think you’re big and bad because you made it down a muddy track without getting stuck, take a look at what it actually takes to get one of these monsters so hung up that they need to ask for help.

    If stuck means temporally being unable to move forward due to difficult terrain they obviously do. The deep mud prevented unrestricted forward travel – which in other words means being stuck…..
