Splashdown: Hopping Into The Mudpit In Georgia


Splashdown: Hopping Into The Mudpit In Georgia

Before you did something incredibly dumb with a car that you knew would be the stuff of legends years later, did you ever have that moment where you paused and thought about just what, exactly, you were about to do? Did you have to steel yourself up before you cranked the wheel all the way to the left and proceeded to make the donuts in the middle of the intersection late one night? Were you planning out how things were going to happen, and how you were going to escape once you were finished, or were you all about the glory?

Every time I see one of these mega truck drivers line up for a nice, long high jump into a mud pit, I find myself wishing I could get a glimpse inside of their mind. Do they picture the run inside of their head going exactly to plan? Do they run through their escape plan just in case things go wrong? Or are they psyching themselves up for the flight of a lifetime, where the audience goes quiet, waiting for the splashdown?

There’s not much more to say than to enjoy watching big trucks go play in the mud!
