That is a good point, but I watched another video of those guys going through some serious mud, and then comes along a huge lifted up quad on some giagantic mud tires that had to be 29 or 30 inches tall at least. You see the 6x6 make it through previously and then this monster quad starts going through it, but doesn't make it. He was rocking the quad from side to side, but then the pudding mud just sucks him right down in sideways and at the end of the video the guy bails off and it looks like every goes to help him and bring the quad upright.
