Big Air - Max jumping into a lake

[MaxRules]

Some of you might remember this huge Max jump from 1997. A dealer in Minnesota did this and a photo even made it into Dirtwheels magazine. I've had it on video for a long time but I just now got all the nessasary computer gizmos to clip it out and post it on youtube. It's in slow motion and it's awesome. The only question now is... can an Argo top this?

Cool clip! But I wouldn't ever even think about trying that in an Argo, haha. I'd think that it would just launch and just nose dive in the water and suck water in the cool air intake and hydrolock the engine. I believe 6x6World member Silverbullet75 tried to enter somewhat deep water off a rock rather quickly and he hydrolocked his engine and had to paddle back to shore.

JP, I think this is Mike's video, it's one of the "related suggestions" for Brandon's video. At almost the very end of the video there is an Argo jump.

BTW that is an awesome Max II jump!

I tried this once with a car..... didn't end well.

That Argo would be McCoy. Like Mike, he does stuff like that.

Very cool to see the actual footage that goes with the pic.
