2012 Jeep Wrangler: Who Doesn't Like Jumping Jeeps? With Video

 Jeep-jump-1.jpg

Go ahead. Try to not watch the video. I dare you.

 

 

Slow build up, I know. But the payoff. Oh, the payoff.

Jump videos are like a homing beacon for hoons, of which I am the worst. Turns out, hours of fun can be had by typing "Jeep Jump" into YouTube. Hours, I say. 

Ok, so that one didn't work out so well. But here's one set to House Of Pain's Jump Around. And this guy sticks the landing.

Happy hooning.

Big air is not a strong point of a Jeep. Some people are a little too stupid to realize that.

"Duuuude, my dad's gonna kill me for not giving a crap about the Jeep he bought me. That's O.K., he'll fix it for me and the next jump will be even better."

Aaaaaand scene.

I'm surprised the airbag didn't go off. That was practically a head-on collision.

I love the driver's face in the first video. It's that clear moment in one's life where you realize you were only a runner-up for the darwin award.

That's OK - I generally try to have a pinch 'tween my cheek and gum before watching something like this, and we have a no-tobacco policy here at work...

I wonder if his dad managed to watch that video and not laugh. Of course that was probably quickly followed by the "face in the first video. It's that clear moment in one's life where you realize" your kid was "only a runner-up for the darwin award."
