Without those people we wouldn't have all those Youtube videos of people turning their trucks into submarines.

I swear some try to make it hard.
When I find it one of the easiest things to do.

Then again some people have trouble walking and chewing gum at the same time.

This. It will hop a little if you're unloaded and try to turn and won't turn well at all if it has any weight in the rear trying to drive around with the diff locked. I've done both.

Even turning on dry pavement at low speeds in 4HI probably won't hurt anything. It will bind or hop if empty, will probably just stop if loaded. At that point, who ever is behind the wheel is bound to think "hmmmm, something's not right here" and stop rather than punch it.
