Cool video. I don't think i saw any Fords though..

Those short wheel base trucks are awesome for that type of stuff, they seem almost unstoppable.

Those guys are certainly not afraid of a little water. A couple of the trucks look pretty cool.

I'll bet the guy in the passenger seat at the lake wasn't too happy. Not only did his buddy try to drown him but he wouldn't get out of the way until the rig was fully under trapping the poor guy without air.

wow that is some sick mud and those russians must have some extra *****, or maybe just big ones... or something.. I dunno, WTF rob... anyways its sweet.

Edit: I think those are alaskans... What makes you think they are russian? I mean, one of hte rigs had russian on it, but the rest didnt. And all of the webpages shown in it have AK or alaska in them,

That was a pretty good clip, wouldn't catch me in that mud looked like a lot of physical labor

I'd like to see Ivan or Pro try and go up that hill wherever it is.

That Toyota and other rigs looked like they had no lift with maybe 33's
(on the hill).
It would be cool to see a heavily modded full size Ford wreck that hill.

I think they are Russian because the Alaskans hosting the video titled it RussianMuddingVid. I don't know how many are Russian and how many are Alaskan or where exactly it was filmed though. Sounds like a great couple of trips with lots of good stories to tell. I'll see if I can find more info.

Very nice vid. Always a fan em.

The only real problem I saw was not enough power to clean the wheels. that heep couldnt spin his tires for the life of him. That izzy looks like helluva lot of fun to drive

I hate to say it, but from the looks of that hill, the capt'n would be sitting on the frame. I've seen some muddy hills, and that was nuts.

Would seem like more fun if you could try the hill one at a time and be pulled out when you got stuck instead of having most of your groups rigs all stuck at the same time. I was beginning to wonder how far away from civilization they were and how many nights they were going to get to camp there? Maybe they brought enough alcohol and that's what they wanted all along.
