On October 10, 2020, a parked Jeep Wrangler rolled off the Black Bear Pass road with a passenger and two dogs inside. This video shows the view from another Jeep that witnessed part of the accident. Note that at the time of this recording, there was no longer anyone in the falling Jeep as the passenger had already been ejected from the tumbling vehicle. The passenger survived, but sustained very serious injuries. (Both dogs were eventually found and are in good health.)
Any proceeds from this video are being donated towards the passenger's recovery.

I was so glad to read that the woman injured in this accident is making good progress and is slowly regaining the ability to walk again, having been in a wheelchair at first.
Thank you for the update. Awesome news!!
Thanks that is really great news to hear. Whole thing makes me sick
thank you for update, I will send a prayer for a complete recovery for the dear one.
Who cares about her she CHOSE to be in that position, I'm more worried about the animals trapped inside the car because of her!
@@bashkillszombies Quote from the description, "Both dogs were eventually found and are in good health." But I certainly understand what you are saying!
So glad you had to do some adjustments at that 180º turn earlier!
@Jesus has given you all. Repent or die. Hail satan and shut up
@Jesus has given you all. Repent or die. If it's something positive "god good"
But that lady in the Jeep? "God works in mysterious ways lol"
@Jesus has given you all. Repent or die. lol
@Jesus has given you all. Repent or die. stfu!! No sign of that guy around here.

I spent a summer surveying mining claims in southeast Utah. To get around required a 4WD vehicle. After getting out of one place after another where I had gotten in a jam, my interest in 4-wheeling had completely gone away. It’s one thing to go to tough spots when you really need to. To me, I can’t see any fun in it. This video confirms and strengthens that feeling.
Yes, the mountains of Colorado are spectacular and breathtaking. I’ve hiked and camped in them.
I inspected construction projects for many years, including pipelines. I also don't understand the allure.
I don't have the urge any more either. I'm happy for those that do. To me its just an uncomfortable ride.
@@Lando62 Is it really that surprising? Mental illness is more common than you think. It manifests in different ways for different people. Hell, some people enjoy torture... Some enjoy having their spines being compressed in offroad vehicles.
I had a mildly built Jeep, my fun was the forest roads of Northern Minnesota, rather deal with angry moose, bears and occasional wolves than roll down a mountain.
It's something new to these people is my guess. If you live and work where you have to have 4x4 its common place just to get around, the novelty is just a way of life. But to be essentially in a traffic jam behind or with a bunch of other vehicles out slowly traversing roads like this with no end goal doesnt really seem appealing.
Honestly, the most insane part about this entire video is that you took a pause to look at the scenery on that sharp hairpin. I think you doing that, prevented that red jeep from crashing into you and knocking you off the trail...insane, I hope everyone recovers quickly and fully!
He never paused, he was turning
@@jannalam6861 paused , turned who cares... the timing was perfect
AVALANCHE could have been triggered by the jeep. He’s lucky that didn’t happen either

@@electrictroy2010 an avalanche are you fr rn bro
@@MrMcWizz nope
I can not believe you have this on footage. I’m a telluride local, born and raised. This is insane. So glad you were not a few seconds earlier to that spot
that slow 3 point turn may have just saved your life ! it's wheeling, so no need to be in a hurry :)
@george I have been to boulder, don’t think I’ve made it to telluride. Parents are from Texas and ancestors came to North America before USA was founded. Bfd.. hope this helps.
@MysteriousOklahoma ... stay off your sister.

Millionaire?
As a former Jeeper, who's been over every pass in the area... Yankee Boy, Imogene, Black Bear, Cinnamon, Red Mountain, and on roads that are barely roads and without names, that was a HORRIBLE sight to see! ONE SECOND of distraction can cost you, and maybe others, your Lives! I remember when 6 teenagers went off Yankee Boy. None of them survived. One day, I was coming back to Ouray from Silverton and saw two women pointing down the drop-off where there was no guardrail. I stopped to see why. One of them told me, "That's my car down there." A good 600 ft down was a sedan on it's roof. She said, "I was trapped in there for 3 days, before a trucker noticed tire tracks, and stopped. I was still conscious, and waving my arm out the window."
I have a DEEP, DEEEEEP respect for these mountains, and the "roads" within them.
We have Jeeped all of these trails too. This is the news story "The local sheriff says it began when the 22-year-old driver of the Jeep Wrangler Sport stepped out of the vehicle, turned off the engine and put on the emergency brake. But moments later, the Jeep started to roll with the passenger still inside." It has inexperience written all over it in my opinion. If it was auto it was not in park. If it was a manual left in gear the transmission should have held it. In either case the E brake did not hold.Thank God this young lady that went down with it has survived !
“As a former Jeeper” lmao
Makes me want to snort some vinegar
@bob marley I don't consider Jeep trails to be dumb. There is an element of danger. We hike in the San Juan mountains too and again there is an element of danger. The trip to Ouray is 1200 miles by car for us. I consider that to be more dangerous than Jeeping or hiking.
@bob Marley, don’t be such a hypocrite, you know if your pot plants were at the top you would risk it!
@@NookBoo 😆
Pretty sure I already commented on this video soon after it was put out... I've done BBP a number of times but when I think back on it, with all the fun with friends, I cannot help but always also recall this video... The driver of the black Jeep, and possibly a passenger as well (I have no audio right now) had / have World Class situational awareness! We always paid attention on trail to the possibility of falling rocks... Never thought a careening Jeep could have very easily taken my friend or I out, but wow.. Thanks again for this video!
You were seconds from death and still helped these folks out. Truly good on you ❤
Just the obvious thing to do.
The few seconds of backing up for the turn at 2:04 saved your life.
Three point turns are pretty much a requirement the whole way down, whether you are in a TJ or JKU or whatever. It's one of the most beautiful runs I've ever done and isn't technically hard, but if you aren't letting your gearing do the work instead of the brake as you go down, you are playing with fire.
The second backup saved your life.
@@davidlong5066 nice troll post
You think he could have stopped that Jeep? More like he would have gone down with it.
@@davidlong5066 try harder
The lady survived but is now in a wheelchair, my dads company fixed up her bathroom to make it wheelchair accessible
That's awesome, Bruce.
I feel so bad for this girl, Suzy, think of her often. Was she riding with her husband?
They stopped to take pictures or take a leak. The Ebrake failed.
@@someguy8811 jeep and the word failed go hand in hand
@@someguy8811 you mean it was never set
Spent so many years, decades, 4wheelin trails and mountains. Been all over from Swiss Alps to Rocky Mountains, and continents in between. Danger is everywhere for sure. Manage it best we can. Safety first. Prayers 🙏 daily. Live love enjoy life while we are here. Life is short. God bless. Stay safe.

My Grandpa said there is no such thing as luck! He said good things can happen when preperation meets opportunity no luck involved, but in this case id call it good timing!
@@nevadaboy9769 My grand father said the same to me.
Agree with your grandpa. Luck is a construction for people that like to use excuses for failure or success.@@nevadaboy9769
Knowing that the young lady in this jeep is now paralyzed, hit me hard. My heart hurts for you, Suzie.
Do u know if the dogs made it save?
@@imAdolff I had to read a few articles but found this: Rescuers flew the injured woman to a hospital for treatment, but the dog could not be found and was thought to have been killed.
But a few days later, another couple on the trail heard barking and howling. They used a high-powered spotting scope to locate the stranded pup in steep terrain.
Rescuers were called in and Decker was rescued, and incredibly, the pup had no significant injuries.
@@leslie9572 nice!
Thank you for replying
I Pray to Jesus she is healed and living her life 🙏 Amen.
I pray somehow someway. She is healed completely.
Good to watch these every now and then as cold reminder to not push your luck. Glad she is recovering!
I cannot imagine the terror this must have been seeing this happen, and to think if you had been a few seconds sooner...one gets chills thinking the outcome...Even for someone skilled in this type terrain, negotiating these roads would be unbearably tense! I would never have the balls to do it. I'm strictly a coastal Georgia "flatlander." This young lady is extremely fortunate to be alive and I pray for her recovery...peace 💖
A fine enough example of why no one will ever be able to talk me into going off road with them.
Shoot depends if your insane or not. I “off road” but I ain’t going on no fucking Prius width trail down a mountain, on a 4 wheeler sure not in a truck tho, or a keep for that matter. My trucks get muddy and love the dirt, just not mountain passes.
YOU'RE SMART😉👍🏻
@@matt.squarebody5427
100%. Im an experienced 4x4 but there are certain lines in the sand I won’t cross and this would be one of them. I have no need to prove myself to others by risking things on a trail that has not 1 inch margin of error. Nor do I want to risk friends. Egos and decision making never go together.
Flat stone desserts are pretty chill tho for offroading
Just stay away from the sides of cliffs.
Black Bear pass road has improved a lot. When i was a kid 10 or 11 years old my Dad took me up and over it. We went up from the Telluride side (very dangerous). Today you can only go down it. The only vehicle in the world that could make the corners back then, was a 40's or 50's WWII style Jeep. I vividly remember my Dad having to backup (down hill) on ever corner until the rear wheels where on the edge of the cliff. As a kid, It scared the SH%T out of me. From the top to the bottom is a sheer cliff a THOUSAND feet high with a tiny little road etched into its surface. Through the decades the road has been closed (to dangerous) for years at a time, it has killed a lot of people. Driving off the road is Not the only danger, Large falling rocks and landslides are very common. It is one of the most dangerous roads in the world.
Yall couldnt build a better road up ther yonder? Fkn Yankees...
When I was a kid the 1942 army Jeep we had could barely make the turns. Jeeps, etc. are too big today. I guess a UTV could make the turns. Never tried that. Didn't exist in those days.
Gee, thanks dad!
Your dad was taking you on a long trip to a short fall.
That was child abuse.
I was there aboutva week later. Glad to hear she is recovering.
This is why I now avoid any high place with a sharp drop off. In my younger years, I would fly up and down trails and road and edges didn't bother me but now I'm a get so uneasy I think I have a phobia of heights and drop offs. Now, I am a 'flat lander'.
My god dude! The time it took you to complete the switch back maneuver may have saved your life!
AVALANCHE could have been triggered by the jeep. He’s lucky that didn’t happen either
.
Terrifying! Donation sent, so happy to read she's been able to stand and take her first steps. Amazing woman! Incredible that the dog was able to walk away without injury and is now her service dog!❤️
im glad that everyone survived
The idiot in the red jeep almost killed two dogs and an innocent person
They gotcha profitting off of injury is as scummy as anything. The insurance paid well enough to cover it. And if there was no insurance they shouldnt be dumb but im sure there was insurance
@@nonethelessfirst8519 insurance will not cover everything. Huge deductibles that reset every year. Large monthly payments for insurance if your not working. Yes some safety nets are in place but based on timing, when last worked, how much money made last year and so on.
@@nonethelessfirst8519 Insurance is a scam that favors a few people so the rest are short changed. They like to draw our attention to the few who got big payouts so we don't notice the thousands who got nothing. That stated I agree to some extent because I was hurt working on a job site and it was our supervisor who failed to see the power line. Because of someone else's lack of training we were all hurt and my friend was killed. I broke both shoulders and have 13 screws holding my arm together. We all suffered worse than 3rd degree burns from the inside out. I barely got compensated and my lawyer took half the money. I'm talking $2500 for two broken shoulders and severe whiplash with PTSD. They say I'm 10% impaired so that's that apparently.
If it is so hard for people not making bad choices but doing dangerous jobs to get compensation then people who are choosing to do dangerous things should get the least compensation and have to justify why every other person paying for insurance should compensate them. Simply put healthcare is not sustainable and the cost of healthcare for most boomers is more money than they earned in their entire lifetime. So that cost is downloaded onto future generations.
People driving fossil fuel vehicles with extreme healthcare cost are having fun at the expense of the future generations. Every vehicle ruined, and every gallon of gas, is one less thing the future generations can enjoy. If we don't do more to preserve things in a somewhat sacred balance.
Personally I think you should assume 100% liability and risk if you want to go off the engineered roadway and into the wilderness. Unless you encounter toxic chemical pollution that someone dumped there illegally and it hurts you. Be aware, and be careful. Animals don't have ambulances and insurance. They die or they don't. Be free and realize freedom isn't free. Just be safe.
Excellent video coverage and super lucky for you. I've driven Black Bear a few times back in the 80's. There are some dicey spots!
Thank you for showing this. "thank God for saving you from that Jeep. Amen." i am so sad that things like this happen. There are so many people that go out into dangerous, dangerous country and do not even realize what can happen in 1 second. Take care...
You did a pause that refreshes and may have saved your life. I am glad she survived that terrible wreck.
Horrifying to see this. I remember as a child being absolutely terrified as my dad drove our family up this mountain pass. It literally felt like the tires were right on the edge of the precipice, and I was so terrified that my weight might cause the ground below the wheels to crumble that I moved to sit on the opposite side away from the dizzying view of the fall that potentially awaited us… I’m glad this woman was able to recover from her injuries. Watching this makes you realize that shit like this can happen to you; you are not special, you are not protected from calamity visiting you. Always be vigilant, be aware, and be safe y’all.
She's paralyzed apparently but that's some sort of recovery I guess yea.
@blahdeteyblah poop
@@itsAmeOFP Laughed so hard, spilled coffee all over my keyboard and monitors 🤣🤣
@blahdeteyblah who is “you people”? What exactly do you do with your life? Sit behind a computer to bash people for decisions that do not affect you or your life whatsoever?
Everything the original post says is so relatable to me. My dad use to drive crazy sometimes in the jeep he had and he would drive around with the doors off of it and the top off so it felt like a frame with seats, it didn’t feel safe at all. I too have felt the same demise in my childhood. Lol.
If I was a passenger in the car that was filming after seeing that happen I would be saying "Can I just get out and walk behind you on the rest of the way down?"
Dude this is so fd up. I hope she makes a full recovery. Stay safe people
Back in the late '80's a family of three fell off the Pike's Peak road. Their jeep was found about a mile down the mountain. All three people were ejected and did not survive. You got to be careful on those types of roads.
You got to be careful on ALL types of roads. Driving is dangerous period.
The paved and dirt roads around here (I'm in Ouray) can be very dangerous in an instant. I've seen rolled vehicles on virtually all the off road trails around here, but Black Bear is particularly notorious. Several years ago we were coming back from nordic skiing in Ironton in a light snow storm headed north on 550, and just after I went through a van went off the edge just passed the Engineer Pass turnout. I think they fell about 400 feet, and all 7 passengers walked away from the crash site. You guys were very, very lucky.
Rolled or fell 400 ft 😐
Getting paralysed is worth it for these thrill seeking junkies to partake in these sort of activities.
😯 that footage is insane! If she had been inside the jeep for that entire fall, I don't think there's a chance she could have survived. Hopefully she has a fast recovery.
UM... she's paralyzed.
@@mhorokyAnd she would’ve been worse than paralyzed had she not been thrown off
"It's a jeep thing, you wouldn't understand".......yup, nor would I want to
If you're a pvssy just say so, it's okay
Your life was also spared that day! Prayers for their recovery and thank god for this near miss!
Wow. Thanks for the mentioning and well being of the people and pets. I hope everyone recovered .
So sad but I am glad she retained her life god bless you suzie.....
sending prayers for this lady and her pets
There was also a dog in the jeep while it rolled down, they searched for the animal but couldn't find a trace. Remarkably and fortunately the animal was found ALIVE.
Edit: 2 dogs found ALIVE. Check desc for confirmation.
According to the GoFundMe page, there was only one dog - 'Decker'.
@@-D-W Really?
Glad to hear you've been doing better!! Keep up the great work :)
That is a miracle and a blessing she survived.
I'm glad you are still improving, I just found your GoFundMe page. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. Will see you on the trail when I do the Alpine Loop someday.
Thanks for sharing. That must’ve been crazy to see.
Thank you so much for donating your proceeds! As someone from her community, I'm pulling for her to make a full recovery. I just learned that she coaches middle school and high school volleyball. With the world in the shadows it's in right now, we need all the mentors and guidance we can get. Thanks again for your generosity!
@blahdeteyblah Agree with you 100%.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
@blahdeteyblah I am confounded as well. Given that people can do whatever they want with their hard earned money. Surely there are better ways to donate, such as to real victims of circumstances they CANNOT control.
I am so glad for the young lady who had the accident. That she seems to be getting better and better as time passes. That’s really awesome. I can empathize, too, because I was thrown from the vehicle and broke my back. I was luckier than most.
It's amazing how people take chances with their lives, I hope there was no one killed
I went over it one time and that was enough for me! Hope all have a full recovery.
i've said it once, i'll say it again, a lot of us are alive ONLY due to luck.
Facts
Understatement of the year! WOW! If he would have been moving any faster, she would have wiped him right off the mountain too!
Luck??? Some Earn The Darwin Award.
@@mpaz-cz8iz no arguing that.
As Robert Shaw said as the captain character in Jaws, " Sometimes the shark swims away and sometimes he don't."
Hope you’re doing well, Suzie
Oh my!!! I have not done Black Bear, but I have friends that have. You are so lucky you weren't going just a bit faster. I'm sorry to hear about the passenger. 😥
I've lived near this 4-wheel drive one-way road most of my life, I'm 61. There is a vehicle that loses it about every few years with usually fatal results. One vehicle was pounded into a rough cube, there is a photo of it floating around. When the picture was taken nobody knew one of the occupants was still inside the very, very small compact cube.
This is an experts only road that takes everything you let it. I used to drive the 4x4 roads all around it but never wanted to drive this one. There is NO room for a mistake. The road is carved out of the mountain and is actually steeper than it looks.
If you aren't a stone cold driver that never needs to use reverse you can have it. The rest of you should take the drive with one of the professional 4x4 drivers before even thinking of driving it.
I learned to drive in these mountains in the worst blizzards you have ever seen. The mountain roads here often drop hundreds of feet straight down and those are the Highways.
People die every year driving off the paved roads.
If you're a 'flat lander', hire a driver.
Don't play with yours or anyone else's lives, this isn't a game and pride has no place in you decision making here.
Okay but why the fuck would anybody willingly want to drive on that terrifying road? You're just asking to fall off a mountain at that point. Natural selection.
@@banginbadger75 Agreed. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
WOW! Saw the post on fb the day this happened. Hopefully everyone that was hurt makes a full recovery.
Apparently, the girl that was thrown from the Jeep is now paralyzed. Absolutely horrible
I was raised in the area, and we never made it over Black Bear without backing up for the hairpins. Some were HAIRY. My dad would get a kick out of scaring my mom by looking up the hill and pointing as we drove over. My mom would freak, my dad would laugh, and I would pee a little in my pants.
We used my grandfather's old International Scout with the bench seat up front and me bouncing around in the back. Great memories.
Prayers for this dear person.
She’s able to walk with a frame for assistance, she is incredibly lucky and so is the doggo
Glad she made it
@@TheITSBETTEROUTDOORS Not sure how a passenger can drive a parked car off a cliff...
lucky?? paralyzed is not lucky its living hell where you are trapped inside your body in fucking agony and cant do anything. Cant move your hands legs even sometimes cant move anything you are just there with your eyes unable to say please let me go.. Thats not living or lucky
@@simo805 he just said she can walk with a frame for assistance? Certainly not ideal but far from completely paralyzed, unable to move their hands and legs. Hoping and praying she can make a further recovery
@@simo805 I think dead people might disagree with you.... if they could....
I was there exactly one week earlier in my Jeep. Absolutely terrifying watching that and feeling lucky myself missing that by a week. Can’t imagine how you’re feeling missing that by seconds. Wishing the couple a speedy recovery!
Piece of shit-hole jeep
Of course you were.
Imagine imagining
WOW. I mean things can happen and here’s a reminder. Glad everyone survived ❤
I am incredibly amazed how well the roll cage held up as it rolled down that really big hill.. never have I been so unable to express the sadness to the folks in that red jeep..
I've driven down Black Bear, you definitely cannot let your guard down at all. God Bless.
Unbelievable you guys are lucky as well. I hope that one person that was injured is doing fine now.
That's definitely not easy to watch as a fellow jeeper. Praying for recovery.

Not easy to watch....period! Horrific
🤣 loved seeing this!
@@louisbaez9456 The woman and HIS dog? Yeeeeet
That's just terrifying to think how close you were from the impact. Positive vibes for the young woman. Hope she makes a full recovery. Stay safe out there people because you never know when it's your turn.
Thank God she survived, having owned three Jeeps in my lifetime, and driven on mountain roads in Arizona , in various 4X4's , I know the danger, I pray she walks again
this just makes me appreciate the drivers from those deadliest roads documentaries even more. even without modern car accommodations, theyre still better drivers
At least they're doing a job! Some people just wanna gamble their lives away
Just wow. Wishing her a successful recovery 🙏
Back when I was 23 I lost one of my best friends to the guy she was dating Jeep slipping off the edge of a cliff. She had just been in my wedding 2 weeks before. It made me sick to my stomach. 35 yrs later I still own a 4x4 truck, live in the mountains but haven’t gone 4 wheeling since that awful Friday night, 35 yrs ago.
I am trying to commiserate, what a sudden and terrifying shock that must have been. I have no other better words than to say that death is so doggoned final. I know that you honor your friend in your heart every day. May heaven bless you.
That is crazy I’ve seen the video all around the internet and I didn’t know there was someone inside. Glad you survived and hope your recovery is going well.
She wasn't inside for the part on this video, she was ejected a little before this shot. Had she gone all the way down, she wouldn't be here today.
@@freedomrider266 How far did she tumble down? Incredible that she didn't go the full distance, with momentum and all.
Hot damn. Good thing you took that turn with a few points or else you might be collateral damage. Prayers for everyone’s recovery.
The fact that lady survived is both a miracle and a blessing. One thing to consider for wheelers in steep country like this is ALWAYS eyes on the road DRIVE the vehicle first and go SLOW as it is better to have to speed up rather than have to slow down. Would doubt a newer vehicle like that would have suffered mechanical failure to cause that disaster. But again hope she makes a full recovery.
It wasn't a mechanical failure. The driver had stepped out to help an inexperienced driver take a difficult turn. This exact situation is why inexperienced drivers have no business on trails like these.
I'm so glad she lived and it's recovering. This is horrible.
She lived, but will never recover.
Were you aware of the vehicle coming down? Fortunate that you stopped. Best wishes to Suzie and hope she continues to heal!
AVALANCHE could have been triggered by the jeep. He’s lucky that didn’t happen either
.
Even after a year, my heart was still pounding while watching this clip I do hope that you made a full recovery and are healthy as can be
Thank you for posting this and the gofundme link, she definitely needs all the help she can get. I just rode Black Bear Pass 2 weeks ago on my bike, not an easy ride. Great video, thanks. Go throw this girl some help!
@Joe Huff What did she do that lacks common sense? She was the passenger, not the driver. A complete victim of perhaps another persons mistake. You must be a very angry man, sorry for you.
@Joe Huff Stayed in where? wtf are you talking about? She was seatbelted in the Jeep when it started to roll away over the cliff after the driver exited. Do you have any idea what you are talking about? christ
Hope youre doing well Miss Suzie
Holy crap that is intense. Came here after TFL mentioned this video following another recent crash.
I was in the area in 2004 when a Jeep rolled off of Black Bear. They were from back east, I believe a brand new Jeep. There were deaths. Glad to see you barely missed that one...
Glad to hear everyone was ok! Praying for her recovery-
They lived?!..😨
@@tarzaan2603 yes
Obviously not ok SMH....you make no sense lol
they lived and were fine. Obviously OK@@megclifton6692
I went down two days after this happened. Didn't even know about it until a week later and went and looked at my GoPro footage and I noticed the soft top laying on the side of the trail in the video. Glad they are doing okay now.
Thats 3 point turn really saved your life
Glad y’all didn’t get hit and thanks for posting! Hoping she pulls through... so scary to see that.
Praying for speedy recovery 😔
This is the kind of things you never wish on anyone. Hope she is recovering well
Timing is everything another few seconds you would have been in the path of that vehicle. It's amazing that lady survived.
I originally saw a shortened clip of this on TikTok a week ago. Someone's telling the story as if it happened to them.
It didn't say that there was a gofundme page or that no-one was in the JK when you captured this.
Thanks for posting the true details and the gofundme info.
i gotta agree with the others..the time you took to make the turn and your patience definitely saved you. wishing the best for the woman that was injured in the accident. this video is a good reminder how you really need to be patient and careful when offroading.
equally possible is that taking the extra seconds could've made the difference of him being an obstacle to the tumbling car, it would've been rotten luck to have been hit. Say there was 99 places his car could've been and the 1 position would've led to a collision, it would've been a freak accident if he ended up on the dead zone. Dodging the rolling car was a 99% possibility and just cuz it tumbled right in front of him, doesn't make it a more likely chance that it could've hit him, all 99 positions that avoid the crash are equal probabilities.
Bla bla bla
I hope anyone involved is fully recovered. But I have to say, I am glad one more of those are off the road.
Love how your camera is self leveling!
I was on this pass a month ago, and know how steep it is. It is a blessing from God that they are both alive. Praying for a full recovery for each of them.! Also glad your jeep wasn't any further ahead than it was, I know you are too
@Toughen Up, Fluffy Right?...The dude is calling it a blessing from God when people are rolling off cliffs in Jeeps!..lol..insanity is for real..
@@michaelsteven1090 you reap what you sow, it IS a blessing this person was not struck by the falling jeep, perspective is key.
I’ll pass on the “blessing” that leaves you paralyzed, thank you very much.
I have a 4 wheel drive truck but I must say that going on roads like this is insane. I'm guessing that after watching this that there will be less people willing to get on this road. Very happy to hear that Suzie survived this terrible incident. Praying for your full recovery. 🙏🙏🙏
Holy shit! That’s amazing! Jesus you missed that thing by only a few feet. Glad you’re OK man
Love you suzie!
Donated! Prayers for a full, speedy recovery for everyone. So glad you were able to stop in time!
I'm in Loveland, I've been on that pass a long time ago. This is insane. Seriously praying for that woman. My goodness. So glad you're okay though.
I suspect more people will be seeing this video after the tragic news of 3 people losing their lives while driving a Jeep in Colorado’s San Juan mountains.
What a terrifying ordeal. I pray for those lost and affected by this tragedy. 🙏🏻
I just watched that then watched this.
That's why I am watching.
Whole new perspective to C.W. McCall’s song “black bear road”
"You don't have to be crazy to drive this road, but it helps"
Just scratched that activity off of my bucket list which saved my life and a ton of money. No matter how careful we are, stuff happens... hope they recover and continue to live their dreams.
If not removed at least moved to the end of the list.

Hysterical and, also, SAME

You aren't kidding about " a ton of money", as building an off road vehicle, just makes it so it can get stuck or broken in places that are harder and harder to get out of, so, I went back to fishing as a main hobby and couldn't be happier 😀Off road driving is NOT relaxing either, especially on "white knuckle" pass roads such as Black Bear. It's main benefit is you get to see some truly amazing scenery you will not see from a paved road view.
Holy Lord- in those split seconds while her and the 2 dogs got thrown holy crap- 2 dogs are ok - one had to be found and the young lady has had surgeries on her spine already-- healing to her and her companion in the jeep-- wow
Thank you for providing a comment w actual information.
We had just completed the trail and were in town when we started hearing about this. Definitely a beautiful trail and should be on everyone’s bucket list. Be safe
holy shit!! wow this place is insane! I hope the lady is alright seeing its been a couple years.
I remember getting stuck for half a day on the trail from a freak hail/ rain storm. It caused massive rock blocks on the trails and a lot of headaches. Black Bear is fun and exciting but please listen to the radio for warnings. The only Jeeps/ Samurais on the trail that day had Texas plates on them.
Hope you guys get back to it asap! God speed! Be careful brother!
Wow! I’m so sorry. Poor husband!
I remember driving that pass back in maybe the late 90s early 00s in a stock rental wrangler. Was a great trail ride.
How many traverses above was the jeep rolling down from? Looked pretty beat already and had at one point hit a tree as it had bark in the back right wheel.
