8 more or less meters, Suzuki or Unimog, big or small budget, what matters is having the "balls" to go until the end and never give up ! Congratulations to the team. I am waiting for the next event !
Really... I don't want to hear moody depressed music, that keeps repeating the same chords over and over again, in a video with Unimogs crawling over this and that. exactly, Maximusfuscus, engine sounds, chains clanging, tires on rocks....!
it sucks man! we climb up ojos del salado in 2020 and it's disgusting to see vehicle tracks at that elevation... really a big shit... (ah, in name of science jaja)
Amazing achievement !! the landscape around Ojos del Salado is really beautiful, we crossed the Paso San Francisco going from Copiapó to Fiambalá to attend the 2017 Dakar with my brother René and my sons Ignacio and Vicente !!! AMAZING ... If I could I would go again tomorrow morning !!!!
Pésimo me parece haciendo pelota lo poco que tenemos. Espero que kaufmann no se preste para eso. De lo que yo entiendo el caballero es inteligente me llamaría la atención que se preste para romper glaciares que son mucho mas valiosos que hacer un récord que no tiene sentido alguno.
Last time they used MAN trucks because Mercedes didn't want to help them (I know two of the guys that went up there personally) the MAN trucks were supposed to break the record, the only thing that broke was the truck tho xD they managed to build a high altitude shelter tho
Wow now that is impressive! Those spiked chains look seriously effective as well... That slope in the final shot was really steep, I bet turning around and trying not to roll was "entertaining"... Top job, well done 👍
Dont think a Sherp could do this.. Sherp is really nice.. but its very short and high center.. I think the would flip or need loads of counterbalance up front
@@joebessette6565 Yeah, but a sherp does not have any articulation. Beyond the tire deformation, if you drive one corner up on a rock, you're going to lift two other corners into the air also.
@@xtnuser5338 That's a consideration but the tires are such a large percentage of the vehicle overall. I think it would do just fine without skipping a beat.
Well, now the Suzuki Samurai hold the record for petrol-powered, and the Unimog for diesel powered! (That Samurai had a Vitara 1.6i 16valve which were supercharged, and had ARB diff-locks)

Impressive. I wish the video would provide some information on the type of engine used in these Unimogs. All version sold in Europe are set to operate at altitudes of 3000 m asl at maximum due to the Euro 6 emission standard which has been mandatory for new vehicles since 2016. If you purchase or build an expedition vehicle in the EU you cannot take it to the Andes without running into major trouble. Pass roads over the Andes reach almost 5000 m asl, an altitude at which the engine control system will operate only in emergency mode (if at all). If you buy Unimogs in South America you avoid these restrictions as there are no emission standards equivalent to EU 6. However, it is illegal to operate these versions in Europe and Mercedes doesn't sell them. A catch-22 really ... The only option is to purchase a vintage Unimog with EU4 emission standards which can operate at any altitude. In fact, the most popular Unimogs for expedition vehicles are former military versions from the late 1980ies to early 1990ies (U1300) which can be brought to EU2 emission standards. They are probably the best Unimog version for expedition vehicles due to their toughness and relatively simple mechanics.
Ecu recalibration. I’m sure the builds are extensive considering the sponsorships. Look at an aircrafts tuning requirements at alt if you’re interested in the specifics 👍🏽
Actually in the State of CA, USA we have the most strict emissions laws in the world, pretty much killing off most consumer diesels, smog tests every 2/4 years, fees and taxes up the ying/yang.
For EU6 Trucks you can do the ECU and some other bits. Turn that switch over and the unimog gives a shit about adblue and eu6. You gotta have anyways some kind of coding device on expedition to delete some failure codes and what not. Basically it is illegal to even have that switch.. but to be honest an expeditionvehicle has so much tech, so many switches.. nobody would ever find out if you stay with EU6 (stock mapping) within europe and just leave the switch for other continents. This really works for modern unimogs. Of course the old bundeswehr ones are a bit more reliable and can be repaired with basic mechanic skills all over the world.
These emissions standards are both extremely inconvenient and dangerous to those that use their rigs in environments that are deadly such as firefighters and arctic expeditions. I've known firefighters that have been in the Bush, escaping an encroaching fire and their truck goes into limp mode because it's decided to regen. I've also seen videos of people in their sprinter Vans having their DEF tanks freeze up while in the arctic, and almost get stranded because of the POS system. Not only all of those issues, but the new "technology" breaks down frequently and is very expensive to replace, leaving your vehicle in limp mode at the most inconvenient of times, it seems.
Unimog... where you can go anywhere!! why did you take the spare tire in the front off at the last part? Wouldn't help to climb with more weight on the fron axle?
The Suzuki didn't put on chains though if I remember correctly. It was normally aspirated engine so it couldn't change the fuel mixture for the higher altitudes.
If you guys have ever driven a Unimog up steep loose rocky slopes, you'd realize going up digs and will mostly stay put when stooping . Rolling down is a different story. Gravity is constantly pulling you down slipping and gaining momentum as it you try to crawl. Doing a U turn at this angle, you'd find yourself sliding sideways and pushing chances of a never ending roll over and certain death. I've only been up to14,400 feet up in one of my Unimogs on loose fractured granite, but I'm pretty sure the gravity works the same.
@@sulyluu Not a chance of turning round at those angles, you'd be on your side and rolling to the bottom before you could blink, reverse down while paying out winch cable at a nice steady pace would be the safest option.
Honest question, I always put my chains on the front tires of 4X4, but Ive never help pull someone up a mountain, is there a reason why they put those chains on the back tires while towing?
I'd love to know if the engine was modified to operate in such altitudes. Would it start if the engine got cold so high up? Second turbo, maybe? So many questions.
No. Sean igualados los de susuki y todos el resto. Entre comillas todo terrenos. Pero en la ciudad y cualquier pedacito de destapada plana por hay tengo 70 años. Los maneje todos. No tienen nada que hacer con el unimog sea el modelo que sea. Respeten al rey. De los carros sólidos y sencillos. Que nada se le daña. Saludos. Desde sur america. Tengo un 406.1968.
In the comments I often read comments which talk about that like it's nothing special, just because it's just a little bit more than the Suzuki Samurai record. Why so toxic? A Suzuki Samurai weights around 1000kg, the Unimog weights between 7 and 15 tons if I remember correctly. This one is quite loaded. If a Truck drives 300km/h you wouldn't say it's not impressive just because a tuned supra drives over 300km/h, they are completly different categories. And of course it's impressive what the Suzuki did and cool to have such offroad capabilities, especially at this price point, but it's quite limited in terms of load capacities. Nice for offroading but you wouldn't be able to do a long expedition or carry heavy equipment, which is the job of the unimog. I'm not sure if that was part of this video, but they used the unimog to carry radio stations on a mountain, as far as I know, depending on the weight that's not possible to do with a small offroader. In my opinion it's stupid to talk about this record like it's not impressive just because a car with a tenth or fifteenth of the weight (and probably a twentieth of the loading capacity) achieved the same. (Again, not to say it isn't impressive either, but it's just not comparable.)
the engines used are UNIMOG engines , non stock not sale and built for the Extrem Events Matthias Jeschke and advanced turbos which are currently the only ones globally in existence to perform above 6500 metres which was the goal set out by the team to reach their goal of this height, awesome engineering, thats the easier part, put yourself in the driver seat of one of these trucks and having the balls to drive up slopes like this that are basically all sand and gravel and not overheating the powertrain so you can't to achieve your own world record, this is the best form of crazy off road driving, Moab is a sand box compared to this, almost 22,200 feet wow just wow
Da wäre ich echt gern dabei gewesen! Nicht als Fahrer im oberen teil aber sonst auch das gerne.. absolut pervers... aber die 6m sind doch noch zu schaffen.. 😂 wahnsinn aber wirklich.. und wunderschön dort..
I agree about the music. Totally unnecessary. Not sure what this proves as the Unimog has always proved what an awesome machines they are. And the world's best off roader by far.
So in 2007 two dudes hop in a Suzuki Samurai and set the record. Then 13 years later you have a whole expedition crew come out with two trucks. They put big spikey chains on the tires, train the trucks together to get through steep sections, and then winch off of a big rock to beat the record by... 8 meters! The Samurai still holds the record in my book. I bet these guys would have used a helicopter to lift the truck to the top if it was possible.

I just love the portal axles, they give so much ground clearance.

@@lukasolsz Probably a Jimny.
Okay. For us Amerikans that would be 21,691 feet (and 11 inches)
NOW I’m impressed.
And it was done in America! Admittedly, South America.
Obnoxious comment. We are all Americans Dude! From the Patagonia up to the Behring Strait. Know your Geography before commenting!
@@JuanPabloRojasW Very good answer 👍
Im sorry our education is a little deficient and the ignorant patriotism doesnt help
nobody cares about inches and feet, because legally speaking they don't exist.

Einfach unglaublich! Was für ein Erlebnis. Gratulation!!
What's more impressive is that a suzuki made it that far which is much more of a challenge!
meh. The suzuki didnt deliver four radiostations. Also still impressiv by the little suzuki

Please re-edit this without the music
The Unimog did it. I expected that. But that a DRONE flies at this altitude....awesome!

Imagine the sounds of these engines working, suspension bouncing, frames squeaking and tires crunching over the terrain. Literally
Awesome machines with the most befitting scenery. One day, I will own my unimog
Why is the spare tire hung out so far up front. Does it add some extra counterbalance on the front wheels?
they added this adjustable boom with heavy spare tire to balance the vehicle in extrem climb...
UNIMOG is the king!!!
King truck
But off-road no longer
Now it's

I'm looking forward that one day a Sherp can also take this kind of expedition. Great video by the way. Thanks for sharing!
Dont think a Sherp could do this.. Sherp is really nice.. but its very short and high center.. I think the would flip or need loads of counterbalance up front
Sherp is massively underpowered for this undertaking as well, I believe.
No, the sherp can handle steep terrain and certainly is not underpowered.

@@joebessette6565 Yeah, but a sherp does not have any articulation. Beyond the tire deformation, if you drive one corner up on a rock, you're going to lift two other corners into the air also.

Suzuki Samurai held this record at 6688m, not bad for a low budget expedition.

Impresionante, que maquinas son los Unimog, un sueño, imagenes y aventura espectaculares. Por que llevan la rueda tan adelante? Contrapeso?
Flipping Incredible Awesomeness
Exceptional Video & drone footage ; BEYOND-Boundaries......... BIG-TANX.
Is 6x6 mog better for this duty ?
It wasn't their primary goal, it was to setup climber safety equipment, this was a side goal this they were already so close.
E incrível esse pequeno caminhão offroad da Mercedes,subir em lugares tão elevados e inclinados.
Pequeno? 🤣
So like rock climbing but with a unimog... got it! More truck noises are needed

Wouldn't help to climb with more weight on the fron axle?
i thought that,more weight on front helps,&,only spikes on rear.
nice tyres. what size?
Well done for besting a 1986 Suzuki Jimny by 8 meters.
Great - except Jimneys were much later models. Probably a Samurai.
@@PAVANZYL depends what country you live in, I think they are all jimnys in japan even the old 550cc 2 stroke kei cars
Sure, but this attempt was just a secondary goal since they were already so close to beating the record. Their primary purpose is in the description.
The Suzuki didn't put on chains though if I remember correctly. It was normally aspirated engine so it couldn't change the fuel mixture for the higher altitudes.
6 metros
Did they have enough spare tires?
Amazing congratulations on team and the unimog
Great video!! amazing expedition and trucks!!
And then you have the scary part, going back down in reverse!
I think they would try and turn them around, they have winches and lots of cable... Hopefully the show that next.

yes it is crawling with them at those altitudes, known fact
IT IS A VERY GOOD , IN A VEICHULE BUST IS A NATUREZE E VERY BEAUTIFUL TOO HAPPY CONGRATULATIONS
Increible , felicitaciones
Do they put the spare on the back for the way down?
En qué consecionario se pueden comprar estás unidades?
why they didnt go on top of mountain?, i saw path on the video
Maybe engine suffocated. Maybe ground too loose. Or supplies short. Or they just didnt want to, as it wasnt the main priority of their mission.
I'd love to know if the engine was modified to operate in such altitudes.
Would it start if the engine got cold so high up?
Second turbo, maybe?
So many questions.
Its not only the temp, its the air density that would be a problem. i'd say these unimogs definitely are modified.
well done! hats off
