There probably would have been less damage if it had just rolled to the bottom


We apologize for the low quality video, but this was too good not to share. This poor guy rolled his ATV and probably feared that it would roll all the way to the bottom of the hill. He had a moment of relief when it landed back on four wheels only to have the throttle stick and have to watch his ATV run wide open back down the hill and out of sight.

Growing up in Oregon, most of Seth's involvement in the powersports world was limited to what he saw in magazines and videos.
