Not really, he was going pretty slow anyway... rule No1 is don't drive up or down side slopes at an angle, always present yourself at 90deg to the slope.

I'm not sure what language they are speaking, but it was definitely not English but the Paj had UK plates............. I bet a week or two later, it was on ebay sold as A1 condition.
I have seen some work done by a Lithuanian friend on crash damaged cars.......... you would never have known the cars had ever been damaged, the attention to detail was unbelievable.

up to 0:20 he could have steered hard to the left, that was pretty much the point of no return. And I do think he pushed too much at that point too to make if up the ledge.
not sure if I entirely agree with haylands' 90* rule. approaching at an angle gives you betters use of ground clearance and approach/departure angle especially for LWB. Of course you need to judge how much of an angle to aply and in the clip it was definitely too much. I would say 15 - 20 off the 90 in his case and he would have been fine, he was more like 45* off.
