F.Y.I. - A rollover is when the vehicle completely rolls over 1x or more. A "Flop" is when a vehicle flips on its side and comes to a rest. The 4
Runner in the video flopped on its side, and I cannot say if it had to do with drinking, but early in the video, it appears that DJ's passenger was
drinking (i.e. "Open Container") and it's not clear whether or not the driver was driving while impaired or not. I wish more of this flop was not
edited out, because I'm sure more could be figured out.

I too would be interested in knowing what kind of camera was used as I too saw that vehicle bouncing and the camera was still and gave some great
video without bouncing like the vehicle.

That might be a roll?, I will be on pins and neddles waiting for the verdict! Or on second thought maybe I will go see if it is as hot in San Felipe
as it is Salome "where She Danced".

That my friend was a roll. 3/4 - nearly 1 whole! Not a good way to spend the
day on the beach!

Watched a guy in a super-crew with paper license plate go over about 5 times at Pete?s camp after the poker run a few years ago. He was doing
doughnuts out their all evening in the tide line. We could see the guy bouncing around in the cab like it was a washing machine. They flew him out
with severe head injuries. Darwin strikes again......

After checking the vidio, looks to me that the main problem was with the trail boss who let the vehicles that were already thru that tough spot stop
at a point which did not allow the Toyota to completly get thru it before he had to stop. And kind of a panic stop it looked like.
