Back before Heckter was a pup and Moby Dick was a minnow, I had a 1986 kx 500. I thought I was as brave and fearless as they come. Now I call it stuped!
The next three shots were taken by my girlfriend, of the time, standing in the bed of a 1983 GMC 3500 with 44" tires and the accompaning lift. My bud's dared me to jump the truck and of course being 22 I was happy to help out. The photos tell the story of the hill leading up to the truck. BUT, on the other side of the truck about a 30 foot drop to a flat ledge or landing. I was not suposed to get all the way to the flat! Well I did. Up over the hill, over the truck and SPLAT. My face gard bent the cross bar the tank knocked the wind out of me. I kept it on two wheels but man did it hurt.....for days.

I have two maybe three different shots of this. So I know there were at least that many cameras and no one got a shot of the landing....Go figure!
