Almost4x4

You'd think that they'd at least put up a flag to let people know there's a 100m hole there. This happened in Saudi a few days ago. In areas where there is fresh water under ground the locals dig wells and support the sides with concrete and stones to keep the sand from falling back in to the well. Some of these are up to 100 meters deep. This particular one was 60 meters deep and 4 meters wide, located outside the small town of Riyadh in the center of Saudi. The guys went out in the desert for a bit of 4X4 fun on a Thursday when one of them drove in to the well and dropped 60 meters to the bottom with his V8 Cruiser. Rescue workers retrieved the car and the driver had a mild concussion from hitting his head against the wind screen. Hard to believe he is alive.

OH my GOD he is lucky i think thats the risk leaders take to be the first in all situations hope we don't see any of our team members having bad time and all the trips are safe and fun.

Scary thing
That's Why its safer if u drive with group not alone
Thanx blue eye

Do you believe how much risk the marshals (especially the first leader) are taking to make very trip a success.
God save them and you all.

simply unbelievable, thank god no life was lost here. it must have been a harrowing experience for them. I wonder if they were driving alone who would have found them and when..I shudder at the thought.. in a group we all watch each other and help each other but this again goes to reinforce the need to be cautious at all times..let me take this opportunity to thank our leaders, marshals, sweepers who go out of the way to keep us save.. god bless you all and protect us all..
