Nah, I don't think so. At least, if it is, its daym good photochop. It would be a pain in the rear to get a picture of that truck with that kind of an angle on it. You would have to put up on a lift so the wheels are at full droop, then drive it so the back tires were spinning, have the light at the right angle so i matches up with the rest of the picture, etc, not to mention the sand that u can see it kicked up when it took off. I think it would be easier to jump the truck. I mean, if they can get bigfoot to jump a 737, they can get that little thing up in the air. BTw...thats my new wallpaper :)

Whatever. My truck can do that too. :devil:

What I'm really curious about is whether that thing would be referred to as a "truck" or as a "collection of metal, plastic and rubber pieces in a big hole" about 3 seconds after that picture was taken? That is seriously one of the coolest photos I've ever seen... if he landed it! :D

The pic ain't Photochopped and it drove away to fight another day. To build a truck like that would require at least $50,000 above and beyond the price of the truck.

There are probably less than 100 fullsize 4-wheel vehicles on earth that can jump like that and do it again, and again, and again.

There is some good Glamis video (and pics) online that makes this picture look routine. On a busy holiday weekend in Glamis you can find Robby and Curt out launching their trucks over and over like it's nothing more than a small bump in the road. Built to take it and drive it til' you break it.

I dont know for sure, but im just saying that it would be easy for someone good at PS to make any truck look like its jumping that high.

It doesnt even have to be a different pic, that truck coulda jumped in that same spot only much lower and it could be PS'd to lool higher.

PS- That truck is over 12ft in the air, not impossible tho, esp if the other side of that dune drops down far.

Now, whether or not its a smart move.. well thats another question.

I think it's real but Henry is right, it's not very hard at all to manipulate the height of the truck....

Alright you guys quit pickin' the picture apart, There is no doubt in my mind that truck caught some awesome air, It is an easy thing to pull off in the dunes, the landing will not be that harsh judging by the suspension that truck has.:read:
