Somehow I am not surprised that these guys are from Texas.

Maybe he chose that over splitting the truck with the ex-wife in the upcoming divorce.
And if there wasn't a divorce pending before the jump . . .

That's what I was thinking. She got the truck in a bitter divorce case. Other than that, it makes no sense? Or else, its an insurance claim where he is trying to get out of paying for it and is going to call it in stolen? But what about the camera rolling on the jump and filming him with who knows how many witnesses? Maybe people are just that stupid and desperate to wind up getting a lot of hits on youtube?

Eh, I don't think any production vehicle will survive a 90 ft jump.

I think you misunderstood. I would buy a new one in a heartbeat if I had the cash. A used one is bound to have had an owner that has beat the snot out of it while off roading. Insurance would never cover those costs so nothing would show up on the records.
I'm waiting for the first person to die from one of these jumps. It is just a matter of time. These things weren't meant to take this kind of abuse.

My thoughts exactly!
Didn't this guy do the math on what speed he needed to land properly? If he did he was WAY off!

Math? In Texas?
Probably illegal, just like teaching evolution in Kansas.
Yes, as a guy who loves to do aerobatics with his Bronco, I can say that they were going a bit fast for that jump.

Wouldn't they still shatter from the impact?

What I cannot imagine is that even with a seatbelt on your going to hit your head on the roof of the truck. Lucky they didnt break their necks or damage their skulls!
As for the truck I bet the frame needs a bit of straightening and all the shocks replaced too!
Unbelieveable!!

You mean Bo & Luke didn't really jump over a creek with the bridge out & not even get a scratch on their car, LOL?

Um I think there was already some damage in the skulls before doing this...obviously.
