These videos are nuts... a little bit of panic when you're not used to your vehicle and inexperienced can end up in big doo doo.

I don't know if he fell out. He says he thought it was going to flip over, to me it looked more like he put his leg out to keep his 2 ton jeep from flipping over (even though it wasn't going to), which really makes him retarded if he thought he'd stop a rollover with his leg. That would have been a really ugly ending to the video if the Jeep had been about to tip.

Not sure how this guy got in this situation in the first place but looks pretty bad. I am assuming with the lack of medical personel that everyone was ok.
