I'd hate to see that same test on 37's and no doors with crash test dummies inside.

It did well in the other test, but wooohoo Dukes Of Hazard style on the first one!

From the slow motion video it looks like the front fender being narrow/pointed made the Jeep deflect off the obstacle vs straight on impact especially when the LF hub/axle gave way.
