Author’s Note
We strongly advise our readers to avoid engaging in such activities at all costs. Driving in snow requires special kind of skills. While off-roading SUVs are engineered to navigate remote destinations, this doesn’t justify their mistreatment. Deliberately subjecting these vehicles to challenging situations is an open invitation to trouble, significantly increasing the likelihood of accidents. Some YouTubers may perform various stunts for personal enjoyment or to attract views, but that doesn’t mean we should imitate them. Let’s commit to being responsible drivers and refrain from attempting anything of this nature.
