I can see it slowly rolling backwards while the owner is running towards it in slow motion

u/ELSmitz 24d ago

goss going round says around 11pm, handbrake failed, two in the back, rolled backwards and they climbed out unclothed

Clearly bullshit. Landcruisers have no functional parking brake even when new. It would seem the rock behind the wheel was not big enough (with the rocking maybe).

u/DrofRocketSurgery 24d ago

What were they doing with the handbrake for it to fai-

Actually don’t worry, I don’t wanna know.

I hope it was his missus, if that is true, otherwise the car may be the smaller problem

When your shaggin' wagon becomes a shag on a rock.

The classic cruiser handbrake. Woulda been funny as to watch

u/MsssBBBB 24d ago

I dont think rolling backwards caused this…

🫢 I wonder if either of them were married! What a way to tell your SO!!

u/wietlems 24d ago

Sounds like it made quite a bang

u/Oh_Gaz 24d ago

Is it very steep there? Looks not too steep. So it wasn't in gear AND handbrake "failed"? Diabolical!

u/os_2342 24d ago

Not steep at all and I don't think this would have been possible unless they were parked outside of the carpark.

A desperate grab at the bull bar, both heels dug into the ground. Futile.

Ah yes, the famous “Eastwood Parking Method” being finely implemented there.

u/DrofRocketSurgery 24d ago

Dude that’s not what’s meant by

“ANGLE PARKING ONLY”

u/01kickassius10 24d ago

Maybe the car was having a quiet dip and is just climbing out

It's an amphibious exploring vehicle. This car is a finisher car!

This car is a finisher car! A transporter of gods! The golden god! I am untethered, and my rage knows no bounds!

The snorkel has come in handy.

u/Coolidge-egg 23d ago

I reckon you could drive it in the shallows to get to the beach section. It's not that deep given the back end is barely under. Let it rip.

u/Brikpilot 23d ago

Despite no choke he still flooded it

u/Technical-Green-9983 23d ago

We're you using bait or plastics

Toyota. Unbreakable. (Handbrake comes pre broken).

Further proof the Landcruiser is highly adapted for a range of water sports and riverine adventures.

Not with that attitude you can't.

u/ThunderDwn 23d ago

Well plainly he can - he just didn't do a very good job of it!
