Good effort. Don't forget skiers / boarders can land these jumps, it's not like dropping straight onto flat gound. I've seen it done on a motocross bike and the landing was pretty smooth.

Flat landings are never pretty smooth!

AMAZING! But why does he check his rear view mirror (0m 23secs) just before he hits the ramp? Is he expecting to see Evil Knievel or something?

Skiers and crossers etc can alter the angle of the bike/board/skis in mid flight to ensure they land at around the same angle as the ramp though, i'd be surprised if you can do that in a car.

Still, that makes it all the more impressive IMO.

I wondered if he had separate front and back brake controls to alter the angle of landing.

could you control it off the throttle, like on a dirt bike?

Depends how the 4wd works in the air I suppose.

Nah, surely not. On a bike, its the weight generated/lost by spinning up or stopping the individual wheels (centrifugal force, and all that) that makes the bike move around - but remember a bike + rider weighs fap all compared to a scooby + bloke with massive nuts!

My spincter receeded into my body watching that landing. I want the link to the snow jump, or I shall scream like the 2 year old I just tried to read a story too.
