Oh, no real mystery. Failed hill start, coming back down and felt rear right wheel drop into a hole. Touched brakes and pendulum effect took over with engine so much higher then rear axle. Over she went. Sand ladder went through rear screen, fuel can through quarter glass. Engine hydraulic - ed.
It turned out that it wasn't a hole, but a little mound on the left hand side that put one wheel up.
A very sorry weekend and a draughty ride home.
This isn't me in the clip, but this is effectively what happened. Clearly I didn't go over the edge either, but the ease at which it can happen is staggering.
