Agree with you there - what I meant was fully open so that you could lean out like in the vid. I also keep mine open a tad just in case (and carry a life hammer)

would a cross type wheel brace do the same job as a "life hammer"? butane

A life hammer is much more compact and less likely to fly around the cabin and injure you in a (God forbid) crash or rollover. I have a small one I got with my 1st car back in the 80s and I still have it.

So long as you have anything that can chip the edge of the toughened glass to make it explode. Pliers to grip onto the glass edge and a simple pull back will make the glass explode. Tapping the edge with a small hammer or a fist sized rock will do it easily too. Good things to have at arms length if needed. A file is equally as good. A few hard rubs back and forth along the glass edge will make the glass "blow up" too.

If the window's closed, jamb a descent sized thick flat head screw driver into the top rubber and work it to chip the edge of the glass to make it explode into tiny fragments.

Oh dear. Not a good end to the day in the first video. Second, hmmm not for this little black duck.

The first video goes to show why you never buy a second hand 4x4 with NO service books at all! :lol:

Good to emphasise that this is tapping the edge with a hammer or rock and not hitting the middle of the pane In many cases you can bash the buggery out of a car window with a hammer and not have it shatter. There's a reason the "life hammers" have a sharp point. If none of the above are handy, the car keys are always worth remembering. Clench them tightly with the longest/sharpest key out the bottom of your fist and then smack the window as hard as possible.

Here's another vid like the second:

I reckon the flex ramp one is awesome, not something I would try though!

Not criticising but any 4wd stock standard should be able to do that. No issues with traction and the rails will stop you from going off side.

This one however, not so sure about. My brain tells me with decent tyres it's no issue, but I'm not sure if I'd have the balls for it. Haha: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZrhuSE_ivA
