Pretty sad.

Kind of a weird story though. I'm curious to know what happened. Especially since "no foul play" is supposedly evident.

I agree with wild horse, that's the only thing I could really think of is they had the vehicle running due to it being cold and were overcome by carbon monoxide.

This is why you don't go 4x'ing alone, have someone else at least bring their vehicle as well.

I wondered when this would surface on here. Either way, It's sad. 21 is waaaayyy too young.

well, they came up with the idea to go wheeling while at a bar at 3 in the morning. so obviously any decisions they made were of sound judgement and clear thinking.

i was thinking maybe they crashed or rolled or both.

I still do not see a Bronco II. The video starts playing immediately and it shows no vehicle at all. Just stills of the 21 year old..

It's def a B2 and the tires aren't that big...

Sad though for the families. I'm sure they bogged up and all went to sleep then didn't wake up.

I do not see that pic. I am using Chrome, and when I click the link and the page fills, the video starts immediately. No pic of that vehicle or I wouldn't have asked.
As for the accident, life is all about decisions. Make good ones. Nothing is guaranteed or promised. Natural selection does it job. I used to preach this to my students. The world works.

Reinstall your browser, or use a different browser, because it clearly shows in the video a red/white Bronco 2 looks to be first generation. Don't think I would want any transmission/transfer case parts the way it showed them dragging it out looked to still be in gear or locked up as the tires were just skidding along.
