+100 degrees, no breeze, barely any shade, lots of sand, trees that could kill a man? I’m ok sitting in my recliner living vicariously through Matt and his team. Great video, thoroughly enjoyed.

Meh they've got like 20% humidity or something at the most. It's dangerous and you have to stay hydrated, but it's no big deal. Where I am currently we just had a day that was 101, 59% relative humidity. "Real feel" was at 119. Out fixing fence in that crap is no bueno..

Please be more careful out there. Heat will kill 🔥

[@larrybe2900]

@@lanesworld4000 Hydration is the basic key. Even on a cool day the body expends water. Add heat and it is multiplied quite a bit and then with exertion it happens faster. Respect the body and what it needs to function. After working in 130+ degrees on a daily basis I've learned the body to a point acclimates but does not hold up without constant hydration. If one gets to the point of nausea it is gone long enough if not too long..Delirium is not where you want to be as that is the neighbor to death.

It is a good thing that Matt is such a good teacher, He is beginning to see that he is not as young as he once was. I LOVED how quick he was to change plans and sent the youngster up that hill after the winch line. Sign of a great commander right there. Make the best use of the resources at hand. :D Can you imagine if he had NOT been wearing that racing harness? He could have been thrown right into that thorn tree. YEOUCH! This onw truly went well. Good to see Ed riding along, and that Rudy was able to come help. :D You guys are truly awesome. God Bless you all.

Indeed, and when Matt and Paul of Fab Rats fame collab, they often show their perspectives, sometimes on the same day and we see things from one that you may not see on the other and some of that is one will get a piece of footage that the other didn't.

Omg one of my favorite episodes of all time. I even got to see lizzy at the very end. It was matt in the banana wirh ed for the weather and jamie was there and even the dog it was nice to see keeter only if trevor was there but skeeter did a trevor at the end falling in the sand, classic. It was even a call for a razor and you are in the bananana but now its all nice so this is an amazing video and even better rudy came to the rescue omg in love woth you all. Best video ever total nastalgia And you even extracted the razor cleverly and even flipped it geniusly lol Great way to start the day

[@JaronLindow]

The thorn tree in question is mesquite. Some fresh cuttings from one of those on the coals of your BBQ add a sweet flavor to the meat.

[@PatrickHenryLibertyorDeath]

Currently building an 84 CJ7. The lesson Matt has taught me is that there will always be some part that fails when you upgrade and you will continue to chase it. When you upgrade that failure the next weak spot will get yah. Think I will leave mine relatively stock.

[@NoWr2Run]

SMART MAN & U R EXACTLY RIGHT.

[@REDMAN298]

If you beat it like Matt does ya gotta pay the dues.

[@NBSV1]

Depends on what you’re doing with it. Keeping it stock works fine if you’re just driving on the road and a little light off roading. Simple things like bigger tires can make it way better off road, but that puts more stress on the drivetrain, steering, and suspension. At that point the stock stuff won’t hold up. At the end of the day you need to have an idea of what you expect the vehicle to do and work towards that goal. It’ll likely be broken parts no matter what.

[@chazfaz3595]

Interesting conclusion. So if you have all (weak) stock parts and you attempt to put them through this level of abuse, you will not be "chasing it"? Chasing parts is the destiny of those who are inexperienced and don't take advantage of the wealth of experiece out there. A stock rig won't be able to handle much. That's a key lesson. I don't think Matt is chasing anything anymore. It seems apparent that he now knows exactly where the weak links are, and is slowly working them out. What I think I learned is to either learn from his experience & duplicate his formula, or limit the abuse to the level your fab skills and vehicle can handle.
