Only WD did it in the actual ocean.

[@patrickmayo1509]

The original BIGFOOT built in the 1970's was driven in a river somewhere near it's home. It was on TV,when they put it in the water.

[@tylertyj2310]

Footage of it was in whistlendeisles first water video

[@Courtney27Gray]

SaW it on Lake of the Ozarks in 1983

[@blown503]

Jon Breen used to do this too in Mad Dog monster truck. I seen him pull out of the Ohio River and drain the water out of the diffs.

[@bigvideoenergy]

Everyone under the age of 15 needs to realise it was done before whistlin was born. RELAX.

[@silv3rcoyot3]

Ive did research Grave digger done it but not this deep like the truck wasnt floating but someone did do it before whistling desil black stallion and another monster truck did it on sept 7, 2020 and whistling desil followed 2 months after on nov 16, 2020

Did BIGFOOT try it about the same time?

I wonder if the grease from the drive line and gear boxes came out in the lake water when they did this. I mean it's not like a boat with seals that are made to keep that kinda shit out of the water. But yeah it made a video and they gotta pitch some dog food so good deal.

[@NVMDSTEvil]

unless its already on the outside then no, not much if anything at all will get out. Most likely the water will intrude into the axle or transfer case and contaminate the oil though.

[@thelonewrangler1008]

There's a thing called a grease box on many boats that keeps the water from coming in around the propshaft. Go cry to Gretta

If you added some fenders that redircted the upward flow around the tires to a downward/rearwaed directionn, you would add both life and forward speed. I am retired and live in Nevada near Tahoe. I would be happy to come out and help your guys fabracate some.

[@davidgriffin79]

0:44 It's all down to the volume of water your displacing. If the mass of water that would fit inside those tyres is more than the combined mass of the vehicle, then the vehicle will float; this is because the gravitational force on the same unit volume of water that the vehicle is trying to displace, is greater than that acting on the vehicle. Therefore, the net force on the vehicle is less and the differences in force on the water and vehicle gives a negative ΔF; this is known as buoyancy and is how ships stay afloat, submarines control their depth and hot air balloons fly (hot air is less dense than cool air, therefore has less mass per unit volume).

[@patthornton1212]

I noticed tires directional al-tho not very much lugs left are on the correct way to push mud out= I would be curious if larger lugs running backwards to pull water in would make it raise up a little. I had directional ground hogs = keep on digging the intended way but you were not backing out of mud as they filled themself and were like slicks.

[@kerryscott3287]

Wheels only work for flotation AND propulsion if the tires are only partially submerged. You either have to skip across the water or have at least 25% of the tires not submerged. Need some much lighter rims for those floater tires and a much lighter weight Bro Dozer

Remember those monster truck toys from the 80's you could attach animal clawed feet to the wheels for traction? I think they were called wild things or something like that. It would be cool to use that sort of idea for a life-size version in water. Perhaps some device that locks around the tires that's made of tire rubber acting like paddles. Idk just a thought!
