I better own up really, the car is mine
and being rescued from quite possibly the slowest accident to ever happen. It wasn't me who took the video or put it on youtube, I'm the one driving it with the weird camouflage cap.

A small piece of trim came off and heavy damage to my pride. Everything else was fine and it drive ok after that.
Now bear in mind it was actually 9pm the previous night when it went in there so I couldn't see a thing and the nearest place that resembled civilisation was about 5 miles away, it was rescued the morning after.
I was trying to reverse back down that track when I felt the rear O/S corner of the car start to dip suddenly, so I put it on full lock to bring it out, which was when the front end started to slide in, closely followed by the rest of the car, luckily I wasn't even going at walking pace.

4-wheel drive didn't stand a chance, it doesn't look as bad from that angle but this picture was taken from the other side of the car.

You can see now, that with 2 wheels in a stream and the other 2 wheels barely touching the ground wont get it out, not even with the diff-lock. It was only resting on the towbar at the back.
