Wanna Jump Your Truck? Think again...

http://www.gmfullsize.com/forum/showthread.php?t=83163

The guy jumped his truck, landed fine but a little damage to his truck and is now paralyzed. I read he had a body lift and the cab shifted.

Not good. Too bad his life has changed forever over a lack of better judgement.

By the way, I'm not bashing on anyone who wants to jump their truck, just posting a rather sad story. Use good judgement guys and have fun.

Yeah, I think the amount of "air" he got had a lot to do with the damage, to the truck as well as him.
