English mathematician Newton had put forth his law on universal gravitation saying that whatever goes up has to come down in 1687. And since then everybody has been bound by this theory that changed the face of science. But, check out this extreme off-roading video where one guy tries to defy Newton’s Law!

In this video, you can see how a man tries to pull his awesome truck to the tip of the sand dune, but on the verge of success he fails. Then with his pure presence of mind he escapes his deadly fate and recovers from such an acute situation. Bravo!

This is a must watch car video for every car enthusiast. It’s just awesome and will leave you spell-bound.
