Dune Bashing! (Part 2)

Some more adventurous fun! Hope you liked the previous videos, coz here are some more! This Friday was great! Excellent weather in Umm al quwain. It rained heavily for some time that day in those areas and the wind was cool and minty fresh! Even at 2pm in the afternoon! It was cloudy most of the time. There were a lot more cars and thrill seekers trying their daredevil stunts! One guy even tried to go up the dune in reverse gear in his 4WD. After 5 tries he eventually made it!! Enjoy...


On the camel trek...


We've come so far, now where do we go?



Get out of our way! These camels think the desert belongs to them! Ha! :P



It's a long dusty road to the dune and everyone is speeding on this track!



Bumpy ride to the top of this one!



Dune buggies... up close and personal!

Thanks again!

Are you afraid of crashing into another vehicle descending while you're climbing?

@qatar.. have u been on desert safaris in qatar?

@tom.. On big dunes cars always climb up from one side and then come down from another. There are so many cars/bikes challenging each other that it would be a disaster if they came back down on the same track they went up!! In case you do decide to come back down the same way, you have to make sure no one is coming up in front of you.
The bikers are the most dangerous, they don't give a damn which way they go! We came close to hitting one guy on 2 occasions!

Don't mess with a camel I tell you. I love the way they just got up and kept looking at you like "you want a piece of me?"
