Thanks for that Tony, I love that sort of thing.
A good read in short. I hadn't heard of him. The Hard cover book is still readily available which is a surprise in itself and I'm sure it would be a terrific read. Michael

Are you making fun of my thread about gazetted roads? LOL
Gazetted road or not, hire vehicles need to be kept out of salt water so I won't be trying to duplicate their feat. :)

I can't believe how truly professional those Darwinians were!
Not a strip of duct tape to be seen anywhere!
Maybe they did use a lot of Silastic?? LOL
I'm surprised Toyota didn't gain major exposure on the stunt, for advertising purposes!
This is the first I've ever heard of the exercise. However, I was somewhat "under the pump" in 1983, and spending a lot of time in remote areas, digging myself out of a massive hole, caused by the 1980-82 drought, recession, and 23% to 30% interest rates!
Cheers, Ron.
