Good reminder I need to file down my auto shifter to be able to slam it in reverse now that I'm clutch less.

That's the biggest plus of a manual. I can reflexively hit the clutch pretty fast and have done so in this situation several times.

You can bop it into neutral without hitting a button right?

I see you have your hard top on...that could have been bad!

Exhibit A - me doing same thing on Poughkeepsie gulch outside of Ouray. Rear passenger on a hole with locker engaged, open front axle, passenger front climbing faster than driver.

Exhibit B - my buddy Alex doing literally the exact same thing in the exact same spot 2 years later. He has a Detroit in the rear and a Truetrac in front.

If you catch the right instant in the video, his passenger front hopped up in the air for a bit as well.
His second attempt took a line a little bit to the right so he straddled the tire-grabbing hole and the front driver didn't lift.
Me, again, with Torq auto locker in front and having completely forgotten to engage my rear E-locker, taking a line similar to Alex's second attempt, and not even coming close to lifting. I'm sure 10" of extra wheelbase didn't hurt, either.
