Mercedes G-Class Becomes Icebreaker

You're in a Mercedes G-Class, you're off the road and you notice a puddle that has the tendency to become a small lake ahead of you. On top of all that, the mud you're driving on becomes ice over the water. So, what do you do? Do you turn around? Of course not!
The adjacent video demonstrates how a G-Class with string protection (including underbody metal plates) can turn into a perfect icebreaker. The footage was shot somewhere in Warshaw, Poland and also teaches you that, regardless of the machinery that lies under you, you can't just plow into the ice -you have to do a little bit of planning.

We're inviting you to hit "play" and enjoy the delicious 5 minutes and 23 seconds of the clip.
