BIGFOOT #5 Jim Kramer Stunts - Sled Pull - Jan. 1987 - BIGFOOT 4x4, Inc.
Переглядів 4,251,195
5 років томуLegendary BIGFOOT driver Jim Kramer has done just about everything imaginable with monster trucks, but one of his most unique stunts was to do the "tire walk" on the massive BIGFOOT #5! Jim would start in the cab, let the truck idle in gear, get out, drop to the ground, ride the tire back up to the top, walk around the entire body and then get back in the cab and drive away. As icing on the cake, Jim did a sled pull around almost the entire inside of the old Seattle Kingdome.

Saw this truck in person when I was a little kid in the early 90's, walked under it. I think a shorter dude could walk under the differentials without hitting his head, the sheer scale of this truck was epic. It was twice as tall as the other monster trucks, I remember the driver doing the same "ghost riding" stunt later in the show as well.

Those wheels really seem more of a novelty than anything. Still cool to watch. Those old Ford bodies with that metallic deep blue sure are something else.

Bigfoot 5 was always one of my favorites because of those enormous tires. Glad I was a kid in the 80's and got to grow up watching the genesis of monster truck racing.

Me too I use to go to a monster truck show every year at the Pontiac Silverdome in Detroit and there was a monster truck show in Ontario called twin creeks they would have monster trucks on year and tractor pulls the next year and use to go to them every year as a kid I saw so many cool things as a kid in the 80's. I wish I could go back and do it all again.

I remember seeing the OG Bigfoot at a show as a kid back in the early 80's and thought it was the coolest truck ever then they built Bigfoot 5 and that was crazy it made the OG Bigfoot look like a regular truck. I loved it back then because they were real truck bodies on those trucks unlike today when they are fiberglass or carbon fiber bodies around a steel cage and chassis

There’s a video on YT that has Bob Chandler on it. He goes through the entire BF fleet and talks about each of them. If I remember right, this truck was one of the last BF’s to feature a modified factory truck frame. I think 6 was the first one to feature the custom built, tube chassis design. Could be wrong though, just telling it as I remember it.
