He was spotted perfectly for a toy pickup.

Reminds me of a spotter at the waterfall in Disney Oilburner once had.

That is NOT the escalator, that's Hell's Gate. The Escalator is much narrower and more difficult.

If you say so...

I was on the Escalator in Moab a couple of weeks ago - the footage looked like the same place.:)

"Escalator" is on the same trail, but is closer to "Tip Over Challenge" (or whatever its name is.) This obstacle is "Hells Gate", and it is closer to the "Lookout". I would agree that "Ecalator" is a much tougher obstacle.

Nice pic but ? do you think the spotter is doing any good doesnt look like the driver could see him and the guy in plad trying to get
a first hand bug on winshield view if something were to go wrong
I dont no the situation or the people involved but it just looks a little to casual.

Mat went up real quick there....and the spotter yelled to back off....which Matt did....turned right and it came right down.....nice pose though!
