That's really crazy, must be like 7-800lbs? Impressive for sure.

I am unsure. I try to accurately detail stuff like that. I believe the standard Yaris is around 2300lb. I did it under the engine block to have the most weight for the test. It held a good amount of weight from the left side wheel but there was still some tire to concrete contact so I know there was some weight on that tire. I think 800-1k is likely what was placed on the TBNR but I will need to find a scale to determine that.

And you'd NEVER catch me crawling under any Car held up like that!
I lost a good friend who went under a car with a standard scissor jack.

Not saying that Bipod is weak just nowhere near safe for that job!

Couldn't agree more. At no point did I ever go under the car. Doing so could cause severe injury or death (hence the warning in the video). In fact, I never go under a car even with any scissor jacks (or any jacks for that matter) because I have known someone that had a bad accident. Only time to go under a car is if it is a mechanic's hydraulic lift.

No way, really ? You thought the video was about using bipods for support of vehicles ? Lol , too funny... great video Tristan, I knew you were demonstrating the strength 💪 of the bipod, not possible uses....

I actually had to delete it and reupload it yesterday because I had to put a spelled out warning in it.


I now have to think of some other stress tests, other than a car...
