Ranger Rovers dominate off road. Unfortunately they're also very luxurious and expensive so not many people take em off road.

Kinda weird that the wheels slipped/skidded on the way down but i didn't see any wheel slipping on the way up

I'd say they're equally inclined in both fields (no pun intended)

When climbing a hill I'm not so sure I agree, sorta like when you're going uphill it's more likely to spin your tires than going downhill or flat surface
although at such extreme circumstances I wouldn't know

i pull off something similiar in my old freelander before. granted its no range rover and the hill wasn't as steep but it was pretty close, i did a 4 point turn on the near 70 degree hill. So satisfying, if i was driving any other cars i've own or own now i would need to be tow out.

Very impressive. Going down, it looks like the rear tires are almost off ground.

That's bloody intense for what looks to be a stock vehicle.

must've been some pretty DAMN good tires
and the hill surface was probably perfect for maximum friction
wonder if theres a little bit of camera tilt to exaggerate the awesomeness of it tho
