Just what in the heck is going on here:

Let's see if hotlinking the picture works:

Fill my eyes, with that double vision.

That's weird even by 'our' standards

And here I thought it was going to be a picture of an H1 Hummer

You'd have to worry about high centering in an additional dimension with that thing.

This absolutely belongs in that "can doesn't mean should" category of stuff that I wonder where the resources come from to bring to reality. Of all the things one could build for that kind of time and effort, that's what they did?

Looks like some camber issues.
The video shows it to be a short wheelbase (2door) version which then makes it appear to be wider than it is long.

All in all, seems useless to me.

it begs the question.. "why?"

And the "why not" is because "it's useless, no fun, and hideous."

That would really be "whyyhw" right?

I think 1 1/2 would've been kinda cool.

Lots of questions racing through my brain. How do you actually drive it anywhere? Most roads aren't 8 lanes wide. Parking it would be problematic. From a fabrication standpoint, the work looks very well done.

What do you DO with it? I don't even see how you could transport it to a show or anything?

Put it on the back of a truck and transport it on its side?

Construction equipment that's more than a lane wide is disassembled.

I'm sure it's a jeep thing. You wouldn't understand.

Reminds me of Red Green's Hummer!

Red Green builds a Hummer

The reason Broncos and similar are useless downunder is their width when offroad, these Jeep just became useless IMHO

I work for the company that assembles the J/K body-in-white in Toledo...

Jeeps are my pay-check, and I still don't understand this.
