Because it's extreme, and because they can lol. Mostly on Nissan Patrols and Toyota Land Cruisers.

People think it's a very common thing to see in the UAE, it's not, well atleast not in Dubai. Though Ive seen one infront of my house haha.

They do this because they are crazy. am surprised at how long the driver held it . I thought it would have lasted maybe 5-10 seconds. That dude was insane

He held that for a while. I would freak out if I were one of the oncoming drivers.

it's funny, when i get a new car/truck....getting it up on 2 wheels is definitely not the 1st thing i think about doing with it...
those guys are insane. and i also agree with Mister Two... public roads with other cars and turns is crazier than a closed course
