While the Alaska earthquake devastated some roads in the area as the quake broke them apart, some drivers decided to push their vehicles to the limit.
When faced with a highway that was jagged and uneven, one man decide to take to his Jeep and see if he could make it across.
'My husband drove his CJ7 Jeep across a sinkhole near our house after a 7.0 magnitude earthquake this morning,' wrote Sierra Callahan online.

Despite cries of 'Don't do it!' the driver managed to power his Jeep across the broken road to the other side much to a surprise
The car took it slowly to begin with as he sized up what was ahead of him.
The driver briefly opened the door while onlookers screamed 'don't do it'.
Bu the driver took it slow as he went down the highway. The car gently went down the jagged pieces of tarmac and made it across without any problems.
There were a few delicate turns before the car finally made it to the other side.

Back-to-back earthquakes measuring 7.0 and 5.7 shattered highways and rocked buildings Friday in Anchorage and the surrounding area, sending people running into the streets and briefly triggering a tsunami warning too
Meanwhile, the Alaska Department of Transportation has all of its inspectors in the Anchorage area Saturday to conduct bridge inspections following the 7.0 earthquake that caused highway damage mostly north of the city.
Officials say there are 40 sites in the area with some type of damage, and eight of those are considered major.
The major damage is mostly to highways or ramps getting on or off the Glenn Highway north of Anchorage. There's also damage at the interchange of the Glenn and Parks highways.
Rock falls exacerbated by hundreds of aftershocks are causing some problems on the Seward Highway south of Anchorage.
Officials say that the aftershocks continue to contribute to settling and additional cracking.

Strong aftershocks continued Saturday around Anchorage, jolting people awake and pummeling already frayed nerves.
The U.S. Geological Survey says there have been 545 aftershocks, including a 5.7 magnitude shaker that followed Friday's big quake almost immediately.
Geophysicist Paul Caruso says 11 aftershocks have had magnitudes of 4.5 or greater. He says there should be fewer and weaker aftershocks in the coming days, but officials can't say for sure when they will stop.
Friday's quake was centered about 7 miles north of Anchorage, Alaska's largest city, with a population of about 300,000. There have been no reports of deaths or serious injuries.

People ran from their offices and into the streets or took cover under desks as the ground shook for about 30 seconds.
Anchorage Police Chief Justin Doll says parts of Glenn Highway, a scenic route that runs northeast of the city, had 'completely disappeared.'
President Donald Trump late Friday declared an emergency for the earthquake, which allowed the Federal Emergency Management Agency to coordinate disaster relief efforts.
The quakes on Friday broke store windows, opened cracks in a two-story building downtown, disrupted electrical service and disabled traffic lights, snarling traffic.

‘My husband...
It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
