A lot of people living in India have a lot of free time on their hands. As a result, they come up with some very crazy ideas. Recently, one such crazy idea was shared online in the form of a video. The main idea was that a particular Mahindra Scorpio-N owner wanted to see if his SUV could be stopped by 15 men or not. Due to this, a series of tug-of-war competitions between 15 men and the mighty Mahindra Scorpio-N was organised. The results, you may ask? Well, you can see them for yourself.

Mahindra Scorpio-N vs 15 Men in a Tug of War

The video of the Mahindra Scorpio-N vs 15 men battling in a tug of war was shared on Instagram by Rahul RaoSaheb on his page. In the first round, the Mahindra Scorpio-N was seen tied with a thick rope at the rear. As for the rivals of this SUV, there were 15 men standing on muddy ground, ready to stop the SUV. For the first round, the driver put the SUV in 4X2 mode, and it can be seen that the men were able to stop the Scorpio-N.

Following the success of the first round, the competition was made a little more intense. For this, the driver of the Scorpio-N activated the 4X4 mode while the vehicle was still on the muddy ground. This time, due to the activation of 4X4 mode, the Scorpio-N was easily able to pull away, and we can note that all 15 men were dragged by the SUV.

Round 3

For round three, the cameraman suggested that the Scorpio-N should now be on the cemented footpath, while all 15 men would remain on the muddy ground. As a result, they completed the setup, and then the third round of tug of war commenced. We can note that this time as well, the Scorpio-N was easily able to pull these men away and became the winner.

Round 4

After conceding defeat for the second time in three rounds, the Scorpio-N’s 4X2 mode was activated while it was still on the footpath, and the men were in the muddy ground. This time, the men were prepared, and when the Scorpio-N driver pushed the accelerator, he was not able to drive it ahead. We can even note that the SUV’s rear wheels were spinning in the same spot, which meant that this round was won by the men.
