Don't think this thing is quite big enough.

That thing is a rollover waiting to happen....  It's so big, it would NEVER go through the trails around here!

Doesn't look like much of a Hummer is actually there.  Hood and tailgate?  I'm glad it's a Oneoffcustomfab...  Looks dangerous to drive faster then a crawl.  Has no shocks to control the bound and rebound.

it's completely stupid, what's the point of having an air-ride if you over-inflate the bags, or maybe it is b/c he has no shocks and would be bouncing out of control otherwise.

The only thing I can think if is it's used as a hunting buggy but there are much better ways to build it.

Or a Swamp buggy for FL, but also better ways to do it!
