Done that on my first bog.
My more experienced 'mate' said "Get as much speed up as you can". As an eager 17 year old I gave me DT125MX all she had, in a haze of blue smoke I managed the powerband in second gear.
The next few moments were a bit confusing as:
a) I didn't know where the bike was.
b) It felt like I was upside down.
c) It was dark.
When I sat up, shook the moss out me lid, I saw the bike sunk upto the mudguard and my 'ex-mate' laughing his nuts off like he'd just seen someone fly ten foot through the air and bury tha sel heed fist.
I did learn a valuable off roading lesson......
If someone with a big grin sez "You go first" immediately punch them in the face, twice.
