How could old cars go where modern SUVs can't?

Talk about watching a short vid and being shocked!  How could this old car with primitive suspension, a weak motor and no amenities go where modern SUVs can't?

Let's take it a step further.  I'd bet that many modern military vehicles would end up bogged down across some of that terrain!

We know a few parts of the secret sauce.  They were light as hell.  We can assume that the drivers in this era had a certain "devil may care" attitude and would gun the engine (as weak as it was) thru certain obstacles.

But the rest?

It still comes down on the side of "how the hell is it making it"!

Anyone have a clue?  I mean a solid idea and not pulling stuff out their nether regions.
