MEET ‘Swamp Thing’ - the 11.6ft tall battered beast and the UK’s most well known monster truck! From falling in love with monster trucks when he was just eight years old, proud owner Tony, had ‘Swamp Thing’ shipped in from the US, 20 years later. With almost £250,000 and being stripped down completely, Tony’s work of art revs more than 2,000hp and can go from 0 to 60 in just four seconds. Now the stunt-performing machine can not only power over cars, but even flies over caravans and charges its way through water. Though it leaves him with a lack of fillings in his teeth, Tony’s passion is undeterred, as the highest ‘Swamp Thing’ has jumped is 42ft in the air at the yearly ‘UK Monster Truck Nationals.’
