He’s driving a Series 70 (commercial/military) Land Cruiser, armored. It isn’t going to be bothered in the least by three or four bodies and it is tall enough that it isn’t likely to collect one on the windshield.

Donut Operator on YouTube has a good video covering this incident complete with after action pictures.

I liked the link, thanks.
Many interesting comments.

I’ve had friends ask if saw the shooter in the side window, now I have!

—”Series 70 Land Cruiser”

A quick search shows the payload of 780Kg/1700lb- 1220Kg/2700lb.

More than a few ways to protect a vehicle, all of them heavy to extremely heavy.

Notice the lack of deflection when he hits the white truck?
This beast drives like the Queen Mary.

At the end of this video, it is clear he is hung up on top of something?

Also does not appear to have all that much ground clearance, see photos after video in the link.

“The Single-Cab chassis, with a payload of about 1220kg (driver, passengers, and tray included), can carry the
most....The 76 Wagon, with a payload of 780kg (driver and passengers included) can carry the least.”

Guessing that the Land Cruiser is well over the operating weightlimit, yes they upgrade the suspension.
