Box Truck Almost FLIPS Over From Shifted Load!
Box Truck Almost FLIPS Over From Shifted Load! Imagine how much less content I would have if load shifts did not happen? They keep us BUSY! Whether they are overloaded, improperly strapped or caused by unsafe driving, seems like we are correcting these multiple times per week. My opinion is that most loads are not properly secured inside of these trucks.
If you have ever stepped inside a trailer or box truck, you'll notice most of them have an almost glossy like floor. When you put a wooden or plastic pallet on it, they can easily move around while in transit. That's why you use straps, wood or bags to brace these pallets to keep them from sliding. These drivers will take a corner too fast and if they aren't properly secured, that load will go to the side it's leaning on.
Unfortunately this can result in a huge rollover accident. If they are lucky like in this video, it's an easy fix. Sometimes a rotator is needed, others we can do it with just a forklift. In this case, Alex used Big Flipper, our 75ton rotator, to assist. Imagine if Alex didn't have the rotator physically holding up the leaning side. Now imagine using the electric pallet jack here to re-work the load. It's already leaning bad, and now you have all this movement and weight on the leaning side. That is exactly how you can tip it over.
The guys made very short work of this job, and got the driver fixed and on his way in no time. Remember folks, secure your loads!! What did you guys think of this load shift job?

FORE! Semi Driver Gets Stuck on Golf Course

FORE! Semi Driver Gets Stuck on Golf Course. Talk about a hole in one. This driver got himself stuck at a fancy club golf course, so we dispatched Alex in our 75ton rotator to handle the job. Navigating to this spot was not too bad, but the pressure was on as the course staff was trying to rush this guy out. We understand, as this is a distraction to the golfers, but the driver did not make thi...

MESSY Dump-Trailer Rolled Over at the Landfill. Can you smell this video? Poor Alex, handling this call surrounded by garbage. We received this call from a customer to assist in a rollover at the local landfill, and Alex was dispatched in our 75ton rotator, Big Flipper. These end dump trailers are always a pain for a few reasons. One, the piston. They can bend, tweak, leak, etc. You have to com...
Insane Tractor-Trailer Rollover UNDER a Bridge!

Insane Tractor-Trailer Rollover UNDER a Bridge! It's been a good while since we had such an incredibly difficult job like this. We do tons and tons of winchouts, heavy lifts and "basic" rollovers that we make look like childs play. But this job humbled us and reminded us that you can't use brute strength to complete every job. For starters, it was under a bridge. Not just partially, but both tr...

EXTREME offroad recovery for crashed Suzuki. First of all, when do you ever see a Suzuki vehicle on the road in the US anymore? This poor fella went full send over our famous spot in Angeles Forest Highway. Distance was about 250', all gas no breaks. Alex was dispatched in our 75ton rotator, Big Flipper. Vicente joined in our flatbed to transport the car after. Alex has taken over the car fishi...
Dump Truck Stuck in Muddy Disaster!

Dump Truck Stuck in Muddy Disaster! Alex is back with another "easy" winch job for Big Flipper, our 75ton rotator. Just as some recent jobs, Alex decided to use the equalizing sling method using our famous Bailey's equalizing sling and a 15ton snatch block. The deep mud was no match for the brute strength of Big Flipper. This method is by far the best method for these jobs. A lot of people ask ...

Lifting 64,000lbs at the airport (full 360 8k)!

Lifting 64,000lbs at the airport (full 360 8k)! It's been a while since I did a full 360 video, but with the X4 I'm hoping that it will look much better than we I had the GoPro MAX. The job was a standard cargo loader lift, something we do almost every week. I figured the bright environment would be a good test for the Insta360 X4, and if you guys like it I can continue to do more. I did this j...

How I charged $15,000 to move these rocks (part 2) The nail biting conclusion to part 1: czcams.com/video/oIDUrcTtMYE/video.html I threw in an office monologue that goes over a ton of questions you might ask here, such as how much did the job cost, why they wanted the rocks moved and how Alex got Big Flipper in that crazy spot. 2 hours and 40 min I feel is wayyy too long for a single CZcams vid...

How I charged $15,000 to move these rocks (part 1). Safe to say you guys watching my videos have been spoiled this year with awesome content. I'm not sure if it's the universe challenging us, or our reach just being more known and getting more calls. But it seems every month we outdo ourselves in terms of rotator work with some crazy custom jobs. This one, I feel, takes the cake. We were recomm...
Heavy duty winch out at a Naval Base

Heavy duty winch out at a Naval Base. Whoa, something that isn't flipped over? Yes, we do basic winch outs too. This job was at the naval base in Los Alimitos, and Alex was already in the area from a previous job so we dispatched him the call in Big Flipper, our 75ton rotator. The job could not have been easier for Alex, as you'll see in the video. He utilized an equalizing sling for the rear, ...

Thieves steal, strip and EXPLODE a dump truck! This isn't the first video where we recovery something stripped and burned by thieves and it will not be the last. Stealing cars, trucks even chassis are so common in Los Angeles. A combination of our huge population and high crime areas don't help. Regardless, we are always up to the task no matter where these vehicles end up and how badly damaged...

The forklift driver was attempting to stack the container. This kinda baffles me. I've been in ports nationwide & I've never seen 2 containers stacked on each other while both are attached to a chassis.
Junk aluminum trailer, dude should have had the weight in the middle of it rater than all the weight on that junk tongue.
Buy steel trailers if you want to do heavy haul. You dont see multiaxle trailers built out of Aluminum
Yes that was a lot of money Peace out
You all do wonderfully work . Looks like containers are loaded improper top heavy LoL that's way there always on there side
The spring was broke do he loaded it to the other side but moved too much
This guy must’ve gotten his CDL from a Cracker Jack box he has to be one of the dumbest drivers I’ve ever seen.
Thank you for the share!
they need to make bigger ramps for trucks like that , kinda dont see how he couldve avoided it anymore then he tried
AI assistants are becoming so lifelike! It's almost eerie! 😮🗣
Great job fellows
Como um motorista consegue fazer uma merda desse tamanho?
Might have been better to unhook truck and lift trailer at the front and roll it back ..
Jesus. That's as much as my semi weighs fully loaded.

Red t-shirt guy hasn't got a clue whats he doing😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It appears that there are plenty of "Steering Wheel Attendants" in the States as well. Piss poor drivers like this are giving the transport industry worldwide a big pain in the ass.
Backing up that second trailer was impressive
nop
They could have put pallets on either side of the radiators stop it from moving
Damn. I would hate it if I was having a terrible day because of my own stupidity then somebody preserved it on video for all time and broadcasted it to 100k people.
As a 45 year truck mechanic finding trucks driving around with broken springs is common since it does not get inspected very often.
Looks like like his days of driving like an idiot are over for a while. Be a while before they let that idiot gets a job driving 😂Back to work at McDonalds for you 😂

Are we sure the semi didnt rearend another vehicle then the driver got out then it was rearended by the flatbed tow truck
Can’t fix dumb
Now I wonder if they were actually his rocks to move?? It does seem he has been a bit greedy and basically grabbed all the rocks in that immediate area and had them just to protect his property 🫡
That’s very cool
So why not bring in a crane and lift it up , instead of dragging it and breaking more parts and needing a paint job .
Why not have a brain before commenting? Must hurt to be so dumb
@@PepesTowingService watch the smart ones on utube , they bring in a crane , lift up , nobody’s dragging my expensive machine .. use common sense.
@Ricken2022 watch the video. I go over that idiot. A crane wouldn't be possible. A crane would take HOURS just to set up. Then require permits to even get to this tiny residential area. Good luck doing that in the richest part of Los Angeles. But ya, keep talking buddy.
Guy is in the comments whining about how his trailer is supposedly rated at "40+ tons" but doesn't understand that they probably didnt rate it with the weight being all the way forward past the axles
You guys and ladys are champs
Definitely a young mans job. Good work...................Jay
Didn't you need to remove the driveshaft?
You are a really skilled person

what i wanna know is why this guy is driving trucks with a half a million subs and a "music" career in whatever country hes from
🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 awesome!
Hope the homeless come get the pallets before Johnny Law stops by to give you $500 fine !
have you seen downtown California ?
That last rock is in solid, should have been left where it is as a wave break. Better to pick a rock that is stacked on another, easier to rig, and drop it in the spot. Lived on the coast, saw a lot of power in those waves. Whatever... Alex did what he was asked to do, but knew how to do it. 👍
hahah total shitshow on this one
Good job. Looks good

there is to much traffic. come back later so its "safer"... cool... cool... now that we have morning rush hour traffic. im sure it was SO MUCH safer. i mean there is a REASON why road construction is done at night.. and not IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY. and it couldn't be because of safety or anything im sure.. who ever that sergeant was.. all i can say is.. he is dumb.
In Spanish…. We have a special saying for people like that…….Que Burro!
Well done fellas.👍👍
Great job, Pepes towing and to Sanders towing also for their help .
The people who pay for this bullshit deserve all the negative bullshit with it
You're famous everybody wants to take a selfie with you... "YEAH I KNOW" 😂
Is it possible this drive already knew the leaf spring on the driver side was broken and so compensated by placing the load on the passenger side hoping to be able to operate the truck still? He could practice a bit more on that pallet mover too. That was entertaining!
