  • @calvinh.8882
    @calvinh.8882 Před rokem +5

    I think someone is having an issue with deception. He needs to figure out the width of his vehicle. Just staying as far to the high side as he can get would have prevented him from rolling it and the other sliding-off-the-edge incident he had. lol.
    My advice to everyone driving trails you don't know very well is to get out and take a look when you come across a narrow area. Just pull up to it and get out and walk past it and look back at your tire width to see where you need to place your tires. And when it's a sandy area like that, make sure your tires are as far away from the edge as you can possibly get them even if you have to run over some rocks or brush, and if the edge is really soft and you can't get far enough from it, then turn around because the edge can/will collapse as it looks like it did here. Glad he and his dog weren't hurt.

    A tip from a guy that spent 20yr's on Puget Sound working with Danforth anchors. A 100lb anchor is good enough to hold a 100ft barge in 4ft swells with a real flat draw in 40knot wind. Completely bury the anchor in the sand or dirt, get the flutes buried completely. Leave the chain out or lock it in some boulders, hook a short loop choker to a block your looking at close to10 tons of hold. There is zero you will be able rescue of that weight. with your rigs to loose it. That anchor will fit in the back, or use 2 smaller ones in v shaped set. This is for a tail hold or a side pull block. Good luck on your adventures in recovery

    Wow, that was a crazy recovery. Eric did an awesome job. When he rescued me a few months back I was in a bad spot and it took a few different angles to get me out without hitting the rocks but he did great!

    Glad to see the rescuee safe and ok. To those saying he was drunk or stupid. Don't judge, that roll could've given him a major concussion. You seem fine, but it's not. Nobody knows what happened until the team got there.

    Great to see Eric there; Such a cool cucumber and it doesn't seem like much bothers him- like he's seen it all. Cracked up when he seemed amused that the owner had the presence of mind to put the Jeep in park while he was upside down.

      When they show the jeep upside-down, it is easy to imagine anyone ending up in that kind of situation. By the end of the video, it is easy to imagine how that particular person ended up in that situation.

Well done Eric and the guys -- I think the level of danger here was 11 out of 10 -- this could have become a real mess if one of the recovery vehicles slid off the road - OR if that rock came tumbling down the hill ! ! ! Def one of the most technically difficult recoveries to date ! !

      Crashing your car solo has an impact on you, I’ve been there. I bet it was a long stressful day for him and when the car was back driving he let he’s guard down just from the adrenaline dump. A roll over really messes with your brain even if your physically fine, accidents happen that’s why they’re called accidents lol
