- What is it going to take to pull at 58 tonne Baobab tree? Answer - a 10 tonne 820bhp Volvo FH16, that's what. Pulling this wooden beast is just the start of my problems though as you'll see in this hilarious video.

Can't believe it's been 10 years already since this happened :)
I used to watch DaSquirrelNuts back when i was 10 or 11, I was excited for every new video back then haha. Now im 22 and just randomly remembered him and came back to watch. Good memories
i remember watching this video in 2014 on my Celeron pc and was thinking "holy shit the graphics is amazing " and now that i look into current ets2 graphic and compare it this , the game have developed really well the devs have done a great job
exactly
still haven't updated uk map :/
@@zenpy_ they must really hate the weather there

can't wait for the brexit DLC
Is SCSSoftware creating a dlc like that?!
+Gelderse TruckerNL tuurlijk niet

Yes
Just because we're leaving the European union doesn't mean that we're not in Europe also truckers will still come from europe
Why would Coca-Cola want to move a 55t Boabab tree?

Peachy Invasion So you deliver it to another, existing factory?
Tiaan De Swardt Might as well lol
im a real trucker in real life. lol. you were talking about the switches on the dashboard, those are actually the way they are, you get the standard switches and if you want to upgrade the volvo later on down the road, you can take those covers away and add switches in the spot of the "dummy" switches (the ones without the labels you were talking about on the dash)
Ahahahaha. That's the stereotype. I actually did not come from a poor family. You better show some respect. That computer your talking shit on, was on a truck at one point. The clothes you are wearing, they were on a truck. Anything and everything you posses, was brought to you on a truck at one point or another. If it was not for us doing what we do, America would have a hard time. You don't have to like us, however, you wouldn't have the amenities you have if it wasn't for us working 70 hrs a week. Owner operators are making $100,000+ a year. I'm a company driver making $75,000 a year. Not bad for being a dumb ass trucker from a broke family with little to no edumication right? Know your facts before you state facts.
There are plenty of educated people driving trucks. Sometimes it's what someone has to do. Also you can not tell someone's tone via text so you're wrong on that end. Secondly trucks do serve a big part in everyday life of individuals. Your medical supplies everything was brought to you on a truck, like I said before. The hospital you perform surgeries in, the metal and construction supplies and the laborers that built it is the reason you have a career aside from getting your education. Also quit being stuck up and acting like you are god. I don't care if you are a surgeon or the president of the USA or what ever country you are from. Everyone in my eyes is equal, whether you are homeless living on the streets and no one will look at you, or if you reign over all. The only difference between you and I is some schooling. I chose to go a different way in life than you. If I started my own company and worked my ass off I could become wealthier than you were could have imagined. That however is not my life's goal. I do not care about wealth at all. However, I'm not surprised I'm in this conversation with the likes of you because most surgeons act like they are god and everyone should kiss their ass. Just remember that there is someone out there better than you, smarter than you, as well as wealthier than you. So get off your high horse and come back down to earth.
damen grandel I am an educated truck driver as well. What bothers me is that these trucks seems to be different from American Trucks, Without the gears or even the air lines pull buttons... I can concur you can easily make 70k+ american money a year but it is an easy job. I don't like using my Business degree to rip people off, I got tired of that compare to manual labor.
***** NASA called ... they found out you were a Surgeon and they want their computer back - OLD JOKE REVIVED!
AHAHAHAHA, i guess you showed that one your self Steven. You sir have a poor attitude! Now I know what MD stands for, Medical Douche bag.
Did anyone pick up that at 18:15 Paul says, "I think I've got the right vehicle for it, a 850bhp SCANIA" 😂😂😂👍

Wow, 9 years ago I remember watching this for the first time
My life has devolved to watching 22minutes of this without even blinking...

I first read your comment as, "My wife..." :D

Adelaide has no road tax, and no toll booths.
What we have are hyper aggressive animals that attack your car, like Kangaroos. I'm not kidding. They run alongside your car, and then try to make you swerve by cutting you off. It's what they do to establish dominance amongst themselves,and a bull Kangaroo weighs a lot.
Also, some species of Goanna attack the tires and undercarriage of the car if you stay put for too long.
I live in Adelaide and I can confirm that what this man says is true
TheAussieBlue wow lol that must be fun
+Max Morgan-rohrlach Yeh I live in WA but I have been to Adelaide and yeh
That is a really bad idea. Your car is not going to come out of that looking pretty and the 'roo may jump at you if threatened, which means it goes through the windscreen and will most like kill you.

+ploperator How are you disappointed with the rift? Its a blast.
Rendon Staples the fov isn't good. Although I am planning to buy it when it comes out.
hej med dig
i had the same idea
Watching this again in 2020, refreshed old memories
44:38 That 0 mph shows the cruise control speed, that's why it says 0 :) Also u can't brake well because u didn't choose the right transmission, u should install the one with the ''r'', that's the retarder version which perfectly helps the braking and probably u also did not enable the auto exhaust brake...
dat name for da transmission doe
Got to agree Retarders are a life saver, especially going down steep hill with heavy loads i just let retarder do all the steady braking in a controlled way with exhaust brake button covered just in case extra is needed.

@@Crimson-qo4ii there's an option to translate this into english😂
Huge baobab tree in IKEA... Not as weird as a helicopter or military tank in Fedex. Also, when you were beached, you could have detached the trailer, moved a bit, and reattached the trailer. That way, the trailer moves automatically to your new position (about a metre). This can be used to bypass some obstacles.
Bisqwit wow, didn’t know you play euro truck sim. I enjoy your programming videos very much. Keep it going.
43:52 “so I’ve left a bit of a mess” REALLYYY
I keep watching this over and over again. I miss the old squirrel... Watched this when it came out still watching it today
never thought I'd laugh so much on a bloody truck simulator video XD
Same. Rewatching this after 4 years. I'm dying of laughter right now. Pure gold.
"A full tank of gas, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses"
It's "It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sun glasses..."
"Hit it!"
8:29 Shell wants to ship 21 tons of ammunition to BP.
The trouble with this game is that it makes driving trucks look easy. You wouldn't get more than a mile if you pulled your tree for real. You demonstrated that beautifully.
'Beaching' as you described it happened because you didn't plan anything. What grounded was the legs of the trailer. The game doesn't represent how to couple and uncouple. Believe me there is a lot more to it than reverse back and press a key! For one thing the legs must be raised after you couple otherwise they drag on the road!
Not using your mirrors resulted in you hitting barriers even after you had a near-miss right at the start when you referred to scraping round a corner.
Going way too fast resulted in you hitting another road user when they moved under your trailer, and then knowing what you'd done you didn't stop.
Having 70 tonnes in your hands in the real world you would end up in jail and people would die.
And for those people who think drivers are all grubby half-wits? Do you actually know any drivers? And as to why we do it? Personally I take pride in my ability to drive and maneuver a 50-ft long vehicle which bends in the middle and take it in and out of places like London, Birmingham, Glasgow, etc. in safety. You should see the idiots I see every day...
Most games make everything look easy, first person shooters make being a soldier look easy, flying simulators make being a pilot loon easy. It's the way games have to be to keep players playing them and not getting frustrated over failing
Dude, your over thinking this.
Up to a point maybe? But there should be consequences for making stupid mistakes. Like pushing cars and trucks out of the way. Maybe if only a cost in financial terms.
Incidentally flight-sims are probably one type of game which are actually more difficult than real-life since there are no motion cues. i.e. no physical sensation of movement in your inner ear. You try flying a helicopter in X-plane with the realism at 100%!!
Malcolm B true, that is also the case of this simulator though, just not as much
This was the first video of ets2 I ever watched, when i was small, this video made me fell in love with simulation games
Wow, that traffic jam while exiting the highway....I seriously haven't laughed that hard in years. Simply one of the funniest moments I have ever experienced.
The "0 mph" on your dashboard is the cruise control speed :)
I LOVE your Seventy Tonne Volvo series, really think it's one of the best "let;s play" series on youtube, it's so adventurous
I've been on crazier situation :D i got stuck on railway and got hit by a train :D
you good den>
kk
LOL
How much damage did you suffer?
Riften Guard d
D
The dashboard where it says 0 mph only tells you what speed you're going when you have cruise control on.
Euro stuck simulator
true
Same
Fully agree, great point.
this video might be 7 years old, but, given i've never actually watched from ep 01, i figured, screw it, gotta start some day and that tree is HUGE!! im suprised the truck can even move, let alone pick up speed!
26:52 "Let's try to keep some momentum...BANG" Well think the suspension is fucked 😂
I remembered watching this series! It was my first video I saw by him & at that time, he was known by his CZcams name as "DaSquirrelNuts". That's one way you can tell how devoted some fans are watching his videos. This is probably my favorite video series by him. Always have, always will be.
OMG ROFL .... The part with the round turn on the motorway, and the vehicles blocking you front and back, and the cabin bobbleheading. I can't breath from laughing for so long and hard. Thank You man, I really needed that laugh :D
16:25 ''this could go horribly wrong'' ohhhh squirrel, if only you knew xD
I laughed so much toward the end of the video. Trying to push the traffic.. and then when you head finally are able to head off "Ok, so I've left a bit of a mess on the Motorway" Epic.
The zero mph on the Volvo dash is Cruise Control speed, one of my fav features, I switched from Scania to Volvo because you can go from 440bhp to 600bhp at level 12, now at 16 my truck has a 750bhp engine, but I love the CC speed on the dash, I can always see it where in my Scania I had to select that screen, so now I can watch my MPG or my Air/Oil Pressure instead.
i just started to play this game earlier today and it almost drove me nuts. the reverse parking frustrates the heck out of me. took me almost 10 minutes just to park lol. till i realize "wait, this isn't need for speed or gta or gran turismo, this is a simulator". so yeah, i guess it's just that realistic. you'd have to get used to it just like a real truck driver trainee.
With Sterring wheel is easy

Don't worry too much about it, it's just practice. I used to skip it all the time and now i park in just about a minute. Use the top cam (key 3) and correct your turn slowly :)
+tootsie|troll
Squirrel at his best. I loved and still do these early ETS2 videos.
omfg i litterally lmao in the last 10 minutes
In real life that 70t is normal weight for a timber of tipper truck. Here in Finland we have one 104t timber truck. :D
Watched this when it came out. 3 years later, 1.65 mil views! Awesome
My man squirrel here is an absolute legend and inspiration for many sim gamers out there like me... he got me into this category of gaming, slow paced, relaxing... idk what is wrong with kids these days, spending 30hours a day on some elden wrink, lost ark, valorant 2 cent game shit
"but its always in a town that you could never get to in time" in a 800hp truck i challenge that theory.
You had me in tears with "Wood Factory" hahahahahahahahaha
Mill
Ikae selling you a raw tree is like the epitome of the "DIY" flavor they have... XD
37:00 “I’m gonna stick to the outside” *hits outside wall* well you stuck with your word sir 😂
About those transmisions marked R: A retarder is a device used to augment or replace some of the functions of primary friction-based braking systems, usually on heavy vehicles. Retarders serve to slow vehicles, or maintain a steady speed while traveling down a hill, and help prevent the vehicle from "running away" by accelerating down the hill. (So that would be pretty useful)
the speedo isn't broken thats the one that shows what your cruise control speed is
:)
thanks for +2 man ;)
Dam this is immersive,I might buy this for the simple fact it has traffic and all that, we need some racing games like this. That last part was very funny.
Buy it from Humblebundle - It's at $10 and you get 7 other games as well
mZinc They are selling euro truck simulator 1 not the second one
I got the second one not the first one.
It is immersive. I got it about a year ago because everyone referred to it as "Comfy Simulator"
mZinc got third one
i grew up with Scanias and volvo lorrys. Uk to Greece. the Volvo was what my dad last owned. the FH16 with upgraded engine. (don't ask what he done to upgrade, i don't know) just made it very powerful. it was a work horse, not for looks. i will take volvos over anything any day. my childhood was in them beauty's
Truck
I would call it that if the British language was formulated before American English
brooo, I remember that background music, jeez man, the time is going fast as hell
The graphics are gorgeus
Yes.
I guess I’m the only one here feeling nostalgic
Flicking back through the archives and found this gem of a video...things have come a long way in 4 years..lol keep it up
Why what truck sim is leading the way now? Was just about to buy ETS2, I'm way out of the loop!
This might be my favorite video on youtube. Need more weird journeys squirrel, these are priceless.
In Lithuania part of the fuel price IS the road tax so everyone pays accordingly to how much they drive/pollute the atmosphere etc
It works like that in Germany, Australia, etc
Just read the news that UK was removed from this game lol
DeViiNe MoDz i hope so, there was an article i just dont know if it was for real
I was just driven in the UK earlier ^_^
Fuck, what about my garage in Dover
It's still in the game lol.
+EnergyBass it literally says at the top "this is a work of satire"
One of the greatest ever!
You're right, Squirrel. That is a huge tree, but it is believable. Those trees rival Giant Sequoias in terms of girth of the base of the tree. But Redwoods are much taller. When SCS was working on American Truck Simulator I begged them to make Redwood country realistic, but... _They didn't._
The car that you were "giving birth to" was also a Volvo
watching this in 2019 , i will definetly like to be able to comunicate with that guy
There's a bounding box on your entire trailer, one around the tree and one around your trailer wheels. The car slipped under the tree partially and caused the trailer to rock back and forth when their collision boxes touched.
Watching this after 11pm on January 7, 2021. My country just survived an attempted coup the day before, pandemic still rages, life has been stressful to say the least... and I am laughing so hard at this video that I'm crying!!😆😂🤣 Thank you for this unexpected, but very much appreciated stress release!🤗
I've never laughed so much!!!! My ribs are killing me... Absolutley brilliant film,your comentry is spot on,really funny....
Wasn't that cement mixer at the coca-cola plant that was like a block away from him?
6 years later and I still come back to watch this
My name is Callum as well
Funny thing is if your going over the humpback bridge the other way with the man and that tree you will barely just make it across like an inch between the trailer stands and the bridge 😂
58 tonnes? 820bhp!!! I took a 70 tonne train in a 540bhp volvo!
would u like a medal 😂😂
Mr. Irish 😂😂😂
3900nm, now that engine is torqueitive, lol :)
If you were also observant, the 0mph in the Volvo dashboard is the cruise control lol
I'm a Scania fan too but when I started playing this game (2 weeks ago) I have been driving nothing but Volvos. They are more affordable, better horsepower and damn good looking trucks. I am almost converted.
Pull the baobab to see the new 1.9 AI react :)
It's not "road tax" and hasn't been since 1935. It's vehicle excise duty. I think you'll find trucks pay more tax because of their emissions also, the tax you pay on your vehicle does not go to fix roads. As I said that stopped in 1935.
goose-gander....a tax by any other name is still a tax :(
+warbunny13203 Not if you have a 0.6 litre car or an electric car. If it was a 'road tax', then you'd have to pay anyway regardless. This way, it is actually possible to NOT pay road tax or only pay like a fiver, if you have an electric car or a fiat 500 or something.
So technically I can drive a heavy Tesla around the roads, wearing out the roads etcetera, and not pay a penny of road tax, because I'm not releasing any fumes in the air. If it was a proper tax, I'd probably be paying more than a regular car.
+RandyDarkshade Thats what council tax is for.
+RandyDarkshade not for roads? why no
Actually since this comment I have learned that they changed it again and now call it road tax as well as VED.
37:20 onwards is just hilarious xD
At 14:15, someone drove into the back of your truck and defied physics.
I have a question.
In this game can you drive around in normal cars?
Grogritark Unfortunately, no. However, I'd love to, as this game has an amazing map and better driving xD
DragonsPlusPokémon I have been looking for a game that lets you just drive, but have been unable to find one as of yet :( I bought TS2, it's great.
Grogritark Download a car mod.
Grogritark If you want a good free roam driving game, i absolutely recommend BeamNG.Drive! Check it out on steam.
Try out car sim
i laughed so hard on this..so funny :D
Player walks into truck agency. Player says "there is the truck back" truck is rekt clerk ":O" player "I pulled a fifty-eight tonne tree" clerk faints

43:08 Is Jesus Christ driving that Renault? I always thought that he would own a Scania.
That was goddamn hilarious.
hi squirrel in fame discovered that volvo has indeed great power and scania is the most customizable truck i have ever seen
trucks do have a lot of buttons with difrrent stuff.
21:40 should have turned your blinker off!!
I just bought the game yesterday and am trying to find my way. So got on to CZcams searched for Euro Truck Sim vids and found this on. Haven't laughed like this watching a simulation before. Your comments on the video are very British humor. Really enjoying the video. Keep on trucking mate.
So werid I Watched this as a Kid having No idea what anything mean all I know was Big Truck Pulling Heavy Trailer, Now I'm in High School and its Fun revisiting Old Video or Channels
Love the Content Paul you are the reason why I got in to and love Simulation Games
When does the Nice DLC pack come out?
I wish u could tint ur windows in this game
I can't believe this was 9 years ago wtf!!
U just make a boring game sound so entertaining...outstanding commentary
Why does it always say gullable at the bottom of the description
wow
No it says License
Wow you stole my lungs
+The Terminator Kid hahaha
i was just about to click on the description when i realised it.
Anyone watching this in 2021?
Yes
The weight of the log at the humpback bridge has actually lifted the wheels of your cab giving you no traction to move either way. It's smart physics really for such a good game that would happen in real life.
42:18 I think I learned my lesson: when in a car crash, just arrange the vehicles to look like the other people caused it!
The amount of adverts in your video's is ridiculous.
***** I wondered about that because before I have been watching a video with loads of adverts before and had reload the page for various reasons and then there is no ads. I did not know that was why. Thanks.-))
