This video really is the definition of "all the gear but no idea"
I agree
So so true! It's PAINFUL to watch almost! Is this supposed to be cringe comedy? How do these guys have all that gear and 3+ million subs? Is it supposed to be a clown show or what?
It's like watching mobile game ads where the game is played poorly on purpose to frustrate the viewer. I can only assume this is a sneaky ad for the tow truck where I'm supposed to buy it just because I think I can do a better job myself.
Accurate!! And funny!!
Can someone explain what they can do better? I’m genuinely asking since I don’t know anything about recovering and everybody is saying they suck and whatnot.
If they were trying for the least practical and most expensive way to recover a bus then they nailed it|!
bro is playing Mudrunner lmaooo
ok smart guy how wold you have done the rescue?
@@ismalinkin there's around a dozen ways to do it better than those meat head reality actors
@@riptwan Gives no actual response
@@riptwan We're alll ears.
It was like watching amateurs, I was shocked when someone clambered under suspended truck. Speechless
yeah that guy was insane
It would have taken them an extra minute to put some kind of blocking under the frame (big wood blocks, a tire, etc) but nope, let's make an osha joke while your buddy could die horribly in an easily preventable accident
The lack of awareness is shocking
I agree with all of you. That could have ended badly. Obviously they didn’t have any timber blocking. Did you see the “sticks” they put under the rear support diggers. Totally a joke!!
@@fritzkin8733
Must've been all out of pool noodles. 😂
Lol!
13:20 this guy with the truck, has been waiting his whole life for this moment.
He seemed to be the only one around NOT making matters worse. He should have a CZcams channel or something.
Dave is like the super heroes in movies. Makes a bigger mess than the original problem & still gets praised at the end 😅
Dam straight and we love him for it!!
@sys-administrator he lives by the saying (looks great from my house)
No but for real some times you got to broke things to fix them.
@@sys-administrator Yeah lol. Though to be fair in this case I don't really think it was his fault. And besides a great condition RV stuck in the mud isn't much use.
1500-3k at most@@sys-administrator
;.. a little collateral damage eh ...
This is a great example of how important it is to assess the situation. Extreme weight can result in serious damage. Using common sense and knowing the strong hook points of a vehicle is crucial to recovering a vehicle properly.
Yeah, this was a terrible performance.
Who pays for the damages regardless of if the tow was a freebie 🤔🤔🤔 ID still be flipping out 😫😫😫😒
Agree completely. Don't EVER hook to a receiver without checking on the weight rating of it. That receiver was probably rated to pull 8k-10k at the very most. That wasn't ever going to be a suitable recovery point for this situation since that RV is probably thirty to forty thousand pounds.
Observation:
If they were first lifted from the rear axel and filled in the holes, maybe even swung it over alittle to some firmer material,then go to the front and lifted it from the axel adding just a little power when the pulling started ,then the damage might of been too severe.
Doing things "gently" could result in a better outcome.🤔
@@richardbause2453 well stated!!
Thanks for sharing. Next time it would be good to consult with an experienced towing company like Matt's Offroad Recovery. They have done similar jobs with much lighter equipment and virtuallly no damage.
This type of content has made it so I will never make the mistake of owing a large RV. Thank you for saving me the expense.
Don't drive that size RV off road. Problem solved.
Never stand under a loaded boom. I’ve seen the aftermath of one failing with a man standing under it. Absolutely gruesome.
Or for that matter, (lay down under) a hoisted Class A motorhome!
No1 rule, crane operators license should be revoked
I couldn't believe the guy did that.
I don't care about someone's trashed bus, climbing under that/allowing someone to do it is horrendous.
My heart literally sank when they cut to that shot. I'm glad he's ok.
Please don't do this "swing it" stuff.
In this video, there was several situations you created, maybe because of lack of planning. You might have:
-Planed for an exit, before having the RV in tow.
-Inspected the tow-hitch, so maybe you have decided otherwise.
-Used radios, so maybe the parking break lock could be avoided.
-Stopped at first chance to re-rig, to then exit out the best way.
-Correct materials to have under the outriggers and could rest the RV on, so you could safely re-rig.
-Secured the RV, so it could look safe to crawl under, to attach to the axle.
Sorry, but this video looked lacy, and we all know you can do better.
Okay Captain hindsight.
@@blakewarner179the 6 p,s comes to mind. Good video of who not to call.
Yea, when the guy was crawling under that RV without support blocks, that was simply stupid.
@@blakewarner179 Considering we've seen Matt from Matt's off road do multiple RV recoveries, this does not seem like hindsignt, it should have been common knowledge.
@@blakewarner179 he is 100% and none of what he mentioned is “hindsight” it was actually the opposite. Terrible recovery
This video really made me appreciate just how good of a job Rory Irish does, with Trail Mater.
Matt is the best among them from Matt's Offroad Recovery
Thank u D for everything u do for your community your a real one
In the next episode, Dave will be showing us the court summons for damaging the guys buss🤣
Really?
@@brucefredrickson9677 LOL, lets hope not.
LMAO. I hope he appreciates the no charge.
I’m sure he has them sign a statement saying he accepts no responsibility for any damages
I know a few good judges 🤣🤣
I’m a heavy recovery specialist in Pennsylvania my question is,,,,, why not winch it and make your life a million times easier?? You have the resources at your disposal. Not knocking your methods as I wasn’t there just asking that’s all
CZcams content, baby!
Recovering the bus from the sand: free
Destroying rear end of million dollar bus for YT content: priceless
Kinetic recoveries are much more effective in sand.
I own a towing company in Atlanta- I’ve never understood how they do recoveries lol must be a Utah thing
That's what makes the video lol
Great job to all the parents who help get the mobile home unstuck. Thank for your sharing
Bro i just would like to say that i love to watch you guys do ur thing everywhere y'all go and i definitely love the close relationships between all of you, plus the respect that you guys have for each other, please continue to stay tight with each other and bring us good content, thank you fellas
You need to hire some people that know what they are doing.
exactly
When the owner is a massive control freak and has to be the one that does everything, how would anyone ever learn?
Exactly...such as Matt's off road recovery. I would have been well pi&£ed if they did that to my vehicle.
Nah, they will just double down, like most cons, because cult behavior is part of their character. Their base are halfwits that just want to see big trucks with lots of unnecessary torque.
@@evolicious if you hate them so much why do you keep watching 💀
This video made me realise how capable Matt of Matt Offroad's recovery really is.
No shit. Between Sparks and Robbie layon they make even the stupidest thing Matt could do look like a genius move.
Different terrain. Matt would have sunk to probably
@@unknown-eu5ed Matts done swampy lake bed recoveries before. He winched slowly from a solid footing a long distance away.
@twostroke350 Yeah, not with a huge rv, and from the looks of the video, there was no solid ground anywhere near.
@@unknown-eu5ed
That is why you bring a whole bunch of 8c8 flats. You drop those on the ground, park the wreckers on those and then pull from there.
To watch a motorhome getting destroyed priceless. It's like you called your worst enemy and asked him if he knew someone who could pull me out. lmao
Thank you SO MUCH for helping our family! After trying and digging all day long, we did not know how we were going to get that motorhome out. We don't think we would have gotten out without your help. You were a blessing and a miracle to show up as you did - giving. your time, talents and resources without asking anything in return. When we showed up out of the blue to ask for help, you didn't hesitate and said you would be there in a few minutes. You came back TWICE to help. even early Sunday morning, with all of your massive equipment - even when that meant taking time away from your families. AND then you took us up in your Black Hawk helicopter for our grandson's birthday! WOW! Thank you for that incredible experience, your huge generosity and your big hearts. It is inspiring. We will be forever grateful.
Content creator yes, Towing professional not even close. I'm in florida. We do recoveries every day on million dollar coaches in sand and mud without yanking the hitch off or stressing the frame by lifting it like that. Very educational on what not to do.
Lol, I was watching this whole ordeal and thinking man, those people were dumb for bringing that rig in there and getting it stuck and even dumber for letting people who aren’t recovery specialists pull it out. They ripped the rear up, the cargo doors, the front fenders, I know they just took the front cap off so okay there maybe, but then to top it all off they lifted that rig up from the very back end of the frame, I could only imagine the sounds inside that rig when that happened…
I live 3 miles from these guys, and was thinking the same fuckin thing!
What you do in Florida is absolutely boring, this however is really great content.
@@DooDeeDew getting good content is one thing ruining people’s very expensive Deisel pusher rv’s for those views is another
Amateur hour. He doesn’t understand basic physics. This was horrible to watch. Cringe.
It's how I do recoveries in Snowrunner. Just winch it and drag it all the way to the destination without looking behind you. No matter how many trees and rocks it gets stuck behind and smashes into. As long as it arrives, and then you still get a thank you from the owner. 😅
Coming from someone unlicensed, unbonded, and uninsured. I mean, I'm just guessing, but I bet I nailed it on the head....
@@yourface3154 You do understand Snowrunner is a PC game?
@@schumifannreins295 Nope, I failed to recognize that, my bad.
PC Games and real life are two separate things. Having played Snowrunner it does not offer the same sort of recovery capabilities as even a non-bespoke recovery vehicle has.
Lmao now I’m going to hop on snow runner tonight got me in the mood
Whoa! That RV was buried! I enjoy watching you & Your crew
Awesome Job!!
"Things got a little western." Love it. I'm an Idaho boy so I definitely get that!
Always amazes me when people take these luxury buses out into off-road areas. I hate damaging my vehicles, so this would be a nightmare scenario for me to experience. Some expensive repairs needed to that RV now
Exactly hey I got an idea let’s take my luxury greyhound to a sandbox.
I have taken my motorhome to the sand dunes on many occasions, 32ft so not as big as that monster but I have been stuck in the sand. Its all part of the fun and games.
I, agree with you 😮
Yeah, I've been around these big busses alot, they stay on the pavement. Even then it needs to be fairly flat pavement. Railroad crossings can get these stuck pretty quick.
@@fordmud The off-road crowd is not like normal people, obviously this was not a new or shocking situation to any of the people involved, just another day stuck in the sand. The best attitude I have found is like these people, just kick back and party another day, the real problems happen when someone needs to get back to work the next day. I recall one motorhome that was stuck at the sand dunes for about a month until they got it pulled out. The owners drove back to salt lake to go to work during the week.
Bud's Ranger would have pulled the KW, the wrecker and the RV all out at one time! 😂
Yeah right
@@nonono5351it did before. Lol.
Great work and well enjoyed. Thank brother for makig meaningful content and being a good example. Respect and hat off to you.
You are a very special young man. God Bless You and keep safe.
As a recovery driver for four decades first you lift the front or which ever way you are pulling, find a real place to hook up and winch out of the holes then slowly pull it out
They don’t care lol they only want content
Then get your ass out there and show them how it's done.
I was there with my friends watching you guys recover this RV. It was so cool seeing your wrecker and Blackhawk in person!! You made our weekend 1000% better, thank you! :)
I'm in Utah, what area was this?
Although the rescue was not as expected, I think it was quite good. I wish the rescue team good health and success. ❤❤❤😊😊😊
Thank you so much for sharing ❤❤❤
As someone who's lived around sand most of my life it's best to air down first. Once you're on the pumpkins airing down just adds weight to being stuck. I hate shovels as I'm always the operator while everyone stands around making excuses.
100%. Airing down is a game changer. All vehicles involved.
lol 30 years a go i installed slack adjusters and air lines on super b bulkers, could not read a tape measure when i started, ended up on special projects, they flew me across the country to take care of thier best client, learned how to intall hydraulics, was a great place to work, miss those guys.....and that one woman who took a very special interest in me lol
would it be a good idea to bring a truck load of rocks to put under the tires. I got my 10000 pound indoor forklift stuck in the mud once and I jacked it up and put 1 inch landscaping Rock underneath the tires and that worked.
I cant imagine what the repair bill gonna be to fix all the damage the rv sustained.
Be 100x more than a Blackhawk flight lol
3k at most
@@Go2scout3k? Try 50 most likely. New cargo doors. Paint. New fiberglass and repair. Frame damage etc. .
That's what insurance is for
@@Unearthed53 yeah especially on a 150k+ motorhome
The last music track was awesome, Bossa Nova style really enjoyed! Thanks!
these are buddies of mine that they got unstuck. I can't tell you how big it was for the diesel bros to do this. These are good dudes that do good things!
That kid got the best birthday present imaginable! I'm 73 and I'm envious! You guys are awesome. God Bless you all.
I’m no specialist by any stretch of the imagination but in my opinion your soft ground recovery kit could use some proper outrigger pads [for the recovery vehicle] and road plates [to place under a stricken vehicle].
Other than that, steller job once again.
Out of the frying pan and into the fire. Yet still saving the situation! 👍🏼
Who TF uses 2x2"s for cribbing? lol
No kidding. I think they did this for YT money. Nothing wrong with it, I'm sure the owner of the motorhome agreed to the extra time for the recovery. Maybe he got a "cut of the action" or a free extraction? LOL
@@monkeysuncle2816 You use what yuh got!
@@toomanyhobbies2011 heavy d only charges for the cost of travel if its far away, otherwise, he doesnt usually charge
@@toomanyhobbies2011 the motorhome had dealer plates on it. Plus all the damage to that thing. Something is up.
You’re a good dude with a lot of good people backing you up. I have nothing but respect for you
Wow, Just because you own large recovery equipment doesnt mean you are a recovery specialist
Just because you think you know doesn’t mean you should open your mouth on here.. Obviously they got it out and paid for there damages
I would love to see a nice block and tackle winch job sometime. No dramatics, just intelligence and the correct equipment.
🤝🤝👍👍👍🇺🇸
Block and tackle job 4 miles long ?
Got to see this in person! Cool to see the CZcams video of it! 😎👍🏼
You guys are international rescue... thunder birds ? Love ya videos. And thanks for helping others.
The Chev got stuck and the Ford got stuck
But the Chev unstuck when the Dodge showed up
But the Dodge got stuck in the tractor rut,
Which eventually pulled out the Ford
With some difficulty
Well more rain than we?d seen for a thousand years
Caused financial joys and biblical fears
It caused some smiles it caused some tears
But more to the point of our story
For The first time in the collective memory,
That old brown prairie that had been so dry for so long was very muddy
Boggy and sticky
We?d pull one truck out and get another stuck in
And motors would roar and tires would spin
We?d sink right down, down to the diff, and we?d all take turns and do it again
Till no one could move, we?d call one more friend,
Come on out here, we need you?bring your truck
The Chev got stuck and the Ford got stuck
But the Chev unstuck when the Dodge showed up
But the Dodge got stuck in the tractor rut
Which eventually pulled out the Ford
And the Dodge
They got me stuck in the mud, so they couldn?t rehearse
And Chavase too has missed his work
Richie, he now fears the worst, he stood up his ex wife she called him a jerk
Course Holman didn?t have nothing better do to, ?cept ranch.
The Chev got stuck and the Ford got stuck
But the Chev unstuck when the Dodge showed up
But the Dodge got stuck in the tractor rut
Which eventually pulled out the Ford
Well it was truck after truck, we all got stuck
?cept the big old four by hutterite truck
We all thought ?lord are we in luck!?
But he wouldn?t come anywhere near us,
Mighty neighborly, mighty neighborly.
So we used a lot of our backs, a little of our brains
We jacked up the jacks, and snugged up the chains,
We all did our very best to refrain from shovelin?.
We put what timber we had, underneath the wheels
And we was all out of sand, but managed to steal
Two sacks of the best modern canola seed you ever did see,
That ?oughta give us some traction
The Chev got stuck and the Ford got stuck
But the Chev unstuck when the Dodge showed up
But the Dodge got stuck in the tractor rut
Which eventually pulled out the Ford
We spilled genetically modified canola seed
That was genetically modified for controlling the weeds
And for big old yields and margarine oil, raised hell all over that native prairie soil
Agriculture Canada is definitely gonna be looking for us
Thank you, owner of biggest motor home in the dessert. I love these recovery videos. I am so happy you got stuck.
Mee too
Way to go HeavyDS....some youtube material and a massive tow for free! Love it!
loved the video, would like to try some recovery work like this!
The kids will remember the helicopter rider for the rest of their lives. Great job!
You guys crack me up, having way too much fun helping people out of bad situations, bless ya,
when shit hits the fan, just give Heavy D a call lol
Unreal the damage to the RV but geez it needs to move. Oh, crap the tow truck in sunk. Stay safe & take care of you all. Thanks for sharing, eh :))
Cool video. You can really see all the chemtrails in the sky in some shots.
Idea: you guys deal with sunk tires all the time so why not get a big stack of aluminum military airdrop pallets? They can be modified and placed under vehicle tires to drive on or used as sleds to drag to better ground.
It is awesome that no matter the mistake that the family has been through you were there and not only for the recovery but you have made that kid's birthday a memory that he never forget giving him a helicopter ride and his family
Great job guys!
Watching you guys reminds me of when I used to watch the Three Stooges on Saturday morning
There are plenty of supporting fans offering admiring comments but nobody is talking about the extreme amount of damage Dave needlessly inflicted to a VERY expensive RV! I noticed that we didn't hear from the owner expressing how much HE admires this recovery. Or not.
That's the price you pay when you play with these vehicles .
End of story .should have thought about that.
You do realize that they fabricate metal and build vehicles, don't you? Being that they do these recoveries for free, I'm pretty sure they will completely repair any damage they caused and make things right. They have helped a lot of people in the past by fixing things for free that they didn't damage. You must not watch this channel very often.
In the beginning of the vid he says that the owner had some help attempting recovery before Dave and crew showed up and that he didn’t create the damage you see. The receiver did get pulled off, but it’s entirely possible it was failing before Dave attempted a kinetic pull. Judging by the damage beforehand, it’s a high possibility.
I mean Dave could left dudes million dollar RV stuck out on the lake bed? Let's drive this 35,000 lb motorhome into an off roading area. Stupid game win stupid prizes.
@@rywmilleryes he could have and then someone else could have come and just winched them out, instead of trying to rip the bus in half. This was a fail.
I’m surprised the rv didn’t fold in half lifting it wow, impressive recovery!
it most likely did.. those frames and garbage... I dont know why people buy RV's they are built super cheap. I work in an RV manufacture facility and I would NEVER buy one.
made from junk steel ...if any steel at all, was it plastic🤔Pulling the tow point off so easily Say no more.
Must of been the best birthday pressie ever. Big D he's the man
yes fiber glass RVs, cheap and only built for streets ....the real buses, with real heavy duty chasis are the the Prevosts, Van Hool etc those are built so solid and they last
It had a dealer plate on it so I don't know if anyone cared much.
The motor home owner is a proud member of the "more money then brains club"!
i love seeing the oshkosh truck especially living in the city from where there made
I don't understand the draw of taking such a large RV out on such questionable road conditions. So great to have machines to rescue everyone and their vehicles. Love the roar of the engine!
The Oshkosh is such a monster. I need this beast for the Berlin streets!
Dude, I know you don't always do that but the fact you did this job without charging them is great to hear.. Especially since this is the first video I'm watching of you.. You got my like.. okaaaaay I'll subscribe toooo lol
Was that after BURNING MAN.. looks like after their floods.. it was insane party with crazy weather.. stay well and vigilant guys. Nicely done as always. 💯🇺🇸😎🌪🌎
I'm glad dave is man enough to post his L's along with his W's. Hope your towing insurance took care of this customer cause that rig got really messed up when it really shouldn't have.
There's a certain point in recovery, where 'getting it out' is a whole lot better than leaving it stuck. What other/better ways could you think of to get it out? It's not like you're gonna sling it with some rotators 20x attempting to drive it out.
@@codyace using the winches instead of trying to use a snatch strap for starters.
@@iffykidmn8170 you've obviously snatched anything stuck in muck. That's why the kinetic energy ropes exist.
I thought the same with that LIGHT what 10,000 lb trailer hitch
Probably why they weren't charged. I watch a program called Trucking Hell (which deals with Heavy Duty/HGV recovery in the UK including vehicles the same size/weight as that RV) in various scenarios (including stuck in Mud) and I don't recall one episode where they just continuously yanked a vehicle like that.
Great job guy's. Love watching you guy's having fun and helping out. Thanks for the video stay safe guy's.
You guys are awesome! Just the best!
Towing it while in gear is always fun
We have carried many sheets of 1 inch plywood on a trailer for jobs like this one. Lifting it and putting it on a couple sheets lined up in a path back to hard pack works for cement mixers. Lifting it a little with your riggers up and pulling at the same time sometimes helps. Of course no bungy effect doing this.
Heavy D, the videos are one thing, but you and your team getting these massive, utterly stuck vehicles out is another!!!! Great Job with the vids and your direction and purpose in life!!!!!!!
Man that looks like big big fun
Yep, I truly enjoyed!
I loved this video. Great job to all the people who helped get the mobile home unstuck 😊
Great coverage.. Really enjoyed watching. Never a dull moment with you guys.. And the fact that you helped give that Birthday boy a great " lift" in the helicopter.. Next time, no (hot doggin) around.. Go by your instincts, and get the job done! Keep up the great work. Later Gator
They showed up to help you. Getting to play with all their fun toys was just a...bonus 🤣🙏
Man! You have serious muscle with that equipment. Nice
Why you guys are awesome. Everyone pitch in to help out. No one trying to out do each other. What makes American great is when total strangers come together to help out their fellow American. It's what this country was built on & needs to come back to that way!
... thanks to biden? ... YIKES ...
Always an adventure when it comes to Heavy D! He saw it was too easy and decided to give himself a challenge.
and wrecked everything even worse than it was because hes not got a clue
No matter wat race ya take care every one the same good bless ya all g from ct
Oh, you gonna "Party" this year!
The kids in the Blackhawk = priceless , i can appreciate the effort for the community . thanks 🙏
You need floatation matts under bus wheels, try 3/4 by 4x8 sheets glued together to 1 1/2 thick lay under wheels to get it moving . Over lap sheets so they don't jam under buss . Keep buss moving ! Thanks for helping them and keep up the good work !
Good job sir thank for the help
bro thats an absolute PIG of an RV holy shit! amazing job getting that recovery done!
Good stories, like this one, helps to take the mind off of all this funky stuff dominating the news lately... well done.
Turn off the news its all lies and fearmongering
You didn't charge them a penny Wow - what a kind thing to do. There are still good people left in this world! semper fi.
HECK YAAAAAAAA, Awesome stuff. I thought the F350 wasnt gonna budge that Big Rig. Sorry for the damage on the Motor Home though. GREAT JOB!
Great vlog , I hope no one got hurt. Greetings from Poland ❤❤❤❤
Love these videos! God bless you all! Make miracles happen!
David that was great thank yougreat team hats off to you guys it was fantastic loved it thank you.
Very cool video, don't know why anyone would drive a Class-A motorhome down a dirt road lol
Your Madd Max Kawasaki Green Ninja Turtle is the Bomb, Dude!
What a birthday to remember..way to go Dave and crew!!
"now its a party guys" 😂 We got our rv stuck in wy. It looked pretty much like this. Took 10 guys, alot of digging, 20 hours a gen truck and 2 pick ups to get it out 😂
Thank you for the video.
Bro you and you team rock saludos from texas
El trabajo de Dave es como una aventura infinita 😁😁😁😁
the content just gets better when what there filming becomes a 'party'.
definetly my type of party, keep up the great videos
I remember when I used to watch your TV show Diesel Brothers and how you guys made Insane Diesel builds and I was only 12 years old and really wanted a diesel truck like the ones you guys made.
I lifted my Class-C 6 inches and added a 4X6 conversion, I've had it in some bizarre stuff, but soft power sand is no place for a RV, especially one that's 5 inches off the ground.
You need to build a recovery sled/skis that you can lift things onto and tow out of that sand/mud. You could lift the wheels up and place the skis under the wheels, strap them down to the skis, and then run. Spread the load over much larger square footage. Even just running it down the centerline of that motorhome would get it up out of the dirt.
