Amazing how stubbornly stupid some of these people are. Absolutely zero common sense.
The conditions those guys work in on a DAILY basis is unbelievable.. & its the "norm" for them.. I don't mind a "challenge" every once in a while but that's crazy..
What always amazes me about this sort of video is the amount of guys just milling about really close to where it's all going badly wrong. I would be standing well back if I wasn't directly involved. They are asking to get wiped out. Graham
I have seen a few where a piece of equipment is back up on the road/trail with a excavator, bucket is lowered to remove loop of cable, tow strap, tension on the tow strap is relaxed, loop slips off bucket tooth, awaay she goes!
This it, Ken???
Seen that one before. I always wondered if they had to set back on its feet again after it ran down the hill?
That is one Save. The same procedure was applied to various other vehicles, different country/s. One was a tadom truck, guy jumped in after it started to move, promptly back out. I'm guessing no air. One Dozer in Russia.
That driver at 11:40 has some balls. I'd be beyond scared being in that situation.
