Hello Ladies & Gentlemen and as always, thank you for watching!!! Today, we are called to a very unique, challenging situation. A Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck apparently rear-ends a semi truck on the Interstate, then leaves the roadway, rolls multiple times according to witnesses, and lands on its wheels over 400 yards off the interstate. There is no direct access for our trucks, and, even if there were, the ground is too soft. We pull out all of the main winch line on our Century 1150R rotator towing and recovery vehicle, and use every Yankum Rope, every red endless loop sling, every flat strap, every clevis, and every RimSling I have just to be able to reach the truck in the corn field. We also get to test our new EarTec EVADE headsets. Crystal-clear even at the distance we were having to work. A fun challenge and, also, you get to meet a new member of the crew!!! I hope you all enjoy this video!!! Thanks for watching and God bless!!!

I like how you started the video with "You go down and scout it out, I'll stay here" and then you went down with Brad to help scout :)

Don't send a bloke where you don't want to go yourself. One person will see something someone else misses.

@user-qpadydh5yp9vc6m 10 месяцев назад

I don't remember him ever asking anyone to go somewhere he would not go. That's a not the way Ron. Wofrks.

@richardbedard1245 9 месяцев назад

That truck must have been "flying" to go that far after hitting a semi!

@Lorgres Год назад

It's incredible to see how much energy a car of that size has when driving at highway speed. I would have never imagined it going that far into a field after a crash, especially after rolling.

Chances are the engine was still running until it ran out of fuel.

@Ron Pratt , Thank you for another interesting and educational video. For a good while now, I've wanted to say how much I appreciate you leaving your text notes on the screen long enough for us to read them in real time! (No stopping, slowing, or rewind required 👍👍)

@heatherkohlwey8379 Год назад

Welcome to the team, Brad! You will have the best experience of your career working with them. For liability reasons, you probably couldn't have the farmer just bring out a tractor. That did not look like a fun job, but another challenge conquered. Please stay safe, and God bless.

@julielumsden5184 Год назад

I was thinking that as well, that’s how we used to do it.

@warrenksanbornjr.6643 Год назад

Welcome aboard Brad Ron Pratt and family are a good crew to work for Ron will teach you and educate you on safety and proper towing

@paulprigge1209 Год назад

Would’ve been the simplest. With no insurance etc.

@chris76-01 Год назад

Trying to find the farmer for that piece of land could take longer than just doing the recovery yourself. On those big farms, nobody is usually around most of the time.😊

@warrenksanbornjr.6643 Год назад

@@julielumsden5184 yes and one of the first things Ron Pratt notice when he arrives on scene with the rotator is the power lines up Above

@melanierandolph6953 Год назад

Always love watching your retrievals. Plus you have a good narrative voice.

@SanguisAngelus1 Год назад

Have you considered painting the cable and marking a 3-6 foot section where you would want to stop pulling to ensure you leave enough wraps on the drum? Maybe even with 1ft marks indicating a countdown till the stop section for minimum wraps?

@bushmaster2936 Год назад

The wire rope has oil/grease on it to prevent rusting and binding. It's unusual to deploy that much cable from the drums.

@SETO-HUTO Год назад

@@bushmaster2936 yeah and because it doesnt get unwrapped that much often the cable want to hold its memory of being wrapped around the drum

@alanstant9356 Год назад

Wow that was just too crazy there Ron with all of that rigging. It was amazing that you had enough to get that truck out. You said that the truck was way out there. You was not kidding lol. The one thing i learned is that Our Lord provides for us when we need him too. He always comes thru for his children. God Bless each and everyone of you guys.

@susandallessandro2905 Год назад

That for sure is the longest tow I have ever seen you do! I have one question. How fast was that guy going to end up that far from where he left the road? I understand flipping but I think he made it to another county! Good job as always.

@GeorgeZ213 Год назад

I saw 2 or 3 tows so far out, the drum on his winch was out as far as he felt safe doing. Even then he neeeded a couple lengths of chain for eben more length. One in particul he was rescuing a telehandler that had partially dug itself in soft muddy dirt.

@PrvtChurch Год назад

He was likely going 'highway speed' so 60-80mph.

@johncraig8919 Год назад

Ron, could you of asked the owner of the land, if they could have helped?

@notthisguy8817 Год назад

Definitely didn't flip that far. They followed tire tracks all the way through the actual cornfield.

@mmi16 Год назад

Think the guy tried to 'drive away' after the initial impact, until the engine died.

@stevebarde8766 Год назад

🙏🙇🙏 Prayers for the driver of the Chevy Silverado ... and prayers for a speedy recovery ... My thoughts are with the driver, another AWESOME job, Ron Pratt, and company 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

@JacksonGuitarsPlayer03 Год назад

At my previous towing job the trucks were packed nicely as well. Powerful engines can handle. You should put more bright LED lights to get a farther view on your truck to see better at night if possible

@ijgintl Год назад

Top notch professional job! Bravo!

@DieCastoms Год назад

When you link to loops together like that, put a piece of blocking or something between the ends so that they cannot pull -tight- and nest into a knot. will make it much easier to get them apart later, and less likely to friction-weld to each other.

@davidglaum2538 Год назад

Looks like he might have tried a run away being that far into the field

@JackMacLupus Год назад

Had the same idea. Because its a REALLY far distance that this car got from the Interstate to just "roll" it.

@MattyMatt80 Год назад

I agree!! Seems a little suspicious honestly. Oh my damn.

@dangerrangerlstc Год назад

Or unconscious from the crash. Depending on what happened, foot may have pinned the throttle until the inertia switch cut the fuel.

@markfergerson2145 Год назад

With all the airbags deployed and severe injuries, he may have just been unconscious with his foot on the pedal.

@Markbabb Год назад

If the driver was seriously injured what makes you think he tried to run ? I drive a semi and I don’t use crude control only because if I have a medical emergency the truck won’t keep going he probably had cruise control set and probably was knocked unconscious

@PerryYoung-ef7if Год назад

Wow, if you do many more of at these types of distances you may need to consider adding a Helicopter to the fleet. It wouldn't be anywhere near cost effective, but it would make for awesom content. 😃

@leonb2637 Год назад

Maybe a drone helicopter might be a good idea for figuring out how to get vehicles out as well as more video for us.

@klsc8510 Год назад

Well done except for forgetting to have plenty of batteries! Somethings you can just not have too many of!

@sherrygantt2158 Год назад

Now you have become a farmer. Harvesting Chevy pickup. 😂 Did they already have the semi taken care of? Brad, you did great!! Ethan, you and your dad always do great teamwork. When Ethan was being pulled. The song "Slow Ride" came to mind. 😂 enjoyed your late evening corn field video.

@colinripley-p6v Год назад

Any reason to not ask the farmer to pull the truck closer with their tractor?

@bobmazzi7435 Год назад

If the farmer was on site, that would be a great idea. But, this may have been a remote field and getting a tractor there might have taken longer than doing it this way.

@KevinBenecke Год назад

You should add one of those receiver hitches with the hole in it so you can use a clevis through the hole in situations like this. I saw Matt from Matt's Off Road Recovery use it. I think it may even be made by Yankum. You could put one on each of your trucks. I've seen Casey LaDelle use them too for his off road recoveries as well. What happened to the semi?

@kd5nrh Год назад

For relatively light jobs like this, (really light compared to dragging a loaded semi out of a hole, I mean) it might be worth having a few hundred foot rolls (or match the usable length of the boom winches so each full pull is one extension line) of dyneema winch line with eye splices on both ends available. I wouldn't want any of the lighter sizes on that final drag, but by then you didn't need the extra length anyway. And bonus, getting it clean and coiled neatly is pretty much the traditional new guy job. :) Another thought: is there a reason not to pull both lines out at the start? My thinking is it would have saved some effort on the reset when everybody was already tired, since you could just switch to the blue winch and get right back to pulling.

@sylvia912 Год назад

Just a quick question. How fast was this driver going? For him to go that far into the field!! GEEZZZ! Hope he's alright.

@wewi3101 Год назад

Mr. Pratt, Use Lime green with red against it, marking paint to make a1 ft paint mark on your cable to show when its coming close to unspooling so that you can stay on the ground and tell. And also make hash marks at 50ft intervals to tell how far out you are. 50ft one 100ft 2 150ft 3 200 ft 4 etc. One other is to put a truck mirror up high near the cab on the back of the cab so you can view the spool.

@roboftherock Год назад

Carrying out all of those suggestions would deprive Ron of the exercise gained in clambering up and down No 11

@equippedphotography4757 Год назад

Inirtia switch probably set when it crashed so no fuel pump?

@torsson2 Год назад

Don't know about this but some cars has a crash fuel shutof. Small red button that kills the 12v to the fuel pump.

@michaelholman5550 Год назад

This is a perfect example of why people should wear a seatbelt, not just because of the "serious injury", that can happen even when seat belt is used. But because it keeps you in the drivers seat with the best chance to stop or control the vehicle. If you look at 4:07 when Ron first goes to the truck the seatbelt is in the retracted position and during a bad enough impact the seat belt will lock in place permanently so we know the seat belt was not used and the driver was more than likely thrown all over the cab and had no option to even try to hit the foot/emergency brakes, put it in Neutral/Park or steer. Even with the seat belt on he may have been to disorientated from the crash/roll to do anything but at least he would have been in a position to do so if able. Luckily he went into an empty field and not on down the highway or even over/thru the cable barrier into the other side and oncoming traffic.

@alanflor703 Год назад

You need a 4WD ATV in your arsenal. Would have been an easy tow back to the road.

@bobmazzi7435 Год назад

A number of rigs would help to extend the reach for an easy pull like this. A jeep, a skidsteer, a small tractor or even a set of hay forks on a larger tractor. The problem is the balance between doing the job with what you brought, and going back to get the "right" tools for the job.
