Did I Just Make A Fool Of Myself?! 

This is us!! When I called for help, it was 7:30 pm and starting to rain 🌧 Not a good thing!! Matt's concern was that we were safe and had a place to sleep ❤ We were camping there, so we were fine. He assured us that he would get us out no matter what, and he was not kidding.. even though a chain reaction occurred and Colt got stuck as well. What an awesome group of people doing what they love and having fun!! The BLT's were delicious and it was fun chit chatting about the channel and hanging out. Down to earth people! Thanks for doing what you do!! We were sooo grateful this did not ruin our vacation and turned out the way it did 😎🤙

"I'm feeling defeated." "Your feet are right there." Thank you Trevor. I needed that.

I absolutely love the camaraderie between the whole team. No matter the job, you guys always seem to have a good time. Plus its always good to see you guys bring Ed with. Ive been taking care of my dad who doesnt have much time left at all, and i swear your videos are one of the few things to put a smile on my face and keep me going. Love you guys! Keep up the awesome work!

Huge shout out to Georges for letting me borrow his jeep and getting it a little dirty! 😉😁 mock, yeah, ing, yeah, bird, yeah👍

"My life is full of weird things, I hang out with you two" I nearly sprayed coffee on the screen laughing. Nice one Lizzie.

When this happens with a tractor around here, we just wait a couple weeks for the ground to dry up harder deeper down, then put it in low gear and drive it right out.

I've said it before and it remains true: The man that never made a mistake, never made anything. Great video!

Sometimes four wheel drive just gets you stuck fifty feet further down the trail.

I just love how dedicated everyone on the crew is. You'll all do whatever it takes to get em out and bring us along for the journey.

"I do weird things all the time like hanging out with you two" 😂 Best line EVER! Well said Lizzy.

One of the most entertaining episodes ever. I was sorry it had to end.

Just love you all for the fun we have in watching you! Team work definitely makes the dream work..!!!!!

Lizzy consistently impresses me. She's a remarkable woman with exceptional qualities, and should be recognized and honoured for them.

Well Matt you can’t say that people don’t watch RZR recovery’s anymore because they’re not interesting, because this one was _interesting!_

Matt, you and your crew have a great gig. You get to have fun offroading in various challenging environments, help other people, _and_ get paid to do it. I envy you guys.

Georges and BleepinJeep save the day again, im beginning to see a trend here 😅. The mud was insane though, it looked so dry on top I would never have guessed it would be that soft! Great teamwork guys! 👏

the only thing that would have made this video perfect .. at the end lizzie handing Matt a ' so we made a call ' T shirt

Matt & Company, I’ve been watching your videos for a few months now. While I’m genuinely intrigued with your projects & some of your more challenging recoveries, I find myself watching more recently just as a pick me up. Love your relationships with your family & friends. Every episode has a happy ending. “We’ll get them out”! Keep up the good work!

There is no good news on the internet and its cold and overcast where I am. And then I find your latest adventure. I can't stop laughing and am ready to face the world again. Many thanks to Matt and the whole team for reminding me there's fun to be had no matter what you're doing.

You guys need a land anchor! Especially being out there in the desert. They don't hold a ton of pressure but it's usually enough to get you pulled out of most situations. Not the "dead man" style but the shovel head style. Great video! 😆

Looks like a perfect extraction for the Sherp!!! Love your channel buddy!

Not gonna lie, love all you guys but Lizzy is my favorite. She's always ready to jump right into it and always has a line or two that really makes me laugh. I buried my Tahoe like that a couple of years ago when my daughter gave me a "hold my beer" moment 😂

I always say being a professional isn't about doing the job perfect everytime, it's in how you fix a mistake when they do happen because they always do.

Lizzie: "My life is made of weird things, like hanging out with you two" I just love Lizzie!!!

Trevor is so funny. I love his comments and the laughter he brings to the videos. Y'all are a Great team and a joy to watch!

this has to be my favorite video so far, for everything, the recovery, the friendship, the fun, the jokes, the footage !!

One time in Nevada I was ridding my XT600 across a "dry" lake. I was in 5th gear at about 50 MPH, when I started to do down. I was all by myself, and 40 miles from my pickup. I immediately snapped the throttle wide open, and headed for the edge. The old 600 had gobs of torque, and I had it geared for 95 MPH. I was tacked out in 5th gear, and going slower and slower. When I made it to the edge, the bike was going 5 MPH, but the back tire was going 95 MPH. I was digging a trench like you would not believe, BUT, I did make it out. I had a friend that broke through the crust on the same "dry" lake, and we had to leave it out there for a month so it would dry out. It was soooooo sticky when he got stuck that it took him 3 hours to crawl a mile. Yes, crawl. He said that he had never been so scared. The same thing will happen at the salt flats next to Salt Lake City. I lived in Elko Nevada at the time, and I was going home from Salt Lake City. I saw some people walking around a Jeep about 3/4 of a mile from the freeway. I walked out there and found a guy from Australia, and a girl from the UK. They had met while exploring the USA, and were doing it together. They had a Range Rover, and it was stuck. They had dug it out, so it was in a hole in the mud, but it was not high-centered. They asked me if I had any ideas. I said that they should unload all of their camping gear out of the back, and lower the tire pressure. We did that, and with the girl driving and both of us guys pushing, we got the Rover back on top of the crust. We loaded it back up and we drove it to the freeway. There was a service station a couple of miles farther west where they could air up their tires. I always wonder if they ever became a "couple".

MORR, you guys put out some of the best content on RU-vid and you deserve every subscriber! Also, here's a shout-out to Roger Dunn for always being helpful when viewers have questions. A few others do this as well; I appreciate that you use Matt's own explanation or his exact words in reply. And we can't forget Colin Richardson who coordinates the notification squad :D

Guys, you should consider making a sand/mud anchor and take it with you for this kind of rescue. I had to jury rig one once, but you could whip one out in your shop. You take a flat piece of steel plate maybe 3 feet by 3 feet, triangular shaped. Weld on some strong hinges about a foot from one end. Have a five foot bar that bolts to the hinges, and add some stock above it as a brace, so it can hinge one way but not the other. The hinge is so you can fold it for stowage. Hammer the pointed end of the flat plate into the mud, all the way in so the long bar is right down to the surface. Attach your winch line to the other end of the bar. The brace keeps the plate perpendicular to the bar, so it cannot fall forward and just pull out - visualize it like taking a hoe and hammering the blade down into the ground so the hoe handle is flat on the ground. Now grab that handle and try to pull it out - not pull up, but in line with the handle. Even in loose sand a 2 to 3 foot wide, 3 foot deep piece of place can hold against thousands of pounds of pull. and it comes back out of the ground pretty easily when rocking it and pulling straight up. I was stuck miles from anywhere, and hundreds of yards from anything I could anchor to. I made a crude anchor out of scraps in the back of my truck and was able to winch myself out. You guys know the kind of sand and mud you contend with - I am sure you can figure out the best size and sh ape for an anchor. Take it with you when heading to something like this rescue

Thank you for not leaving those traction boards or any other trash behind. Your attention to detail on leaving things at least as good as it was before the customer got there is much appreciated

those customers were awesome. recoveries like that are what its all about. helping good people when they need it

Hi Matt, and everyone, just to say how much we enjoy watching your vlog’s, we are in the UK and just love watching you all especially Lizzy and Jamie and how they get involved too. We have traveled a lot in the states and can relate to some of the places, nearly every evening we try and catch up with you all and enjoy every one. Now in our 70’s but still young at heart. Keep up the great work and good luck and best wishes to you all 👍😎 Denny & Marie

Canceling the Dentist appointment was the right call by Lizzie! You can always get a tooth pulled out but it’s not everyday you can help pull out a RZR, Jeep, traction Mats and a Morvair.

"I do weird things all the time, my life Is made of weird things, like hanging out with you two" Lizzie 🤣🤣🤣

The message I’d like to leave with you guys today is we didn’t take it serious. 😂 I love this channel! Such a great team and lot of laughs. Making a crappy situation a fun one. Keep up the awesome work!!!!!!! 🤜🤛

Matt, have you looked at land anchors? I've seen them successfully used for self recovery, though I'm sure that they are not the answer in every case.

Trevor and Lizzy are the duo of the decade. So entertaining!

Greetings from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire in the UK. I have been following your programme for over a year and liked it very much. Have subscribed now and would like to see the Banana back in action with Morvair. Keep it up guys, you guys are great and doing a great job especially your charitable side.

I was always told..."Do a Job well or not at all"...So, Matt, You really did a good one here!! Like Myself, put the humor to it too. You can only get mad at Yourself or laugh it off.

Watch y’all’s videos everyday. Takes me away from the world for a few minutes. Brings me a lot of happiness!

So glad I discovered this channel a few months ago. It's fun and informative and everyone involved is likeable. As a high school video production (also automotive) teacher I appreciate the way video production values have improved from the first until now. I also greatly appreciate that I can watch without a constant stream of beeps of profanity. Keep up the good work. It's nice to find something that's worth watching!

I have never been to Utah but watching you go on calls is like a getting a personal tour of some amazing country. I know the keyboard cowboys have it all figured out from their devices in there recliners but I have to say that the thing I'm most impressed with is how well you all work together. That says a lot . No yelling or complaining or drama. That speaks volumes. I understand your work very well and no situation is 100 percent predictable it's usually your best educated guess. My son is 2 and always wants to watch Matt on his adventures. Excellent show 👍👍

We moved to from Cedar City UT to Page AZ in early spring of 1965. Lake Powell was still filling, and Lone Rock was not known as Lone rock because you could get to it in a dune buggy with big balloon tires. I was there in 1983 when the plywood splash boards were installed on the dam spillways. Now Lake Powell's level is back to where it was in 1965. Amazing!!! It will be back!!

Glad to see the videos keeping coming. Enjoyed this one a lot! Loved the wheel well cam and Lizzie giving Trevor a place to sit. If those ropes were any longer you could have done it from home.

“Cause I’m defeated”. “But your feet are right there!” Lmaooooo These are are hilarious

LOL! i lost it at Trevor saying "your feet are right there" after Matt being 'de-feeted' LOL

I wonder if Matt gets one of his own t-shirts. Because he had to make a call 😂

Watched video twice, checked it so it’s on my “All Time” playlist. Epic rescue, dialog and ending credit! First time I recall customer feeding crew. PS - Have you been banned from the local car wash?

When Flaming Gorge Reservoir is low, there is a mud flat that forms on Big Dry Creek near where it joins the Green River. I was fishing and watched 7 Four wheel trucks get stuck one after another. One guy got stuck and called his buddy. He got stuck and they called another friend and so on and so on. That was one Hell of a good show I can tell you that for sure!

Very interesting video. Razor called for help. Morvair then called for help. Jeep then called for help. This one was not scary as other rescues, but it was complicated! Thanks guys, your videos are wonderful.

Matt says: Did I just make a fool of myself? Yup! Not the first time and not the last time! LOL This was a very difficult recovery and well done by some great guys with the right equipment and experience. Everyone, including the customers turned a difficult experience into a fun time. Thanks to everyone involved for a great video!

Brings back memories from last year. My son got our Ranger stuck, then his truck. Then I got my truck stuck. Next up was a 50 horse Kubota a 75 horse Deere then the 135 horse Case. Long night and still have 2 straps that are permanently joined together.

Been around mud my whole life. There are two kinds of people; those who have been stuck and those that are going to be! Love your content.

Amazing that no one became the least bit frustrated or upset! Kudos to Lizzy, who isn't afraid to get her hands dirty!

I found this channel today and I can't get enough. I love it. All these guys look like nice,easy going wholesome people

Who ever does the editing does a really good job that makes it more fun to watch all the fun. Now everyone knows or should know that driving on a lake bed is not the best idea. Thanks to everyone for sharing these wild recoveries all in one location. And it was Lizzy that made sure it all worked out for the best. Carry on and have a great day.

What a fun time that was. The best times I ever had 4 wheeling was when I got stuck. You had to get stuck sooner or later to prove you can get yourself out one way or another. Don't be embarrassed. Own the moment. You're awesome at what you do.

I learned this lesson while walking in the very low Palisades Rez near Sterling...walking along a small feeder stream that was Rez banking when full and I dropped in the quicksand up to my waist in 1 second....guess I could have gone right down to the center of the earth if unlucky..no one around at all...I will never never never walk...drive..or even fly over a Rez , lake "Dry " area ever again....your friends are awesome....

Can't stop watching this channel. It's grown soooo much. Glad You tube community is behind Matt and the crew 100%. I hope to drive out to Utah and meet Matt and the gang soon it would be a great honor.

It's more entertaining when things go wrong, as long as no one gets hurt. Also, the correct vehicle for this recovery was the snowcat.

When plowing fields, if you get your tractor stuck, it's really stuck. Nothing short of a bulldozer can pull out a full size 4x4 tractor with dualies on front and back. Secret trick to save yourself; run a log underneath the machine in front of the back tire, wrap a chain around one end of the log then hook through the tractor rim, repeat samething on other end of log to the other back tire. Keeping a sharp eye on the log, try driving forward. The log will lift you out of the rut, but you can only do a half rotation so be prepared to repeat the whole process a dozen times. But it will get you out of that hole.

Matt, one of the best video recoveries yet, thanks for being honest about getting yourself into a unbelievable recovery.

Im always impressed by how calm Matt stays when things just go wrong. He would have made a great surgeon! Would the SnoCat have been an option for this kind of rescue?

Man's its absolutely crazy how fast your channel has grown. Congratulations man. Absolutely love the content!

Wishing the best for Matt and his Legal Situation. Some of the most hardworking folks ever. Love y'all and the channel

The longest recovery I have ever seen. Never to old to learn. Matt you and your friends rock, even in the mud. Loved this recovery of the recovery.

Anyone can make a mistake..its what you do with a mistake...you guys make the best of it...in every situation

Matt & crew - thanks for the entertainment! You guys are a blast.

Tucker, Colt, and Jefe had a fun trip out. The banter was good in this one.

New to your channel Can’t get enough though ! Love that your son & daughter help out ! Honesty and kindness There are no substitutes Keep it up ! Dave

Great job. I was expecting Lizzie to give Matt a shirt so he could hold it up and say "I made a call..."

As desperate as conditions become, you guys are always level headed and have a sense of humor!!!😃❤👍💯💪

"Did I just make a fool of myself?" Yes, but you have so much company, that no one will ever notice the addition of one more!

Great panoramic views,and pals helping each other out in a time of need. Great channel and a special group of people .

Think this might have been one of my favourite videos. Great to see everyone staying positive

Matt, you need to take along a tilting boat anchor when working in the bottomless sand and mud. Works great on the beach as well! (May need to winch out the anchor at the end, but it will give you some hope with your struggle along the way)

Awesome ‘recoveries’, plural! I’m hoping to get out your way soon just to shake your hand Matt. You, by far, have the best content. Everything about your team and extended family make me feel that life is still normal. It’s calming in a weird sort of way. 🙂 May God Bless all of you and keep you safe.

Its crazy to see how far yall have came I remember when I first started watching the camera crew was just that only filming now everyone just does everything together I love it. Keep up the great videos guys I watch them all.

Yep this was a good one. Thanks Matt, and your help, for keeping me entertained after work and my need to unwind You and your crew are the awesome. Your video crew is the best. (coming from an video and editer my self)

Next to Smarter Every Day, this is my favorite channel. It's very entertaining and I can learn a thing or two. The best part is that you guys have fun doing what you do, and you have fun doing it together. Added bonus for me: I get to add places to visit for my next road trip out there! I hit Toquerville Falls a couple of years ago and can't wait to go back.

Was kind of hoping Lizzy would offer Matt a shirt 😂

Matt, I am in awe at your humility. You are the most successful person I know and you are still very ready to admit your opps moments! Your humanity shows through> God Bless you and yours!

I'm a claims adjuster, recently handled one where a backhoe was attempting to pull out a stuck tractor with 120' of rope, similar to this. The mounting point on the stuck tractor gave way, and the shackle flew back to the backhoe with great force and precision, piercing the windshield of the backhoe and killing the operator with blunt force trauma. Be careful when towing with long lines.

Trevor needed to shake his fist and say, "Matthew!!"💪

"Dude Perfect, EAT YOUR HEART OUT!" 🤣🤣🤣 Loved it Trevor!

I been watching for a long long time and I’ve never see you stuck It happens to everyone now and again Just make a call !!!

No no .... you haven’t made a fool out of yourself 😊 , actually you’ve made just more great content for your viewers ! Dictionary covers the phrase “ sh**t happens “ as unpleasant things that sometimes happen in life ! It’s why we watch 😊 love it too !

To really complete the adventure and to close the loop, we needed the Razr to pull out Blue Steel!!!!!

Love Ya'll s crew adaptive way of doing things & Ya'll s attitude when it all goes south amazing where y'all just do what needs to be done. Awesome all the way around.

Dancing, rodeo, welding, recoveries and now wakeboarding. Lizzy really needs her own channel.

Have to laugh at Trevor. All I can think is that song sung to the that tune from Willy Wanka (old one). "Come with me, To a world of OSHA violations." 🤣 Been there Matt and crew. Got my tank recovery vehicle (M88A1) stuck in the same mud as the one we were going after for recovery. Lots of cable and snatch block stuff on that particular recovery. Big live audience too.

It's pronounced data. Love you guys. My partner often turns to me on the couch and asks "are you watching your recovery guy?". The answer is usually yes.

Happy for y’all! Recovery is growing in business and social media. Soon y’all will become a global name with hopefully a TV SHOW!!!

If you ask the question "Did I make a fool of myself?" You know the answer is yes. Getting mad at a situation doesn't help. You have to laugh it off. That's why I love watching your crew.

Even when things go bad...you guys still look like your having a lot of fun!

Line of the day. "Matt: Do you know why i sound defeated? Because I'm defeated....... Trevor: But your feet are right there". Lol

I was going to make a smart ass comment like “them sand tiers aint no good for muddn”. But when Jefe stepped through the surface at 8:04, I realized how soft and bottomless that stuff is! It’s almost as if it was a bottom of a lake! Awesome job you guys! How come Matt didn’t get a “I made a call” T-shirt? 😂

14:53 had me rolling 🤣 Someone mentioned this channel on a Facebook Tacoma page and I was instantly hooked!

Trevor had me dying riding up front ON lizzy trevor is a great person on the channel it sucks when he isnt there on the recoveries really great narration of the vids thanks for another great video gang 👍

These guys are just like one big happy family, and they make you feel like family, matt an Trevor is the kind of guys who I would hangout with
