I screwed up big time. Broken and stuck alone in the mountains 

Time stuck in the woods beats time spent in the office any day... Glad you're safe!

Your positivity and community contributions is what keeps a lot of us coming back. Glad to see you're blocking off the jerkwads.

Casey, I'm 80, but my mind is still 18! Love your attitude and lifestyle and kindness to others ... so keep your adventures coming! And you ARE good at this!

Negative people are always negative about everything, it’s very rare that they will change. I hurt for them, life is to short to go through it being unhappy. I love your channel and your attitude, thanks for sharing with all of us. Take care, stay safe.

"I never said I was good at this" is the theme of my life Casey. Like you I did the best I could and tried to have fun along the way. Really enjoy you sharing your adventures with us. Keep up the good work and the great attitude!

Saved yourself, Casey. Good job. Very important to be able to get off the mountain if you get hurt, sick...or if you hear banjos.

The ironic thing is Casey... You Actually did make a "if you're stranded and broke down " video. I personally have done what you did, but instead of doing the Smart thing and trying to get back when things went sideways...I stayed and continued...which made Everything Worse. Stuck in the mountains, by myself, no one knew Where I was, no way to communicate, and I didn't have a spare tire or fuel. I wound up having to hike several miles in the dark, with a rifle slung, in the winter time, to the first house I came across. Fortunately I did make back to the base I was stationed at (Fairchild)...5am. Friends help me get my rig back the following day

Casey, for the life of me I can not understand why anyone would belittle another person making a video. These are your experiences not ours, we are just the viewers, & everyone has had experiences that didn't go as planned, & hopefully we have learned from our mistakes, and from others like yourself. I and my wife enjoy your content and wish you and yours all the BEST!!

My best friend and i also got stuck in the woods last week. Broken axle shaft took hours to repair. Made a short video of it of my channel. It sucked but we got it fixed and drove it home 75 miles.

That's one thing about break downs you never know when they are going to happen! Good job getting yourself back to a paved road!

Casey's positive attitude is great 👍

Finally somebody who actually knows how to use momentum. I see so many people who drive who don't know that momentum is your friend. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Like Ron Pratt tells it. There are many ways to get to 10. Everyone makes mistakes. I've gotten my wrecker stuck a couple times. Things break. People get in over their head before they know it. One curve to many and your done. It happens. Most people feel bad enough just let it be and enjoy the video. Learn things of what not to do or what to do. Keep up the good work Casey.

And that is what I am most impressed with about you, Casey, you have the opportunity to be so judgemental about your clients but never are. We all make mistakes and we all over-estimate our own abilities from time to time, but then learn from those mistakes and we grow and you get the opportunity to learn and get better at what you do! More power to you sir!

I’m sixty, just ran across your channel and wanted to say , we’ll done! I’ve done stuff like this in my youth and I wouldn’t have changed a thing about any of my experiences. They are what’s shaped me into who I am and qualifies me to say “ well done” to those who need to hear it. This is good quality content. I sent it to my 26 yr old son , who knows as well these wonderful times that will be so sweet when you young Bucks get to be like us “ wall hangers “ full of advice. Great Job and Thanks again. Kelly

That was almost really bad. Glad you made it out fine. Any adventure you can return from and tell the tale of is a good one in my book.

This is the PERFECT time to do the video while stuck in the middle of nowhere. It's an authentic situation of what could and can happen. You're just afraid of being alone in the woods after dark and bigfoot finding you.

I remember one time when my neighbor got her self stuck in her driveway got out with the tires spinning and locked the door. Lol the car was just sitting there for 45 minutes until her husband came home with the extra key. So classic 🤣

You didn't mess up ... you created an opportunity to add to your experience. You said you were gonna get you out, and you did. Good recovery! Take care Casey .... have a nice weekend🚙🚙

Casey, excellentpoints about just keeping it civil. You should rename this "Zen and the Art of Heavy Rescue". Keep up the great work - we love it!!

Thanks for sharing Casey. You're going to find so many negitive people making comments. I really like FadRats, Paul and Michelle, going over the contancerous comments they get. Name of the person doing it and just letting us all have some laughs at the expense of the low lifes. Keep up the good work and keep the videos coming. Your doing a great job. Look forward to you heading down and give Matt a hand on his new wreaker.

Of course you know this was the result of having those tracks on, which increased the stress on a lot of suspension points. It just figures it would wait 'til you took them off before it broke! Although maybe that's a good thing, given what happened.

I like what you do and say. Your videos are great and I enjoy your comments. I specially enjoy that you block armchair bullies.

That’s the best part about your channel and I’m sure other people say the same thing. Casey is because you do things your way the way you want whether it’s the right way or the wrong way you know what’s gonna happen you pretty much know what the outcomes gonna be and who gives a shit sorry for the swearword. I’m 71 years old. I’m a female. I love this. You are my favorite channel. I would never give up watching you because you are so much fun. You got a great sense of humor. Personally, I don’t ever want to see you leave this channel ever ever ever ever, you make my day every single day

This is why your channel is one of my favorites. I just never know what's coming. 😂 Seriously, it's just real and fun.

Another typical day in the mountains. Lol! You never know what to expect. Good job being prepared and coping with the situation. Main thing is you will arrive home safe. Equipment can be repaired.👍👍

This is the best way to get stuck in the snow. Went through it twice in my 98 zj. Snowed in overnight -7. Glad I had a big dog to share a sleeping bag with

So sorry about Negative Nellies! You are so amazing! Keep doing what you are doing! Real life can not be scripted. Anybody who comments without taking that into account deserves to be blocked. Don't change what you do. Thank you!

Nice work recovering yourself Casey! You need to stop breaking stuff. Leeping the jeep is always fun! Hope your jaw is doing better. Thanks for showing how a positive attitude always improves the situation. I can't believe you shattered that shaft and did not grenade that transfer case.

Casey, shit happens out on the trails...it's how you get out of the situation that matters. Getting home is the end goal...no matter how ya gotta do it.

It's always nice to go an adventure but sometimes Murphy wants to come as well. Stay positive & keep smiling, have a nice day.

Casey, the grin on your face when you made it out of the snow and you said that a wasn't good made me laugh. You enjoyed the challenge. And you got home safely. Good for you.

A really good lesson to learn for a lot of us . Thanks Casey . ( and yes , I learned something , too . )

The right way , is the way that means everyone ends home safe. That was a fun ride, thanks for sharing.

I think some of us that watch your videos regularly worry that someday on one of your trips alone into the woods to help someone that tragedy and disaster will strike you. So go well prepared and be safe in those woods.

Momma always said if you can't say anything nice don't say anything. Really love your attitude towards others. Keep up the great work.

Awesome 👍😎 video. Not being full-blown mechanic or anything I always learn a lot from you! I love it when I see people out in the woods just having fun trying their best with what they have. Thank you so much Casey for your comments. Once in college I went elk hunting with a friend overnight. We camped by a river the fog rolled in that morning and as luck would have it we ended up taking a young bull elk! When we were trying to break it down to get it into the vehicle my Saw broke so we couldn't break it all down. Finally got myself my buddy all of our camping gear and supplies and the Bull elk in our vehicle. When we pulled into the butcher shop, we got in line with all the big rigs and outfits and the butcher came out and saw our vehicle with the Bull elk looking at him through the front seat passenger window, He whooped and he hollered slapping his leg, "If that ain't the most huntinest vehicle I've ever seen!" It was a 75 manual Toyota Corolla. I could get all five gears but I had to reach up underneath the rib cage to shift. We drove that thing bottomed out for 2 hours back to the butcher shop the Bull elk looking out the window at everyone people were laughing and giving us a thumbs up. My buddy? He was smaller than I was lean and mean and we had a small cubicle behind my seat for him to sit. The Bull road shotgun.

I love your view on life and living Casey and of course i love the videos. "That wasn't a part of the plan" moment was awesome. And yes, it was all fun no matter what happened. Keep up the awesome work my friend. Peace.

“Adventure “ that’s what it is. Overcoming adversity is what makes good stories.

I think it's great that people go out and explore, and if they don't have to much experience then this is how they gain it. Nobody's a trail master there first or 20th time.

When things don't go as planned, adapt and overcome. The worst thing to do is stress over something you cannot control. Take a deep breath and clear the mind, then access the situation at hand.

Give us a video on making the repairs. Always interested in how you approach the repairs and reasoning behind it.

Am happy for your successful self rescue. It was fun "being with you" on your way out.

From the comfort of my couch, blanket & cozy home, I ENJOYED this! You may “not be good at this,” but you’ve got me fooled! Love it - love that you love what you’re doing -- even if you’re not good at it! LOL!

I absolutely enjoy watching you overcome the challenges. It’s just good fun to watch how you overcame this challenge in this video. It really demonstrates how everyone who ventures out should be prepared for any unexpected challenge. Love the channel

I started carrying an old Yoga mat with me on my outings - just in case I needed to get under my rig like you did. The mat works wonders for keeping the dirt and grime off my clothing (for the most part), and since it rolls up nice and small, it doesn't take up any room or weight that much. Love your outlook when things happen - keep the positive look! (I do have to wonder - how much of this do you tell your wife afterwards?? She has to just shake her head after some of the antics :-) )

after a weekend with power outages post Derecho in Ottawa dodging people who don't know every intersection is a 4 way stop when lights are out.... it was great now that power is back on to see some controlled chaos where the person was someone who I can trust to make the right decisions in the wrong circumstances... thanks for another lesson in getting out of trouble!

First thing, Love your positive attitude you always have Casey! Second, you addressing the trolls is a mark of a good human being.Third, way to turn the challenge you faced around to something fun to watch. And lastly…just noticed I was “magically unsubscribed”, just bought you should know…other You Tubers have been mentioning this phenomena lately…do want your viewers to miss out unnecessarily!! Keep up the fun content…and Thank You!!

Reminds me of Matt Baja ing through the sand in 2WD lol keep doing what you’re doing I’ll keep watching

Casey, love watching how you solve problems and explain what you are doing. My husband also watches your channel and says he is jealous of how you can do things. He is very handy himself but we're not so young anymore and things seem to take more effort.

Found your channel recently. My husband and I enjoy your channel. I'm amazed you got it out great job.

Casey, I don’t 4 wheel but love watching you help folks and take it all in stride. Your a good man ! If I was stuck off road you would be the Man I would call my friend. Stay safe !

Awesome driving skills Casey! I could tell because I started getting a little carsick just watching! I always learn something from your videos.

Casey, love your videos! And you are an amazing person, love your attitude! Glad you got out by yourself and safely! Glad you were equipped to take care of yourself. Stay safe and healthy, see you in the next one!

Who do you call when broken down, in the woods, all alone? Casey's Heavy Rescue....oh wait! Yeah, that worked out and really convenient that you took yourself along for the rescue. I'd have probably panicked, cussed, and hoped nobody hears about it when it was over. Loving your videos and the scenery is awesome!

Well done Casey. Any landing that I walk away from with out using any bandaids and peroxide is a good landing😂😂😂❤

Dude I love your videos and how kind hearted you are! Keep it up, one day I'll be able to come out and help out in one of the big events y'all have for the community! Until then, I'll keep watching!

Casey, the man that never made a mistake, never made anything, You're doing good my friend.

It's that old saying "if you can't sat something nice keep your bazoo shut" love your videos and your advice

In my book, it was a successful trip, nobody got hurt, was able to get off Mountain/woods, and got back home in a still moving vehicle. Plus breathing all that fresh outside air is a win win.

Didn't go well but always an adventure!

Love your adventures, Casey! You're the best!

ItchyBoots riding Alaska to Alaska...doin it the way they do it. The joy is the personalities and their best efforts to provide us knowledge & entertainment...keep it up Casey. Thx!

Most of my memorable outdoor adventures resulted from things that didn't go as planned. Being able to adapt is essential. Having a great woman along who shares the same sense of adventure is more so.

Thanks for taking us along, and showing us when things don't go as planned as well. Such is life. How're you liking the CO2 cylinder, vs. an air compressor?

Just hit like before I watch it, because Casey’s videos are always great!

I enjoyed that ride off the mountain Casey. That went exactly like some of my adventures go.

Alone up there in the wilderness....your mind is strong, my friend.

Casey....I would have done it the same way you did it... Because that's how we learn... Casey you did great recovering yourself... P.s. Would a larger or more powerful alternator be ideal for your set up...???? Love your videos, Keep em coming....!!!!

Pretty sure HeavyD said you broke that on purpose so you could get more RU-vid views...🤣😂🤣

Casey, this video is how life is. Be flexible, because life will throw you curve balls and you will need to adapt and overcome. Good job!!!

My 1st time watching you. The only thing i saw as a problem was, You knowing you had a bad Alternator. And went out anyway.

Dang, you've got a long bracket with a hydraulic ram pushing on it. That's a lot of leverage to break things! Is there any way to strengthen the bracket so it's stronger than the ram? Loved the escape. It was a nice ride-along until my next wheeling adventure.

10 mm

LMAO!!! The slo=mo at the end cracked me up! Glad you didn't slam the tree...

Having lived in The Rocky Mountains in the 1970s in Colorado it is fun an instructive watcing your videos. At the time I had 1975 Jeep pickup and my husband had an 1975 International Pickup.

“… if you can’t be nice, you don’t need to be here….” 👍👍👍👌

I have to laugh when you say, “that was not part of the plan”. Who are you trying to shit? You never have a plan. You’re a good guy Casey. Keep up the good work. Enjoy the heck out of your videos.

As long as you are enjoying what you do an not hurting anyone it doesn't matter what other people think

Just keep doing what makes you happy Casey you will never please the fun police of this planet. From down under God bless.

You never have to work because you love what you do. I so enjoy all the videos

Let us be honest. You looked like you were having a ball hooning there, even if you did get nervous a couple of times. Well done.

Your back home and safe that's all that matters Casey, there are some that would have left there vehicle and walked out. You adapted and drove your self out. Good job!

Flexibility isn't just a good attribute for a water hose. I enjoy watching Casey's videos, He made a plan, circumstances occurred, so the plan changed. Did it ruin his day? Nah. Did it screw up everything? Nah. Did he assess his situation, and lay out a couple of courses of action to move past the situation and get back to where he wanted to be? Yep! You don't have to be good at, all the time, you just have to keep trying, and keep learning. And I just love the views.

Casey, This vid was great, I really enjoyed it. My 4 rules about offroading , #1 never go alone (be it one person and or one truck) #2 Never go at night in temps you could freeze to death. #3 never go unprepared such as a non 4 wheel drive vehicle in mud , sand, snow and without a winch, shovel, ropes, chains, tug ropes, tools, food water, blankets, etc. #4 never drink alcohol of any type while offroading and break rules #1-3 I know these rules because I have broke them all when I was young and foolish. LOL. Lucky me I learn from my mistakes and bring a map.

Casey, You are the MacGyver of off road recovery.

Great video!👍😎 Mean people suck😊 Just keep doing what you are doing! God bless and stay safe out there! ❤️🙏

Looks good to me…you’re still alive. I’ve dropped drive lines, transfer cases and burned up transmissions. You just do what you gotta do. The ride out looked really fun.

Casey you've said many, many times that you have the best job with the best office. So I guess a horrible day in the woods is better than a great day in the office doesn't apply to you. Because you never leave your office.

When I said I bet you are going to get a bunch of rescues on Cascade Lakes Hwy, I honestly wasn’t thinking it’d be you

Great video ! So not a video about how to survive a night ? But an excellent example of why the winch is your friend for self rescue. I've been in SAR in the mountains for 30yrs and I appreciate that you are educating folks on being prepared .

Well you said you wanted to make a survival video. I think you succeeded. Just not the “disaster” you were planning. Vehicle breakdown is a biggy too. Well done!!

I enjoy your posts, I feel Mr Grumpy is your best sidekick. How he works with you is a big plus.

It is okay Casey! Hindsight is 20/ 20 is what I was told as a young man.

I am always amazed at how resourceful you are. You can get droped into about any mess and come out on top. Good job.

Casey everyone make mistakes and getting stuck you got out. I thought I was hard on trucks, but you top that and you have fun doing it. As far as negative people they like to stir the pot, and you have a choice of dumping the pot out and move on. And you do be happy and I am glad your safe. Blessings

When you slipped and almost fell, I was kinda expecting you to yell "TREVOR!"

PLEASE DO NOT QUIT HAVING FUN!

Good to see Casey knows how to drive like an Australian, on the correct side of the road, and flatout!

Just keep making the quality, entertaining content and providing the services to the people you do. It’s way too easy to be a Monday morning quarterback.
