Major Rollover - Big Rig Lands on a Fire Hydrant (Rotator Recovery). This tractor with a loaded container rolled over right at the intersection of Atlantic and Firestone. We didn't realize it until it was time to lift, but the tractor landed perfectly on a fire hydrant, which made us have to do a little bit of a game plan change. On top of that, the container landed against the world's strongest street light, literally bending the container in the middle.
This made uprighting it tricky, since a straight upright would further damage the pole. To counter this, we first rigged to the top holes, then went up and in to pull it away and off the pole. Form here, it was show time. Hulk and Big Flipper, assisted by Mark at Mr. C's Tow in the front, got this back on its wheels. Unfortunately, it's never that easy, and we encountered a pretty bad load shift that we had to correct just enough to allow this unit to be towed away.
