Dude.... You hit the nail on the head.... Using junk to try and load junk. Normally that scenario works well, but not on this venture. Thanks for taking us along on this little adventure. Awesomeness!!
I felt said about truck driver, damage on trailer, stuck in there for hours. Time is money for them. I'm glad everyone is ok, using wrong equipment can cause more trouble esp if you dont have enough control on it. Backhoe worked longer than i expected, my bet was 20 sec on a hydrolic hose before it blow up, it was too small for that heavy machine. Actually real problem was those big tires which was working like shock absorber, machine was coming back when you push it. From a distance i got scared that moment smiles. Thanks guys..
you guys have the best personalities, and attitude. i operate heavy equipment and man, even if the skidder didnt fall of the trailer, most of the guys i work with would be so agitated at this point, cussing irately, yelling at people, throwing their hardhat, etc. i mean i guess you could be cutting that out in your video but i doubt it. you two are great at keeping your cool and just having a good time no matter what. i hope the rig driver doesnt charge you guys for the damage on his trailer... but i think he will, understandably
Oh Boy Hank!! Here's what we have folks! 1. Hazmat spill. 2. Trailer that needs tig welding. 3. Ford 555 hydrolic lines rebuilt. 4. Wylie needs a huge raise and two tubes of lenament for sore muscles 💪 😏. 5. The correct hydrolic manifold. 6. Brake cleaner with the correct spray caps. And I need to donate $$ because I've never laughed so hard. Love it. ❤️
That is what you call, ONE OF THOSE DAYS. Man, that was a chore and I bet an all day evet. At least it got loaded with minimal damage to things. God Bless
In the movie 'True Grit' John Wayne, and I don't recall why, had occasion to remark " That'll age ya"......I suspect that the Hamiltonville Farms guys could identify with that today..
Its good to see God’s people love Him and show it while having fun the ages bring memories when l was the of six retired group that adopted a younger kid
If that was my trailer and rig I'd have said nope not gonna haul it and charged to get the trailer fixed. Or have the person who bought the skidded to pay for the damages if insurance won't cover it. Some DOT officers would put it out of commission.
Good Morning Brothers Thank You For Your Service that was Awesome Lol I Love All Your videos been a plumber 40 years had A wrench in hand since that first smell of gas give me an old Chevy or a Harley I could fix it blind folded Your teaching alot of New invaluable information Thanks Hank & Wiley Peace ,& Grease
Man, that dudes trailer got mangled. lol Sucks when something that heavy and awkward falls off a trailer!! Good job getting it on there in the end. Was the driver ticked about the trailer? Thanks for the video, really enjoyed it!
If it was his trailer I'm sure he was mad, who wouldn't be honestly? Mistakes happen though so either way not much they could do other than offer to fix it lol 🤷
That poor Tralier XD Crazy Wiley haha Some land development was happening 10 mins from my house & I could hear a roaring Skidder they are loud at wide open throttle.
Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable. Wow. Wow. Wow. My hat is off to all of you. That was a very difficult job with the equipment you had to work with. Do appreciate the fact you all kept at until you got it. Congratulations to all of you for getting the job done. Hank and Wiley need a few cool ones after all of that. You both take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for everything. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
Hank, did you let Elvis drive? 2nd smart crack: That's gonna leave a mark. It amazes me how Wiley can always find a vehicle to drive. At every location, no matter how far out in the woods they are. As always, all the best to everyone. Chef Scott 👩🍳
Great job, not easy trying to load heavy equipment, without the the correct equipment, but persistent prevales, all the best to yous and your loved ones
What a day is right, I think I would have used the clam to grab around the hanging tire and lifted it with more control. But I enjoyed watching you and Willy. Brings back the memories of my bad days.
Hi from uk guys👋👍 my oh my that old girl did not want to leave that farm thats for sure🙈 pleased nobody got hurt tho and inly thing hurt was pride and the trailer both repairable with a will it run and a welder😂👌 the branson would of made light work of that one tho hank👍 always one as they say and friday the 13th too 😱 but thanks for your time and be safe see you soon guys👍👋
Excellent video Hank :) also crew plus take lots skills and thinking to loaded up trailers! Glad nobody got hurt too and excellent job guys on team work!
wow! what a nightmare! also very lucky pushing with the corner of the blade like that it easily could have punctured the skidder tire. glad you got it loaded! too bad there was damage to the trailer!
Looked like the truck driver had already destroyed a good trailer by using it for something it wasnt intended for and then to push that skidder off the side and do serious damage to the trailer. Its no laughing matter. No equipment should be treated that way.
I would assume he is a hot shot driver. Picks up different stuff and not the same thing, just a guess. I I haul the same thing everyday though. Junk A/C units that comes off of rooftops but they get loaded with a crane
Another trick for centering a dead machine on a trailer like you were doing there. If it needs to go toward the driver side of the trailer run a chain across the trailer to the passenger side of the machine so you can t make it go any further that way and lift the driver side of the machine and put a half sheet of plywood under the tire. Then go to the passenger side and lift and push. Put the chain across the trailer from the pass side of trailer to driver side of machine with however much slack you want to move it over then push it over. The tire on the plywood will slide easily so you don t have to push as hard and the chain won t let you go too far. It's kinda like long pants put that stuff in the pickup when you go so you will have it if you need it.
You should always have a plastic bin (tote) with extra cloths shorts, genes, underwear, socks, rain gear, towels, snacks, bug spray and so on. Makes life easier. 👍 😎
Guys I've gotta take a break after watching this lol. Hey I know what you went through though. I've been there myself working for the County Road Dept. Weve had some debacles
howboutcha !!!the shorts are a good plan to get out of weed whackin hank 👌 cant be much of any fluid left in those machines looking at the blacktop 😅😅😅
Hi Hank Hey Wiley Great Videos As Always HEY Hank Now That You Have a Table Now what do you think "Wiley" needs to bring "Lunch" Ha ha Aurora, Ohio Thanks
Wiley, I think you need to keep some coveralls in your truck for Hank to wear when he shows up in shorts and says he can’t do anything because he wore shorts.
Old Wally really made a mess of that one I was thinking all along why didn’t they just drag it back off and start again And then they did At least you got there in the end There never an easy job some days hey hank 👍👍👍
Ya know, if you brought a come a long and chains you could pull that grapple claw up into a usable position for moving. The blade also. BTW, that trailer could use a few more deck boards. lol
wow what a great video.. i know it must have been very frustrating tho..wiley trying to load it while having no brakes, and the other guy that came to help and the driver too..wow if i could..i would take all you guys out for a steak dinner..well done hank.
I normally like watching your “will it starts” but not this one. Your lucky the drop deck driver didn’t beat you all to death tearing up his equipment. What a hair ball operation. And your nonchalant attitude over damaging his equipment disgusts me. If this had been my rig I would have told you all to get f--‘d. If you don’t have the proper means to do this stuff then you shouldn’t be doing it. Especially when others people’s equipment and livelihood.are involved. You’ve easily cost that driver several days worth of repairs and loss of revenue just on the obvious side rail damage. Who knows what other damage may have occurred to the frame and suspension and deck. Trailers aren’t designed for such abuse.
absolutely agree heavy rescue tow guys would have put that machine on in no time and without the damage, and they're not crazy expensive either. i'm also disgusted with this loading, and of course doubt and extra money was offered to the driver
Oh boy ! Trying to do those manuvers with machines that size , that are not fully functional very dangerous, thankfully no other traffic. Central California Watching
▶️Watch us load another skidder here: th-cam.com/video/LEx3zlM-lb0/w-d-xo.html
Awesome cool 🆒️ 😎 👍
yo that's insane love your videos there so cool
I like the skidders there my favourite vehicle

Hydraulic hoses on backhoes don’t blow from overloading them. The systems have built in bypasses. They will only pull what they will pull.
you guys have the best personalities, and attitude. i operate heavy equipment and man, even if the skidder didnt fall of the trailer, most of the guys i work with would be so agitated at this point, cussing irately, yelling at people, throwing their hardhat, etc. i mean i guess you could be cutting that out in your video but i doubt it. you two are great at keeping your cool and just having a good time no matter what. i hope the rig driver doesnt charge you guys for the damage on his trailer... but i think he will, understandably
Oh Boy Hank!!
Here's what we have folks!
1. Hazmat spill.
2. Trailer that needs tig welding.
3. Ford 555 hydrolic lines rebuilt.
4. Wylie needs a huge raise and two tubes of lenament for sore muscles 💪 😏.
5. The correct hydrolic manifold.
6. Brake cleaner with the correct spray caps.
And I need to donate $$ because I've never laughed so hard.
Love it. ❤️
That is what you call, ONE OF THOSE DAYS. Man, that was a chore and I bet an all day evet. At least it got loaded with minimal damage to things. God Bless
He sounds just like my grandpa I have been listening to my whole life.
💥 There’s one for the blooper real. Ouch!
*Keep on tractoring!*
They knocked hell out of that trailer.
In the movie 'True Grit' John Wayne, and I don't recall why, had occasion to remark " That'll age ya"......I suspect that the Hamiltonville Farms guys could identify with that today..
It is very difficult to work with old machines. You do a very big work and effort👍
That was a challenging day, but the good thing is that the mission was accomplished and no one got hurt! God bless and stay safe!
Y’all are like pit bulls…….there’s no give up when you bite down on something.Hats off to you fellas 😁😁
Its good to see God’s people love Him and show it while having fun the ages bring memories when l was the of six retired group that adopted a younger kid

We love wiley he always adds excitement to the game plan .
It’s like watching skidder square dancing! 🤣
Yeah the float driver looks really impressed 😮
I know that was a right headache but you all had me in stitches I think u needed a wider trailer but was great to watch
Good morning Hank & Wiley
boy that just turned into a train wreck lol got it done though!
A monkey and a football come to mind 😂
That poor Tralier XD Crazy Wiley haha Some land development was happening 10 mins from my house & I could hear a roaring Skidder they are loud at wide open throttle.
Fantastic job tearing up the taxpayers road and the drivers flatbed.
That looked like fun! lol
What a treat,hank n wiley at it again,that could've gone horribly wrong,mechanical failures always mess situations up but it got done
Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable.
Wow. Wow. Wow. My hat is off to all of you. That was a very difficult job with the equipment you had to work with.
Do appreciate the fact you all kept at until you got it. Congratulations to all of you for getting the job done.

Thanks For Another Good & Entertaining Video Hank& Crew
Thanks for watching!
Wow! That was a knucklebiter 😅😅 Good work fellas!
What a day is right, I think I would have used the clam to grab around the hanging tire and lifted it with more control. But I enjoyed watching you and Willy. Brings back the memories of my bad days.
We tried that in the video.
Hi from uk guys👋👍 my oh my that old girl did not want to leave that farm thats for sure🙈 pleased nobody got hurt tho and inly thing hurt was pride and the trailer both repairable with a will it run and a welder😂👌 the branson would of made light work of that one tho hank👍 always one as they say and friday the 13th too 😱 but thanks for your time and be safe see you soon guys👍👋

also very lucky pushing with the corner of the blade like that it easily could have punctured the skidder tire.
glad you got it loaded! too bad there was damage to the trailer!
What can go wrong will go wrong, but you got it corrected and get it done right. I did all the yelling and swearing for ya😂👍☮️
Lol. Thank you
My dad usta say," that was like watching a cow have a calf", hahaha Hank the play by play was funny. God bless yall
Ouch that poor trailer, that all was hard to watch bro with my head shak'n side to side. Safe travels
It was not a fun day
Well today at hamiltonville farm we learned that there is more than one way to load a skidder the right way and the wrong way .
Yeah, that was a tough one.
Better than any football moderator... 😁 Next time better use a massive winch. 💪 Or making oil... 😁
Nice to have clean gloves. Stay safe.
I like your comment, using junk to load junk. I've been down that road before. But no matter how tough you manage to get the job done.
This is why I love crawler loaders..
Clint Eastwood in the film "Hamberger Hill" alluded to this same operation as a C.F. Glad you pulled it off .... and on. Narragansett Bay
Great video Hank & Wiley 😎👍
Man, I was rootin’ for you guys! What an accomplishment considering the tools!
Wow Hank!!! This one was stressful. Glad it finally got loaded.
Thanks Hank and Wiley for a job well done you guys never have up thanks again
Looked like the truck driver had already destroyed a good trailer by using it for something it wasnt intended for and then to push that skidder off the side and do serious damage to the trailer. Its no laughing matter. No equipment should be treated that way.

Hahahahaha
Yall stay safe, that could have went really bad in a hurry. Glad yall got it on there though.
👍👍
When pushing to the side a chain can limit how far the equipment slides.
Wow ! I was throw my arms up in the air to say stop ! Sucks that all that happened but you gotter done. Good video .
Wow what a might mare Willey comes good again 👍
Wiley can not be stopped ! I think we have all had these days… you can move mountains if you have faith !
Use the grapple, grab around the tire and raise up. Use another machine to slide it over. Been there done that lol.
I felt bad for you guys but you got it loaded nobody got hurt really appreciate the videos buddy 👍
What a work up Hank got there in the end good job 👍
Well that sure turned into a heck of a mess! Atleast yall got it done and it was entertaining for the viewers!
Awesome Channel 👍. Keep up the awesome videos and Be safe out there y'all.
God bless 🇺🇸....

I would have told y'all to get that junk off my trailer, and hit the road!
Lol
Look like your going to have to call Ron Pratt to help haha
lovely video just proving everything is not straight forward, loved Wiley's comment of "you just hold the camera Hank"
Guys I've gotta take a break after watching this lol. Hey I know what you went through though. I've been there myself working for the County Road Dept. Weve had some debacles
That was so different never seen that before loved it but damaged the trailer almost didn't pay to move the thing.
howboutcha !!!the shorts are a good plan to get out of weed whackin hank 👌 cant be much of any fluid left in those machines looking at the blacktop 😅😅😅
Hi Hank Hey Wiley Great Videos As Always HEY Hank Now That You Have a Table Now what do you think "Wiley" needs to bring "Lunch" Ha ha Aurora, Ohio Thanks
Lol
Wiley, I think you need to keep some coveralls in your truck for Hank to wear when he shows up in shorts and says he can’t do anything because he wore shorts.
Lol
My heart dropped when it fell poor old Machine
That's OK Wily will trim the hair off your legs with the weed eater 😂😂😂
What a drama... 😁 That's better than Hollywood
No wonder Wiley looks beat!. Hank- when you were giving us the play-by-play you sounded exactly like Larry the Cable Guy!!! LOL
Gm hank from west Alabama love y’all
Morning Jamie! Thanks buddy
Nothing to be proud off.
That beast just didnt wanna go kinda like it was saying it wanted to stay lol
Old Wally really made a mess of that one
I was thinking all along why didn’t they just drag it back off and start again
And then they did
At least you got there in the end
There never an easy job some days hey hank 👍👍👍
Ya know, if you brought a come a long and chains you could pull that grapple claw up into a usable position for moving. The blade also. BTW, that trailer could use a few more deck boards. lol
Great team work !!
Love from the UK
My boy my boy ⚡️ That was crazy
very good job and God bless yall
Best vid u ever made time get done ur owe the state for road damage
The road commissioner wants to see you guys. 😳
Wow. That poor truck drivers trailer. I hope he was compensated for the damages.
wow what a great video.. i know it must have been very frustrating tho..wiley trying to load it while having no brakes, and the other guy that came to help and the driver too..wow if i could..i would take all you guys out for a steak dinner..well done hank.
so did yall fix the man's trailer??
Hindsight being 20/20 some ratcheting binders on the chains would have let you steer the dead skidder. Just something for your playbook next time.
Right on
I normally like watching your “will it starts” but not this one. Your lucky the drop deck driver didn’t beat you all to death tearing up his equipment. What a hair ball operation. And your nonchalant attitude over damaging his equipment disgusts me.

That old skidder isn't ready to leave its resting place
Muito bom ver esses maquinários antigos
The 648h is a single arch
Yeah I misspoke.
Oh boy !
Trying to do those manuvers with machines that size , that are not fully functional very dangerous, thankfully no other traffic.
Central California Watching
Great video. Highly entertaining!
Nice video!
I cringed when I saw that poor trailer..glad it was not mine..🤣
Watch out for them snakes, yall are brave mthrs.
