Watching the 2 taters and the wrecker working in concert is like watching an intricate dance - real beauty in motion. Watching the young fellow stand on the duals of the twisted frame as he tries to pry it away from the container was like watching a guy stand on a branch as he saws it away from the trunk. I'm glad that lock didn't turn loose.
I always worry about you guys when you are up on the containers rigging or in this case trying to get that lock to play, (camera makes it look worse) couple times i thought you were going over Alex. Great job boys, stay safe.
I am suitably IMPRESSED!!! It all comes down to the physics of it. Great job, and ingenious thought process that went into curing the problem. Sure shows why you are the leader (next to Dad of course!). Brightest of Blessings! Keep up the good work!
okay I have never been so stressed out watching!!!!! I am so glad everything worked out! and I totally get it y'all did what you had to do with how things were! JOSH! ALEX! HECTOR! WAY TO GO! YOU GOT THE JOB DONE AS SAFELY AS YOU COULD!!! PLEASE BE CAREFUL OUT THERE! Y'ALL ARE WORTH MORE THAN THAN A BUSTED UP RIG!!! THANKS FOR SHARING AND KEEPIN IT REAL! 😅😊
Hey Pepe's towing service! Great vid man thanks a pile for posting it! Love the insta360 footage from the boom! Freedom of camera angle after its recorded is amazing! Stay safe! Ride ride ride!
I've never seen that many armchair quarter backs ! I knew that you would get this . There's no job you can't do ! That was a cliffhanger for sure . Great video .
I'm trying to understand the damage to the truck. Did he roll onto his side, slide a ways, then flip partially back up and onto the barrier, or was this his second accident of the day, and the scrapes were from an earlier rollover?
THe 360 on the boom really showed the forces ( is torsion the correct word to use) at play both on the boom and cables themselves but also on the container and chassis when manoeuvring it.
When Alex was topside trying to pry that jammed lock off the container while standing on the trailer, I was worried it might suddenly give and throw him off. There was too much torsion on that trailer. Luckily it stayed stuck while he was up there. BE CAREFUL!
Another great video I had forgotten about. Putting the container back on the chassis was awesome. I'll bet you ran a couple of miles during the recovery. You both were great. Thanks for the video and the editing.
Good job crew, that was a fist full of anxious moments ! I like the way you can climb that container at the rear, even in my youth that alone would be a challenge! (for me)
For stuck pins I have a flatbed bar with the square head I hook the bar around the handle and lean on it I'm 350 lbs and it's a 40" bar. Love 💓 your videos.
Looked like you was removing tractor trailer from turn one of a Nascar track. Quite an angle the ramp was and leveling the truck from the rear. Good job with the crew working together.
Alex is probably lucky that pin DIDN'T come out. I could just see the chassis unwinding and throwing him right over that wall when he was standing on the tire...😳
That is correct and why all the comments saying just cut it are not smart. With a slightly offset vertical line and the deck winch pulling it, the chassis wouldn’t recoil that bad. But seeing how stuck it was, I did not want to take that chance. It’s hard to hear but I say just that in the video , that it’s too dangerous which is why I made the call to upright it and set it back on instead of splitting
No problem for The hawk and big flipper They get the job done with no problem at all specific Josh and his crew always on seeing always doing a good job and In California All the place you see the biggest names It's pepe towing
I hope you guys do your refresher course on unleashing potential energy. Trying to disengage the chassis from the container while standing on the tire was putting your life in danger. You’re lucky that it didn’t come loose. The twisted chassis was under tons of pressure and your skull is not a steel ball. It could have been smashed on the other lane into a thousand pieces
You fail to realize the beginning of my channel I was the same. People told me "I don't know what's going on, talk more and explain ". So I did and the channel blew up. But regardless, thanks for watching lol I'll tell Alex you said hi
Lmfaooooo bro wants to talk about sus???? I have zero comment, just tell your parents I feel sorry for them for raising this th-cam.com/users/shortsqCAsPdeUgS4?si=PpFMBjaz6lkC8M7h
What port is this at? Long Beach? Love the videos! Maybe include a brief message about where these recoveries were located. That would be awesome. Keep up the good work!
8:30 - Alex is a BEAST! Look at him out there working that cheater bar like it's a wiffle ball bat. Then he follows it up with a Mr. Miyagi balance challenge!
Have you considered carrying something like a plasma cutter on the truck? Obviously would probably only be key in situations like this but when you do use it, it would probably be worth it's weight in gold to simplify things
Is it possible that you can get the trailer lifted up and pulled back to get the truck off the wall? The damage is already done, so I don’t think it will matter what happens to the trailer.
With the rotator on the front, had you slid the front of the box towards the chassis, while keeping the chassis tight to the rear of the container, it should have released the tension on the locking pin. I haul and lift containers regularly, the slightest tension will bind those rear pins.
Awesome video Josh , you made that difficult recovery look easy Question though !! .. could you have used a Sawzall or chop saw to cut that damaged pin ???
Would be nice to have a good sized plasma cutter and a carbon tourch for making a job faster but it would cost money to have a service truck with it. Maybe it would be defendable cost
All due a stupid lock dude. That must of being frustrating however you guys one of the best when it comes to recovery and videos on youtube. Great video guys
This one actually had me nervous. If that container had broken loose from the single lock while trying to upright it that would’ve been a very nasty swing.
Watching the 2 taters and the wrecker working in concert is like watching an intricate dance - real beauty in motion. Watching the young fellow stand on the duals of the twisted frame as he tries to pry it away from the container was like watching a guy stand on a branch as he saws it away from the trunk.

Is it nice that Los Angeles supplies you with plenty of crazy drivers to keep you busy. great video as always.
Even though this lift was a difficult one due to that damaged lock, you guys still made it look easy.
Crazy how that one pesky lock made hard work of an otherwise straight-forward job.
Dude seriously freeclimbed that container. That's impressive!
I know, right?
These dudes do that all the time and it blows me away.
Beautiful job re-mounting the container on a twisted chassis. Well done Josh and Alex!
Always love to hear Alex’s soft spoken voice, that stays the same even under a stressful situation.❤ Thanks for another great video, gentlemen!
Tough job by some really professional tow drivers working together.
I am suitably IMPRESSED!!! It all comes down to the physics of it. Great job, and ingenious thought process that went into curing the problem. Sure shows why you are the leader (next to Dad of course!). Brightest of Blessings! Keep up the good work!
okay I have never been so stressed out watching!!!!! I am so glad everything worked out! and I totally get it y'all did what you had to do with how things were!
JOSH! ALEX! HECTOR! WAY TO GO!
YOU GOT THE JOB DONE AS SAFELY AS YOU COULD!!!
PLEASE BE CAREFUL OUT THERE! Y'ALL ARE WORTH MORE THAN THAN A BUSTED UP RIG!!!
THANKS FOR SHARING AND KEEPIN IT REAL! 😅😊
Well done Josh and Alex. That was a challenge for sure. Stay safe guys.
Hey Pepe's towing service! Great vid man thanks a pile for posting it! Love the insta360 footage from the boom! Freedom of camera angle after its recorded is amazing! Stay safe! Ride ride ride!
I've never seen that many armchair quarter backs ! I knew that you would get this . There's no job you can't do ! That was a cliffhanger for sure . Great video .
You guys are wizards with those rotators!
Great recovery. Takes a lot of different ideas and coordination.
I got seriously "involved" in at reset, thanks for sharing, kudos!
some class improvisation on the spot under pressure there guys! That is one heck of an awkward recovery well done!
Excellent job improvising in VERY tight quarters!!!! Very cool video!! Take care and be safe my friends!!
Nice job. You all have some great equipment.
I'm trying to understand the damage to the truck. Did he roll onto his side, slide a ways, then flip partially back up and onto the barrier, or was this his second accident of the day, and the scrapes were from an earlier rollover?
Very nice work 👍😊
Very good job!
Oh boy! It took so much power to set that thing straight! But as always Josh, you find a way to overcome the problems! 👍
THe 360 on the boom really showed the forces ( is torsion the correct word to use) at play both on the boom and cables themselves but also on the container and chassis when manoeuvring it.
Hey Josh ///Alex & Hector !!! Great work by ALL To ""GET--ER-- DONE "" !!!! 🙃😉🤔🙄👍👍👍👍👍
Tough job but great team work. Thank you for sharing.
Great job
I never saw you do one quite like this one, good job wow! "How in the heck did you scale up the back of the trailer without a ladder"!
Good job guys getting it off one chassis and on another!
Nice one. Good recovery. Great video content. Thanks
I just love it when a plan comes together.
That was a tough one! Good work as usual!
Another fantastic video! Thanks for the hard work into the videos. Stay safe out there!
🎉that was one heck of a recovery. You guys are fantastic
Another awesome job by Pepe's !🤓🙋♂️👍
Hi,from Newfoundland Canada ,,I don’t know any questions to asked ,so I will just sit and watch the amazing videos of the moves.
Gr8 piece of work there Josh.
When Alex was topside trying to pry that jammed lock off the container while standing on the trailer, I was worried it might suddenly give and throw him off. There was too much torsion on that trailer. Luckily it stayed stuck while he was up there. BE CAREFUL!

Someone said Easy-Peasy. That jinxed it.
Muy buen video felicitaciones al equipo!!!!!
Good job crew, that was a fist full of anxious moments ! I like the way you can climb that container at the rear, even in my youth that alone would be a challenge! (for me)
For stuck pins I have a flatbed bar with the square head I hook the bar around the handle and lean on it I'm 350 lbs and it's a 40" bar. Love 💓 your videos.
Good job guys….stay safe
Looked like you was removing tractor trailer from turn one of a Nascar track. Quite an angle the ramp was and leveling the truck from the rear. Good job with the crew working together.
Wow! What a nightmare 😮
That one just didn't want to. Nice work.
Great recovery you had to work at that one
Fun that I now right we're are at. I grew up in California. Worked in Long Beach. My dad was in the Coast Guard There
Vantastic !!! Job.
Alex is probably lucky that pin DIDN'T come out. I could just see the chassis unwinding and throwing him right over that wall when he was standing on the tire...😳

No problem for The hawk and big flipper They get the job done with no problem at all specific Josh and his crew always on seeing always doing a good job and In California All the place you see the biggest names It's pepe towing
What year is old yeller the PETERBILT 379 60 ton rotator truck your dad is assigned to?
They should check the locks beforehand after it's on the trailer
Nice job josh you always do a great job 👍
You earned your pay on that one.👍
Nice job Joshua
Another great job by Hulk and Flipper. Hey, whatever happened to your truck that got side swiped? Is it fixed yet? Love your videos.
IMPRESSED!!!
Climbed up like a pro
I hope you guys do your refresher course on unleashing potential energy.
Trying to disengage the chassis from the container while standing on the tire was putting your life in danger. You’re lucky that it didn’t come loose. The twisted chassis was under tons of pressure and your skull is not a steel ball. It could have been smashed on the other lane into a thousand pieces
Peace,,,,,!! Great video!!
Good afternoon from Southeast South Dakota
I only watch these when Alex is doing the recoveries.
Sounds pretty sus bro. Sorry to break it to you but he has a girl and kids and isn't interested in guys
Sounds like Josh is answering 😂😂😂 mas put! Your the sus thinking this way foo.
@@PepesTowingService i was saying cause he doesnt talk or is a marika like Josh. 😂😂😂😂
You fail to realize the beginning of my channel I was the same. People told me "I don't know what's going on, talk more and explain ". So I did and the channel blew up. But regardless, thanks for watching lol I'll tell Alex you said hi

That's crazy, what a feat.
I really love these towers that nag about no room!🤣👍👍
What port is this at? Long Beach? Love the videos! Maybe include a brief message about where these recoveries were located. That would be awesome. Keep up the good work!
Cut off saw?
Thought Hulk was toast. Well done.
TOTLA BAD ASSES
A challenge is always good for the brain
8:30 - Alex is a BEAST! Look at him out there working that cheater bar like it's a wiffle ball bat. Then he follows it up with a Mr. Miyagi balance challenge!
That one was a pain for sure!! In real time, how long did this one take Josh? Keep up the great videos🙂
Have you considered carrying something like a plasma cutter on the truck? Obviously would probably only be key in situations like this but when you do use it, it would probably be worth it's weight in gold to simplify things
Just be carefully out there.
Is it possible that you can get the trailer lifted up and pulled back to get the truck off the wall? The damage is already done, so I don’t think it will matter what happens to the trailer.
Looks like that isn't the first 'incident' that truck has had...maybe that driver can't learn...is dangerous to others!
if these were simple anyone watching would do it
Facts
This is what happens when you hire wheel holders with no green cards….
Josh, as always, the man with a plan.
With the rotator on the front, had you slid the front of the box towards the chassis, while keeping the chassis tight to the rear of the container, it should have released the tension on the locking pin. I haul and lift containers regularly, the slightest tension will bind those rear pins.
Awesome video Josh , you made that difficult recovery look easy
Question though !! .. could you have used a Sawzall or chop saw to cut that damaged pin ???
I was mentally reaching for cutting tools the whole time. Dunno if that would help, but that's what I would try...
10:00 Yeah the chassis and the tractor need to move towards the container or disconnect the tractor and move the chassis.
Why can’t you use a chop saw to cut that lock. you have the winches holding everything with big flipper
Peace to you
Ratchet binder too release the tension from the twist of the trailer in the front
Would be nice to have a good sized plasma cutter and a carbon tourch for making a job faster but it would cost money to have a service truck with it. Maybe it would be defendable cost
Reupload or another driver again?
All due a stupid lock dude. That must of being frustrating however you guys one of the best when it comes to recovery and videos on youtube. Great video guys
One stubborn container
The infamous pin yes we all have had them Nice Work Pepe's Crew !
💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
Got enough help there? 😊
You're more of a professional than I. After about three minutes there would have been oxyacetylene involved.
This one actually had me nervous. If that container had broken loose from the single lock while trying to upright it that would’ve been a very nasty swing.
that will take a little more than a bottle of T cut and a dent puller🤣🤣
awfully dangerous to be standing on the container trailer frame, if it should come loose!
That looks like a real nasty one, bent twist lock twisted chassis.
42:30 asta camina bien marika el wey 😂😂 no mms
Would the company let you get a chop saw with a metal cutting blade or ? No
