@@markdoyle9055 his spinning the sand out the way before it gets a chance to grab, slow steady wins the race, just going keep it sitting on its belly spinning
The suction around the wheels actually helps it grip in low range he didn't need to spin the wheels at all until he was getting snatched out. I've been bogged in the same situation let the sand harden for 20 mins and it crawled straight out in low range with minimal revs
Right? I recently bought a 22 outback and asked my mechanic friend would it be OK to take on the beach. He strongly suggested against as the sand and salt would get into everything and that even a thorough wash down wouldn't be enough to get rid of it all. Only take old rust buckets on the beach
@@lizard9437 I mean wouldn't get every little spec but you can buy attachments and such to clean inside your chassis rails and such to clean it well enough, my 99 gu patrol has been on the beach many times throughout its life and has no rust
Now it's fucking hell on earth with that many people, especially this time of year. It's a winter/spring/autumn place now for sure, ya couldn't fuckin pay me to go in summer.
What an epic save,he's very lucky to have had so many willing helpers to save his rig.Cant say I'd be too keen doing beach driving unless there was no other option.
That guy must of felt like the biggest goose lol Especially running over the tyre after he got out, I can’t imagine this bloke going on the beach again lol, holy crap kept watching he got bogged again lmao my god
They don't get around much anymore but I have seen people use an exhaust jack under the sill to lift the car up then pack under the tyres .... anyone else recon this would work in this case ? Thoughts
first thing I thought of! Its always in my kit and cost me $50 prob 15yr go and been used twice for such an occasion. Double or triple line winch pull may have been a little wiser too. I guess the mind does things when the pressure is on. End of the day, they got him out and thats a credit to all the people whom helped and that no one was hurt. I did have a laugh at ol' mate who and his misso @ 2:15 whom clearly dont know how a 4WD with open differentials works.
One of the best things I ever did when I first drove on the beach was see how slow I could drive in soft sand. I had been taught as a kid camping up the beach to floor it whenever in trouble. I realised I can just let the clutch out and it crawls through sand like a tractor. I know there are other factors like towing etc. that change that but for the average 4wd… just chill
Bogged to the chassis and still spinning the wheels... It's hard to keep track of all the things being done wrong in this video. A 4wd training course and trying to get a bit more information on 4wding in general would be a good idea for this guy after this...
This is how other people get hurt, and it’s how other people’s cars and equipment usually gets damaged by helping out drongos like this fella. I can’t tell’ya the amount of times my vehicle has been damaged by helping these clueless people out on beaches all over Australia. But I’m betting he had fun and thought it was a big adventure aye👍
How many things could you do wrong? 1. Was is it in low range 4wd? 2. Don’t just spin your wheels, you’ll just dig a deeper hole. 3. Were their tyre pressures down to 12 to 15 psi? Note that right at the end after they had just been recovered they got bogged again and yet someone drove past them and safely up on to the beach! Seems like tyre pressures were still too high and they may not have been in 4wd. Also note that with most fourbies only one wheel at the back and one at the front will seek the least traction and spin, not all 4 and you can see this in action with this car.
Hardly. His on a beach with no front drive. Revs the thing up and digs himself in. Runs over the tire even though told earlier to stop. Bet the max tracks weren’t his. Just a dickhead. In reality beach driving is quiet safe when done properly with care and half a brain.
no i have been driving mine since 2005 on the beach at last a dozen times a year i live at a beach my car looks new and no rust ,it all depends on if you drive a car or own a car , owing a car requires a level of commitment to keep it in good order ,it is the 2nd most expensive thing we will ever buy
Once your on the chassis, Max trax won't help by themselves. They certainly would have been great to put under the wheels when the winching started or even a snatch pull. The problem is ol' mate lead foot would have absolutly destroyed any maxtrax used so unless he had his own, I doubt anybody would offer any.
It was said they had allready broke 2 snatch straps,any idea what brand?lot of times snatching is the way to go in this sort of situation to break the suction.
snatching is a waste of time in such a sitation and only going to break something - the loads are extreme - luck that straps broke, there needs to be a 'fuse' in there somewhere. Multiple static lines are far safer and more effective especially when there was a couple of vehicles available. Several vehicles providing a static pull will generate a large sum of total pulling force without any vehicle creating extreme - the sum of the parts, not 1 x 4t 79 series proving a full throttle snatch.
Winching is the only way to get someone out of sand. The suction takes time to break, a short high peak load snatch will just break something (hopefully just the strap). A winch with constant tension starts slowly pulls it out of the sand until it's free. This video is proof, they broke straps but the winch got it out, and you see how slowly it comes up when it finally does start to move, a snatch can't do that.
Looks like in this case, every time they made some progress, old mate bogged himself again. Probably needed a new driver and some maxtrax for the strap or winch to slowly pull him up onto.
I don’t think everyone driving a 4wd knows how to use their equipment. Its well worth reading up on the subject and practicing skills with the right gear.
Oh my god, this could have been done way easier. The spare wheel was way too close to the vehicle and the MaxTracs should have been under the front wheels.
Did he not listen to anyone telling him to idle out while on the cable? Pretty easy to see how he went down the first and second times. Oops, I know I'll give it a bootful?
stock lsd differential did exactly what it’s designed to do. The owner should of upgraded if he thought he may ever been in a position in which unfortunately he found himself in.
I hate winching people out and they don't get the concept that I am pulling them, they are just using their vehicle to help. Few understand that it's better to keep tension on the winch line and not overrun it even when they recover traction and can drive forward again.
I can't believe no one was hurt get the driver out of the car it would have gotten out 10 minutes ago if the driver wasn't just hindering the problem by taking all the dirt away from under the wheels..
I'm a strong supporter of not insuring people that go off road. Everytime a vehicle is washed out or rolled it's generally because an unessential risk was taken by an inexperienced, ill equipped driver. This bloke looked like he was intoxicated or had no clue. I'm over paying higher premiums to cover shit like this.
@@Mouldyturnip75 it's not actually but my house, business, excavator, plant trailers, several other vehicles are. I figure if it gets washed out to sea I'll just accept that and move on.
Here 's an idea, park somewhere safe and WALK to the beach. So many people think that a 4x4 can go anywhere, and that is just not the case, especially if you lack the skills to drive one.
First thing you should have done is get the idiot driving out of the stuck vehicle. He has no clue what he's doing, jus making it worse. And if he's not gonna listen and let someone that knows how to drive get in, then leave him there.
Perfect lesson on the best way to dig holes with your tyres!
Old mate had no idea! Just driving himself deeper into that sloppy sand. Lucky he had a cast of thousands to help
hahahahaha more revs more revs, some people have no idea
Old mate trying to dig himself in even further spinning his wheels that much
He was stuck good and proper, but if he stopped turning those wheels it would have stayed. Need to keep them rolling or that sand builds up around the wheels and creates more suction making it harder to recover.
Maybe just turning not full on acceleration like this wanker.

I have never used my Maxx Trax but they are quite worn from rescuing other bogged idiots who kept hwy pressure in their tyres.
Hear the woman say it's not a 4wd . There should be test for some people before they get a 4x4
Brought up many tines already but, simple question... Why would you drive in the salt water?
And no shorebird nesting habitat was harmed. Great result 4x4 community.
5:43 look at the rear left tyre - another 50psi club member. Get the tyres down to 10 psi.
Did he lower the pressure after getting bogged the first time??

I was amazed that there was no diff lock on the car. One upon a time all 4wd had a diff lock. My tractor and my mower both have this feature.
Gumtree next week..
Well looked after vehicle, serviced meticulously, never been off road.
Shows how easy it is to get into trouble. Poor bugger
Well done for getting him out 👍👍

Easy peasy if you aren't very bright.
Every time I see these videos with people driving their rigs in the ocean, I just shake my head. Why? Does it not destroy the truck?

Awesome video guys and awesome help. Always throw in the exhaust jack, rarely seen but worth their weight in gold in sand👍👍👍👍 Great result 🤘🤘

The beach just wanted to keep that ride! Tide was coming in much faster than people getting out wow :O

Not sure - we got there after that.

Amazing video mate. Thx for upload
How much air in those tyres? He had no Max traks of his own.
I don’t think everyone driving a 4wd knows how to use their equipment. Its well worth reading up on the subject and practicing skills with the right gear.
Preferably somewhere dry, without the fear of an incoming tide, with someone that already knows what they're doing. 👍
They literally have no idea
That’s why people like this deserve to lose there car
Old mate thought it was a real laugh. Risking lives and breaking gear, leave the beach for those who know what they’re doing.
Thanks to all the people who helped.
why is there only one winch pulling??? 🤔 Lots of bystanders just watching and filming. 😕
Not sure that guy knows how to drive on sand. Nice of the many other people to help him.
Here's why buying 2nd hand 4wd's is a risky gamble 😅
Used prado for sale, never been off road or in salt water
haha... Some head shaking moments there. 🤣Cheers for getting the footage for our entertainment.
It's it great to see Aussie helping each other. Well done
Love the Aussie Spirit! Glad the bloke got out finally. ❤🇭🇲🦘
Oh my god, this could have been done way easier. The spare wheel was way too close to the vehicle and the MaxTracs should have been under the front wheels.
Maybe a wallaby jack on the spare tyre as a foundation, jack it up high and just push it over onto new ground. Done it many times
Ole mate is a shocker 😂
I really struggle with the lack of knowledge and poor execution- especially all the wheel spinning without purpose.
How good is it that so many people help out
They should something under the back tire since it’s spinning and digging a deeper hole
Grate job mate . Truely a grate Australian love it
Wow stuck twice?
Did he not listen to anyone telling him to idle out while on the cable? Pretty easy to see how he went down the first and second times. Oops, I know I'll give it a bootful?
Wowzers, what is that at the end the Bondi of 4WD accessible beaches!? Never seen such crazy crowding, would rather stay at home.
Good to see people coming together to help but seriously some people shouldn’t have a 4wd.
Music/songs on this please !
I take it nobody had a high lift?
all I could hear is the King of the Hill theme song
Looks drunk to me. Error after error
Love our Aussie sense of community 🇦🇺 I really thought the ocean had that one!
Almost made on the wall of fame for Rainbow Beach 😜
Who's crispy??
Hand held radios are so important in this situation for clear instructions for driver and rescue vehicle and cordinator
Is that bloke off his chops ?
Yeah was a pain in the ass!
Wow that looks like great fun.
Always something going on!! Nice save!
What happened to 4 Wheel Drive?
I would expect it from a front wheel drive, not 4WD!
A winch or two trucks pulling on a single line would work faster.
Old mate had no idea.. plus he better get that 4wd system looked at
stock lsd differential did exactly what it’s designed to do. The owner should of upgraded if he thought he may ever been in a position in which unfortunately he found himself in.

I'm tipping a double line pull would've worked. Why didn't he use his winch. Great effort getting him out.
Hard to find something to anchor to on the beach.
Trying to snatch that bogged is a waste of time. Ya need a big winch
He’s giving the Prado a bad rep his tyres must have been to high
Probably had it in Hi 4 instead of LL 4.
She said he had no drive in the front wheels.. so why is he on the beach spinning wheels like that? Idiot.
people helping others, so nice
getting bogged the second time is crazy work

I think you should run a recovery business there.🚜

You go to Fraser Island to get away from the crowd only to be met with the crowd you wanted to get away from.
You owe a few beers 😂
This guy is a goose!
Just if the rest of the world was like this people helping each other
That guy should never drive on any beach ever again. A danger to everyone
I will never understand why so many people willingly driving into salt water...
He needs to hand his licence in I think 😢
Should have had a set of 4 truck claws
On sale soon on Facebook.
Nice to see nice comments. Cause if this was a land rover or a mitsy there would be heaps about poor 4wd
He needs to have a beach driving course.
Based off photos and now seeing old mate talk, safe to say he was drunk lol... should have left him there
Yep
Aussies to the rescue. Well done guys.
