    Great bunch of people doing their best to help the truckie and no injuries to the cattle or anybody apart from maybe a little to the truckies pride, I certainly hope he bought everybody a few ice cold slabs at least!

    There was a story about a road train in the Northern Territory where the driver had got himself stuck in a muddy ditch and couldn't get out. He went to get some help and when he got back the entire road train was sitting there on the side of the road. Apparently a grader operator cleaning ditches had come by while he was gone and pulled the entire road train out and parked it on the side of the road.😂😁👍👍

      @@teamd-tour Good to hear and thanks for the update. Realise this wasn't Far North Queensland but visited Kakadu in September '94 and noted the 'abundance' of the crocs at the time as well as the many warning signs - took many photos with one illustrating a Crossing/Ford. Later saw several videos on TH-cam illustrating the presence of crocs at Cahill's Crossing - there were a lot of crocs showing. We checked our photos again recently and realised that the Crossing in our photo was the Cahill's Crossing featured on TH-cam - it sent a few shivers down the spine at the thought. Glad the truck got out safely and totally understand your concern regarding the presence of the crocs in the area.

    In 2006 when we done the Ord River Crossing and the water was higher than normal and yes it to was a couple truck he got caught up I said to the guy put the straight bar on an the other truck will try to pull you out. Well that didn't work so I said double line or Triple line pull from your truck to the big tree and still using your straight bar well it worked.
    I take my hat off to you as a true champion having out a fellow trucker double line winching was an excellent idea but I reckon if you went triple and a strap anchored to a tree behind you so you don't slide forward. But your efforts that you have done have been excellent.

  • @einfelder8262
    @einfelder8262 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Biggest mistake the truckie made was to try and steer back onto the concrete. He should have stopped the instant his front wheel popped off, then reversing might have got it back on again. If not, the loader bucket would have lifted him back on again. But, life in remote areas is kept interesting with social recovery gatherings :) Luckily the crocs were well fed.....

  • @hillrambler2007
    @hillrambler2007 ปีที่แล้ว

    Was the driver asleep? Can't believe he would drift that far from the markers which clearly showed the roadbed to his left. He must have never driven before. Also, why would you risk further catastrophe by not unloading some of the cattle from the upper deck before winching or pulling? I'd assign that drive to manure laoding duty for a few years until he gets it.

    • @teamd-tour
      @teamd-tour  ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You would think to have poles on both sides of the causeway and have them striped to stand out more. 🙄

    • @teamd-tour
      @teamd-tour  ปีที่แล้ว

      In the wet season when the river floods they get washed away. The poles on the left hand side were being held there by the causeway. They are just star pickets

      Yes, sorry! It was such a dangerous place to be with dozers, graders 4x4s and people. We thought it best to take a step back and let them get on with it. We didn't want to be a hinderance, It was also very dark and there were crocs in that river!! It all ended well, the cattle were rounded up, the truck was saved and the driver as you saw the following morning was on his merry way 😀

      We would have liked to have shown you but it was a dangerous situation with dozers, graders, people and the cattle were let out of the truck just before the truck was rescued. As bystanders we thought it best to stay back and let the guys get on with their job. It was also very dark and there were crocs in that river!!

    Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!"
    Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window ? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..."

      Yes, that sure would make sense but It's private property and the floods in the wet season would wash the bridge away, anyway. It's pretty remote and extreme country

    • @teamd-tour
      @teamd-tour  ปีที่แล้ว

      I guess the ending was the truck driving back across the crossing the next morning We couldn't video the moment when the truck was pulled to safety because we would have been in the way. There was lots of action going on, people, dozers, graders. We would have been a nuisance standing around videoing. Also it was very dark, and there were crocs in that river 😱

    Great video guys. To all the keyboard experts commenting on driver of the truck. You were not there! Poor bastard will certainly cop plenty of shit for his fuck up. I know in 25 years of driving i have made my mistakes. Hopefully no damage done. With the exception of pride!!

    • @teamd-tour
      @teamd-tour  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, we felt sorry for the truck driver. He was a nice guy and he felt very embarrassed. He told us he'd done that crossing over 20 times over the last 5 days. I guess we need to remember we're human and we all make mistakes

  • @peterbougoure5356
    @peterbougoure5356 ปีที่แล้ว

    I was surprised that the truck wasn't trying to drive whilst on the double line pull! Surely that could have helped, especially with the weight difference. Pls correct me if I am wrong about this.

      His right hand wheels weren't touching the ground. The left inside tyre was only just touching the causeway due to the angle of the axle.

    I for the life of Me can not figure out why People say "AH" for the letter "O". The word KILO means 1000. It does NOT change & is the first word whether it's kilo-gram, kilo-watt, kilo-jewel etc. Meter means distance.

    • @teamd-tour
      @teamd-tour  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for your comment 😀 The fact that that driver had been over the causeway more than 20 times without incident and then he spotted Heather videoing him , it was more than feasible that she may have distracted him. With the kinetic rope, everybody knows you don't use a kinetic rope when there is such a disparity in vehicle weight.

      Sorry we couldn't show you how the truck got out. That would have been amazing. To video it we would have been in the way of the rescue. t was extremely dark, dangerous with so many machines and people about and of course there were crocs in the water. The animals were released from the truck. They jumped into the river and took off towards the river bank. They were rounded up the following day. The dozer managed to pull the truck out. 😅
