I have operated that 45 ton wrecker before. I learned so much from Charlie he in my mind was the best recovery man on the planet. I spent several weeks in Dayton Ohio with Charlie and Bill from Woodys recovering a barge that sank on a American Agg pit. I helped Charlie on several recoverys. RIP Charlie.
This was extremely well anchored and rigged, and it was really very impressive to see!
To have recovered this major piece of heavy equipment from the bed of a lake was some achievement, and it was fascinating to see the means by which this was accomplished.
I assume that this was fresh water and that the machine would be rebuilt, or it was recovered by the insurance company whom underwrote it's loss.
Thank you for sharing this unique marine salvage operation, it's nice to see such professional operations as this.
No one ever says how these machines get into the situation to begin with. I think it would be nice to know. Especially the ones under water.
Probably too embarrassed. Lol
I have video of quarry drill hitting a spring and losing d7 old quarry crane and excavator. It only took them nearly 20yrs to recover equipment
God, some people will whine about anything. This is free entertainment. Personally, slide show it may be, but i found the way the lines were rigged and anchored interesting. thanks
totally agree, all the you tube nazi's should learn to live
Perfectly said
Operator was listening to this music and went crazy obviosly nice recovery lol
That was a great recovery! Thanks for sharing the rigging. Love the anchor points. Great job all around!
Nice rigging! Some of the people complaining should take notes. Learned a lot of that while in the Army.
I do understand that it take BIG equipment to get BIG equipment out of a situation like this and your rigging was a masterpiece of brains and obviously experience, AMAZING job on this and impressive in every way. I can be pretty creative but would not have had a clue of what it actually took to make this happen!!!
The rigging here was done by a recovery genius. Nice job.
Serious business there. Glad you guys got the gear to recover it. Would've loved to have taken part. Always good to see machinery saved from the scrapyard.
A good example of strategy, tactics, coordination & skills. Well Done !
Very nice job with the deadmen snatch blocks rigging.....You guys know your stuff.....Very nice recovery......
How did it get there? How long was it there? Who owns it? Where is it going? Anything? What do you think we watch these for?
Great job for everyone involved. Good to hear it’s back in action again. Who cares how it got there the point is it’s back in action.
I just read through damn near 400 comments. Here are some observations...
Most people can't spell.
A lot of people are upset that this is a slideshow, but I just imagine that this took place before everybody had smartphones.
A few people liked the 80s cockrock soundtrack, but most didn't.
The vast majority just want to know what led to the dozer being underwater, in the first place. I'm in this group. The only reason I was willing to read through all these comments was to see if that question was answered.
It never was.
So, in light of that...
HOW DID THIS BULLDOZER END UP AT THE BOTTOM OF THE LAKE???
Thanks for doing the leg work
Well, jimmy was on controls and see, he just bought a brand new truck. Thur he was, admiring from afar, well a damn stray cat jumps on hood of it. Chester, the owners dog caught wind of the cat and started jumpin all over the drivers side fender. Jimmy started screaming and jumps out of the D9 running full sprint, which is kinda funny seein as jimmy don’t run most of time cause one legs shorter then the other anyway, so owner man comes out n says sorry bout the truck man but you shouldn’t keep your lunchbox on the hood and the cat wouldn’t have gone up there and the dog wouldn’t of taken chase.. you follow? Right then he says,,, I thought you were driving the D9? Jimmy looks behind him just as the roof starts disappearing beneath the smooth waters surface and he pauses for a moment and says sorry about the dozer man but you really should of paid to get the safety switch under the seat fixed seein how she didn’t stop when I got up and ran over here. You follow?
Your assumptions are damn near retarded. It isn't that most people can't spell, it's that people don't go back and read their texts before posting and almost every single time, there is a spell check mistake made by the phone and the person just didn't catch the mistake. Cocrock? Really?! You probably listen to some type of hip country, pop, rap garbage, because you clearly do not have a inkling of what really good music and musicians are, if you did, you would know that Tesla plays all their own instruments and writes all their own songs. Also, by the time the viewers click on another video, they have completely forgotten about what they just watched and the reason for why that dozer wound up in the bottom of that lake. And it truly takes a very boring human life, with way to much time to waste to read through 400 comments to find out the answer to a question that honestly, dosen't matter anyway. People like you, think you are smarter than a fifth grader but in reality, would be burned at the stake by one.
Aloha..
You should be president

I enjoyed this montage. People are critical of everything. If it were in "video" format, people would bitch due to an unsteady camera. Pulling a massive piece of machinery like this from water isn't a 5 minute job. I'd be willing to guess 10 hours minimum. Oh, and the "girl" screaming? Yeah, that's a dude. It's Tesla. If you didn't grow up in the eighties, you certainly can't appreciate it. Don't like it? Move on.
How in the world did the bulldozer end up in such an unlikely place? Did it go over the cliff or fall off a barge?
THIS VIDEO WILL SHOW YOU A COMBINATION OF RIGGING, LIFTING AND PULLING TECHNIQUE - Not a Video- It's a slide show.
Would have love to be part of that rebuild :-) love it
I enjoyed everything but the music!
I enjoyed the music and nothing else.
Can't handle that damn music
I like the music! There are a few clues as to how it came to be in the lake. It’s upright, no visible damage, cement block beam pieces nearby. Probably, the lake filled up unexpectedly and/or it was forgotten to be removed in time. Nice rescue. Thanks for the mention that it is now running again.
Was that someone singing or someone with their Toe stuck under the Door..!
Yeah this is interesting how it happened. Im over here by gr mi. Good job on the recovery
We went through it and got it operating again.
Joseph Tulip how did the dozer get in there in the first place mate
if you stop and think, there is only one wa they get there, they cross lakes all the time with heavy equipment over the ice roads and they fall though, being this is in a worm country and no ice, someone drove it in over a bank, many time kids will get these things rung and drive them into what ever they can find, there not hard to start
Romppai's Outdoors P
I once didn't have the old Cat key; the one with two prongs.....so I found two nails, stuck them in the Cat switch, warmed up the glow plugs and then started up a dozer to move it out of the way for us to dump all of our loads of dirt. But, yeah, those old machines weren't hard to start if one knew how to MacGyver it.
Joseph Tulip Michigan has ice in the winter.
1. The Title should read, PICTURES OF THE RECOVERY A D9T BULLDOZER. 2. How the hell did it get in the lake? My guess is a ticked off employee drove it in there.
Could have been in winter on ice highway.Johnny
Judging by the full size dead ash trees that are 1 foot wide sticking out of the water and that the water is 20 feet deep my guess is it was flooded for a damn or a quarry that flooded accidentally
Opps.... but daddy....I was just showin' Mary-lou my "skills"!!!!
It's good to see REAL professionals in action. - No fuss, no panic - they got the job done !
Charlie Ness how the hell can u tell if there was or wasn't fuss or panic? Dying am I to know
Guys standing next to those tow cables under tons of tension,---- not smart
yes sir one breaks two snakes are produced that can take off your head quicker and cleaner than the 44 Magnum.
Good job folks. Lot of work in that. I hope the machine runs again.
We just know there is no hope for civilization when our taste in music fall to a lever below insanity.
that was great to see all that equipment lot of hard work I work with construction trucks that was amazing would you gentlemen know whatever happened to that Dozer did they get that back up and running you guys did great thank you
You know, not every can stand around or even strategically position a tripod foo your video enjoyment, I appreciate the great effort and ingenuity it took to raise this valuable icon from what could very well have been a submerged grave. Koodos to you guys, A job well done!
Tell me, how is the dozer now?
The dozer could've been parked at its location and miners could of hit an underground spring that flooded the area rapidly. Has happened in the south many many times.
How did it get in the water? Wish you had some video footage of this.
First time I've seen a cat baptized
4:20 square body got her hooked 😊😊😊
Strip mining operation? Looked like a lot of blue clay spoil pushed to back fill quarry?
How much work did they get out of it under water?
Excellent job gentlemen!
I couldn't help noticing the 810 area code on the tow truck, would that be from around Genesee County, Michigan? Just curious.
How in the heck did it get in there to begin with ?
Who is the "hero" responsible for this total submersion of a non amphibious track vehicle?
IDK, but for his own sake I hope he went down with the ship after seeing this mess.
Probably vandals.
Liberty Patriot got a point, could have at least tossed in a picture of some tits huh
robert plummer
charming idea
How long has it been there? I'm wondering because I'm trying to find a sunken 70s era bull dozer 30 ft down under my local lake what do you think it's going to look like
it was under water for almost a year before we were hired to recover the bulldozer.
Only a year? It looks like 10-20 based on how much the paint faded, must get a lot of sunlight there.
paint most likely was that faded before it went down, as they sit in the hot sun all there life, most cars trucks and equipment look the same as the day they went down, as no air get to them, there been things recovered and got running 25 years later, specially the ones that have come out of the great lakes ice cold fresh water
Damn that dozer must have floated way over there
I'd like to know how it got there
Good job!
How did that machine end up underwater?
Slightly use dozed for sale. Been washed top to bottom. Call for price.
P.s. tadpoles inside the cylinders and the big bass in oil pan are included.
Nice....great rig job.....!!
These guys are stuck on them selves loves taking pictures of themselves!!! The hell with the dozer!!!
It's not a video, it's a slideshow. Out of focus photos, portrait mode photos and there's no apostrophe in specialists.
You saved me from typing that. Thank you.
I agree I want to see video but anyways it’s cool that it’s out of the water but it still trashed so instead of a boat anchor you have a paperweight good job
My first question is, how did this D9T Bulldozer get under water in the first place?
kjkjkjk
At the 7 minute mark it was still sitting in the water so I turned it off.
All I want to know how it get down there
Keep it up bro
How did that machine end up in the water?
Its a shame nobody had a video cam!
What did the recovery cost? What is the value of a waterlogged dozer? Must be some accounting voo doo.
Well that's one hell of a place to park the damn thing!
How’d it get in the water ?
I'm with all the other people who would like to know how the dozer got there in the first place. The other thing I would have liked was an explanation of the rigging of the cables for the pull.
That aint the Beatles, and that aint a "Yellow Submarine".
Omg thats funny comment lmao
dang it earl...we only wanted the tree and looks like we got a dozer as well....dang it
was this in lakehurst NJ?
At first all I saw was that 1 ton Chevy wrecker and knew that wouldn't be enough to drag a dozer
how did it even get down there to begin with
How did the dozer end up underwater? :-)
I remember Charlie, one of the best. I see it rubbed off. great job you guys
Dunno what costs are like in the US, but if that was here in Australia, by the time you rebuilt the engine, trans, final drives and hydraulics you may as well just scrap it.
It was interesting after I turned off the woman screaming on the sound track. Sounds like she was run over.
I think that's a dude. An 80s-era dude, that sounds like a chick and wears mascara and fishnets and hairspray.
That so called 'singer' should've been run over f only to put IT out of IT'S misery!
Hate the soundtrack
Wow disrespectful bunch of assholes
Don’t like it don’t watch it
And the sound track is Tesla and Jeff Keith is the singer
Very successful 80s band that was not hair and make up
Try and enjoy life a little and stop being negative
Happy holidays
@@norcalvandweller8401 there are very good, valid reasons why nobody remembers that band.
There are plenty of music "videos" with the audio playing in the background, and a still of the album cover for the "video." What is up with all the whining. It is 7 minutes long. Surely you could tell in 30 seconds and move along? This was an amazing recovery, thanks for sharing.
No explanation of how it got there,,, just crappy music
John Harrop
No doubt.
Crappy music?? Tesla rocks!!
John Allen
Nope
Try again
@@silverdrillpickle7596 let's agree to disagree.
Thats was a great song by a good band
How did it end up submerged? The pics are great by the way.
Seb M
I wana know that to
Was it parted out or gone through and back to operating again?
cletrac 12c they got it up and running again
Love knowing the fact that those cat adt's are built here in tyne and wear, uk. #northernpowerhouse
Looks like 4or 5 part line....and a few hundred feet of large cable...
Nice job...
Awesome music
Started right up!
Looks like Wally's Filling Station got in on the act with Goober at the wheel of that old tow truck..
Don't use the choke when you go to start it, good chance it may be flooded...
Does anyone remember a video of a dozer being dragged out of a lake or ocean by 2 excavators and another bulldozer? Been trying to find it again for a couple years now.
And the screaming set to music was the owner...
How do you get licensing rights to use Teslas copyrighted song? Love the song !
they probably didn't but if they make any money off this video it will go right to Tesla
What you give,I got laid on some bleachers behind Dane Co coliseum after taking the hottest girl in my highschool to this concert
Probably as the water got to the air filter it collapsed the filter and the engine smothered,and maybe a little water got passed it and in the cylinders.
So maybe it didn’t hydraulic lock and bend a rod ,or whatever worse can happen to a running engine.
That’s a terrible thing to happen to a machine.
Has there ever been an answer as to how this happened.
Amazing work. Thank you.
Good thing it had a rain cap on it!
Did the machine go through the ice when the lake was frozen over? It surely can't of been driven that far into the lake the engine would have hydrolocked as soon as it took a lung full of water.
I'm no videographer,...wait, yes I am,...this is a slide show, not a video!
Wot! Didn't they have digital cams in 1715? You managed to record the music from the elevator of your local mall though.....well done, gold star for trying.
Nice work
Just wondering what it would take to get it up and running again?
A lot. That motor is probably toast. As is about everything else. You’d virtually have to replace every fluid. Electrical related items. I couldn’t imagine. Maybe someone refurbishes these rigs but gotta be insane work to do.
Good job
PART 2 WILL IT COLD START

Does anyone know how the dozer got under water to start with?
Dave Brittain creative posturing...
Not sure if I’m right but I thought I heard that they someone drove into the lake.
Ok I'll ask. Is a dozer recovered like that salvageable?
absolutely
Can that be made operational again
My question is how does a D9 get that far out in a lake? Answer me that.
