    Dave, thanks for coming down and doing that! We're glad Matt invited you. We live a couple of blocks from the mouth of Three Falls Canyon and have hiked it and played up in there many times. Such a pretty area, but it was always a bit disappointing to have those smashed cars in there. It is so nice to see them gone. We wondered what that big green boom truck was doing up there! Now we know. Much respect regarding the free solo climb. We've done a bit of that on those cliffs, and those rocks are sharp and crumbly. Takes some real skills to do that!

    I wish I was 50 years younger and had a chance to work with these guys. I am an old 101 St. Airborne Paratrooper who was in Rescue with a Rescue program that worked throughout the Mid Western States and I loved Repealing and doing the Crazy work off of the bottom of Helicopter's. I did several Rescues and recoveries in the 1960's I watch these movies and relive many. Today I am 83 years old born July 17. 1939 and if they would allow me I would still repeal over those cliffs hanging from the boom of the wrecker. I have rode many Crain cables . I never realized these were two different Companies, That is what one misses when old. I am sorry I have made negative remarks because the situations were never jiving in my mind.

Whether you show careless bravado or good sense safety measures could influence how they behave. Each of us has a responsibility to encourage safe responsible behavior. Damn good vid BTW.

    Much respect to HeavyD and Matt for working together and more importantly, knowing their limitations when they arise. I don’t think either one of these guys would put themselves or their crew in danger just for likes on a video, they are true professionals and deserve all the respect and should serve as an great example of what to do in these situations.

  • @leonanderson4727
    @leonanderson4727 2 ปีที่แล้ว +214

    One thing that Heavy D and Matt have in common is they both keep everything in meaningful perspective and both like overcoming the challenges of terrain and developing the right equipment to do their specific line of vehicle removal. Removing those vehicles from the bottom of that cliff is the biggest challenge yet, and turned out to be very meaningful for both of them. What a way to meet one another.

Matt's ego doesn't stand in the way of realizing his limitations. Heavy D did not disappoint! What a pleasure it was to see Heavy D "share the adventure" with Matt, and keep HIS ego in check as well.

      Everything about this endeavour was ridiculously unsafe. Rusty cables, winch truck parked precariously close to the edge, no ground anchors or even simple wheel chocks on the winch truck, people standing behind the truck as it's winching, people holding onto the cables (a tensioned steel cable that snaps can easily cut your head off), everyone standing right on the edge peering over, the cables chafing against the rocks, and absolutely no safety equipment in sight. This isn't just amateur, it's downright idiotic. This level of stupidity could easily have cost lives.

      @@crisnevin7934 Hello, in this case, a simple steel line could have been fixed around a sizable rock at the bottom of the gully that would not move, That cable would go to the top of the cliff, to a fixed anchor, for example, an "A" frame anchored by ground anchors or heavy vehicles, essentially just like a ski lift cable, except it is a single line, not a rotating line. Hanging on this line is a pulley block with a down line attached to the smashed-up cars. The pulley block is controlled by a separate cable, which keeps it in place. A third line lifts the smashed car. The cable controlling the pulley block in then wound in, which pulls the car safely through the air, instead of dragging it against the cliff face, which tears the car apart scattering pieces as it goes, damages your winch line and is at risk of damaging your truck winch, even your truck.
      If you look up forestry skylines on the internet, you will see diagrams and even a video of a sky-line working. In a forestry environment, skylines can be complex bits of kit, there are also simpler models such as farmers use in the French Alps. However, with a little know-how, a simple setup can be put in place. Otherwise, if you have the cash and the need, buy a professional sky-line.

    I have watched a lot of your stuff and I love that you help people when you can. The boat on lake Mead was cool, and the airplane made me cry. I live close to his hometown. Matt's stuff is more what we do here and I love his recovery stuff, but you guys are needed and appreciated for sure. I think you both are good guys. I love Matt's family and crew. I will be watching as long as you guys keep doing this stuff. Thanks for getting in on this. Its always exciting.

    That was awesome! The very best of America right there. I never thought I'd see the day that you guys would get together and pull off a massive job like that. Well done! Watching from down under. The very best of what is on the internet right now.

    Thanks to HeavyD & Matt, I got to watch this freakishly dangerous recovery on my dayoff. I felt so pumped after that I almost walked back to the office. I enjoy watching you guys from Kenya.

    Amazing collaboration! Certainly lived up to the Sparks name with the huge sparks flying of the vehicles as you pulled them out. Matt's Off Road Recovery does it like no one else when it comes to using the kenestic rope to pull vehicles, etc out of sticky situations. Great job to all!

    Both of your teams are amazing. When I hear the term Red Neck - I can't think more of a great example of practical knowledge, ingenuity, and positivity from your examples - a true compliment. Brilliant work!

    My first thought is that for this type of recovery the cables are too heavy and too short while the winches are very slow.
    In my opinion, the ideal would be to use a capstan winch with one long strand of synthetic rope through a snatch block or pulley on the boom.
    Unfortunately, nobody seems to run Capstan Winches anymore.
    My second thought was that a Logging Yarder would be an ideal piece of equipment for this job. You have to run a skyline from a fixed position and then the mainline can lower a dropline from the carriage. Unfortunately, there are no great trees to anchor the Skyline and probably not too many logging companies in the area to borrow the equipment.

    I can only imagine what my wife would say after seeing video of me free climbing down and back up that cliff. Dave you’re, well I’m not quite sure what, but that was a helluva climb!
    And another quality video!
    Cheers

    Wow guys this was amazing. In Australia you’d have OH&S (occupational health and safety) chasing you with a big big stick though. I’m glad nobody got hurt.

      Yeahhhh We have OSHA but they don't really care about private small businesses unless someone was to report them. They saw the risk and did the job any way.
