I think it's about time HeavyD and Matt's Off-Road Recovery meet up to rescue something crazy from some ridiculous mountain spot.
Was thinking the same thing
I've been thinking that forever now
Operation Golden Nugget would have been a perfect joint rescue.
Agreed
Absolutely
My Father was a respected wrecker driver for 40 years. He passed away in 2021 .He Always told me,Try to pull the stuck vehicle the same way that it went in the problem first. Every situation is different. but when I was riding with him. That rule was true. Sparks recovery are great people. They got the rig out the best way they could. 😅 you guys are great for your community. So was my Dad.
I agree I can drive a semi. That is what I done
Great job as always boys!!! Love watching theses heavy recoveries!!! It’s my dream to start a towing / off road recovery business! Just gotta get my start somehow. I’m a T-12 L-1 spinal cord injury in a wheelchair, so it’s a little more challenging but mark my words. I will own a recovery business one day!!!
I was trying to tell you to pull it backwards, glad you finally heard me…
Remember several weeks ago when they all laughed at Dave for the gigantic equipment he ordered for recovering stuff? Perfect time to need it and not have it. Good job on the recovery you guys!
4 hours 37 min
My thoughts eactly!
I was thinking about that too!
My brother always says u don’t need that chain don’t buy it but we always do need it eventually.
Facts. I was thinking about that pallet when the cable broke
A word of advice, if you don't mind. In the mid-sixties, I was in the Army as a wheel and track vehicle mechanic. A part of our training was "heavy vehicle recovery" under extreme field conditions. When using a snatch block to create a 2 to 1, whenever possible, anchor the hook to a second vehicle or dead man. If you have a 50 ton winch and anchor back to the winching vehicle then it feels 100 tons of force, but if you anchor to a separate anchor point they each only feel 50 tons of force. If you are using a 3 to 1 set up, literally use two separate anchor points plus the winching vehicle. We were taught to use para-cord and monkey grass as an anchor, and believe it or not it works.
Right on!!!
Yeah ideally you) instead of using the loader to anchor the wrecker you would terminate the hook from the snatch block at the loader. Also with the same anchor force you can increase your holding ability by using snatch blocks to gear down the winch line allowing you to move the same object without increasing holding power. Useful if your recovery spades are having difficulty holding in soft ground etc

@@marysimth1305 yes hbu
Just found this channel and Heavy D and all I can say is IM HOOKED. Work ethic, consistency and drive is clear.
I really like Dave Sparks, he’s a very upstanding guy. Love the channel.
I was puckered up the entire time, watching everybody standing next to that cable. Glad nobody got decapitated
Ya that or being Kneecapated
That is impressively stuck!
Ayoooo it’s a party now with Grind Hard here!
The calab of the century
It makes you question the judgement of the driver. So to me the driver is the impressive one here.
really? ..... no seriously?
@@TheAnimeist Exactly. Like, WTF was he doing out there?
amazing as always, please consider giving Hunter a BIG raise
In the military, when we got a tank stuck, it often took one tank for each foot that the tank was stuck in...this might have been a 4 + tank recovery....awesome job here, loved the teamwork and comradery of your team.
We used 88s , they'll pull anything, we used them to pull turrets ( in the field) it actually took 2 88s to pull a turret
“These are my church jorts” My favourite quote of the episode
Are you married
Hello are you single
4hrs and 15 minutes, and yes we need you and Matt’s off-road to do a collaboration on some insane remote recovery
Truth this is truth. I would love to see that episode
That would be awesome to see Matt and heavy d together I'm sure there could be some real good content come out of it
I am not sure it would work since the tools Matt owns are dime a dozen for DP, they are just leagues apart when it comes to tool arsenals.
5:55
This much fun is a lotta work. I've never seen tractor-trailer wheels used as dozer blades before. Well done!
I imagine that you are pulling more than that truck weighs with the, but also the force needed to pull the 'suction' effect of the mud. Great teamwork.
As a dairy farmer, first thing I'd try is unload the semi-trailer. While that loader can handle 2 or 3 of those 3x4x8ft square bales (each bale prolly weighs +1200lbs), might *might* be able to unload the trailer one bale at a time without sinking in and getting stuck. If you can manage that, pulling an empty truck n trailer out becomes much much easier
They do this shit for fun.
I agree 150% with you. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👐
That would indeed make more sense, but a less spectacular video. These guys really want to try out their (machines) abilities and that is why they started pulling from the front while that was obviously the most difficult way.
My thoughts but no video to watch 😂
totally agree with you , especially on soft ground rule number one is to unload
5 hours 48 minutes. A collaboration with Matt's Off-road Recovery would be awesome.
4.hrs 34 minutes hor the recovery..
I think they should add smartereveryday and discuss the physics involved.
Are you single
You guys need to add a pile driving rig to your set up. If you can't find an anchor, make one.
Realy enjoy the video filming and the audio makes the show fun to watch
Brings back memories of my mother, she was a yarder operator in the woods, she been interviewed by logger world magazine and news people as far away as Japan interviewed her. She would splice those broken cable liness with long spikes, by weaving it between the individual lines. She was a logger from Oregon.
What part of Oregon I’m from Astoria
That is really cool about your Mother!!
We would have been friends for sure!
Best feeling while watching these is , everyone is happy and making jokes , irreplaceable workplace , manyother peoples jobs are sour and nasty , not this one , cheers guys , you are the best.

You guys do a great job. I enjoy watching. Time is 5 hours and 35 minutes.

3:47! Would love to see a collab with Matt’s off-road recovery!

6 hours and 23 minutes I would like to see Heavy D, Fab rats abd Matt's off road recovery do a big recovery together in the mountains.

Know we see why HD Dave went complete savage on all the new recovery wire rope, and heavy chains and equipment. Because when you start breaking your recovery gear, its almost a insult to your manhood. And any towing and recovery guy WILL NOT HAVE THAT,WE DON'T CARE IF IT TAKES A TEAM OF ELEPHANTS TO MOVE IT. WILL BUY IT AND USE IT.
That entertained the hell outta me. Great content!
I just figured it out.......you guys are part crazy, part entertaining, part obsessed, and very helpful for those who's equipment gets held on to by mother earth.
You guys need to start carrying a 4-wheeler with you on recoveries just to run out that winch line!
Enjoyed your video, one thing that would make it better for me is when you edit if you could keep the music volume the same as the voices so we don't have to keep adjusting. Keep up the good work
@@stonyearly4027 agreed.
Very large Danforth anchors, to which to anchor. Got the loader out, now the work begins. Try the Missouri River, gumbo mud. Lots of pressure washing to do. Nice recovery.
I love the demonstration of engineering and absolute power you guys demonstrate this is totally awsome somewher in the bear future I will get yo company to build a super powerful pick up truck for me with the most obnoctious loudest turbo on it
Do something with Matt’s off-road recovery! Help spread the word about their channel and give them an experience they would enjoy
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
During Dessert Storm, I got a trailer buried below the axle. After dropping the trailer, my humvee was able to pull out of the sand pit at super fast speed of 1 inch per minute. Another lighter hummer and pickup tried to get it out but in the end, that trailer was so stuck that it took a tank to get it out.
Dude, you really got sunburned out there! I don't think I've ever seen you on your channel with a sunburn like that
Amazing recover, you guys worked so hard.
UT is amazing how deceiving the ground beneath us can be. that truck was deep. Great job getting this truck out without having to unload, dumping the load, or ripping anything apart.
Lo enterraron intencionalmente, desde el minuto 1 se sabía que desde atrás saldría más fácil, están jugando, es obvio que cuando piso blando se hundió inmediatamente, entonces es lógico que el suelo firme está detrás, además ya está la huella hecha.
This is my SnowRunner game experience every night. 😂😂
😂😅😭
Lol mods have ruined this experience everyone is overpowered vehicles and they dint get stuck.... getting stuck was the idea behind multiplayer and it adds such depth to it lol wish they had loaders ro dig mud pits out
@@Tateronatangent True but mods make the game more fun
1 and a half hour
real
Great guys enjoy watching
i could, and do, watch you guys work all day.
My guess is 3hours 37 minutes. I also think you should hook up with Matt’s off road recovery and fab rats to do a big rescue together. It would be enjoyable and potentially help grow all three channels.
MORR and Heavy D team Up to recover MonsterMax 2
Looks like all that super heavy recovery gear Dave bought wasn't frivolous. Great fun to watch, keep finding them bogged pieces of equipment!
Greetings from Colorado... My guess is 5 hours/27 minutes. Appreciate your adventures Mountain Brothers.
Another Amazing Rescue Well Done Guys.
The car sank so deep, without your team rescuing it, it probably wouldn't have been able to get out 😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤
6 hours 48 minutes! I think a collab with Matt’s Off-road Recovery would be killer!
Guys are hard workers and a really good example of good work ethic. Thanks for helping out people
Also can't believe that you snapped a wrench line without even budging that semi that was absolutely amazing maybe pulling it backwards will work better fingers crossed
4 hours 22min. Judging on sun direction, the slight breeze running through the magnificent beards, and the darkness of your farmers tan. Keep up your awesome content
I will guess 3 hours 57 minutes. It is nice to see someone that knows a big truck has it's job it can do and doesn't just complain it is bumpy to ride in and claim it would not work in recovery. Only surprise is why you did not double the winch right away. Beautiful ranch and horse, nice to see the scenery there. Stay safe and healthy guys.
I just realized I’ve watched these videos for a few days maybe weeks now? I have no idea how the hell i got here but I’m enjoying each one.
3hrs 33 min. that was amazing you guys did awesome job
Something just occurred to me : how come you guys don’t have a large ( D8 or bigger) dozer with what some folks refer to as “swamp tracks” . Caterpillar refers to them as “ low ground pressure “ tracks . Something like that would quickly reduce your time on the jobsite in a lot of these next to impossible situations . A friendly suggestion, that’s all .
there's time limiting factors involved with all recovery's the weight of a conventional D-9 or 8 Is going to be huge besides transportation permits . last thing swamp tracks are so much wider. they would have to be removed on loading site and put back on, on recovery site then again after rescue. pure honest head thinking when trying to remove ❤ good safe tactics . OJT. works the best
I'm guessing 6 hrs 33 min 28 seconds. Y'all did a bang up job, I was yelling at the guys standing to close to the cable while being pulled also. So Glad no one got hurt, Thank You for another great video
Love that bouquet of flowers. Stay safe guys!
I NEW YOU GUYS WOULD DO IT. AWESOME 👍👍👍👍👍THUMBS UP👍👍👍👍👍
I just saw a comment about getting together with Matt's off road recovery. That's a heck of a idea I just watched them rescue a old Suzuki Keep, the golden nugget, and I was thinking the same thing. Heavy D check them out they really do some off the wall stuff. I think it would be right up your alley.
Guaranteed he knows about Matt, I'll bet that would be an epic recovery.....

I'm not surprised that going back was easier. During a lot of heavy deep snow recoveries they have to go backwards because the snow packs up in front of them. We have had times where no amount of force will make them go forward. But as you proved again itcan take almost nothing to go backwards. Great job guys.

21:00> Texas oil patch would double-line a 1" cable in that muck: after the load was transferred, if possible, to a smaller truck via Rig Mats / Board Road. Empty moves easier.😊 Did you ever cut a cable out of a truck just to retrieve the driver? It ain't perty!
Really hard work.... 🤘🏻Keep up doing hard jobs 😊 you are my inspiration from now.... Merry Christmas 🎄☃️ sir to you and your beautiful family
I've seen you come down south around my neck of the woods to help after hurricanes also. I love that you care about people and willing to help others. My hats off to you and the gang.

You guys inspire people to be better people! Very fun group of great people! Keep up the good work!
When you make these videos . let people know what year and d ate love to watch you guys. God bless 😂
Thair is a way to weeve those back together i used to do it on the tow boat with our locklines...
I been lurking for a while and one thing I can say is you guys always "BRING THE POWER!!!" to these sorts of events!! AMAZING!
i haven't figured it out yet what got me locked in with your videos. i am a 60 yr old women, the things you young men do really amazing me.there's not one favorite person i like better, everyone on the team is diff. Oh btw heavy D where ever you go you need to pack a lunch. all i can do is sit back and enjoy the videos, maybe one day i will win something. wouldn't that be pretty cool, kat
6.5 hrs start to finish you guys are that good cool to watch either way.
You've got it all backwards (couldn't resist). Very cool recovery.
I had to recover my own 5 ton recently. I pulled it out going forward, now looking back...we should have went out backwards, from the direction it went in the hole...lol The cable clamps work real good, but we like to use a molly hogan cable fix when we break cables, then clamp the tail! Awesome Recovery!
5h45 minute
Always try to pull from the same way it went it, whenever possible. Nicely done
Hello Jeremy, you seem so amazing when I saw your profile I love your comment!!
If you're sinking in mud, don't go any further.

Big respect for the Spartans warriors graffiti. I am from Sparta so glad to see that my American friends!
Wow! impressive job pulling out the rear. in physics, it might be explained: the mass moment of inertia for all the weight, is located on the wheels. BUT, in front of most wheels, was a barrier in the dirt blocking the pull - meaning, the tires would need to be lifted up to overcome the Barrier. OR, in a lot of applications, shovel out the material in front of the tires (did it a lot with stuck in snow - much easier to be pulled out). you may consider in future, remembering to clear the material in front of the wheels first. Smart to realize, pull it out the way it went in - the wheels were not as blocked. enjoy watching your videos!
3hrs 26min. Love seeing you guys helping friends and strangers. You’re a true benefit to your community. Wish that could be said about more people but it makes the good ones stand out, even more.
2 hrs 55 minutes
The drone shots of the trucks driving on the roads is amazing, just looks so sick!
I grew up in a Jeep dealership and have done a lot of winching. I was trying to figure out the semi pull. Kept watching that hay lean. Then my husband pops up and says, why don't they just unhook that trailer and pull it out from behind Then they can haul the cab anywhere they want. He amazes me sometimes. Just amazes me.
Nice job! You guys are fun to watch. A little goofy.. but fun to watch.
It's interesting to see how you do your recoveries vs the majority of companies. Most folks would say "ok unload the trailer, take it as a loss or recover it on your own time" and just get the truck and trailer out. Also I gotta say it was pretty optimistic to not try a couple snatch blocks from the get go on this one.
5 hours 45 minutes. You guys have a great operation, team and niche to be in. I love your personal stories you share along the way.
Hello are you single
5 1/2 hours is my guess, I love these type of videos I could watch them all day
YOUR CREW AND YOURSELF NEED TO BE PAID..... BIG TIME....
THE TALL BLND RANGY YNG GUY,,,,,HE'S A WORKER...
You guys seriously rock. 3 hours and 17 minutes would be my guess. Best KZhead channel and guys by far. Good job
One of the first things I was taught about recovery is to bring it out the way it came in.
Or dig out in front which wasn't an option. No disrespect meant, but yeah rear exit was the only option here.
Yup and maybe unload it
Suction was in addition to the weight of the truck.
@@dsarg82 thats what I dont understand. Unload the 30 tonne of hay....maybe take the trailer off the truck too 🤷♀️
Halez, gravity. Take the weight off. Pulling a loaded 18 wheeler typically leads to damage equipment.
Have you guys ever thought about or looked into getting a logging skidder to use in recovery work? They are insane in the mud.
Great job of a vlog awesome thumbs up 👍 and peace out dude
You guys are really great at this stuff and lots of other cool stuff. When I did farm work and wed get stick in the spring mud we built a sled. It was a 4 X 8 sheet of 3/4 steel plate that we could chain to the front of stuck vehicle that would get under the front end. Because for the way we bent the plate it would ride up and over the mud so we we not digging the front wheels into more mud. It almost floated the front end up and made my life so much easier. I know it sounds stupid but it saved me hundreds of hours over the years. Yours would probably have to be a little wider and longer for your much bigger equipment/vehicles. If you have the metal laying around you might want to try it, or maybe it sounds to recheck for you folks. It was a heavy piece to get into position ill tell you that. Great videos, I watch them all.
Five hours and thirty two minutes. Another brilliant recovery. Great work!
I watch your shows All the time very entertaining.
I was a 63EH8 (tank mechanic and recovery specialist) I operated a M88, you guys should check it out coolest vehicle in the army.
Always fun watching these recoveries. Gettin stuff done and havin fun!!
I love how far rechargeable, cordless power tools have come. I have a few I still wonder how we ever survived without.
If working in a shop all day they aren't needed, I know plenty of folks who don't own cordless. Myself personally I own both air and cordless as they both have their pros and cons.
@@dieseldabz7104 agreed! But we own a working horse farm, Two F-350 trucks I use for hauling hay, horses, obviously horse trailers, flatbeds, and so on. Plus I use my trucks in the field as well. My husband still works full time, typically 6 days a week and these days (post Hurricane Florence) I take care of all the horses various smaller livestock and farm chores. So cordless power tools have made my life, so much easier as well as cut the time down on, on so many of the jobs I have to do in the field where hand tools could only go before. Even just changing a tire on my truck if a mishap in the field or even on the road, and hauling a horse trailer is a fraction of the job it once was for me, since I go no where without my cordless impact. And being as I not a big woman, and my workouts are moving 1,000-1,600 lb obnoxious horses (we are an equine rescue these days, where I rehab, train, or retrain abused, neglect case, last chance or feedlot saves), 80lb square bales or 50 lb feed bags, changing a tire on either of my F-350’s is a task. One now not as daunting with the cordless impact to break the nuts. As well as drilling through electric poles we reuse for fence posts to hang bull gates or run fencing on. You use to have to use an old style hand drill since you need long wood boring bits, even early cordless drill didn’t have enough power. New ones do. I’m also a cert Farrier having done my schooling in 1999, and using a cordless angle grinder has completely changed how quickly I could cleanly trim and or shoe horses. And that’s just a fraction of the way cordless tools have changed my life. My Hobart welder is still my favorite shop tool, and I can’t see the day a cordless welder of its capabilities that’s affordable on our out of pocket budget that is, would ever be enough to replace that beast. So I agree, I do have shop tools, that live in the shop and could never be, or don’t need cordless replacements outside of it. But the ones we have, have truly made my life in particular so much easier and time management and workload/capabilities 10 fold!
Doing it with a handsaw and one wrenches would probably have added a bunch of time...
What about some large sand ladder type things chucked on the back of your rig may save some time great vids bro
Cool stuff to anchor too - steel fence post, tumbleweeds 😂😂😂😂
6:42:08 is the time I think it took you guys to pull out the truck & loader. We love watching you guys. Such a positive influence on todays young men. You show hard woman be fun. Thank you for ALL that you do.
I'm not going to attempt to read all the other comments, because I am already old, and I'd rather not come to my end reading all of it. Nothing personal, and you boys have good intentions, but ya'll ain't using your thinkin caps ya'll were given. Ideally the fastest and safest way would have been to mat out to the trailer and unloaded it. Then lift the trailer off the fifth wheel, and then you could have snatched the truck out easily. Then hit the trailer from the rear, and ya'll boys been drinking cold beers in half the time. Without near the damage to your equipment, are taking a chance on someone getting cut n half by cables snapping. And if you will carry some old moving blankets to throw on top of your cables and straps you'll save damage to equipment and possibly save someone's life are grave bodily injury
You need to try and get your hands on one of those supersized alaskan ken worth 963 should be amazing for recovery
From Philippines im salute you sir good work..
Heavy D-"give her the old tug n rub" LMAO.....when he says that the look diesel dave gave him was hilarious! 😆
Dave must be the only guy who can drive as he takes over every thing for show.
Man, I love y’all’s videos. The production of the KZhead channel is even better then y’all’s TV show. I am honestly interested to see how the tv show is gonna do with this KZhead providing a much better in-depth view of the company, projects, the team, and the vehicles then the tv show has ever done. My guess for the recovery is going to be 3h and 27 minutes. 👊🏻
I had Thanksgiving dinner in the fillmore chevron when I was hauling produce from Yuma back to Canada
