[jez and suze]

looks too cold to hook it to the tow hith......i think there is snow in the background not sand.

[Poodroo]

[Leigh77]

You are right there Leigh77 but not just the bull bar the other guy put the snatch over his tow ball, that is another missile waiting to be fired.

[Tangles]

Comedy of errors, maybe next time he might attach a snatch strap to his recovery point before he takes his car swimming,, least it will save him getting his toes wet, think i saw some similar videos from the same event, it looked like it wasnt a fresh water stream running into the ocean either

cheers

And it's aussie!! :D

[BenDover]

HA HA, what an idiot. First it takes him hours to attach a stanchy and then he puts it onto his bullbar. He diserves it.... lol. Well atleast when he tried to cross the creek he went down stream with the current instead of straight across it or against it!!!

[Brett1907]

I just can't beleive that with that many 4WDers watching no one told him what would happen!

It no longer surprises me, the stupidity of some.

I'm interested to see what other 4WD people suggest to get this car out.
(1) - Attach the snatch strap to the correct recovery point.
(2) - Get all people away from the recovery location
(3) - Have someone in the Car in 2/3rd gear trying to assist
(4) - Lighten the load of the trapped car.

I liked the bit where old mate in the ute dropped the loop over the tow ball
Obviously never seen how much damage tow ball can do when it snaps with 20 tonne of force on it

[Mrs Ronnie H]

LMAO.

Just wonder what they tried next. ???????

Will show hubby when he comes home. Think its a ripper!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had to watch it again man thats funny... I wish i had when i rolled my cruiser on fraser on video... i almost made it all the way around and back onto my wheels again.

1. Get in the water and use a d shackle to the left hand side shackle point (to avoid rolling)
2. Use a chain not a snatchy and take your towball out and locate it to your tow pin.
3. Chuck a wet towel or something over the chain in the middle to dampn the force if it breaks.
4. Tell that yobbo to not gun his truck as fast as he can. He would have made it out if he had of taken up the slack and gone slow!!!
5. Otherwsie id do nothing and sit back watch and laugh :)

[weipa girl]

looks a little bit like the mouth of crescent head creek nsw before it enters the ocean but its not looks like it though
what a mess
