I think one of the most overwhelming things I have noticed over the years of watching the videos is just how amazingly beautiful the landscape is out west. I have traveled very briefly through Colorado, Utah (Near Zion), and New Mexico and for an east coast guy living between Washington DC and Maryland it has me really thinking about relocating.
Doesn’t it feel like we’re missing out a little on the beauty there! but you gotta remember we get 4 seasons!! They don’t. It’s beautiful to travel to and visit but embrace the east coast. I’m an east coast Maryland girl and it’s beautiful year round!
I meant to comment on that video where Hans had to repair the rancher, where he unpacked and put away HD's gear, what does does for HD is amazing, A gentlemans, gentleman!! keep up the great work Hans.
Wow I was surprised when you introduced Chase..that guy is a wild and crazy good dude. Basically watched his whole progression on UA-cam..Bad ass hooking these good folks up good looking out

Really enjoyed seeing the countryside. Glad your recovery went smooth. I rather have a pony motor to start a diesel instead of an air start any day, be thankful that most diesels nowaday have electric starters. Looking forward to your next video.

You should have Pine Hill Trailers in Lancaster County PA install some Sideways Wheels on your trailer for those tight spots. They're also working on a Sideways Track System...
You took a risk on this job... getting up the mountain rode...and your absolutely right... everyone that has owned on older piece of equipment like that...has their own way of doing..fixing or running things...you never fail to amaze me with your ability to take the impossible...and make it a positive ability!! Hats off to you and your team!!
Heavyd and the crew are amazing people. Your videos are pure awesome. And the kindness you show towards others around you is priceless, i wish you all the best in you endeavors.
@@LP-mz8rc no problem, kinda strange that the “adrenaline addiction” channel wasn’t listed in the info, nor noted in the video title. Whatever, I’m sure they all worked it out.
This is my back yard . That road is pretty dam bad . There were 3 switch back they had to navigate. And the the road is probably in the worst condition is been in years.. but there is a bulldoze. In the elkhorns. Next to helena that's been there for about 25+ years. And it's on forest service land. And the trip there is a adventure. There also tons of old mines that around there
Love yalls stuff especially the black hawk stuff back hawk mechanic of about 6 years here it’s so cool seeing people talk about it on the civilian side hope you keep up on your maintenance and don’t forget your 40/120s and 48 months for any problems inside the fuel cells!
I got such a peaceful vibe from this video. Hett is definitely a beast of a truck pulling that big 60 or 70 thousand pound tractor out. I love all the videos you and the crew upload Dave, not just the recoveries. Keep up the great content and youll keep climbing the youtube platform.
I'm an auto tech that's Been wanting to learn stuff bout diesel too and watching your channel has helped me understand them tremendously better .. I've always had a fascination with the pony motor older equipment.... Would love to see more on them. Even though I've heard how much of a pain in the ass theh are.
Sorry to say, those lawn chairs are sold out (Adamant Swinging Camping Chair). I was born and raised in Montana, nice to see you guy's out there. Lol at times I wish we would never moved from Montana. 🇺🇸 God Bless America 🇺🇸
“Heavy, Heavy he’s our man!!! If he can’t do it, no one can!!” Biggest takeaway from this episode: if you cross the straps on your sandals , you get 4 wheel drive in ‘em! Good to know 😅 Awesome work guys 👍🏻👍🏻
I’m from CT and I’m actually visiting family in Helena for the next week. Have only been to Montana when i was super little so watching your video is getting me even more excited. Crazy timing
2 years is a lot of waiting... that thing has enough power to do it just laked traction.....i would have run chain or cable to the tracks and anchored the other end and let it pull itself out
They're more than capable on pulling themselves (especially if the winch works)out the way you said I've had to accomplish the feat more than once myself!
@@muddawgkomm9642 thats what i figured ...not much sense in waiting 2 years and running all that equipment and people up there for that except youtube.... but knowing how can let you make big money sometimes. ...recalls story of guy who charged 100k to fix a dent in a 1m pressure vessel.....10 min with a blowtorch and tap it with a hammer....but he knew where and how to tap

Great video as usual. Being the one to drive that big green wrecker would b awesome. That would be great. I have always loved heavy equipment. I was an only child so I was blessed by being my dads son lol. When he was working on cars, I was there with him helping. I learned how to rebuild cars n their motors. With my dad being a heavy equipment operator on his job, I was able to learn how to drive big equipment, which I loved. I got to learn things from my mom like knitting, cooking , sewing n etc. I would have rather have been up to my elbows in grease instead lol. I envy you all being able to have n drive all of the big equipment. Since your out riggers on your wrecker we’re sinking, couldn’t you have taken one of the big timber’s from your trailer or one of the big logs that was laying around b placed it the width of your wrecker, under your outriggers to rest on, so that they would not sink into the mud. Just wondering lol. Great job n awesome video. May God bless you n the Heavy Gang.
A great crew. No yelling either. I haul heavy equipment, and no one yells unless an emergency then all shut down to see what happened. Great video. I learn a lot everytime I watch his videos.
@@NoMoreQQ as a Gen Z, I am unable to enjoy a video without being force fed an incessant stream of memes and YTP-esque edits, so the videos are perfect
I just saw those spike bold caps on the truck at 2:10 - In Germany the technical inspection service would never allow those since someone could get hurt on them. Ever since I learned that I wonder how poking yourself on a spike could be the main issue when you accidentally fall into a spinning wheel of a truck. This regulation makes so sense to me. Great content, tho.

HOOK IT TO THE C-FRAME - that the dozer blade is connected to = we had a D7 cat stuck in the mud - had to jack it up first and put big timbers underneath and in front - took 3 days to get it out ! We did not have anything with a winch to help pull - start of a new mining job in Northern BC
Because it only took them maybe a hour to pull it out. They need to learn to scout shit out before trying to haul stuff up a mountain. If they had they would not have broken the white truck. Why anyone would want to win one of their beat to shit rigs is beyond me. All the crap they do to them just puts more stress on components and makes them less useful.

Dang right out of the gate it gets hairy and you're still on a dirt road/trail. Pulling that trailer sideways got me to thinking whether your trailer has bead locks or not. Normally a trailer would have little need for bead locks but your recovery techniques are far from normal. And you brought some really big lumber to make some mats from. This is a typical recovery for your group, full.of different chapters of different procedures that must be successfully completed to make the final procedure less difficult and more successful. I love how you show all of the hard work that pays off in the end.
You guys should add the drop down wheels to maneuver the trailer left and right as seen on a Shed Depot delivery truck. Coolest option I've seen on a trailer.
I know those rims on that ford look nice and may be functional for road hauling but they are definitely the reason you got stuck on that dirt road. With 16-17in rims on 32-35in bfg at tires you could of lowered air pressure and gained 10-20% more traction.
he couldve aired down with those too but he wasnt stuck because of the tires he was stuck because the trailer was hung up because he made a rookie move and didnt make the turn right
Dude... its all staged.. That other UA-camr dug a hole and put the dozer in it. They then covered it with MUD and allot of water to make it swampy...

Cool old Cat,have a 7 just like it about 30 foot from my house,we have always used the hand crank to start the pony but you have to be careful they will kick back an break your arm.
My experience with pony motors is. It's used to heat the oil of the main engine. Main engine create so much oil pressure on a cold start that it blows the oil refinery/filters. This one was way different from what I was expecting

And I saw another comment also and I agree the team that put this video together did an outstanding job, from on the ground to in the studio....GREAT JOB EVERYBODY! Keep it up!
It says u joined 3 weeks ago and have 8 subscribers, not feeling it bro. So tired of the spam. I'm broke anyways nothing to leach from here please move on!
I'm a retired 88M from the U.S. Army. I use to operate the super het. It you were to cross your wench cables you will get better left and right movement on operations.
Love it. Been watching for the last couple of years. I just want to thank you for helping Brett, and for the motivation, to work out every day. Every time I work out, I just see you, how you go through it, and want to be just like you in size. I have been working hard since my last heart attack. I live just north of the Alberta border, and would love to meet you face to face, just once, in my life.
Don’t fall for this lets talk BS!!!! 😡
Its nice that you dig that whole to put that dozer in, so they can have content...
Chill bro

But, each and every one of them would do the exact same thing as Heavy D, if they had the resources, chance and opportunities, etc, etc. They can lie to themselves all day long and pretend that they would do something differently if they were in Heavy D's position.

A couple of maxx traxx and a hold my beer moment. No winch required. Haha. Great work and this is what I love about you guys. Just some good ole boys making things happen no one else can! Thanks for taking us along!
Really enjoyed seeing the countryside. Glad your recovery went smooth. I rather have a pony motor to start a diesel instead of an air start any day, be thankful that most diesels nowaday have electric starters. Looking forward to your next video.
LoL its faked... they just dug a hole, put the dozer in it and put some dirt on it and then add water to make it swampy. can't believe you don't see trough this BS
You should have Pine Hill Trailers in Lancaster County PA install some Sideways Wheels on your trailer for those tight spots. They're also working on a Sideways Track System...
You took a risk on this job... getting up the mountain rode...and your absolutely right... everyone that has owned on older piece of equipment like that...has their own way of doing..fixing or running things...you never fail to amaze me with your ability to take the impossible...and make it a positive ability!! Hats off to you and your team!!
95% Is fake
Heavyd and the crew are amazing people. Your videos are pure awesome. And the kindness you show towards others around you is priceless, i wish you all the best in you endeavors.
You’re gonna have to try harder than that to break that HET winch fairlead gantry I built
Way to go Hunter!!
Awesome work brotha!! And the sandals are a recovery game changer😂
Hunter and his milk remind me of Homelander.
If anyone could do it HeavyD will.
Awesome to see Chase alive and well. Been following him for years and always get kinda worried when he doesn’t upload for long periods of time.
Yep. Me too. The dude randomly posts insane, death defying vids from around the world…and then is awol for months. I feel bad for his mother…
@@pauljoseph8338 Will you give me his channel name plz?
@@LP-mz8rc adrenaline addiction
@@pauljoseph8338 Thanks! I had not got that far into video when I asked. 🤗
@@LP-mz8rc no problem, kinda strange that the “adrenaline addiction” channel wasn’t listed in the info, nor noted in the video title. Whatever, I’m sure they all worked it out.
This is my back yard . That road is pretty dam bad . There were 3 switch back they had to navigate. And the the road is probably in the worst condition is been in years.. but there is a bulldoze. In the elkhorns. Next to helena that's been there for about 25+ years. And it's on forest service land. And the trip there is a adventure. There also tons of old mines that around there
Love yalls stuff especially the black hawk stuff back hawk mechanic of about 6 years here it’s so cool seeing people talk about it on the civilian side hope you keep up on your maintenance and don’t forget your 40/120s and 48 months for any problems inside the fuel cells!
I got such a peaceful vibe from this video. Hett is definitely a beast of a truck pulling that big 60 or 70 thousand pound tractor out. I love all the videos you and the crew upload Dave, not just the recoveries. Keep up the great content and youll keep climbing the youtube platform.
I'm an auto tech that's Been wanting to learn stuff bout diesel too and watching your channel has helped me understand them tremendously better .. I've always had a fascination with the pony motor older equipment.... Would love to see more on them. Even though I've heard how much of a pain in the ass theh are.
squatch253 yt is all you need
Great edit guys! It was hilarious when Dave first tried all the levers!
This is America, as it should be.......OLD TIME WORK ETHICS, and you and your group make it so, just love the programs.
I just watched this episode where you used the "WICKED WENCH OF THE WEST" To pull out this dozer. Awesome job guys!
Yes! Finally again one of these mud recoveries.
The gas station owners must love it when your team pulls in to fuel up! Great videos sir!👍👍👍
More like o shit now we're out of diesel xD
I bet they do
Def gets more off their snacks
That’s awesome what y’all do! Getting people outta lurch. Keep on doing good work for people. Godless y’all.
20:47 To the person who inserted the sound effects, you are my spirit animal! Thank you!🤣🤣
Sorry to say, those lawn chairs are sold out (Adamant Swinging Camping Chair). I was born and raised in Montana, nice to see you guy's out there. Lol at times I wish we would never moved from Montana. 🇺🇸 God Bless America 🇺🇸
Excellent job getting to the location, and thanks for saving the dozer from its muddy grave.
“Heavy, Heavy he’s our man!!! If he can’t do it, no one can!!” Biggest takeaway from this episode: if you cross the straps on your sandals , you get 4 wheel drive in ‘em! Good to know 😅
Awesome work guys 👍🏻👍🏻
You guys end up in some of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. Thanks for the video.
Start you BSTD has been around for years & marked as that in Australia - before that they used Ether. (We used it in model aircraft fuel as well).
I’m from CT and I’m actually visiting family in Helena for the next week. Have only been to Montana when i was super little so watching your video is getting me even more excited. Crazy timing
I love how excited you guys get when an old motor turns over and starts purring. 😁
Another "Production Quality" video from the Sparks team. I always enjoy seeing a new video from your team, thanks for sharing.
2 years is a lot of waiting... that thing has enough power to do it just laked traction.....i would have run chain or cable to the tracks and anchored the other end and let it pull itself out
They're more than capable on pulling themselves (especially if the winch works)out the way you said I've had to accomplish the feat more than once myself!
@@muddawgkomm9642 thats what i figured ...not much sense in waiting 2 years and running all that equipment and people up there for that except youtube.... but knowing how can let you make big money sometimes. ...recalls story of guy who charged 100k to fix a dent in a 1m pressure vessel.....10 min with a blowtorch and tap it with a hammer....but he knew where and how to tap
My husband Edd Vanderpool aka HeavyHeavy a nickname earned in Vietnam, and I love watching you and your crew recover vehicles no one else with touch. Bless you for all you do for others!!
Beautiful David my back ground somewhere in my family tree has to be a mountain man because I loved when we were hauling feed into the foothills of Alberta I have been to BC a few times love it
The meme-worthiness of the editing has gotten to god-tier status.
You guys all ways get the job done and you always do it right keep it up man! love the vids Im excited for the black hawk!
Heavy D, please get sponsored by ICECO iceless electric freezers so I can stop recommending you get one, and you don't have to keep buying ice when you're on the road
@@nickwulf why are you promoting that shit dude? Who are you???
Love what yall doing! It's so awesome to see how yall work. Keep doing the GREAT things yall are doing!!!
Can't believe you don't see trough this BS... That other UA-camr dug a hole and put the dozer in it. They then covered it with MUD and allot of water to make it swampy... Just to make fake content
Plus at 15:14 You can see that a digger dug that hole and put the dozer in it. They then tried to cover the diggers track with those logs
Great video as usual. Being the one to drive that big green wrecker would b awesome. That would be great. I have always loved heavy equipment. I was an only child so I was blessed by being my dads son lol. When he was working on cars, I was there with him helping. I learned how to rebuild cars n their motors. With my dad being a heavy equipment operator on his job, I was able to learn how to drive big equipment, which I loved. I got to learn things from my mom like knitting, cooking , sewing n etc. I would have rather have been up to my elbows in grease instead lol. I envy you all being able to have n drive all of the big equipment. Since your out riggers on your wrecker we’re sinking, couldn’t you have taken one of the big timber’s from your trailer or one of the big logs that was laying around b placed it the width of your wrecker, under your outriggers to rest on, so that they would not sink into the mud. Just wondering lol. Great job n awesome video. May God bless you n the Heavy Gang.
A great crew. No yelling either. I haul heavy equipment, and no one yells unless an emergency then all shut down to see what happened. Great video. I learn a lot everytime I watch his videos.
Hunter is just a bad ass… love his work ethic as long as everyone else! 💪🏽
Awesome recovery!!! Good job Heavy D and crew , had me on the edge of my chair the whole way through.
As an editor, this editor needs a raise
if they didnt try to force memes and stuff, they would be perfect videos.
@@NoMoreQQ as a Gen Z, I am unable to enjoy a video without being force fed an incessant stream of memes and YTP-esque edits, so the videos are perfect

@@Garett30 2:00 HYDRATION
I just saw those spike bold caps on the truck at 2:10 - In Germany the technical inspection service would never allow those since someone could get hurt on them. Ever since I learned that I wonder how poking yourself on a spike could be the main issue when you accidentally fall into a spinning wheel of a truck. This regulation makes so sense to me. Great content, tho.
20:57 sounded like he was trying to drive the Wonka-mobile! I half expected white foam to start shooting out everywhere! 😆
I'm always amazed by how well the team works together. (Who leaves a piece of heavy equipment in stream?)

HOOK IT TO THE C-FRAME - that the dozer blade is connected to = we had a D7 cat stuck in the mud - had to
jack it up first and put big timbers underneath and in front - took 3 days to get it out ! We did not have anything
with a winch to help pull - start of a new mining job in Northern BC
Great fan,….🤳💫
You are among my special Fan's💯
That HEMTT made short work of that stuck dozer! I never cease to be awed by its pulling power!
The sound effects when your pulling all the levers was hilarious!!!
your video editor is awesome he took all your work to the next level men keep up the good work 😉
All right. Total respect.
Is it just me or are we spending more time watching fuel stops and road scenes?
Those are usually the coolest parts. I love the random shenanigans and banter.
Because it only took them maybe a hour to pull it out. They need to learn to scout shit out before trying to haul stuff up a mountain. If they had they would not have broken the white truck. Why anyone would want to win one of their beat to shit rigs is beyond me. All the crap they do to them just puts more stress on components and makes them less useful.

Dang right out of the gate it gets hairy and you're still on a dirt road/trail. Pulling that trailer sideways got me to thinking whether your trailer has bead locks or not. Normally a trailer would have little need for bead locks but your recovery techniques are far from normal. And you brought some really big lumber to make some mats from. This is a typical recovery for your group, full.of different chapters of different procedures that must be successfully completed to make the final procedure less difficult and more successful. I love how you show all of the hard work that pays off in the end.
You guys should add the drop down wheels to maneuver the trailer left and right as seen on a Shed Depot delivery truck. Coolest option I've seen on a trailer.
I know those rims on that ford look nice and may be functional for road hauling but they are definitely the reason you got stuck on that dirt road. With 16-17in rims on 32-35in bfg at tires you could of lowered air pressure and gained 10-20% more traction.
he couldve aired down with those too but he wasnt stuck because of the tires he was stuck because the trailer was hung up because he made a rookie move and didnt make the turn right
Dude... its all staged.. That other UA-camr dug a hole and put the dozer in it. They then covered it with MUD and allot of water to make it swampy...

Most of these machines burn like what, 10 gallons an hour? This looked like a pretty simple 1-2hr operation.
@@ToreDL87 3hour job and 10 hours drivin to get therere...so 10 galons x 5 vehicles x 10 hours x2 get on and return+ 3 hpurs recovery...thats is like 2.5 tone diesel

Cool old Cat,have a 7 just like it about 30 foot from my house,we have always used the hand crank to start the pony but you have to be careful they will kick back an break your arm.
My experience with pony motors is. It's used to heat the oil of the main engine. Main engine create so much oil pressure on a cold start that it blows the oil refinery/filters. This one was way different from what I was expecting
I'm bummed you guys were running around in my beautiful home state of Montana and I didn't at least see the rigs going down the road. Haha Also, I would have gladly drove my pickup and brought my RZR up to help wherever I could have. Keep up the great work guys!

Phenomenal video editing. The thing that had me legitimately laughing out loud was the sound effects when he was pulling all the levers, trying to figure out what worked and what did what.
