Awesome job alex keep it up✌️👍

      Someone who knew the wreck was there, and did not have keys to the cabinets, brought a crew during the night (lots of work lugging all the tools and parts up the grade.) If it was the business owner, they forgot the keys, keys were at the hospital with driver, brought keys for the wrong truck, or wanted it to look like a burglary. Or some pros were tipped off - they listen to emergency scanner, have a brother-in-law in EMS, etc.

    Great to see the safety routine. Chocking a wheel before slacking, just in case (Big pain for it roll back downhill.) At almost-the-end of a long, hot, strenuous workout it would be easy to rush and forget a step. Doing the narration might help reinforce safety routines. Really enjoy the explanations of why - how the extensions are used, lifting capacity in different configurations, etc. Lots of technical info at instant recall - training and experience. Good stuff.

    Great job. Something to think about: If you had two u-bolts connected to the strap pulling the truck, to switch cables, you could maintain tension on one while you hooked up the second. Then put tension on the second, release tension on the first, disconnect the first, and continue pulling. Saves fully releasing tension when on a steep incline.
