I'm convinced. Cold weather freezes the part of your brain that houses common sense!
Wouldn't be surprised with most of these people in this video.

Technically that's true.
The cold forces out bodies to shut Down, and mental capacity is indeed limited in freezing conditions.
@lahokc59 LOL
lahokc59 hope to continue hearing from you
In case you haven’t heard, common sense is not too common
19:33 that's the saddest thing I've seen all day, he's literally pulling his car with his bare hands.
poor guy i wish him the best.
Seemed pretty hopeless sadly
It seems like he’s more holding his car.
Like a goodbye.
He knows it’s hopeless so he wants to wish it farewell, holding till the very end.
I feel so bad for the last guy... it was probably his wife's brand new car.
@@gearjammer2107 or his girlfriends....😳
@@4wheelsonmywagon733 _Former_ girlfriend’s.
So heart warming to see everybody pitching in to help out that guy in the last clip. Restores your faith in humanity.
It's too bad more people don't help each other out.
Everyone ran left him sitting there looking into the hole lol couldn’t have saved the vehicle but damn coulda been there for dude hopefully got him a ride back
A ride back woulda been nice
Last clip, guy was thinking he could save it himself lol Everyone else like I'm outta here!
The guy trying to hold the car above the ice..... Priceless
Trying to be superman I guess haha
Perhaps he knew that gravity would not apply for a short time in that area and wanted to be ready to save his car.
I blame the ice road trucker show for these vehicles being on the ice, and Trump as well
@@harrysweeten9417 what does trump have anything to do with it
@@blakejonesmusic1456 Why not Trump? Everybody blamed Obama for everything when he was in office? Even Obama made a video of himself trying to dunk a cookie too big for a glass of milk and said "Thanks Obama" :D
I thought he was going to do the proper ritual and go down with the vehicle. I hope he loses his captain's license for that slight of respect.
😆😆😆The Blue Ford pickup. 😆😆
Who'd they call?
"Let's Make it Worse Towing"
I kept waiting to see Moe slap Curly with the tow chain.😆😆
Haha
A guy I know has a jeep he uses for ice fishing. It's not street legal, only for the ice. The only thing different about it is about 75 ft of rope tied to the bumper with a buoy on it so when it goes through the ice he can find it again in the spring. He's retrieve it twice now. Takes about an hour to get it running again. Of course he's completely insane but then that helps.
Holy cow haha. Dedication at its finest
How does he get it out?
With a barge? Or just do some jeep jiggin until he hits shore?
@@ronfox5519 asking the important questions!
Lmao a jeep with a bobber
The gas and oil marinate the fish. Makes them taste like Nascar.
In most states insurance won't pay anything for a vehicle that goes thru the ice, and the state will make you recover it.
Bingo!
Remember to subscribe.
Yip. Take Florida for an example...
They expect them... to recover m e ?
- car which sunk and then was crushed by another sinking car, what a coincidence
Surely that just means there's a shitton of cars at the bottom of lakes?
That’s not entirely true, there are quite a few insurance providers that do cover vehicles that fall through ice, also, several states will allow the owner to make its own arrangements to retrieve the vehicle in a timely matter, some states will give the owner a few days or so before stepping in and retrieving it for them this slapping them with the bill, the only fines the owner might receive is if there’s any pollutants leaking from the vehicle.
3:05 Used chevy truck, slight water damage. body in good condition.
Probs what happened....lol
comes with the optional aquarium.
But needs a window
Engine only flooded once . . .
nice and clean though. @@carlbruschnigjr1757
lets get a 200 foot running start at it and then all scratch our heads and wonder gee jim idk why the chain snapped? some of these guys are mental lol.
Mental is one way of putting it......
i could've sworn they learned on the first one- nope! "the run wasn't long enough! get a bigger start and it'll pull right out!" morons.
It's just basic physics. Even if you had a super chain and a fully loaded dump truck, it would fling that sinking truck like a yoyo and probably total it. Those guys are dumber than Corey and Trevor
The truck is remarkably durable.
And no blanket or anything over the strap, going to take a leg off.
That F350 could have been saved. If they weren't tugging at 80MPH it would have pulled out
Absolutely , those dumb asses are 100% responsible for sending it to the bottom. Lets see, get a running start first with out even trying to just pull it out, break the chain..... fix the same chain,,,,, try the exact same thing,,,
I was wondering when they would learn to put multiple chains on it. They didn't.
Also wondering why, with a lake with a maximum depth of 36', they didn't leave chains on it when they had the chance. Now who wants to go down there and hook 'em up?
al fresco... because they were retarded !
Yep. They are very retarded
Wonder if the guy ever tried to remove it from the lake I mean I doubt it but still wonder
I know a guy that drove his brand new, 50'000.00 dollar truck onto a frozen lake.
It fell through, insurance did not cover the loss, plus he had to pay almost 40'000.00 dollars in recovery fees, including fines for contaminating the lake....
It definitely is not good for the bank account to be careless....lol

Damn !
But it was funny right?
He should've filmed it and posted it to UA-cam. Could have recovered some of the money.
Let me guess he has 4 kids.
This was an educational video for me as I never knew there was a machine made to pull vehicles out of the water.
It's pretty crazy isn't it?
Rumor has it that the updated crane has a giant zip lock bag full of rice to lower the trucks into...
@@Fowlgun LOL! You got me with that one
@Fowlgun LOL
they could have gotten the blue Ford truck out if they didn't spend all day getting the tow chains hooked up
Most guys don't realise that there is a fine balance between speed and quality. In an instance, like these, there is a very fine line where speed definitely takes over the quality of the connections.
That was an excellent example of aggressive incompetence at work. Feel bad for the guy that owned the truck...considering it was saveable.
Bill Taylor they are idiots for pulling to hard they would have gotten the truck out if they just pulled on it gently lol
+Brandon Falardeau Momentem= more force, More Force= it will come out easier, Less Momentem= Less force, Less force= A lot easier to pull out... So which sounds better? More force or less force...
Ive pulled alot of trucks and equipment out of the mud and snow the only way that has worked for me is to rip on it.
1:44 I can see it now
"What are y'all doing way out here?"
"Car fishing"
"What???"
May happen on occasion lol
😂😂😂
Not as big as the dodge i caught the other day...
And I swear the Mitsubishi I own jumped out at me...
That Ford Super duty is still running around under Lake of the Woods!
The ghost truck
Yep Davey Jones is driving it
That ford couldn't drive on dry let alone underwater. If anything it drowned itself out of shame...I bet there was a Chevy parked somewhere to give the ford driver a ride home :D
Longs it's floating around cause we all know ford's won't run that long hahaah
I remember decades ago as a kid going out on the ice in Maine fishing. This particular time there was a bit less than a foot of ice as I remember towards the beginning of ice season. We were out a ways from shore and along comes a giant pickup truck with oversized tires crossing near us maybe 50 feet away - couldn't believe someone would take that out on ice at such little thickness for such a vehicle. We're over probably 70+ feet of water and as the truck passes we can hear the ice buckling, sounds like thick rope stretching beyond its limit and the ice is spider webbing. My dad called for us to lay flat to help disperse our weight in case it broke everywhere. I remember laying there scared as I could ever be. Fortunately it passed by and didn't go through and kept going down the lake out of view. I've learned ice thickness varies a lot, especially on big lakes, pressure ridges can occur causing ice to be thin and ice can be very thin near where an inlet or outlet occurs - any moving water under ice is dangerous to cross over. I've known people over the years who have gone through. Some made it out and some didn't. For me, I like over 8 inches to walk on and over a foot to snowmobile - I did take my truck across our lake one year it stayed 40 below 0 for 2 weeks and we had over 42 inches if ice that year - probably wouldn't do it again, though. It's ok to be out there but use good judgment and be safe.
Pressure ridges are definitely the thing that most don't think about sadly
yeah, I didn't know about them either until a teacher from my junior high school brought it up (years ago). It's a reason I wouldn't cut across big lakes on the ice. The footage at 7:00 look just like such a thing... big lake (you can't see shore from anywhere on it) and the way the ice had built up along a ridge where his back tires are, then on the other side of it looks different somewhat and drops down again.
for me (also in Maine) 4in is a risky walk, 5-6 is walking and 8-12 is sledding. seems like that wouldn't be enough but believe me it is
@sstrtmatter2158 Glad to hear that some teachers are teaching real life material
Yeah, blue ford truck. lol. 10 guys and none had a clue
Kinda makes you think about all those jokes about "how many _____ does it take to do ________"
@103CiHD haha
Found In Pond Drowned just doesn't have the same ring to it.
you are just as dumb as those people in this video
More importantly, none had a winch.
At the end, that guy was trying to pull his car out of the ice with his bare hands...draw your own conclusions
I conclude that he forgot to take his superman pill that morning
That first clip had a better outcome than I imagined possible.
True
The last guy was like “ No, Jack I’ll never let you go” LMAO
LOL Made my day!
Awesome love it.
I feel like his dog was in the car 😥
Probably just his ugly stick lol
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
Alot of people don't realize that their insurance will not cover you for any accident you have on the ice, that's collision or sinking.
Ya, most people don't seem to care if they are dumb enough to drive on the ice in the first place.
Totally wrong, there are quite a few insurance providers that do cover vehicles that fall through ice, if your policy has comprehensive, then there’s a good chance it will be covered.
Wtf was last guy doing did he think he was gonna pull it out by hand lmao 😂
He forgot to take his superman pills that day....lol
It's like that scene from Titanic, "I'll never let go Jack, I'll never let go." And then she let go. Blub blub.
Idk mom an dad are going to b mad
Sometimes parting is painful. He was saying I'll never forget you!!!
@@stumarston6812 ahhh yes that actually does make sense. Watching this back again at 18:31 you can see he actually does lift the whole vehicle up some haha! He really wanted to save it
0:59 If the ice opened up around the gray truck both vehicles could have gone to the bottom of the lake. That was scary.
It sure was scary
I've read that popular ice fishing areas have this problem alot. At days end, many people leave at the same time. They create waves in the ice. When those waves collide, the ice weakens or even breaks.
I'm also heard that can happen with a single vehicle driving too fast.
Things to take on the ice with you . . . 100 feet of clothesline and an empty plastic jug. When the vehicle breaks through, tie the clothesline to the bumper, pay out the line as the vehicle sinks, then tie the other end to the plastic jug. It makes it easier for the diver to find the vehicle.
Sounds like a smart idea! Never would have thought of that.
I used to work in vehicle recovery in my much younger days. Pulled a lot of vehicles out of lakes. Had one numbskull who would lose at least one car a year while ice fishing. Finally told him to use the clothesline and jug. saved him about $1000 in diver and equipment times fees.
Amazing how some people do not learn....
Things to take on the ice with you, nothing! Just don't go.
@@alvaroakatico9188 That may be the safest answer for the general population
morale of the story: don't drive on thin ice
EXACTLY!!

How about just don't drive on ice at all?
@@MrYougotcaught when its thick enough its fine
No ice is guaranteed, even after weeks of -30 , you never know if there's a fracture, air picket, void,
What are ya willing to bet with ....
That's an awesome recovery rig. Looks like the truck drove in a perfectly cut square hole just small.enough for the rig to fit over.
It sure is a unique rig
Great video. The last one kinda da got me though they guy wouldn't hold the camera still long enough to see much and yes I agree they could have got the blue Ford out

Wonder what they’ll make of the cup holder...
No kidding
I thought everybody knew you dont hit a chain hard they will snap everytime.
Apparently not sadly. They chain making companies probably love these fools though.
They are lucky someone wasn't killed when that chain broke...
Not smart
Snap-loading any kind of tether is a bad idea. Snap-loading a metal chain is a _very_ bad idea.
@@Attic2U they are idiots to be out there and not know how to pull out a stuck truck.
Fair
Chain breaks so the solution is adding another vehicle to yank on the same chain with? Brilliant.
Natural selection has sadly been inhibited by mankind's nature to save the stupid.......
All these incidents were 100% preventable
100% preventability will not stop utter idiots though..............I am always amazed that the human gene pool is as diverse as it still is.....I would have thought the idiots would have weeded themselves out by now.

Hey Viktor I bet that you can't drive that 80,000 lb. (36,000 kg) bulldozer across that thin ice.
The hell I can't, here hold my Vodka.
Likely exactly how it went.
Ed Jones RIGHT,,,!
That couldn't be what happened ;) nobody hands over their vodka for a stunt like that, unless it's to have it topped off. It would have been, "The hell I can't, here top this off for me, I can't figure out which eye to close to get the bottle to line up."
I am sure the conversation went exactly like this.
Hahahaha 😂😂😂
Here hold my vodka!!
19:33 "I promise. I will never let go, Jack. I’ll never let go."
Pretty much haha
That is EXACTLY what I was thinking... and all that cheezy soundtrack music
And then she let go. 👍
Antonio Porras same old same old 😉😂
God loves fools because he created a lot
You'd think they'd check the thickness of the ice before driving tons of weight over the ice. Darwin award winners right here.😂
That would be the smart thing to do.
Speaking as an Australian ,because we just don’t get weather cold enough to freeze lakes over ,I still find it a dice rolling exercise driving on ice no matter how thick it is
I live where the ice gets over 24 inches thick and even I think it isn't worth rolling the dice. I was just out ice fishing last week and I came across a small hole (foot by foot roughly) in the ice caused by a hot spring. The ice was undoubtedly a lot thinner around that hole, so it could have been dangerous to hit with a vehicle.
That last guy was like " No, no im not gonna let go, i just changed the oil and this is a brand new set of tires and....and...and......damnit my fleshlight is in the center console....NOOooooooooooo"
Can't forget the full tank of fuel haha
I loved the last guy holding on to his vehicle until the end
That is perseverance.
Don't go Bessie! Lol
Steve Leahy I'll never let go jack! Lol
mark demelo and then she let’s go
What a lot of people do not realize is that even if the ice is several FEET thick, deep snow can weigh down the ice, and if there is a crack or a spring, fresh water is atop the ice. If that water is more than a a few inches deep, you're screwed, a typical truck having about 8" of clearance only. I have gone through a handful of times with my sled- water atop the thick ice. I've even done that a few times on cross-country skis. If I am on a snowmobile or in a vehicle, I stick to marked trails and roads, otherwise you are flirting with disaster. 10 years ago my neighbor was out and both he and his girlfriend went to the lake bottom, both dying.
Ice safety/knowledge is soooo important. Lives are at risk and people don't realize it...
Attic2U amen brother
One more good one for the forth time! Nice looking GMC!
lol
In the future when theres no more ice and water in the middle of lakes the cars not recovered are gonna be found at the deepest parts of the bodies of water and someone is gonna look at that and wonder how the car got all the way out there without really bad damage or being blown up it will be hard for them to imagine water or ice as being there.
Tis an interesting concept to think about
18:32.....dude....sing with me....let it goooooo! Let it gooooooo! The cold never bothered me anyway!
lol
Tune in next week for another exciting episode of "idiots on ice"
There is a never ending supply of those, isn't there?
Wait till spring and the new episodes of idiots at the boat ramp
Too true!
It's Soo satisfying to watch a full sized truck go to the bottom of a lake! A full sized truck never used for what it was made for. Only used to tailgate everyone else on the road and annoy everyone around with screaming exhaust pipes. Now it's at the bottom of a lake! I love it! Now Im going to have a wonderful day!
I would agree that it appears that a disproportionate number of people driving big pickup trucks drive rather annoyingly. One time while driving an icy highway it was funny to count how many "invincible" pickup trucks were in the ditch compared to 2 wheel-drive vehicles in the ditch - the trucks outnumbered any other type of vehicle by a lot.
13: 54 I'm Sorry, Truck! I'M SORRY! (insert Titanic music)
Lol. GOtta see that.
I love you truck
Its not the blue jewel of lake woods
snowmobile yes, 4wheeler yes, The car you drive to Work? He'll No!
Basically.
I asked my insurance company about this one time. They told me the minute your wheels go on this ice your insurance policy is void lol.
he who? who is he? what will he negate?
Denise Trine and imagine still paying your vehicle off 4 years after it sank 😆
I’d say he’ll yah
I was sorry to see them fall through, but there is nothing to do but watch and feel their situation.
Pretty much
I'm amazed at how people do not even take the most basic precautions, and
they end up immediately wishing they
had not been so careless. those were
some nice vehicles too.
I agree
I keep a window breaking hammer in my truck for such an event. It's in the center console so it can be reached by all seats.
That is one solution
That second one was just full on crazy like the whole car was in the water
Bailey Hooper I don't even get why they pulled it out lol its obviously a complete loss
Z STRODE Legally they have to pull the vehicle out. There are HUGE fines that would be laid against someone if they were caught leaving a vehicle sunken in a lake.....likely even jail time. Some may say that it isn't that big of a risk....but it is huge. If your vehicle sinks, you will be caught eventually.
Someone slept through physics class.
Don't most people sleep through Physics Class?
Scott Diamond nope. Physics are interesting ;)
@Calais Xiong I wouldn’t take my DD out on the ice if it were a _yard_ thick. Auxiliary vehicle, a snowmobile or a beater truck, is the tool for that.
@Calais Xiong lol that’s the only time physics you need to know :>
@@shane99ca I would take it out on 13 no problem
A lot of these guys are probably more worried about goin home telling the other half they lost the family wheels under the ice....lol
LOL
"Hey Buddy does your insurance agent watch UA-cam?" "Yeh he's a big fan, why?" "Your screwed!"
LOL, that would be the worste!!!
Idiot - "Hey, I'd like to submit a claim...."
Agent - "I think I saw a video of you the other day....."
Idiot - "$%#*&$"
0:15 if the truck being pulled fell completely through the ice it could have pulled the other truck right into the water!!!
skojo3e that's what I was thinking the whole time dam thay would be a shitty cold day
The brains don't always seem to have the on switch on the on position on all human beings sadly...
To pull a truck out like that they will probably have to wait till spring, then the can get fines from the DNR an the diving company... That probably costs more than both trucks
exactly
You can still retrieve it through the ice. Just pick a spot more than 50 feet from the hole and set up the operation there. I used to do this kind of work. Cold, but it paid well, especially when I was the diver.
Sad... a 25 ft. 4"" wide tow strap would have saved the truck! Who would be out on the ice with a 3/8'' tow chain?? Just crazy.
Lack of preparation No boy scouts in this video
I have no idea what youre trying to tell the rest of the internet. Maybe switch over to metric units will help.
Hahaha the guy at the end trying to lift his car back from the ice as passers by just casually stroll by🤣
LOL
"You won't lose your vehicle through the ice if you don't drive it onto the ice" - Thinking Meme
Very true lol
I agree, all that slack and with a CHAIN no less, what did they expect. Two vehicles hooked together would more than likely pulled it out had they just "pulled it" instead of pretending they were at a tractor pull.
On the bright side, theres now some structure down there for the fish lol.
Tractor pulls......now there is an idea for a new video for my channel.....thanks man.
Nunya Bitness Unless it’s in Minnesota. You have 48 hours to get your vehicle out and if not the DNR does it and sends you the bill.
Where was that

Lake of the Woods is in Ontario near the Manitoba border
bore a hole in the ice , wrap a chain around a 4x4 and stick it through the hole and use it to anchor a winch or come-a-long

Never have heard of that idea before.
U would need 24k lbs winch

But go for it guys I enjoy the videos.
LOL
At 10:24 is a Convert-A-Truck helping the rescue party, Reminds me of the Kirkfield Ontario, convert a truck, when It fell thru the ice on Canal lake, cost 1,000$ to get it back to shore in 1990
Ouch. I can only imagine how much it would cost nowadays.
Memo to self - never drive on ice. And if I do, don't expect to pull it out of the water by the bumper @18:53
Probs a smart move.
Don't know why I don't do this, looks like so much fun.
Perhaps you have a bigger brain that the people in this video haha
Intelligent people who drive on icy lakes and rivers! Now the fuel and oils from the truck will be in the lake. SMART!
EXACTLY
Mark D yeah and the pipeline doesn’t help either when they explode or leak into the lakes lol
It is such small amounts that it do not matter - it'll get diluted very fast.
Yah no. That’s a little off
ZZZZZZ
NEVER DRIVE ON ICE MAN IT NEVER FREEZES EVEN ALWAYS THIN SPOTS ONE DAY YOU WILL LOSE YOUR VEHICLE.
True dat
Meh
why people would drive their car onto ice at all is beyond me
It doesn't seem like the smartest move ever, does it?
Is this some kind of northern insurance fraud type deal? In Florida they "park" them in lagoons. Up north they "park" them under a frozen lake. Gotta admit that's classy. And won't be found till spring at best.
They drive out to ice fishing spots... Very common.
@@Tyler-zw4kq Gotcha. Not a fisherman so it has no appeal to me. Thanks for the info.
If you’ve never been cookin fried chicken in the middle of the night in a ice fishing shack listening to ice expanding you’re missing out
Unless it's persistent subzero temperatures becoming a well known passage for vehicles with the guarantee of safety in the seasonal time period, be doubtful. And the larger the body of water, the greater the chances of the ice being on the move. Gaps can open up, freeze over a little bit and be camouflaged by a layer of snow.
It is amazing how people don't think of these things. Thanks for mentioning them.
my good friend sunk his work truck a huge diesel this week, when it could of been all avoided if he had not been lazy and started up his old light jeep, the dumb ass was also drunk. Let's just say he is now unemployed.
Sounds like someone had some fun explaining to do. Too bad they didn't get it on tape or he could have submitted it to me to create a new video. hahaha
what about drilling hole 20f away , throwing spread anchor or 1" rebar in , attaching sling and use come along puller?
Might work
at the 1:50 min mark, the guy on the pole, I did that job with my dad in the early 1990s. we used a 2-ton king crane on a 1970s IH cab-over. he has been retrieving vehicles from lake Simcoe since the late 60s. cool job with lots of gruppys, people are strange.
Sounds like an interesting job!
@@Attic2U lots of prep work but still fun.
I bet
this is why when ice fishing, i refuse to take a vehicle (unless a snow machine) out onto the ice.
Just be aware of the thickness and quality of the ice. This happens to careless people. It's not that hard to know when to use a car and when not to on the ice.
Chuck D oh yeah i know up in this bay that i vacation at on Lake Huron, they'll have semi trucks on the ice for a festival. it will be like 30" thick in some spots.
Michigander tawas bay or Saginaw bay
wishinifishin517 Tawas but im sure it happens in every little fishing port across michigan
Michigander I go to the perch festival too
Was that last guy actually trying to hold up his vehicle while it was going through the ice? Now that's funny.
I forgot to eat his Wheaties that morning...

Watching the cranes pulling out the trucks gave me so much anexity
I'd have to agree with that!
when ever me and my dad went ice fishing I now see why he refused to drive his truck on the lake. it's also expensive to have your vehicle fall through the ice.
It is definitely expensive lol
just a couple bucks lol
LOL
@AllstateInsurance Am I covered for mayhem, like this?
hahaha, I think they would just start laughing at anyone that asks that
@@Attic2U you are covered here. most people dont know this, but you are even covered if you are drunk and wreck your truck. Google it. It doesnt matter how much of a dumbass you are, you are covered with insurance if you have full coverage.
I’m an adventure seeker. I love taking risks and challenges, especially driving on frozen lakes. I push my luck when driving on thin ice. I get thrills and chills when I hear the ice cracking under my vehicle. Then it gets more exciting when my vehicle goes through the ice and slowly fills with cold water and finally sinks below the ice. To avoid mayhem like me get Allstate.
Watching the chevy pickup sink at about 14:00 should be a lesson to all; choose your rescue team wisely.
And make sure they aren't all drunk lol
Amazing compilation!
Thanks a lot!
I think that guy in the end almost pulled his vehicle back out. Or was he trying to push it in?
I agree. If he pulled a tiny bit harder he definitely would have turned into superman and pulled his vehicle out....hahahah
Safety always first!! Live to fish another day
And if you do this, the fish will not die from poisoning and live another day to be caught another day.
In Northern States the ice gets thick enough to support most vehicles if you know where to go and what to watch for. Too many neophytes without the knowledge of the ice venture out onto the lakes, when they have no clue what they are doing.
I use to venture out onto the lakes when I was younger. Now I stay off the lakes. Just not worth the risk.
Even where I live in Canada I don't venture onto the ice on a vehicle because we have too many warm springs that come up from under the lakes/reservoirs that create holes and thin spots in the ice. They make for great truck-devourers.
So far this winter 2020 I've heard of 1 car, 2 snowmobiles and 1 mini snow cat going through the ice the two snowmobiles both resulted in fatalities and the mini snow cat was owned by a salvage company trying to retrieve the car, it wound up on the bottom in 20 feet of water, but the operator was able to escape, he was treated for hypothermia.
I honestly with they would publish the stories a little more widely across the country so it would force people to think about the risks that they were taking when they don't have the proper knowledge about ice safety.
the one video with the black truck that sunk in the lake wtf why did they try and pull it out that fast i mean duuhhh i think they did it on purpose?
Exactly, though looked like all these idiots deserved to take a total loss on there vehicles.
Some would argue that anyone that is driving on the ice is purposefully trying to sink their truck...
I drive big trucks on the ice where i live. Take over 80,000lbs across the lake. Stay on the road an know the ice depths.
There are so many factors that most people fail to pay attention to sadly.

I have a feeling the last video of the guy had told his wife he was at work that's why he held on to it till it was totally underwater LOL how do I explain this to the wife
And then he also has to explain to his boss why he is driving a new car all of a sudden, even when the boss knows he can't afford it haha
i pissed myself laughing. thank you for this compilation.
No problem!
That's right. Just drive on a semi-frozen lake. What could possibly go wrong? If your vehicle falls through the ice,, just give it time. You'll be able to get your vehicle out when the weather warms up and the ice starts thawing out.
lol
Guy at end MY CAR IS SINKING Guy moving tent YEP SON IT IS 😂😂😂
HAHA, the guy forgot to eat his Wheaties before heading out that day.
The last vid, "How am i going to tell my wife?"
I wish we had her reaction on camera too
How much damaged are vehicles when they get completely submerged underwater? What works and what doesn’t work after?
A lot of damage occurs, but the damage is WAY worse if it was running when it was submerged. Insurance won't cover it though.
