We have learned from past jobs in this exact hole That it’s not as easy as it looks And this quick sand is no joke So we came prepared and knew to rig for a hard pull the first time around
You make this stuff look incredibly easy! I've been watching all the major recovery channels for about 1.5yrs now. Let's just say Matt's off road recovery and some others could learn from you when it comes to getting vehicles out of bad situations like this one when it's suctioned in. I've seen channels use 2-4 vehicles and snatching blocking off trees, etc, or saying how the boom is the only good option to break suction. I have Soo much respect for you and your talents, as you are the only channel that has a single jeep, single person crew (and your wife for filming of course) manage to accomplish what the others do with 5x the equipment, 5x the staff, and major struggles. You just roll in with a single rig, think out how to do the rigging and snatch it out. I'm impressed! Keep up the good work!
All I have to say is this young man I’ve been watching your videos for at least three years you do amazing work I do similar stuff than you but only a side work and I live in Virginia I never would’ve thought a jeep gladiator could do the things I’ve watched you do with that jeep that’s all I have to say keep doing what you’re doing young man you make me proud so I know your father is!!!! You just show that anything can be accomplished with the right mindset if you’re ever near Virginia I live in a place called Glennallen I would love to show you some southern hospitality sir!!!
yeah the computers are soaked it's a right off the electronics are done to expensive to replace all the wiring and computers in it better off getting a new one
The land anchor is pretty cool, when I was in South America, we used to have to bury a tire. While that sounds pretty easy, it's not. I also really love the tethered chock blocks, simple ideas like that, really make the recoveries go a lot smoother than they could. I know I have at least one chock Block still buried in the mud up on a mountain trail somewhere.
I used to subscribe to most of the recovery channels on here but I have unsubscribed them all except you because the rest are either incompetent and or exploiting people and their arrogance goes unchallenged. You on the other hand are the real deal and your skill is unsurpassed. Great channel showing true skills.
Same here. They think they're UA-cam content stars and have turned into buffoons. The brainless watch them so they'll keep their channel. Matt's (FL) all about the job and not clowning around.
One time car insurance totaled a vehicle of mine…. Considered totaled at 50% of the value of vehicle. They paid me full value of vehicle. Took possession of vehicle… then found out where they took it to auction. Bought it in auction at 25% of the value. Repaired it…. And walked with 25% of what the insurance company paid me in my pocket.
I can tell you this if you have the right people filming your videos in the right commentary you would be bigger than Matt off road recovery and you’re going to get there one day because you do a lot better work with a lot less equipment Respect love and thunder from Virginia!!!
I watch them both, as long as you get the client out, the job is done. Honestly, I prefer winching, because I've never been one for using snatch straps. Mostly because of the terrain I'm used to. @@hhl31636
Finally I have found a recovery channel that uses physics to their advantage instead of hooking up one winch direct to a load and complaining about how recovering vehicles is stressing their equipment.
Mud & quicksand slow & steady pressure I've seen too many people hurt because they try to do by yanking them out and break all kinds of things that go flying all-over
I had one of those factory tow hooks snap off once, until that moment i had never seen a snatch block float through the air, thankfully hit the boom. Great job!
Once again Matt showed us with the right equipment and the know-how, on how to get someone out without bring 3 truck and 7 people like some other off road recovery on UA-cam do. Nice going great content.
I've just started watching these vehicle recovery shows and I see that they no longer use cables and chains but a rope technology. how long do these last as to cables...these are really a joy to watch because of how they need to think in order to get these vehicles out of these situations...keep it up
Hey new to your channel!! Never saw that land hook !! That thing was in there tight but you pulled that with raw unbridled power!!! Never saw snatch blocks used like that!! Good job!!😍😍😍
I had my truck stuck in this exact same hole! You think it's a puddle but it's several feet deep. I still have a dent on my front bumper from this. That's the 206 bridge south of St Augustine. I should have put a flag in that hole because it's been more than just the two of us!
@@JohnFL possible I know at least one of the companies down there don’t like us because we charge $250 to drive the hour and ten minutes there and they are local and charge $800 for that spot
everyone else who commented before me has said when I was thinking. -Fantastic job!! just goes to show. It’s not the size of the puddle but how deep it is!!!
I have an identical white F150, how sad this one is now totaled. It looks like it was in great shape too, no rust issues at the cab corners or rockers. I wonder if it wound up at a copart……
Awesome work! I do a lot of flounder gigging and am very much responsible for getting myself out of sand ramps in the middle of the night. Based on what I just saw, is the land anchor something I want to add to my arsenal of get out tricks?
Thank you for responding. Had a friend completely lose a truck at launch (low tide) by the time he got it recovered. It sounds/looks like a fairly inexpensive insurance policy!! Good work! @@matt.mckinzie
excellent work! Are we really better off with modern tech? My old '78 4x4 with manual hubs, manual trans and transfer case, would have just had to dry off after, no fuss with the water immersion except maybe to repack bearings and change fluids, but you could have driven it away from the site.
But it’s still totaled. Wouldn’t be the hardest job but it would not be quick & that “experienced tech” by all rights should cost more. Not worth it when there’s literally a million f-150s out there that don’t have those problems

Although you do work hard, regardless, you are the apparent king of "work smarter, not harder..."
This was the first time I said "no way"! You proved me wrong. Your skill level is off the charts!
That is some creative use of force multipliers. Also creating rear wheel stops and the "land anchor". Very creative.

That was a heck of a pull. I love what you do with running the multiple lines to reduce the load. Learn a lot watching your videos, Thanks
If you don’t
You over strain your winch motor and break lines
I appreciate you Matt. You are a Man that's not afraid to work and get dirty. I wish you great success, my friend!

In AIT, the Army teaches mechanics how to rig winch lines. You had to in order to pull hemmitts, 5 tons, tanks and others out of the mud.

Hell yeah man!!! Awesome job on that rigging.
Thanks
The last one here kicked our butt so we pulled out all the stops first time around on this one
Another great recovery!
They got some kind of recovery challenge out in Utah I am sure he could teach those people some stuff
Although I’m sure we could

Steel lasts much longer
Rope is easier to handle
We change ours about 3X a year

One hell of a lot of pull. That hook up on the ford chassis is tough.

Excellent job👍👏
So awesome how you did that so well with one vehicle and proper gear

Absolutely amazing !

Good work ! Why not pull the truck backwarts out of the mudhole, that is the way it came in ? Would that not be easier ?
Mud hole yes
Quick sand hole no it dosnt matter
With all the snatch blocks how many thousands of pounds of pull do you think that was?
Never seen your tools before. Thanks
Thanks, l learned a lot.
Truck is easly fixable dash did not go under water short is because there was components under water. Just needs a experienced tech working on it.
But it’s still totaled. Wouldn’t be the hardest job but it would not be quick & that “experienced tech” by all rights should cost more. Not worth it when there’s literally a million f-150s out there that don’t have those problems
