That is what I was thinking, so if I had to take a guess I would say maybe 1500.00 I mean consider the state troopers were there not sure exactly how that was treated as a "cop call" or how. If it was the cop call might have been a little cheaper but the rig is totaled either was which is sad. But everyone got out safe and alive and that is what is important when something like this happens. Equipment can be replaced, human and animal life can't.
Recoveries like these usually go much higher than you think . I’m a heavy tow truck driver and I charge $10k for something like this . A lot of time goes into this and bringing in a crane is more money
I would never have guessed that the clip was sped up, I heard you Oregonyites were pretty fast compared to us Idehoers next door! ;) Ya know he went to sleep at the wheel due to your boring speed limit right!!
3:05 Looking good, but this other wrecker needs to be further back with boom up to do what it is now... hmmm... Then pull up to bank.. I'm guessing by my own experience there will be lots more done here. Pretty smooth. Nice finish. The laod was everything in this one. Must've been empty. Thumbs up.
Apparently, "Ace Towing" has no clue what they're doing. In the first part of the video, the cable is coming off the boom at a huge angle & trying to roll the tow truck. Had the boom been facing the back of the van, a couple of huge snatch blocks used and a triple or quadruple line pull been used, that one tow truck would've been more then adequate to get back up to the highway.
Good comment. Not sure I agree on that single truck being able to pull the entire rig up that bank. But, I too was very surprised to see that operator on the down hill side of that tilt. Recipe for disaster.
OK Dude why do they over charge? Look dude, they showed up to a shit head who drove his truck & trailer into the lake. They tried to get it out with what they showed up with. It did not work. Call in the heavy artillery. Anything goes. They were able to retrieve the trailer on this day. Codes to the recovery crew who ever they wore. You know once you showed up at the scene, it was more than bargained for. Charge the company for every penny. I like to fish. If I could not fish in this lake because this driver could not control his truck while passing this lake, O.K. Cut him some slack. But charge the shit out of him.
Actually I'll bet its about 90% salvageable and in decent shape with all things considered.. a water damaged bunk area and the electronics system shot. I've seen them smack trees, boulders, freight scatted all over the road and a total wipeout. I would like to see the freight and if it damaged though.
0:19 This operator is seriously messing up right now... He could roll the wrecker into the lake this away. The Semi is very heavy, what's thinking. lol
Ok so why did they just use two Rotators? Two Century 1075 75 Ton Rotators would have been able to do the job easily two smaller Rotators could have done that job easily.

That was impressive. No damage that I could see. Props to the recovery crew.
What a great team and Great Job! I can only imagine the cost of this tow! WHOA!!

Pretty cool, would have loved to seen the cab be removed as well.
Crazy amounts of weight to be pulling! Amazing how machines work.
I like this kind of video. Another Large Car saved.
That truck might not have started out as a refrigerator truck but it definately was in the end
lol
It was a reefer you can see the unit in the front of the trailer
dam, i wanted to see how they removed the tractor.

How to recover a semi ( TRAILER ONLY) from a frozen lake
lg
these dudes are fast. 4 minute recover time has to be some kind of a record
Your joking of Course. Lol
3:05 Looking good, but this other wrecker needs to be further back with boom up to do what it is now... hmmm... Then pull up to bank.. I'm guessing by my own experience there will be lots more done here. Pretty smooth. Nice finish. The laod was everything in this one. Must've been empty. Thumbs up.
That's team work between Crain tow truck and the people involved..
Where's Ron Pratt when you need him
thank you. big like

Where were the PFD's?? Even more trouble had one or more gone thru the ice.
That’s a whopper! How many lines can you use in Oregon when fishing?
this story actually made it to National News! I saw it on HLN this morning
Was is about the truck adding more pollution to an already polluted lake?
I was there tabling east bound right after it happened, the windows of the cab were at water level. What a mess. Im glad there was no injuries
THAT TOW TRUCK CREW MUST HAVE GOT SOME GOOD STUFF FROM THAT TRUCKER, THEY WERE QUICK ON GETTING THAT TRUCK REMOVED!!!
this should be a red bull commercial or how to stay worm while working in the cold
Now when it is in water isn't it a vessel?
Do you have vid of the cab being extracted?
I would hate to see the towing bill for this
Especially from Ace Towing, they overcharge for everything.
OK Dude why do they over charge? Look dude, they showed up to a shit head who drove his truck & trailer into the lake. They tried to get it out with what they showed up with. It did not work.

i got a better one: try explaining that to your boss how it happened
If I towed that I'd ram it to'em!!!
did anyone call the receiver and tell them that their load is on ice and it going to be late getting there

looks like he decided to practice for ice road truckers.
see what happens when your dispatchers pisses you off
lol
maybe the driver forgot it was bath day
Did he really try and pull out a tractor trailer, weighted down by ice and water, with a single line, medium weight wrecker?
Clearly have no clue. Then get a crane instead of the right tow truck.
Did he dip his headlights
nice video my friend
must have had a load of fish for the lake!
looks brand new haha. its clean
THE SEMI WAS NEVER RECOVERED ONLY THE TRAILER.............MISLEADING TITLE!!!
I would not want to be the guy hooking that truck up BRRRRRRRRRR !
I was half expecting to see Mr. Bill from SNL. Oh Nooooo...
😎😐
Gay movie
Ok so why did they just use two Rotators? Two Century 1075 75 Ton Rotators would have been able to do the job easily two smaller Rotators could have done that job easily.
how much did that recovery cost.. damn
ALOT of $$$$$$$$
Big bucks for that tow, I wonder if it was over $1,000 Dollars?
wow,everbody else sure knows how to do it?
Awesome job
What about the awesome Peterbilt. That was the best part.
I’d never put a semi in a frozen anything 😂😂😂
WHERE'S JAMIE DAVIS AND THE ROTATOR AT LOL
I wonder if that's the Columbia gorge river area I was right Organo been there
probaby a rookie swift driver .thought the cruise control means the same as auto pilot .
C'mon now... Rookie Swift driver says thats what the blow up doll in the back is for...
--- See Water In For Treat
Tim, You mean it's not?
I bet that cost a small fortune to remove from the water. Luckily no one was hurt and its just money.
No barriers .ONLY IN AMERICA
700 bags of rock salt......put the truck in reverse and you're done. Simple ! ! !
I was gonna say, thats a bit much for that wrecker to handle.
when it was stuck maybe a flotation bag under the front to aid lift. just guessing.
1000%?
A better solution is to not drive trucks into frozen lakes.
well that is one way to refrigerate your load
looks like another load for the scrap yard... maybe the trailer can be repaired and put back into use but the truck is headed to scrap.
Not necessarily...
"The cab was later removed from the water." No shit, you think they are going to send all that equipment home and leave the truck in the water?
Took a long time. Should have used a crane to lift the whole thing out, without the tow truck, it was just in the way.
wheres ron pratt when you need him?
There doing this all wrong, they'd been further ahead to drain the lake and just drive the thing out.
Engine would have been full of water and need a complete cleaning
Man ,it's like I can hear your thoughts..I was thinking the same thing. What are those dumbasses doing?
larrynorman1919 - or wait until summer
Well for one thing its Way to small to pull that truck im surprised they sent that wrecker out
Next on "Ice Road Truckers: Global Warming"
take the duck boat and pull lock on king pin, fun.
This wrecker operator has no clue what the hell he is doing lol.
Must've been a refrigerated truck.😱
How in the hell did he do that
The dog was driving
He jumped in the bunk and let the ELD drive.
Call Jamie Davis!
no wounded my package was water logged back then!!!
Never speed the clips up that fast. To me that is the same as fast forward.
I'm sure most of us don't want to sit here and watch a 45 minute + recovery video.
Ice road trucking.
the lack of any safety gear....PFD's, just shows the lack of any professionalism. Yup, lets risk the workers and hope it turns out attitude!
I've heard of a truckwash but this is just ridiculous guys bluebeacon is a simpler faster way lol
Just a tip: Don't put it in a frozen lake in the first place.
Russian way will be better:)
How to pull out car from a frozen lake. Russian style
the russian way.... so simple... got to love it huh:p
Wouldve been easier to drain the lake.
If you know Klamath Lake, that would be the same as flushing the toilet.
I really don't think he can park there!!!
wtf did the driver do, fall aslep behind the wheel? 10 grand+ bill right there
+azim Try 50 grand.
holy shittt
Probably icy, that stretch of Hwy 140 along the lake is famous for it. And/or he was going to fast.
@@Oktow Haha 50 grand nobodys gonna pay 50 grand for that maybe your piece of shit company would try and charge that
I thing that dude is going to in trouble & I would fire the fool
For being stupid, i would have let the truck stay there until spring
Que chulada como trabajan los grulleros. Aqui en mexico lis grulleros. Ya hubieran destasado esa caja. Aqui les vale madre como rescaten un vehiculo lo asen garras cobran mucho por aser sus pendejadas
