    Seeing the other side of Papa Dar doing what he does when he ain;t stealing comfort on the soft seat in Paul's shop is always a moment not to be missed. The fact that the community around that area is so tight knit, makes wanting to move there more inticing. As you said in the vid, everybody knows everybody, and everyone helps when needed is so rare these days..Full respect to all who assisted in the recovery, and thanks to all for capturing a story to be told for years to come.

    Hi Ben I live in the uk and I was a wrecker and recovery driver and I watch alot of UA-cam videos and this is the most epic recovery I've ever seen, thank you for getting everyone together in the making of this it is some of the best footage I've watched in a very long time, as for Papa Dar he's alway's there to give a big helping hand to everyone Heck Yeah, was the truck driver frightened about gaters or snake in the pond?? but this was fantastic to watch and you made me laugh and if i get to the USA I'll be looking for somewhere to stay thank to everyone in the making of this video thank's Ben.

    But the truck and trailer was in a pond . The water was deep enough to cover higher than the tires and trailer frame . You watch the video , when it's pulled out of the water the trailer tires are sliding not rotating . PaPa Dar says in the video , they hooked an air tank to the trailer's glad hand to release the trailer brakes . But they couldn't do anything about the truck's brakes because it wouldn't run .
