    Thanks for the recovery of one of our Gambler family. Too bad you cut out the parts where you were rude to the drivers also. It would only be fair. These guys are rarely dicks. These two have rescued more people, driven more miles, cleaned up for more years than you could possibly know. Everyone has off days, including you. Its a dick move to put tgem on blast. And i dont see the part where you chewed Seths ass either. Another amazing person, doung amazing things with no intent of glory. Way to really stir up shit instead of caring.

    • @CaseyLaDelle
      @CaseyLaDelle  Рік тому +288

      Oh shut up. I was not rude to them before this, but I and absolutely did TELL them to back down to an intersection and that we were NOT going to attempt to pass on that section of the road where they were trying to pull to the side. And I didn’t give them any option about that, because they were not getting any option about that. For everyone’s safety, that’s what we were doing, end of story. If that hurt their sensitive little feeling…. Too. Fucking. Bad.
      But then, this fucking moron that some of you want to worship so much couldn’t even keep his car on the road, tried to get to the side where I told him not to, and drove off the edge putting himself and his passenger in extreme danger for no reason. So yeah, at that point I absolutely am pissed off and am not going to sugar coat anything. But I’m also still going to help him out of the situation he put himself in. That is until he decides to run his mouth on top of it. At that point, fuck that idiot, he can stay there.
      As far as this Seth person you’re talking about, I have no idea who that even is. So no, I didn’t chew his ass.
      I also find it funny that so many of you Gamblers are jumping all over me saying that all these MANY different witnesses saw me being so rude before he backed off the edge. Well guess what…. There were only three people there at that point. The nun, his passenger, and the driver of the car ahead of him. So anyone else who told you they saw any part of the initial interaction is a dirty fucking liar. End of story.
      If you want to think I’m an asshole, hate me, talk shit about me, or anything else, because I was “mean” to someone who’s stupid decisions put himself and his passengers lives at risk…. Good! Have at it! Your opinions mean absolutely nothing to me!

      @CaseyLaDelle I actually thanked you. Then talked about your behavior, not your character. Never talked shit about you, only here, to you. Never even called you names. I get it. Been in situations where I knew I was the one on the side of safety, been the one who felt I had to take control. However it is in extremely poor taste and yes a dick move to put people on blast to get more "atta boys" on your channel. Would you want someone to tailor their story to do that to you? Just putting it out there... no need to justify your attitude or behavior. And if other peoples opinions don't matter then why comment? Why tell your story again? Just food for thought

      @@WendyKelley-n3v here’s where I have a problem with you and all the other morons jumping all over this for me. You are saying that I “tailored the story” or “made it look like”…. And that is straight up bullshit. What happened is what you saw. Don’t like it, too fucking bad. And as far as whether how this nun clown feels about it…. He saw the camera there and still decided to mouth off. If he didn’t want to look like a dumbass on camera, he could have simply kept his mouth shut and let me pull him out, or told me that he didn’t need my help. He CHOSE to mouth off in front of a camera, so no, I don’t care one bit about “making him look like…” anything. I film my work, and this is part of what happened on this job.

    @CaseyLaDelle  Рік тому +938

    And yes, the rules are very simple…. Get an attitude, get f#cked.
    I told them not to even try getting to the edge of the road to pass, and to back down to the intersection where it was safe. And there was absolutely no way I was going to put my 11k pound truck that was towing a 5k pound Jeep on the edge to go around them.
    This clown could not even come close to backing up straight, and had no business being on a road like that with such little driving skills. He then picked WAY too small of a turnout like I told him NOT to do, and back off the edge of a massive drop. They already got an attitude with me when I asked them to back up in the first place, and he decided to get even more of an attitude while I was getting out the gear to pull him back on the road. So to put it simply, f#ck’em. If he’s not that concerned about the situation he’s in, neither am I.

    You handled those people in the car just like I have to people in the past. I passed a car stuck in the sand in the middle of the path to the beach, I offered to pull him back onto solid ground about 10 feet behind his car, he was rude to me so I drove by him. 2 hours later we drove back by him still stuck there and I just waved and continued on. There were only 2 vehicles an that path that day besides the stuck car, myself and the other vehicle that had no recovery gear, it took us about an hour to get to where we saw the towing company heading his way.
    Keep your spirits up and don't let the rude people get you down, keep up the great work.

    Casey,
    Back when I was in high school( k falls, grad 1967) I worked at the ARCO trucks top on n. Hwy 97.
    We had loggers from Eugene hauling around here. They were talking about big log loads.Back then they used 40' trailers fitted with 10' bunks. They would put a 4' tree on each side, and a 10' x 40' log down the center. They said it was enough lumber to build 4, 4- bedroom houses. I imagine they were hauling out of the Willamette forest.
    I have been fortunate to see this kind of load 4 or 5 times while we lived there..

    a bloke on the beach in a brand new shiny Range Rover stuck up to his
    axles in sand with tyres fully inflated. He had his foot flat to the floor and
    was shifting from 1st to reverse and back, throwing sand everywhere.
    A mob of us in old scruffy bangers stopped to help, only to be abused by
    this now redfaced gentleman. We waited around passing unflattering
    comments, when we left we gave him a cheer and wished him a nice
    day.

Nothing special about it, just when you have to scramble up a steep slope you don't carry anything but a coil of maybe 100' of 1/4" rope in a tiny knapsack or a shoulder bag. Get up there hands free and toss an end to your buddy below. Now use it to pull the tree savers, shackles and cable all up to you!

Your cable looked about the same size as ours, and we had to pull a car up a hill, and it blew my mind what that cable would pull.
