- Rushing with our Miller Industries, Century 1150R rotator towing & recovery unit to assist a customer who had a driver that ran off the road, nearly hit a utility pole, did hit two cars, and stopped just short of hitting a house. Nobody was injured, thank Heaven. Also, using a new "TOOL" from my toolbox, a 1-1/2" X 30" Yankum Rope. Let's put it to the test...Tator VS Stuck Semi... Thanks for watching and God bless. www.paypal.me/RotatorRon

I love the guy who owns this sand company. I recall a while back one of his trucks went off the roadway loaded, and he was insistent after you got him back on the road that he continue to deliver his load before getting the truck fixed.
Now he's out here taking care of this one. Its easy to see why you say you'll show up anywhere anytime to help him out!
Ron i watched this video this morning there was nothing wrong with it. You Tube get a grip. Ron prat is one of the most respectful people on You Tube.
When you said you had to go turn around all I could think of was that old country song, "Give Me 40 Acres..."
Watched this video this morning, 12-10-23, happy to see not much property damage. Enjoy your channel !!!
The whole conversation between the 2 trucks made me laugh. Glad he made it out with just a little help. Love your channel. Educational and very interesting. Much love from the Netherlands.
Mark seems like such a nice guy, and every time we see him on the channel hes handling a disaster like a pro. If I could be so bold as to suggest maybe doing a sit down video with him sometime talking about safety and the challenges of running a fleet?
A UA-camr "Matt's Off Road Recovery" uses those Yankem Ropes almost exclusively to yank stuck 4x4s out of the desert/sand dunes of southern Utah. Seems to work well.
My buddy has the 74k and the one above it. He's yanked out fully loaded semis before with his 3/4 ton truck and one with his 1/2 ton truck. Had to give a couple good yanks on it
I was looking to see if any one mentioned him he uses them in every video pretty much
I wonder that the cars dont break with this heavy yanking...
Yeah I mentioned Matt and Yankum yesterday when he 1st put the video up. And a couple of mentioned Ron and his big Tater on the job Matt did where the Gray XJ got swallowed by the sinkhole!! LOL ✌🐢
@@knuffelbaer1971 The "yank" is applied relatively slowly as the energy of weight x motion of the pulling vehicle is applied to the stretching rope which applies it to the towed vehicle spread out over a longer time. Like the difference between an explosion and a burn- same energy but different speed.
I like the fact that the most important thing to him, is 'no injuries!!!'. Thx Ron
As soon as I saw that Yankum I thought "Matt's Off Road Recovery" too. In fact, I came to this channel through his lol
thats how i found this channel by watching Matt's Off Road Recovery I love both channels
He needs it yellow and blue. Just like matt has his yellow one 😂😂
exactly, thought of him too.
Seen em on Welker Farms videos. Yankum is sure hitting YT hard for advertising.
Same here I thought of MORR's
I'm ex-British Army, we had kinetic tow ropes for the Chieftain tanks back in the late 70's, they worked great for pulling out an 80 ton tank that was up to it's bellyplate in mud! Back the recovery tank up as close as possible, hitch up two recovery lines, then take off at full throttle! Popped out like a cork out of a champagne bottle! That was the problem though, the towing vehicle had to get out of the way fast!!
The way they work is that the towing vehicle applies energy to the rope, and the faster it moves, the more energy it applies. That energy is then transferred to the towed end of the rope and can equal almost double the original input energy due to the rope being stretched up to 30% and snapping back!
shhhh, don't tell too much truth and facts ;)
Dave B, would love to see one of those in action!😯
the triple honk when reversing is such a good idea that more truckers should do, it's been proven that people hear so many beepers and other things during any given day that they just don't notice things like back-up beepers and such.
So I have recently came across Ron’s videos and find them awesome to watch. A very impressive family towing/recovery business. What I really appreciate is their safety culture, which is always on full display in all they do! Great job!
One thing that is nice about Ron is that he believes in safety first.
You are right Ron everyone's got their own opinion so they don't need to harassed you for your son's hat he is who he is though it is pretty sad that you have to put little information out like that so you don't get harassed this world is getting so ridiculous once again run thanks a lot for your good work God bless you all amen
I applaud you for the way you treat everyone, especially your employees...
Good job Mr. Ron. Glad to hear nobody got hurt. There is a guy out in Hurricane, Utah, Matt’s off road recovery, (that’s his you tube channel’s name), that uses the Yankum ropes for his recovery. From my understanding, he loves them. Good job as always and thank you for your videos, love them.
Nice to see Ethan! Looks like your Yankum will pay for itself in no time. Cap? What cap? All I see is a father and son checking out the new stuff. God Bless you!
That’s what America is about anyways the freedom to express one’s opinion and everything else. To many people today wanna bring politics into every situation anyways and that’s why the country is in the situation it’s in today. LETS ALL GET ALONG with each other. Good videos as always Ron
Thank you Ron, not only for doing what you do, but for sharing with us.
Sorry, another "Matt's Off Road Recovery" plug....but you two guys have very similar attributes. Both run successful small businesses in your areas, employ some decent people, and treat people with respect and good will. You are both hard working and will not quit until the job is done. Thank you very much for putting together these videos of your work. Well done.
Ron Pratt and Matt's off-road recovery. My two favorite recovery channels.
Mr. Pratt. I'm not sure if you read the stuff that people write to you on this website. But I very much appreciate the work that you and your crew does. Your like the police and fire departments. Your on call 24/7 365 days a year. My hat goes off to you and your crew.
Ron, you are a credit to the human race. You show your philosophy of life in the way you conduct yourself. I don't practice your religion, but I defend YOUR right to do so. And, the same for your son to have his opinion whether or not I agree with it. God bless you.
Glad to see everyone recommending Matt’s off-road recovery. My 2 favorite recovery channels
Nice to see Ethan coming out of his shell a little. Actually heard him talking a bit. Great video as always Mr. Pratt. Thanks for all the work you put into these for our enjoyment.
Too bad that they didn’t listen to you at the beginning! They could have avoided more damage to the property. It didn’t take you long to easy him out! You are the man, Ron!
I had something similar back in the early 80s. Used it in my car to help pull someone out of a snow drift. Worked great - no jerking. Wasn’t terribly pleased with the hooks that were part of it, they warped pretty quickly. It lasted 20+ years, well worth the money!
Ron ya gotta admit as you did, was quick and simple. I’ve watched a lot of videos of recoveries using a Yankum. Several farm videos with major 4 wheel drive tractors buried to drive shaft and belly of tractor. Hook another one to it with the 2” and pull it out. Light and easy to handle. Thanks for video. Enjoyed
Yankum rope... Sounds like someone might've been watching some of Matt's Off Road Recovery :D
Wow it's awesome to see someone that dims their lights at night. I know it's a huge topic of debate but as someone that drives a lot it's much appreciated.
these new LED's everywhere are blinding.
night road construction crews seem to be in a competition to see who can cause a sunburn at 1 mile away first.
I've seen those Yankum ropes being used for offroad recovery, first time I saw one of the big boys. Having done a few recoveries with a chain-and-jerk, those things look a lot less abusive on everyone involved...
Ron, good to see the video back up. I really hope the driver was not seriously injured.
Just wanted to say that I liked your comment re: Ethan's hat, because I cringed when I first saw it.... Not because of the name on it or the party that it represents, but because of the comments that I can only imagine would be coming your (and more unfortunately your son's) way. I'm not a huge fan of Trump, and I'm an atheist, but the first day that I watched one of your videos, I loved how you were unapologetic about your own faith, but also entirely understanding and equally welcoming of those with different beliefs.
Show up when called or needed, execute the mission in the best, smartest, most effective, and--most importantly--safest way possible, regardless of any characteristic that another may or may not have.... If your approach to your business and your family and life in general isn't the epitome of the American way, then I don't know what is, Ron!
Your comment means a great deal to me and I appreciate it more than you know. I get a lot of haters on here and the hat certainly has brought more to the table. It is what it is. I am not a judgmental person, at least I don't think I am. I respect all and know that I do not hold the only opinions about politics, religion and such. When I begin to doubt things, comments such as yours bring me a bit of hope that not all get offended and not all judge. Again thank you and I wish you well.
Your very courteous expression of your faith and the “family friendly” narrating of what you do is the main reason I subscribed. I’m a tanker yanker with no desire to be a wrecker operator (way too old and way to lazy 😊), but I find it an interesting part of trucking.
Glad to see another tow operator recognize the beauty of Yankum ropes! You must have been watching Matt's Offroad Recovery (which UA-cam suggested to me once I started watching your channel). Both of you are the best in the business. Very cool to see a heavy duty application for kinetic energy ropes.
Great job Mr Ron. Always great thing when nobody is hurt. Trucks and cars can be replaced. Just glad you didn't have to get around the power lines. You feeling better?
This was an awesome video and I am sending prayers and well wishes to the driver
A yankum rope!? Have you been watching Matt's Off Road Recovery?
It sure Yanks um right out
So we got a call today...
Video worth the wait Ron. God bless you and yours. Don't change a thing.👍🙏🇺🇸
Ron, have a look at Matt's Offroad Recovery channel if you want to see some good examples of using the yankum ropes. He is a big fan of them and they work very well for him.
He got my former truck off a mountain top cliff, but not with yankum ropes, brains, know how, and team work mostly. Something I've you use all the time. Matt has learned just how much yankum he needs to use. Not use what application you will have but you video all your recovers I'm sure.
@@dmcpeck that was your gold GMC ?? That had to have been a scary ride 😳
Matt's offroad vids are pretty impressive. One bit of information Matt offered was to not let the rope get caught under a tire.. abrasion weakens the yankum rope .
Matt is a dealer and is sponsored.
Just found his channel myself. He gets in some crazy situations. Those ropes are nice too. Kinda wish I had one but I'd probably use it once every 3 years.
Ron you know exactly what to do Bud that went easier than I thought. Be safe and hopefully everyone moves over when they see you working alongside the road a guy wasn't so lucky a couple weeks ago over by Decatur, Illinois I move over for everyone.
It is so satisfying to watch you float gears in that truck. I am just learning to float in an 1980s spud truck but am still new to it. A.K.A. I do a lot of grinding. 😂 Thanks for another great video.
My 9 year old special needs son Logan loves watching your videos. It's the only thing he will watch. He is nonverbal and when ever you complete lifting a truck he claps and gets so excited!! We love you here in GA
Ron, you are an incredible tow truck operator.
I enjoy watching you
As for Yankum, I am slowly building up the Yankum supplies for my pickup truck and my wife's Pickup truck
For what we help with where we are (we are not professionals) this method is a bigger option for us.
Thank you Ron
So what happened that the truck ended up where it was? Glad no one was seriously injured and hope the driver heals from whatever injury he sustained. Great job Ron, as always.
Glad you were able to reupload this...that rope did a great job...looked real smooth. Glad no one was hurt badly, will be praying for him and of course for you and your family and crew. God Bless Ron
Ever since you got the Q siren you’ve never have done code 3 response videos anymore
:( if you could, could you bring some of those videos back? :) please and thank you sir! Stay safe out there!
I love the the code 3 videos.
as a fireman and a tow truck driver on the side, I whole heartedly agree. I need that Q!! I saw that in the one video and was giggling like a 2 year old child WISHING I could put that on my tow truck.
If I had to guess I think the reason you don't see many code 3's is because usually that's when people are hurt and they need help fast. Ron never posts videos where there are major injuries or fatalities. So it's a good thing we haven't seen many code 3's lately but I do wish we could hear the Q siren too.
Most likely not his decision. Every agency has their own rules or boundaries, sometimes they don't want to have something uploaded or a customer might not want it uploaded.
He can only run code when dispatched by LEO/Emergency response. If he does run code and there was a fatality as a result of the incident we will never see any part of that video.
Thank god no one was hurt
Check out Matt's off road recovery and see what he does with the Yankum Ropes
Ron there's a UA-cam channel called Matt's off road recovery he uses those his videos should give you a idea on how useful they may be
I watch Matt all the time. He's from my home state
Just got into his channel. So good. Seems like such a brute force method after watching Ron, but it works in their situations.
Was just about to give the same reply.
I watch him to
Hope the driver will be ok, job was not to bad it seems, he got the truck out quickly enough with just some light pulling, great work as always.
YANKUM is a KERS system, Kinetic Energy Recovery System, originally developed for the military. It is very good at putting energy into the item you want recovered. The only downside for the sort of work Ron does is that his recoveries are all about control, and when you put that amount of energy in sometimes the item 'yanked' just goes where it wants. Definitely has its uses, but probably less for Ron than for Matt.
Least everyone is ok. Also listening to the tator and Ron grabbing gears is music to my ears nice video Ron
Ron you are so good and I love to hear you truckers talking to each others saying to stop or go or back up thanks for sharing this video I love them you’re great
I love the way your " roo " has pride of place on the dash.
Man you couldn’t slice a piece of cheese thinner than the way he missed those anchor wires for that pole. Well done driver and hats off to you Ron and The Midwest team!!!
Yep, I thought that too. In Ron's videos, some of the driving (by others, not Midwest) has been pretty sketchy. This guy did a tidy job and was smart enough to take Ron's help at the right point.👍
WOO HOO it's back.
That mess reminded me of a place I used to work.Cars were allowed to park near a rail spur until around 4PM but had to move after that.Well,of course there were scofflaws that did not obey.So one day the railroad was delivering some large parts by flat car,several flat cars broke loose came crashing into a bunch of automobiles that had not been moved.About three autos had to be towed out.Had no parking problems there for about 6-7 months after that.
The car owners learned an expensive lesson as too why you should obey parking signs. Way more expensive than a ticket
Missouri State Highway Patrol has said Most of the Traffic Accidents are “Driver Inattentiveness”.
It's so amazing to see you're footage and work skills, better than a show on recovery in BC in Canada! Hi from Québec!
Interesting to see another way (other than Mat's Off Road Recovery!) of using one of those ropes. Another useful tool for you, Ron!
This is the video that UA-cam flags for blood gore or violence I watched it three times now and I don't know what the hell UA-cam is talking about Ron keep doing what you doing I love your videos
I think them new yankum ropes are gonna make your business alot quicker and more professional. I'd love to see one on a rollback recovery. Quick and easy.
The Yankum ropes are most useful when your tow vehicle is smaller or on sand or ice. They use the momentum of the tow vehicle to get transferred to the stuck vehicle, often in excess of what the tow vehicle's power or traction could produce. With your Rotator and other large tow trucks it might not be useful, but in smaller tow units it could be a good tool to have!
Good and quick. I was surprised to see David. He's so respectful and well mannered. Just like he said to Ron, you had no way of knowing. He wasn't upset for making an unnecessary trip. What happened to the sirens for running code?
Lovely job Ron I am so pleased that it wasn't much worse which it could have been and I hope the driver recovers quickly . That yankum rope seemed to help immensely spped up the process , I wonder wether it wouldn't be an idea to have a short piece of chain to put around axles as I don't know wether the d ring will put a strain on the end shackled around the axle. God bless and safe roads
Ron thank you for Northeast Missouri. Blessed to be able to watch something like this rather than TV with my disability. God bless
Ron tell your son I like the hat I have one just like it.may God bless you your work and your family.
Thanks for the video! I hope you enjoy your weekend!
Dang Ron, I know the road is blocked but it's not worth a heart attack! Slow down a little!
Ron's just trying to get out of everyone's way so that the road can be reopened and traffic can get back to normal. Unnecessary, but shows how much he thinks of the bigger picture and is considerate towards others.
I was waiting for this video when I seen the post that you couldn’t release it
Chase Allen you *saw
John Gaughan he saw what?
@@jgpix1 correcting English and grammar on UA-cam comments. That is having too much free time. Me, I took the evening off to be lazy.
@@jgpix1 This isn't the grammar channel.
Ron, I discovered your video's through a search of UA-cam. I really like your safety practices. I also appreciate the sequence of steps you go through on every job. At this point I look at crash and recovery sites differently. The new Yankum Ropes in this video will be a great value to you and others. I also liked the motorcycle slider. Blessings to you and family my friend. Be safe.
Another great video from the most wholesome youtuber
Ron, I love your videos. I hope you, your family, your parents and your crew are all healthy and doing well. God Bless you all. My live to all. Stay well.
I have seen the Yankum ropes demonstrated on Matt's Off Road.Recovery, he tows in the desert, pulling people out of sand dunes, the rope tranfers kinetic energy, I think that how they work, I am sold, going to get a couple of these ropes for our towing needs. The ropes have different weight classifications.
Finally it’s no longer a private video, great recovery, as always. God bless.
I wish we could see more of the response driving, even if you’re not talking to us, for obvious reasons.
Excellent video as always Ron, keep up the good work 👍
When I read that I started thinking... maybe Ron could leave the driving section in, and just put up a text block "Jump to mm:ss to skip the en-route drive" (where mm:ss is the minutes and seconds mark of when he arrives).
Yes the video would be longer, but there are people (like me) in other parts of the country would like to see what MO looks like! When I travel cross country and have the time, I'll take Amtrak rather than an airliner!
Hello Ron, another good video of you doing what you do best, helping citizens in trouble. Well done, thanks for sharing and remember to stay safe 😷.
Ouch, that was a pretty bad one. I hope the driver recovers well soon. And damn, the truck missed that cable on the pole just by a few inches! Just good that the trailer was not loaded with something or this recovery whould have been a LOT more complicated than it already was.
Hopefully the driver only suffered minor injuries and will make a full recovery another great video Ron god bless you and your family
Excellent video, as always! It was well worth the wait. I was a little concerned about the picture quality, but I figured that it was due to the glare of the sun, especially when you arrived on scene and it cleared up. Great candidate to test its worth. The Yankum rope made for a quick recovery. Stay safe out there, brother!
love watching u work very professional and kind to fellow workers
Once again, great video Ron. Every time I hear “Yankum rope” I can’t help but think about Casey Ledell lol
Good evening sir! Great work as always!! ❤
Good Bles all truckers and drivers and police and fire Dep. i like the nice Century 1150R rotator towing & recovery unit. take care of you all in USA. best regards from SWEDEN
Good to see it re-uploaded ❤️
Great job Ron. Nice smooth pull with the big rope. Yankum ropes are awesome. If you wanna see some real time use, Matt at Winder Towing uses the 3/4 ropes (if I remember correctly) with his jeep (The Yellow Banana) all the time on his UA-cam channel "Matt's Off Road Recovery". I love watching his videos all the time too.
Ron glad the video was approved
I remember the yankum rope from the "dragging a deere" video! with your 337 pete rollback anchored to the tree that you uploaded last month... very useful addition to the toolkit. So glad it didnt get any worse than it was. My thoughts are with the driver. Hope he recovers soon. Many thanks for the upload Ron. Stay safe out there.
Wow- am I ever wore out from Ron doing all that running.
Another great job Prayers for the driver God bless
You've been watching Matt's Offroad Recovery channel :)
He could lower the tire pressure to 6 lb so he can have better traction just like the yellow banana
Another great video Ron…! Thank you for sharing your work your life with us… Sorry to hear the driver had some health issues where he had an accident. Thankful nobody was hurt and he made it to the hospital. We wish him well… Nice addition to the end of the video explaining a little bit more about the New Yankum Ropes you purchased. They look really strong and did the job on
this video. Nice touch in the shop added to your videos too btw. It gives us a little more insight about the job and about the tools of the trade in this industry. Nice to see Dave and Your Son in there too… Good guys you have there and great team all the way around…! We appreciate all you do...!
It's awesome he got stopped before hitting the house.
I saw nothing wrong with this video. UA-cam you need to watch these videos from Ron Pratt. You will never ever see anything inappropriate in his videos. Great job as always Ron. God Bless.
Glad the video is back!!!! So I can watch it again Thank you Ron...
Great to watch as always Ron. First class. Scott City and Cape are lucky to have such a top professional as Midwest Truck
Have a good day everyone! 👍🏻
Remember too vote. Great video!
Good day too you to
Aw man, you got it dirty😄😄. I know that a lot of the popular farming channels have used yankum ropes with great success. Great video!
Love your channel Ron your so professional and calm with must be an honour to work for you. God bless stay safe
Yankum Ropes are good stuff man, I have seen a lot of recovery videos getting various vehicles "yanked" out of tough spots, mainly stuff buried in sandy environments. That shock absorbing feature is a real help!
