    Default How little it takes



    Came across this looking for something else. Take a look and use it for a reminder of just how little it takes to trash your rig.



    And another:



    And yet another. This one showing how dangerous stuff can get on recoveries. Luckily (maybe so, maybe not) no one was in the way to stop the strap:

    http://www.landroverclub.za.org/snatch_straps.htm

    Notice the critical words: "Snatching a vehicle should only be used as a last resort."

    Yeah, no ****, Sherlock. It is about the most dangerous way to retrieve a stuck rig out there and is normally used to break the suction of a stuck vehicle in mud....and that is pretty much it. This state doesn't have enough mud to warrant this kind of extraction unless you are having a very bad day. The stuck rig in this video also didn't need to be snatched....

    It's an easy money bet that they were screwing around on the beach. "Stupid is stupid does, suh."
