You should see me use a excavator. I often pick up shovels and water bottles to hand to the crew. Or put 1 tooth on the bucket inside a 3" PVC pipe to lift it off of the truck and into the trench.

Driver of small rescue excavator was certainly exceptionally skillful, safe & methodical. Whole rescue team deserves credit.

The one running the small excavator was AWSOME, was like that machine was an extension of his arm. Watching that recovery and how they made it look easy was a job well done!!! I used to drive a small winch truck, nothing as big as those trucks, and it is amazing what you can do with them. I'm trying to figure out what that cost for that recovery......great job!! Oh yeah and loved seeing the Chevy in the video also.

[@louie2037]

This brings back "fond memories" of an incident that happened many years ago on my farm. The back 16 acres is a bog that is mostly much; we don't even know how deep it is, but we know that you can take a 12'x1" pipe and simply push it down out of sight. All the while our kids were growing up I worked the farm during the day, and was a Police Officer in the afternoon. Once the kids were old enough to operate some of the "4 wheelers", they were told not to go into the Bog; which of course one of them did. Kids being kids, one of them "knew better" than the rest of us, and got his 4 wheeler stuck. Rather than telling anyone, he walked home, got my old Massey to pull the 4 wheeler out, and sunk it down to the hubs. Then he, his brothers, and my wife took the Massey 8168 out, figuring its size, power, and winch would surely pull everything out...nope. It was at that point that they decided they had to bite the bullet and call Dad. I was on patrol on the opposite end of the County, and had just agreed to work a double until 7:00 the next morning. To say I was not happy is an understatement, but I kept my cool and simply told them, "everything had better be back in the barn, and clean, by the time I get home tomorrow morning," and hung up. Well, I guess it was a long, cold, wet night for the family, but it was mission accomplished. The only thing I EVER said, after looking everything over was, "good job." Damn...that was over ten years ago, and I can still feel myself getting a little ticked just thinking about it. Now, my oldest grandkids are operating the 4 wheeler, and smaller tractor, and I live for the day when THEIR dad gets a phone call...

Some models of old European army vehicles are still used by civilians today because they're great value for money, even if you factor in the fuel consumption.

[@roberharpane3524]

If you've operated heavy equipment long enough, you've probably had the unfortunate circumstance shown in this video. If not, you probably wonder how exactly does someone allow themselves to be swallowed up by the earth on a piece of equipment so massive & powerful. Whereas I'm not an everyday operator, I've run rentals enough to find myself in a similar situation at least once & it's not as hard to get yourself in that kind of "jam" as you think. A trac-hoe by nature is top heavy & if you're clearing timber in boggy terrain, all goes pretty well until you've cleared a wide enough swath of timber to find yourself in the middle of a large clearing with suddenly "no bottom" to it. You feel somewhat invincible in a machine you know can pull itself out of almost any situation you get into but when those tracks start spinning & your machine cants to one side, that's when the fun starts. The more you push, pull or move your boom you find yourself just a little deeper in doo & that high elevation you were enjoying looking out across all that in front of you starts to disappear,, your entire rig is sinking or actually digging it's own grave as you twist & turn in the bottomless pit you created. The water table below you starts to rise & turn any semblance of stable ground below you into more mush & consume you the more you struggle with your rig to find some kind of traction or footing to regain an advantage. Those stump holes you created taking down those trees fill & mix with water & unknowingly, you made a perfect storm below you. The biggest issue is losing your equilibrium, where the actual weight of the machine works against you when you lose that flat plane where once all things were equal. Suddenly, the counterbalance of where any machine of this size draws it's strength from is gone & that misplaced weight acts as a digging mechanism & your tracks try to but can't compensate for all that weight displacement. You go deeper & deeper with each move you make trying to desperately not end up like the operator in this video knowing he's going to have to call in for help with a few folks getting a small chuckle out of his misfortune. Your tracks at a diagonal act as a "cutting mechanism" instead of a flat plane used to maneuver on a flat stable surface. The tilt you're suddenly working from creates a difficult effect swinging your boom to pull or push & you're looking into the sky on one side & hitting the bog beneath you halfway around when attempting to utilize your bucket to pull you out. The solid platform you sit inside of doesn't feel so invincible anymore & it's intent to control all that spinning & pulling power has lost it's purpose. It happens to the best of operators & I was fortunate enough that day to work myself calmly out the mess I'd gotten into with the help of a massive pine close by that gave me just enough leverage to grab ahold to & slooooowly pull myself out little by little. After watching this video, I can think back to how with a few wrong moves, I could have probably buried my machine in that perfect bog that day myself. Believe me, the suction of that muck below you doesn't want to allow your escape, it's slippery & sticky consistency wants to hold you & take you down further if it can. As I said, you feel invincible almost with all that power at your disposal but power is relative to the forces around you & even the most enormous of manmade capacity can be swallowed up like a floating city called an ocean liner in the middle of the seas without a trace of evidence it ever existed if the right (or wrong) circumstances prevail..
