I just want to say thank you, I only watched the last video about 4 weeks ago, just before I went on a road trip. About a week ago in cape range national park I got severely stuck on the beach, it then occurred to me that I had no recovery gear and the tide was rising fast. Remembered back to this video and it definitely saved my arse and my car, I am definitely ordering a big windscreen sticker to show my appreciation. You are an absolute legend. P.S I absolutely love your videos and have got my brother interested in them too.

Seek Adventure Yes the shovel is the answer. Like George Hill towing USA. In his videos he nearly always digs around the wheels of the bogged beach vehicles. It should be obvious but hardly anyone mentions it but when bogged the wheels dig themselves in = the vehicle is lower as in closer to the axle centre. Digging around them & making a sand ramp allows the vehicle a good chance of driving out. As you 1st showed the water didn't work as it's never going to climb up the vertical face of the sand. Even a high gutter on a solid surface would test out many vehicles.

@stevecrop62645 жыл бұрын
It can help in hot fluffy sand, but like you found you need heaps of water and it’s time consuming. That sand was already wet and compact underneath. You weren’t moving because it was trying to climb the hill in front of each wheel. Which is why you could drive out after digging. You can’t dig your way out of soft fluffy sand.
@elnakasone5 жыл бұрын
It’s a trick that wildland firefighters use when stuck. Lightens the load and gives the soft dirt or sand a bit more of a solid surface. They would use two thirds of the water in their tank, much more than twelve buckets of water, and a bunch of shoveling!

No need to dig. get your tires turning slowly, and turn your steering wheel lock to lock slowly. It pulls the sand under the tires packing it. You slowly climb right out. There are a few vids on it. It is hard to beleive but it does work great. I saw it first on Matt's Off Road Recovery out of Hurricane Utah. A KZbinr from UAE gave him the heads up.
@andrewsnow73865 жыл бұрын
That's a nice experiment, I had wondered if water would help. But that was 4 1/2 minutes of digging, and YOU can drive right out. All those drivers that use the if-the-care-doesn't-move-give-it-more-gas method would still be stuck.

I’ve had people swear to me that wetting the sand will get you unstuck. I live in the American Southwest so you’d have to carry the water with you which is significantly heavier than the shovel and other recovery gear. Maybe, just maybe it could help with the dirt and sand around here but carrying a couple hundred pound of water is so much more difficult and maybe more costly for the storage.
