I can't believe SHE SURVIVED this...

The Gambler 500 was in town this weekend, and as always, it led to some interesting calls! This @Jeep Cherokee got a little too close to the soft edge of the road and ended up going off the side. It rolled 3 times before stopping when it hit a tree, and amazingly the driver walked away with only a couple of scrapes and bruises. So we took the @ford 4x4 wrecker up and got creative with some rigging on the steep ground to get it pulled back onto the road, and then towed down the mountain to the gas station

[@user-wh5qy3ou4t]

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]

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!

[@user-wh5qy3ou4t]

@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

[@CaseyLaDelle]

@@user-wh5qy3ou4t 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.

There are many things off camera you don't see and that many tow truck and recovery operators have to put up with. I salute Casey with his patience and behavior. I would have just gotten in my truck and drove away.

It's his channel and it's up to him what is shown. If you have a problem make your own videos and stop being a keyboard warrior. Cassy does all this for free and doesn't deserve yours or anyone's negativity.

[@CaseyLaDelle]

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.

[@richardthomas1743]

Just like that slime coated waterfall one slip and Gravity will do a number on you , Once I found a dead deer at the bottom of a waterfall that slipped . a single track logging road is the same thing , aa friendly pow wow should have worked but people lost the ability to back up , my process is right arm back of the seat . left hand palm steering , turn sideways a little, crane the neck and no mirrors needed (car drivers usually don't practice backing up) That clowns ego and arrogance got him ...

[@calholli]

The "complicated" part is doing what is safe. It's not always obvious where the danger may pop up, and you're always thinking ahead, trying to anticipate those dangers that are unknown. Otherwise it's pretty simple, hitch on and pull it up. But the devil is in all the little details. Like him hitching onto that top tree-- it may not have even been necessary, but you don't want to find out that you needed it, after you rolled your own rig down the hill. Anticipating every step is the real hard part... It's the same way for me when building a house. When I read the blueprints and need to order all the lumber, etc.. I have to build the entire house in my head several times to know what is coming and know what I need to have there on site, and hopefully not miss anything that is going to stop us from working. Anticipation can be exhausting-- because I guarantee you that he played out this job many times in his head, thinking of every little detail and what would work best-- What is the least risky-- what is the fastest-- what is the least complicated and what tools he needs to bring with him on each climb, etc. and there is always compromises you can make, like taking a little more risk to get something done twice as fast, etc. People don't' see all that "thinking" that is going on, but it takes a lot of energy when you're problem solving and can be draining, because you're constantly calculating probabilities and making consequential decisions on the fly. So that can make you think twice about things and double check, and recheck again, etc. That's why it's such a relief when the job is done, because you can turn all that off and put all that responsibility behind you now.... until the next one.

He collects more trash on these runs than most people, piling it high on his car and he sends it hard. He goes on daily walks with his elderly dog and cleans up the parks and trails where he lives. DAILY. There are multiple people who saw this interaction and all of them agree it was NOT John who started off being rude, he only replied in kind. Props to Casey for rescuing our friends vehicle, but it's no excuse to be a jerk.

[@georgevindo]

@@icek9a Still no excuse to ignore a perfectly reasonable request by a recovery specialist who knows exactly what he's doing. He may be a good guy for what he does but to refuse to be reasonable in a tricky situation doesn't speak well of him.

[@speedfreak8200]

@georgevindo yep, he ignored what Casey told him, wait at the intersection, not room for 2 vehicles. Why didn't he back down the road instead of trying to park on the road?

[@jeffclark2725]

@@speedfreak8200 Some people just leave you wondering ? Casey is bigger with the wrecker, anda narrow dirt road, no common sense

[@judydelaet1471]

holy moly that was a crazy and hard recovery! Great job Casey and David! You are amazing! I hope you got some well deserved rest after that one, wow!

[@jamesbigham9036]

Casey this video is why I say you are the best at what you do. Thinking outside of the box was the only way to do this recovery safely. I don't think most people would have even considered doing the recovery. I have never seen you aggravated normally you are calm, cool and collected. I don't blame you for leaving them stuck I would have to he didn't listen to what you said them had an attitude

[@markfleming9073]

Working on those inclines would be enough for me never thought something so steep would let anything stop even with the trees

[@CaseyLaDelle]

That was one of the few spots on that road with enough trees to stop a vehicle. If she had gone off anywhere else on that road this could have had a very different outcome

[@lifeisawesomeeveryday9734]

Wow that was a rough one Casey, well done

[@hoophil]

Great job Casey! Good to see you again David, great camera work and helping Casey out with that tough rescue. You guys work great together!

[@sdstube8061]

Feeling exhausted myself just looking at you guys. Well done

[@williamlloyd3769]

Impressive recovery! Must of been exhausting. Take care of yourself.

[@richardtaylor6604]

Great recovery and camera work! Some people just don't listen and don't realize the danger they put themselves and others into.

[@anthonysilva1473]

that gambler is making a great impression for his organization.

[@nexviper]

The camera might not have shown the slope accurately but things like yous sliding about and the bend on those trees for them to grow straight was more than enough to get the message across. Great job both of you managing to make things look relatively simple despite the terrain.

[@lawrencekedgettjr2364]

I think this was thee most hardest recovery job I have seen yet ,,,, grate job Casey ,,,,,

[@rickydonahue1586]

I know it was a hard one but it was an awesome recovery to watch. Great job gentlemen!!!👍👍

[@alanmumford8806]

Thanks to another commenter for summarizing my thoughts so precisely: "I'm glad he got stuck, and I'm glad you left him there.".

[@Kamikaze3557]

Yes, I LoVe you standing your ground , and giving an attitude back, to many wimps out here on KZbin world kissing hass, not you and never do brother.

[@bobbendt1698]

Right on Casey. I am glad you put your stuff away and let him figure out how to get back on his way. Sad but I have seen people with an attitude meeting them on a narrow road like that even though those going up have typically the right of way. Sometimes common sense should prevail. Glad you just went on by.

[@michelparent8392]

Hmmmm. I didn't know you could professionally and near politely tell someone to F@#$ OFF using those exact words, but you did. I wouldn't have been able to just leave it at that. A severe tongue lashing would have followed. Great job on handling the moronic situation as well as the great difficult and safe recovery. Cheers.

[@CaseyLaDelle]

More was said, but it was edited out so the video doesn’t get demonetized

[@robwiljas]

@@CaseyLaDelle Oh come on Casey don't leave us hanging like that. Maybe a nice little youtube short? 😁

[@B4UClose]

@@CaseyLaDelle Perhaps that section uploaded as an unlisted video and share the link. I'd love to see the well deserved tongue lashing interaction.

[@frednestler8999]

What an epic rescue! You are a master professional Casey. Fantastic how you take your time and fully analyze the current situation. Completely understand your frustration at the end of the video with that “gentleman”. As you stated, I’m sure you asked him to get out of the way gently and he didn’t want to play nicely…. A+ Recovery. Love your videos👍🏾

[@Lloyd973]

Very nice job backing the Jeep onto the trailer.

[@gregott2011]

Great job Casey and David. The guy in the car might learn not to refuse a drink and tow when he's stuck in the 'desert' next time. That's if he gets a second chance. You tried to help him and that once more shows you really care. Be careful of getting too hot and stay safe.

[@MrJordanwain]

I love seeing these technical winching jobs. Years of knowledge there!

[@forwimp]

A shame that one guy has to be a total jerk in a situation like that. Glad you put him in his place. This was an amazing recovery and I'm amazed that just 2 of you and one truck could do this... and catch it on an amazing video. Thanks for sharing.

[@JThelen1031]

I'm convinced that people who can't see the slope on hills like this on camera are terrible at using reference objects. When you see David take a step and a half down the slope and his waist is level with the base of the tree he's leaning on, that is a crazy steep hill. Anyway, fantastic work as usual.

[@ThatoneY62]

Amazing job!!!!!!!!!! And camera work! That shot from showing you holding the camera and grabbing your water bottle, and immediately slapping the cam on your chest and going was incredible!! Love it! It so raw and real, it helps us be there with you!

[@giaginette1]

Seriously, good for you Casey. Glad you left that guy there. Maybe from now on that guy will have a better attitude towards others who try to help.

[@icek9a]

That guy didn't need help, he was simply trying to make room for the tow truck. That he was greeted with the I told you so attitude is why he responded in kind. You get out of interactions what you put in.

[@marcfox622]

That was a tough recovery and what made it worse for you was that hot weather. I'm not a fan of hot weather either so I felt your pain. Glad you left that idiot on the side of the road, it was much deserved.

[@justanothergunowner3772]

The fact that that camera actually makes it look steep, just shows how steep it must have actually been. Amazing job Casey and great video, loved the little side trip! Hopefully that fool of a man didn't ruin the rest of your day.

[@beaverc2884]

Casey big thanks to you for the way you deal with sponsorship. 😊

[@jimaelick8701]

Glad you didn’t have to Sirch to Rescue.

[@ecjb1969]

The angle that the trees make with the ground shows that it’s a steep incline. WOW - it’s so steep that trees are coming out of the ground at an angle and then going up.

[@myyardsaleitems]

WOW Casey…one of the most intense and difficult recoveries…I’m always impressed with your knowledge and abilities as well as your thoughtful and caring nature…may God Bless you in ALL your endeavors.

[@squiggyg.8415]

Thanks to your previous videos and now this one I just ordered a divider for my van😎

[@janssillypetvideos1224]

Fascinating, dangerous, and you are one smart man. I've been watching most of your videos and in my book you always find a solution. Too bad for that smart ass at the road. You were willing to help. That's life. Take care. Jan

[@mortcs]

Woo that looked like a exhausting recovery. I think your cameras did a great job of emphasizing the slope. Especially when your camera man was obviously having troubles keeping you in frame while climbing above the road.

[@scottnumrich9024]

THAT WAS AN INCREDIBLE RECOVERY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@carlinglin7289]

That was amazing. I figured that Jeep was going to become part of the landscape down a slope like that.

That was a very challenging recovery , thanks so much for taking us along .

[@budgetfishing8638]

I loved everything about this video... Thanks casey and that was all handled exactly the way you did. Awsome job

[@bobgrier3103]

Epic! One of your best. Thanks for taking us along.

[@duanebuck193]

Casey, you kept your cool far better than I would have in that situation with the idiot going off the road. I've been on some sketchy roads and ran into a rig being rescued, and there was never any doubt in my mind that I was the one that needed to get myself and my rig out of the way because the other rig already had enough to deal with. If he wasn't smart enough or good enough to be able to back his rig to a point of safety, then HE was the one that needed a smaller rig, not you.

[@LynxSnowCat]

HE has probably heard it often enough that was the first thing he thought to say.

[@miked19831988]

I think I may have been inclined to push that fuckers car over the edge!!

[@Chilly383]

That’s wild People want to have an attitude even when offering help.

[@kathyl5610]

Another scary and wonderful recovery! Casey, you are good at what you do. I would imagine that a lot of tow truck drivers would never even consider trying to get that car recovered. The video work was wonderful and yes, I could see how steep it was, and I’m sure it was twice as steep or maybe 10 times as steep as what the video showed, David did a great job for you. And that old dude at the end, he is right where he should be, all alone, and stuck in trouble. Take care Casey and stay safe.

[@goodkarmechanic]

Wow, that was some seriously steep terrain. I hope the Jeep owner was grateful for your help. It's also a miracle they escaped serious injury and the wreck didn't start a forest fire. The terrain was unforgiving of any mistakes and it's obvious from watching the heat took a lot out of you. Well done! It's a shame that bad apple ruined your feel-good moment after helping someone out of a very bad situation because of their own bad attitude, ignorance and selfishness. Rest well, you have certainly earned it!

[@alanstallones8624]

Yeah, there’s no way the camera shows how steep that really is!

[@sagebrushbob2321]

It's a good thing they were in the Cascades when that happened. If they had been that same distance east of Bend there would have been nothing but sagebrush to stop them from going to the bottom of the canyon.

[@postulatingspin4470]

Definitely the most difficult recovery I have seen. It is remarkable how you utilized the limited resources available to marshal up that much pulling force given the rig you had.

[@miked19831988]

man the things you do for us viewers...thank you
