Cat Buncher ROLL!!

The caterpillar buncher rolled over on Friday night! Scotty D wasn’t hurt...that’s a good thing. Nothing was broke and he was back cutting in no time.

[@Krieghandt]

My Great Grandfather, his father, and uncles were wood cutters. But being Mennonites in the late 1800's, early 1900's it was all axe and mules at the time. It's amazing the forestry machines you guys use today.

[@longlowdog]

'just another day in the woods', 'no-one hurt' now that is good interpersonal skills. Plenty of bosses would flip out and make hurtful remarks even though they placed the operative in the position that led to the incident. Top man, you are a star.

[@garymiller1444]

I’ve turned one over my self. The doors are insanely heavy to push up and open when on it’s side. And yes it happens more than people talk about. The machines are crazy tuff. Keep logging my friend.

[@BigRock804]

Hi John: I was proud of the was you handled yourself yesterday. You got a skidded and calmly fix the problem. No shouting or picking on the guy. No wonder your father in law looks out for you. You have learned what to do and take care of problems. I hope the operator was not to sore to work today.

[@jamesmckay9966]

father in law fired john because he didn't fit in.

[@scottgreene6541]

Its a good thing when you can laugh off something that could of been BAD !! she looks to be ok the buncher that is. Keep Rollin John !!

[@billcraddock7166]

Been there, done that once in a Deere 640 ATAB another time in a 721e hydro-ax. Get em back on their feet, let the fluids settle, recheck levels and keep on keeping on. To me each time seemed like it was happening in slow motion. Have a safe and great week in the woods, John and the entire Cooks crew!

[@johns3106]

Man…there aren’t many bosses that would be this quiet, relaxed and understanding. If you spend enough time in the woods, eventually something like this will happen. Take care of it, make sure everybody learns something from it, and get on with the job!

[@vrock265]

Good Boss! Nothing worse than having a boss yell and scream throwing a tantrum. Cant believe how nice and quiet your skidder is. Loud is tiring. When I was a kid the Amish had a skidder with a Detroit diesel. Holy cow you could literally here it a mile away.

[@herbhall3830]

I was going to say what an awesome cool calm and collected that boss is! Everyone has accidents and mishaps and to have an understanding boss is a blessing!

[@johnhaehnel1206]

Been there done that unfortunately. No one was hurt that’s the important thing. Nice recovery video but be careful with the chainsaw action without PPE. Big brother will sometimes go back and look after an accident. It happened to us. Love your videos and like you say keep on rolling. 🇺🇸

[@waynetharp]

Pretty Crazy!!! Glad all is well...Just Keep Rollin'!

[@lewiemcneely9143]

Glad Scotty is o.k. That's the main thing. A rubber tired rig will go before you realise it. I came in a gnats hindmost of turning a haul truck over. Loaded with dirt (stripping) heavy on my side and I was sidling on my side and dumping downhill to the front. BAD combo. It started over and I was thinking 'THIS is how it feels to turn one of these things over'; and hit the bed down as fast as it'd go and that truck never straightened back out till the bed set all the way down. THEN I hunted a flat spot, tilted to the right a little and dumped it. Never again. The Kawasaki would lift 18 tons at a time and was right stable all the way up but I had the rear end dancing with boulders but the bucket was dancing on the ground too. Live and learn and fasten that seatbelt! Prayers, BLESSINGS and hugs from Goomerish younguns!

[@jamesdoney6196]

I run a 545d cat skidder when I seen the cutter man pull out his 5 hour power I laughed relieved that I'm not the only one who runs on them.

[@crashwrench]

Hi, Always A Prefect Time To Change Oil , Clean Out the Cab , Change His Shorts . Glad He Was Not Hurt !!!! SEAT BELTS !!!!!

[@arkansas1336]

Those things happen, glad everyone and all of the equipment was good! ....13

[@ShaneMuddle1]

More like code brown! Had to right our two bunchers a few times, we just scratched its belly, turned it over checked the levels and fired it up and away they went. Oh and a couple of smelly trees for in the cab

[@austindenotter19]

Never ever get a skidder without a winch

[@fei-forestry6169]

Kitty cat needed a belly scratching 😂

[@The_blindpizzaguy1300]

Oh Josh! I’m glad nobody was hurt though. That really could’ve been a lot worse.

[@2fast65]

Glad no one was hurt and the machine is okay if i were in it i think it would have been brown pants day for me.

[@truckdriver7721]

The down side I think someone needs to change his shorts. The up side is no one got hurt. 😊😊😊

[@VideosByAl]

Your saying “ Just Keep Rolling “ , well Scotty is taking that a bit too far. Good thing you gave him a nifty hat to wear.

[@kennymysak2079]

Probably not the first time I bet it won't be the last time cause it could happen to anybody at any given time. Keep up the great videos. At least nobody got hurt but his pride got a little tarnished is all

[@cntslesfabrication]

Kenny Mysak and maybe is draws lol

[@ryanssawmill8224]

I'm impressed with the cat ran perfect after rolled over . Glad the guy is okay

[@swampratt36]

Dam on flat ground too... couldn't have picked a better spot 😉 , clean doo doo ,check oil n runner boys

[@TruckingWithClint]

Awe the kitty cat wanted it's belly rubbed John, that's all, and we all know cats sleep most the day..Lol glad all is well and everyone is I'm

[@cntslesfabrication]

That saw sounds like a 125 dirt cycle running a trail pinned

[@MrThenry1988]

I would have had to turn it over by hand a couple times. Awesome luck.

[@jamessween]

Did he have to go home and change his pants?

[@alanchase8395]

feller wanted a nap

[@iveykennedyyy5250]

Keeper on all fours this time now lol 🤣

[@johnwarren-649]

Never a question of if it's a question of when it's going to happen in that line of work I'd think

[@lewiemcneely9143]

Like wrecking a bike. Not If, it''s WHEN!

[@louisnemick317]

I thank God that you are all right. Scotty.

[@davidmichelinsalomon9136]

The cutter is taking a nap... don’t disturb please

[@georgiadeerhunting8337]

david michelin salomon lol

[@nostalgicfarmer4767]

Lol... miss seeing ya Scott. It's been a little while. Glad you're alright 😁

[@j.b.maxwell8695]

The smoke is normal after a roll over it’s just oil that has got into the intake , it will burn away ok

[@jamesMwebber]

Good ole 372 to the rescue!

[@austinnasset288]

If that's how it goes logging flat ground pecker poles, I can imagine the equipment that guy would destroy on steep ground with big wood.

[@JasonWorksAlot]

Comrade "big ballz" didn't anybody ever teach you rubber side down shiny side up?! HE WHO HAS THE MOST VODKAS WINS.

[@StumpjumperVideosPA]

huh I don't remember running that? but I must have its rutsty side up lol !!!

[@barryhansen6854]

It maybe his first but it won't be his last, everybody safe as you say just keep rolling.

[@scottmoore8080]

Thank goodness he is safe. Good reason to be shaking a bit. Hopefully he was able to analyze what went wrong so it won’t happen again. S

[@Freakingstang]

sounds like a hopped up 372? or 385/390?

[@green-zone36]

You guys have a lot of fun things happen. Give him the rest of the day off. It is Friday.

[@michaelmarkes4818]

glad everybody ok ,,,gives a different perspective how powerful the winch is

[@ThatChipperGuy]

Yep. Thanks for watching

[@nicholousrogers2774]

Regardless of why it rolled I'm glad the operator is ok these things can be alot worse you all be safe

[@MSLLOGGING]

Ewww pucker factor 10,000 glad nobody was hurt and machine wasn't lay in there pal

[@rngn2010]

just glad nobody hurt!!

[@husqman5280]

Good kitty...just wanted it's belly scratched !!

[@green-zone36]

I think you would be a cool guy to work for. Very good attitude when things go bad.

[@dandeforest9439]

had mine up on two wheels a couple times,till i thought to let the trees go.then the machine just kinda stayed there for a second, trying to decide weather to roll or go back down on all four. (i voted for all four)

[@stevebillow395]

Flat ground?

[@scottlundy257]

you made that look easy hope the engine did not get hurt operators can be replaced but the engine repairs can cost $$$ hope its all good

[@jasonwhite4980]

Yeah, better an operator get hurt than an engine...

[@cntslesfabrication]

John did you listen to what you said as you grabbed the logs?????? If not listen to it like 9:30 ish

[@gradermancat9819]

I remember my first beer

[@joshwelner1951]

There is a better way to clean the floor. Glad all is ok 👍👍👍

[@t-tproductions341]

Need to be running that tracked tigercat and throw away them rubber tired cutters

[@ThatChipperGuy]

Wow

[@mikejones5172]

Buy him one!!

[@loggertimbocrawford4586]

That was me a few months a go.my third time in bout 11 years .I hope I'm done doing that.its so not fun,I couldn't get out last time.was stuck in there bout ten minutes. All I could think of was it was gone catch a fire.

[@waltermattson5566]

Did it quit smoking after a little while?

[@mack_titan]

what kind of winch do these bunchers have?

[@mikeevanoski809]

how does it roll over,

[@mattjacobus3005]

Glad he is ok and damage to the machine all is good. The cat wanted her belly rubbed. did you have to put some smelly tress in the cab and air out and clean the seat while he went home to change that must have been a scary ride for sure.

[@matkremzar5474]

easiest way to clean cab!

[@tysonwalsh8193]

Good time to paint the bottom

[@memyselfandifarmer]

not the way to change the oil.

[@ryanbrooks3443]

How did that roll over?

[@green-zone36]

Those things are designed to tip over. Did you tell him that before or just after.

[@iveykennedyyy5250]

Man I never thunk it a kitty wanted a belly scratch

[@googooforyou]

Lol floor is cleaned off

[@steveyoder6437]

Same you, lol!

[@SpongingSteve]

Pucker right up ayut

[@lewiemcneely9143]

Factor 9.959 at least.

[@mikepici5553]

Good he's ok john, how did he flop her

[@nicholousrogers2774]

What caused him to flip it looks fairly level where he is

[@MrThenry1988]

Didn't let go of the tree quick enough. Lol. Happens fast when it goes.

[@audreygreen-hite2075]

I spent a lot of years high lead slack line skidder and cat logging. And everyone including some of the operators allways looked like very muscular pow s all you guys seem to be about 40 lbs overweight. Is that the differance generational or the nature of the work. I am genuinely interested. Luca

[@jessielowery4279]

Lol not a cutter man til you turn over at least once

[@DXT61]

Is driving them things as bumpy as it looks? Seems like it would beat a man to death.

[@chuckwiegand4278]

That happens roll her on her sneakers let fluid settle start her up no ones hurt

[@mchl8]

Had to scratch it belly

[@robertjohnsonmetals3727]

Dang the code red was at fault

[@kevinsmith3315]

Well it's good yall can cut up about it in stead of getting mad looks like a good crew and u need timber pro track machine

[@caterpiller95]

I live in Canada and we only use tracked bunchers and idk how the hell anyoen can flip something on flat ground ? Guessing the trees in the head did it

[@loggertimbocrawford4586]

You can run up on a high stump and other side go in a stump hole.thats all it takes

[@edwardc.jrcampbell9171]

pretty easy going boss seems like...…..

[@thederrick1966]

oops

[@jaywagner4988]

Start a 5-hour energy should have been drinking red bull it would have gave him wings

[@green-zone36]

I would like to drive one that is designed to not tip over...

[@randlerichardson5826]

Nobody or nothing was hurt that’s the main thing

[@bill605able]

i faw over and i cannot get up

[@littlebuddy761]

Looks like the cats playing dead

[@andyb9974]

Andy bow

[@martincass1910]

Why would put a butcher on a rubber tired machine that's just dumb

[@fergiebadass3074]

engine oil went into air filter good way to have the engine run away

[@jessielowery4279]

I've turned over a few times

[@pinpom774]

Hye guys i can drive tha machine y you guys need i New driver machin here i am you send messege to me

[@grahamhale8844]

with the amount of roll overs , machines getting damaged and amount of cash to get running again i would have sacked your whole crew they dont take of machines and think its funny ,this vid how did he roll it on flat ground ,

[@jdcarter7659]

Those wheeled hotsaws are made to roll flip and do other funky stuff and most likely he got 1 tire on a stump other in a hole and went to his side
