Episode Three - Stuck up a mountain when the track edge collapsed!

[@IanB-cd9pe]

Sh*t happens!! But you did a fantastic job self-rescuing your truck - amazing to watch and thank you so much for filming and publishing this rescue.

[@stableianF1oracle]

Get a huge winch on the front and back then you can drive it anywhere more or less and tyre chains. 😂 Great video. Snapping the tree branch and falling was so funny when you said I’m alive 😂😂

[@joe4542]

9:21 "I'm Alive!" Brilliant! 🤣 Thanks for posting this, gives a better understanding of what happened when I watched your Insta clip the other day. Keep doing it your way Bud! 👍

[@markpaskin2429]

"I'm Alive" - OMG that was incredible, well done for keeping your composure in such a tricky situation and overcoming it, you're living a lot of people's dreams with this adventure, was great to hear some behind the scenes stories from @teapotone 's podcast - now watching all your videos from the beginning!

[@emlynwebster1121]

If you buy a proper winch and a full set of chains for the wheels you will have a lot more options

[@danieljackson3626]

For how stressful the situation was Bobby handled it so calmly. I would be cursing everything in site 🤣

[@Tempestnoon]

I have no idea about trucking. Followed after seeing you on liveration... the way I crapped myself on your behalf watching these videos! 😂 this is mad, and I love it. You're like a perfect example of how a kid can grow up if you give them space and opportunity to figure problems out. Most folks would crumble under a sitch like this. Bravo.

[@leighthomas2518]

For me its the happily sitting under a 10tonne truck, on soft ground and makshift props. I could never.

[@iain465g9]

Well done Bobby your someone who can think on their feet, you got yourself out of a problem 👍🚚

[@alecjames1426]

For the future you should fly your drone down tracks 👍

[@Missykat75]

Before you come to Australia invest in a recovery kit and couple sets of max tracks and not cheap knockoffs- watch Elnick Adventures and The Cartwrights for what they get into travelling with Isuzu truck with caravans. Loving watching your travels and can’t wait when you get to Australia 🇦🇺 if you get to Adelaide give us an oi!

[@parousia7165]

bye yourself a electric chain saw , it would spair you a lot of time ,but great job mate

[@johngittins6244]

Moral of the story, never follow your nose again ! 😂Well done, that was tough.

[@prophet2914]

Fair play to you for getting yourself out of that situation. At least you know within yourself that you have the skill sets and confidence that if anything like that happens again, you would be confident with your own abilities. Every day is a school day, learn from your mistakes, and move forward. I used turfer winch in the Army, its an old bit of kit, but it's so good.

[@thebernism1]

You did really well there. Even filming the whole thing too... I was stressed just watching it ffs🫣

[@littledrover]

I was just saying @make sure you don’t go flying”, then you did . . . 😂 sorry for laughing but it’s the sort of situation I’d get into and I don’t have you’re engineering skills. Well done!!

[@steveizz]

36:18 Red is seen walking up with the bit of wood that snapped off😂 been following this journey since the start. Stay safe and great content!

[@191685]

big fella, how about a winch on ther front . Big truck to be digging out .

[@LordFlashheart1]

Pissing myself on the fall (sorry) glad you were uninjured, Solid work retrieving the truck. legend

[@RanDomRikM]

Another epic 'adventure'.... blood, sweat, determination and some steam got you out. Well done lad 👏🏻

[@ratnadipmajumdar8179]

Very risky condition but you handle it wisely 😊.

[@keltait]

not in a vehicle that big but i caught my wheels in the same soft dry leaf nonsense doing a 3pt turn onn tight trail and i slid backwards and sat with my foot on the brake with my leg shaking up and down like a jack hammer until i got the courage to pop the hand brake on and get out..... only to find my 2 front wheels in the air. i had to jog 1.5 miles down to a ranger station for help as i had no cell service. i felt this so much.

[@Abandonedexplorer]

Watched this on Instagram when it happened and thought you did it again lol then realised it's the same moment. Brilliant content bro becoming my favourite channel keep it up

[@diane_fourie]

You're a Legend 🤟🏻 Lesson learned and moving on 👌🏻😀

[@MickMoans-mk2sal]

Great video loving watching your journey

[@mattkeenan3371]

Gave me some serious anxiety this video 😂😂

[@josephmurphy5284]

Good effort great sense of achievement isn't it once you get it out, if I can give you a little bit of my wisdom after 30 years of doing what you did there, if you get a feeling will it be OK, stop get out walk the route look for worst case scenario's if you've answered all you questions crack on, remember you can always track build to get through before it becomes an issue. Finally strong effort there, keep up the good work and the fact you still filmed and didn't chin it off to get on with the task made it even harder for you. Appreciate your dedication. Have to say falling from the tree made me spit my tea out and woke up my dog 😂

[@elizabethbreakey1802]

Awesome video. You really McGuyver'd your way out.

[@joshwilson7372]

Excellent recovery. Took some balls aswell. Proper grafter

[@douglasking2973]

Haha my kind of attitude. Yeah can go up there lol. When in reality it's not a good idea but that's the fun part I'm a truck driver and take truck places it shouldn't go so to see you go up mountains. Mad respect to you

[@gloriamariadc7757]

God!!! Imagine if u didn’t hav all those many blocks!!!???!?!? Wow!!!

[@3861795]

С самого начала у него была какая-то тактика и он ее придерживался). Красавец! Жду свой грузовик)

[@ricknick74]

Absolutely nuts mate 😂👌🏻

[@alisonmackenzie2344]

Im really enjoying following your adventures. And this one was "an adventure" !! Whilst this was certainly very stressful for you, you did keep your head together and think your way out of it, so from an awful situation, you should take that from this, your resilience and fitness, mentally and physically, got you out of it. But also its a lesson on always staying safe and within reasonable limits, you could have hurt yourself when you fell hanging off the tree. Anyway you live to fight another day and you've learnt some things.

[@SteveWaller-r8y]

First time stuck you know it won't be your last I know you're thinking about more recovery stuff maxtrax winch etc etc I would think about getting a motorcycle or e-bike for those tracks you're not sure about good to do recon love your show you're doing a great job

[@dawnmoriarty9347]

Phew! Glad you're safe....and the truck of course

[@karenclift1007]

Can’t believe u got it off the cliff well done another great video looking forward to the next adventure with ya mate ❤

[@dougstar007]

Fair play Bobby lad getting yourself out of there! Anyone can get themselves out of a sticky situation in familar friendly circumstances with assistance..... Takes a different mindset to overcome issues like this, hats doffed to you ! PS, dont be writing the truck off yet I need to see you make it to Oz!!! Good luck and keep the amazing content coming please

[@chilledandeasy]

Absolutely worn out from just watching that!

[@EVO4EVA]

When u fell off the tree 😂😂😂😂 Highlight of the vid fir me. Loving your vids.

[@Straitjacket808]

Great video. I know that feeling too well lol. Hats off to getting your truck out. What an adventure.

[@276tracey]

Bloody scary situation.... You did amazing to get yourself out of that .... And in shite weather too...loving your videos.good luck for the rest of your epic journey...stay safe

[@adventures_of_a_dale]

Great stuff…..actually think the most dangerous bit was when you fell off the tree, plenty of folks been impaled falling out of trees.

[@TheDougmeistor]

Hahaha. Good on ya! It’s all part of the journey. Tears and then joy. It’s a rollercoaster buddy! I had to limp my truck on three gears through a national park in northern BC for a couple of hundred k, 30kph. Ahhh stressful but good memories. Keep it up.

[@terbyrne1682]

Looks like you were very very lucky.

[@craigadams6232]

Fair play , solid graft got you out that jam!

[@jamesmoore2527]

Epic recovery well done, did you say you don't have a winch is that something your thinking of getting

[@garyfoster4704]

Axle Airbags ... Electric winch 👍

[@susanmoriarty9900]

Omg dude 😳 you took a nasty fall! Glad you are ok, and got your truck out! Stay safe!

[@LeoNelsonUK]

Some balls, there! Great content 👍🏼

[@CP-ix8vq]

10:10 - i genuinely thought you were going to say "but" i've forgot the jack

[@elmafudd9703]

You need air bag jacks you can lift 14 tones with one of them. Also a chain saw licence.

[@peterrutter7332]

Hi Bobby what a great recovery I used to do a lot of off road racing and recovery of big trucks in the Army. Well done mate. Sorry but I did laugh watching you fall off the tree 😂

[@rabbitburrow1867]

Thanks for the laugh mate, things you do in the moment up a tree.😂 Glad you are ok after falling.

[@BillyMacLeod-h1u]

I get the want or need to do something adventurous, we all f___ up and as long as we learn from it then we can move forward

[@hiker88]

Really enjoying the series! Safe travels.😊

[@sscramble]

And, get a Makita battery chainsaw onboard, they’re great!

[@UrbanVanlife]

I’m alive 😂😂 brilliant . Love the can do attitude mate bravo sir bravo

[@robclack9645]

My bro so glad u are hear to tell the tail hugs ❤❤

[@nevleeuwen]

Very good job. As we are traveling also in a MAN I would like to now which Tirfor (KG) you used. It proofed a worth full tool. And we carry 4 pieces of wood, but we need more I see. Keep op living the dream and make nice videos for us to watch and learn. Kind regards, Niels #Lion Family On Tour.

[@davidbenn8079]

Good effort Bobby, great videos 😀

[@treebandido2447]

The only f@#k up I saw was you taking chances swinging off that tree, you can't rescue a truck with brok legs so look after yourself first. Other than that... Top Effort dude and a good well considered recovery.

[@RichardOrr1977]

well done 👍🏼

[@Robert_Hall90]

Fair play! Good job keeping your cool and still managing to film it! Take my hat off to you good job

[@xMAGIKZ]

Love the content mate, keep up the great work!

[@anthonyproctor8115]

Wells done Bobby👍

[@deanetaylor3353]

Some graft there Bobby 💪💪💪fair play

[@gloriamariadc7757]

Wow, ur the real Walter Finny!!!!! (From th movie 🎥) 🏆🙌🏻💯 wow!!!!!!!!!!!

[@artemistheoverlander]

Watching you under your own truck and jacking it on soft ground made my arse twitch... No hate, you did what you needed to do. Absolutely love your content on here and other media too, and following your journey with envy! edit, recovering that on your own was impressive, too!

[@bartsimpson82]

Yes Bobby lad :) epic episode. Your like the old top gear trips but without a script. Keep it up mate and see you on insta.

[@JakeParker-m2w]

10/10 effort 10/10 video! Top job🫡

[@davidddd7594]

great watch

[@lilliandowling8622]

I watched this on the day, what a situation, it looked horrendous, I felt for you, being alone, it could have had ended so much worse, thankfully not. You did an outstanding job, only eating bread & honey! However at no point was Red in any if the footage, I am sure he played his part! Is Marie asleep yet? I know I need a nap! Your a super hero! Etc etc etc, Love you truck loads! 😴😘🤗

[@davidshearer9]

Where was Red in all of this? Snoring his head off? 😂

[@AndrewPaulK80]

😂😂😂what the actual hell man…….abit nuts you mate 😂

[@rdcanyon]

Epic grafting

[@pauls4708]

realties of a 10 tone truck. 20 20 hindsight...be careful

[@sscramble]

Serious question, although the truck is mega why not have a lighter setup so you can go anywhere? 10.5 tonnes is not going to go well on most tracks like that..! Around the world…

[@treebandido2447]

Surely the cool factor is worth more than ease of use 😂😂. That thing is a beast!! Or a pig if it gets stuck....

[@paulraper794]

Bobby answered this before during the build. He wanted to be able to go very “off grid,” carrying a sh!t tonne of water etc and everything he’d need. Plus wanted a bit of wow factor and but if character. Mixing van life with off roaring etc. I was worried when he was driving down those mountain tracks with a 10 tonne beast though 😂

[@lewispalmer8822]

Invest in a battery chainsaw. Will be very useful

[@mikehuddy9274]

Your Instagram post didn't give it justice compared to this video ps That's not a road it's fing path 😂😂😂

[@CulpritsTV]

Who is marie, is she doing the full trip with you? sorry if i have missed it

[@Chrisytigers]

You can tell uv spent alot of time on site lol

[@hiker88]

Question for anyone: does the buzzing mean the lockers are engaged? Does anyone know a video explaining the drivetrain of these vehicles? Thanks!

[@barbaraanowak284]

I really enjoy your videos, but your audio.. 😬could be better! maybe a better camera? or at least invest in a small mic, you could clip on, would make a huge difference if we heard you well an the volume wasn't jumping around! 👌

[@roteldorel]

[@roteldorel]
