If your pain is inflammation you could start check out ibuprofen. If that doesn't help you might talk to your doctor about Lyrica (it'snota narcotic). It helps me, I have other ideas but them are irrelevant. I got hurt in a construction accident 23 years ago and being disabled like this isn't for weak minded person.

Little piece of advice from a tow truck driver instead of having the cable run on the side of the bed like that and get a 4x4 or 6x6 cut a v in it and let the cable run through that instead of the bed that way it doesn't destroy your cable or your bed

Francis has a point, when working on my parents farm in the uk we used to do a lot of logging using winches and heavy cables, the farm was about 3000 acres which in the uk is large, we had a lot of forest land that we would clear. One of the winch operators who had been doing the job for around 30 years used to take chances like that, one day we were pulling a massive oak tree up a hill with one of the winches, the cable was not very old and was rated far greater than anything we would use it for, I was at the bottom with 5 of the loggers, Jason the winch operator was at the top with another 3 guys, I saw the tree get caught then twist side ways, however it happened the cable went bang. We heard a lot of screaming seconds later and ran to the top of the hill, what I saw will haunt me forever, Jason who was watching the cable spool on reel was slumped backward over the winching rig with half of his head missing, the cable cut through it like a surgeon, the screaming was from the 3 guys who were grown men just running around in shock at how quick it happened. Cables scare the sh@t out of me now so PLEASE be careful and don’t get complacent.. I love your show so much I wouldn’t know what else to Watch… Take care guys .. always …

[@marvindebot3264]

Hey, a few observations here, let's do the important one first. I know that was new cable and you had a rag as well but as an old Navy guy taught me years ago never use gloves if holding a winch line. If a loose strand jags your hand you may get a bit of a rip, if it jags a glove it can pull your hand into the works and that;'s bad, mmkay? Use just the rag, it will pull out of your hand. That wreck is a tribute to the survivability of Audis, there are a lot of cars in which that would not have gone well. Glad to see you didn't sell the rollback like you were going to, it's way too handy.

[@Therealnelson13]

Heavy D with all these recoverys you have been doing, have you ever considered taking a wreckmaster course? I'm not saying your wrong but there are definitely several of your recoverys that if they were approached with a different tactic then it would not only make the situation safer but save on a lot of wear and tear on your equipment!!

Keep up the good work. Just be safe about it.

[@JS-dh7kk]

Hats off to those Audi engineers that designed that tow hook.

[@JackMacLupus]

Indeed. Actually back in my childhood every car of a german brand had a non-removable tow-hook on the front and back. Today you only see those "You have to screw it in before you can tow the car" hooks where 95% of the drivers dont know where the hook is stored in their car. Okay, the plus is, you dont see the two hook all the time, only when you need it, but if the driver doesnt even know where he finds the hook it costs WAY too much time. But still pretty durable, just like the rest of the TT. I saw TT's coming out of crashs in one piece where other cars where torn apart.

[@kengreen4933]

[@FabFunty]

@@JackMacLupus You didn't saw it on the older cars, it wasn't like they stick out off the bumper it was on the frame you had to go down on your knees to really see it and connect the cable it's today in a more convenient reachable spot but therefore must be hidden for clean look.

[@bretbuggenhout4415]

Nice recovery, looked easy but please be careful with this. Looks like your cable had a kwist or nick in it and watch out when pulling to never stand close orvin the way of the cable. If it would have snapped or the one towpoint had broken off someone could have had a bad day or wurse. Heavy D was just nextto the cable, one snap and game over. Just friendly advice, love the channeland you all. So please be careful and have a great day. Greetings from Antwerp Belgium Bret

Heavy D, A suggestion for you , build a small 'A' frame that drops into the rail pockets that is tall enough to accommodate a snatch block, so you are not dragging the cable over the side. By using one snatch block so the cable spools straight into the winch, and then feeds the snatch on the 'A' frame you will have better control of direction and less damage to the equipment.

[@alanventures]

And can run the levers without his head 2 feet from a raggedy cable!

[@ruststar]

That would make sense but that’s not how they work

[@fiendeng]

the flatbed is littered with holes to attach a snatch block if you properly park the vehicle in the line of pull

[@lycanhd]

nothing better than a good "Snatch" 🤣

[@hunglo_ren]

Could’ve parked at an angle more accommodating to the angle of the pull and def would recommend using the snatch points and having one higher so u don’t decapitate urself when the line snaps and ur head is maybe a foot or 2 from the line the way it is now. Just some safety tips from ur caring audience! Much love!

[@kammakconsultinggmail6497]

You guy's might already know this but, I'm going to suggest it anyway. Used to Tow for a living and on "MOST" automatics there is a little plug by the shifter that you use a little flat blade screw driver or pick and pry it out. Then you put screw driver down in hole and depress "neutral switch" and you can put vehicle into neutral to winch it on a Rollback or trailer. Not 100% sure on an Audi TT though.

[@JeRKII]

Almost commented on someone else comment with the same subject/subjects. But had to add my own... Noticed the bad cable was on the H.E.T. , that Heavy D was in a very bad spot if that cable had broken or come off for any reason and last thing I didn't see commented on was the crew below the car for the same reason...... It's awesome you guys are doing your best to clean up the environment but if for no other reason then to be able to watch your kids grow and have their own kids please be a bit more careful. I'm not a professional and have never run a wrecker of any kind but used a come-a-long and a trailer and cheated the man a time or 2. Headed North in the next week will have to do my best to stop by and buy a few items from the store.... On a positive note you guys are truly amazing

Few things from a tow truck driver put the snatch block at the end of your bed will give you better pull rate and then stand on the opposite side the cable is pulling so if it snaps your safe of the cable backlash and then also make sure none is walking behind the car as you pull if it breaks could hurt them just a few things I saw that I'd add a little bit of my knowledge

Maybe them looking into the wall of the fallen they’ll start taking these recovery’s seriously before they end up on it as well. I’ve seen them do several things that are basic no-no’s in the towing and recovery industry. Things they teach you on the first day.

I recommend taking a look at YT channel Ron Pratt. He does towing & recovery in SE Missouri. He includes lots of instructions, tips, and warnings. He uses a post section with a v-notch cut into it. He runs his cables over the notch, instead of the edge of the rollback bed. It protects the cable from damage & catastrophic failure. I was cringing through your entire recovery. Thank you for your excellent videos.

My two cents... others have already pointed out the safety concerns so I wanted to offer a different perspective. While it's fun to watch the team pulling off crazy recoveries & stunts, it's really uncomfortable for many in the audience to see team members putting themselves in unnecessary danger. Not only because we know the dangers of standing next to a cable under tension or underneath a suspended load, but we also know there are other viewers who _don't_ understand the hazard & think it's OK because they can see you doing it. There's plenty of room for riskier activities without becoming complacent about safety... far too many safety regs are written in blood and we just want everyone to go home in one piece so we can enjoy watching you guys for years to come. 👍

Got camera guys standing behind the car. Got Dave underneath the rigging with wicked tension on it. This was sketchy. Love you guys, but that was a little too tense for me.

"There you go, you got it. Pull it up" One of my top 3 favorite movies

[@RichieRouge206]

What a great job, Allen is awesome. Personally I can’t stand TTs so no loss in my book, but a great rescue just the same.

[@stephanohman3903]

the recovery episodes are some of my favorites

[@americanrambler4972]

You guys are still a long way from being professional towing and recovery experts. Mostly a bunch of guys having fun playing with big trucks and breaking lots of big and little stuff. I am not a tow truck guy, but I saw plenty of questionable stuff being done during this recovery. But you do make entertaining You Tube content.

[@raynetorrin]

Yeah they really need to go and learn how to use their stuff. It is only a matter of time before some one gets hurt or killed and then we get the " I don't know what happened " video

[@thybluefox]

I was cringing at how close to the cable they were sitting while pulling the car up the slope - despite wondering minutes before whether the towing point would hold. If that thing goes it’s going to whip and take off heads.

[@x8xballx]

@@thybluefox So much cringe with the guy walking right behind the car as well... if that hook had broken he'd have been dead. but hey.. he got the shot..

[@waltcomotorsports3994]

My favourite was with the old crane out in the salt flats.. the loop that came off that wrecker could have gone through at least 5 human heads lol but they dont like to talk about that stuff

[@reecemccann8053]

I mean considering they have no real training you can't complain with what they have achieved over the years. But yes their is some work needed in the health and safety aspect of things

[@Caffeinated-Veterinarian]

Nice recovery! Glad to see the 5 ton wrecker back in action

[@troupier88]

Love the peaceaful shot of the neighborough. It's not only dust, sweat and tears 😊

[@mikemccabe7124]

definately on team Jack Sparrow.. man who'd of thought that audi would drive thru that canyon one more time, even tho it was on a flat bed and not from its own power but it still went thru ther with class one last time on the back of that classy flatbed

[@rebeccaude4412]

I just became much more impressed with the tow hook 🤣! We’ve always joked that it would snap off if someone backed into it but that was an impressive show of strength!

[@karlmorrison7933]

hey guys we here in western PA think ALLEN is by far the best thing thats happened to this channel in quite a while!!!!

[@TheUnseenWaffle]

Alan has to much swag to be drinking from a bottle 🤣🤣🤣🤣 gotta love it!

[@5ShotProductions]

Maybe I missed something, but: Why are the newest videos of HeavyD so short? "Normally" these kind of recovery's were at least 30min long, and now stretched 18min? Why? Beides that: Thanks for the video. The "driver" of this car must be protected by at least 10 angels... to walk away unharmed after a crash like this. Folks, there's the proof: We Germans do built fast cars, and they are built like a tank 🤨🤪 Kind regards from Bavaria/Germany 🇩🇪, Philipp 👋🏻

[@jacobfleetwood4314]

Team jack sparrow all day Miss Heard is a mean lady lol

[@GraydonShaun]

Indeed Team Jack Sparrow

[@igitha..._]

I've become so addicted to your channel and Adventures with Purpose and the vids of you guys together are totes primo. But uhh it ain't just the cable that's worn - those forklift tyres are worn out too..! Bald tyres on a forklift seems like not the greatest of ideas! Would reduce safety and traction significantly... Keep safety paramount mate it's important ! We don't wanna lose any of you to something as trivial as wear and tear...! Keep up the great work and content !

[@americafirst7794]

Love your channel man keep up the good work God bless and be careful 👍👍

[@wags9777]

the real crime here is that an audi tt is considered an exotic.

[@PsunnProductions]

Exactly what I was thinking

[@raudpats0]

Tt rs is limited edition. Bit less supercar then r8 but not much.

[@markholmes1346]

Team Sparrow for sure! You made that recovery look easy! Great job guys! 👏

[@brianmason8400]

I'm honestly amazed that little screw I tow hook held for that recovery. They don't deal w side pull very well or any off angle pull for that matter. Basically made for a tie down. But yes, I do hope the driver wasn't critically injured.

[@jdgost]

I see a huge recovery y'all can do at Lake Mead while the water line is SOOOOOOOOOOO Low . So many Sunk boats that are visible now. Love the channel and keep it up .Thanks

[@leolegend9247]

More footage of Hans, dude is hilarious 😂😂

[@GasGas1252010]

It's a shame to wreck such a great car. Probably one of the best cars on the planet when it comes to driving experience

[@KornflakezRandomStuff]

@MtgTerrorKing Basic Audi is everything non RS

[@Sheisty360]

@MtgTerrorKing what is a high level to you? And what do you drive?

[@SilentCougar]

I know others may have mentioned this, but a 'side puller' set up on your roll back would save a lot of hassle and wear n tear on gear. Ron Pratt made one up for his fleet, a simple piece of kit but well worth the adding to your kit. Great job all the same though.

[@helenkelley8788]

Sad ending for that beautiful car...good job ok n everyone's part .you all make work look way to fun .. especially diesel Dave's...picking on Hans... 😂

[@rahul_2321]

I wouldn't call a TT RS an "exotic" car😂......but it is a really solid sports car
