Even with the mastery recovery of a vehicle that should not have been down that trail, this video is a prime example of how wheeling can be successfully determined by mere inches of wheel placement and vehicle speed. When the disabled truck started sliding off of the trail experience, said stop to halt the slide. With some minor adjustments and very controlled vehicle movements, a very highly dangerous situation was averted, and the successful recovery could continue.

They would have used a helicopter. A really big expensive one. I think their other option would be to hire Rory's crew to disassemble the truck, so the pieces could come out on a smaller helicopter or by a narrow buggy.

If the Samurai couldn't pull it out, I still think taking off the bed and axles and then cutting the bed in half the long way would have made it all fit in a narrow trailer with several trips. Maybe pull the drivetrain if it was too heavy for the trailer to carry frame plus drivetrain.
