Insane Tractor-Trailer Rollover UNDER a Bridge!

[@johnfnielsen5068]

This is Exactly why out of the only 2 towing & recovery KZbin channels I will watch, Pepe's is #1, no matter the job, it is true professionalism, a totally team oriented company

[@PepesTowingService]

[@kelleyunofficial3269]

It is seldom you see the a group pull together like this. Guys that just showed up to help. Everyone knew their job and everyone worked together. No other tow channel has the variety of recoveries, the professionalism and workers who are also friends. Easy to see the foundation of PEPE's success. If there was a Pulitzer for a recovery video, this is a shew in. Thanks to the whole crew and Josh for producing a great video. You guys are the best. During my second time viewing this, I thought about the "environmental" truck. So smart to repurpose a used truck than to create a new one. Decisions like this are how big companies get bigger.

[@PepesTowingService]

Mannnn a prize would be cool, but I'm happy enough my fans and the cool feedback from the videos you guys seem to love so much. This one though for sure is up there. Lots of work, made to look easy and fun with everyone having their place. Even me, the camera guy haha

[@VampFaye]

Al I could think of while the truck was being pulled was, "Inchworm, inchworm" song from my childhood. Great job recovering this one! It's a wonder the pavement wasn't damaged.

[@mfc4591]

The force those winches had to overcome is intense. The weight is one thing, but consider the friction and uphill too ! I always think that the compressor for the airbags is one heck of a hard working tool. Well done team, a fantastic display of hard work and implementation of experience and skill.

[@PepesTowingService]

Yup, on a flat concrete surface like this you would add about 10% drag for the friction. Pure brute strength by Big Flipper

[@craig7350]

Picking that trailer up intact without it busting open, or having to unload it saved the customer a lot of $$$$

[@PepesTowingService]

Yes! Most people would offload. It saves so much time doing it our way, but it's very very difficult and you need all the right equipment.

[@herbpetee75]

It really pays to have A GREAT KNOWLEDGE of what equipment you need to spec a unit CORRECTLY 😀

[@maxmacdonald7174]

Welcome to management Josh. People have no idea what involved in running a wrecker business.

[@PepesTowingService]

THANK YOU! Running any business in general is hard. But this is a 24/7 thing and requires sooooo much daily

[@nancyniewoehner7881]

There are a lot of 'what ifs' in doing recovery jobs. A lot of 'if I hook on this end what will happen on the other end'. A lot of thinking ahead. I couldn't do that kind of work.

[@lightningdemolition1964]

Agreed. 35 years ago when i was just starting out i would do anything to make money including transporting cars. I thought about doing more towing but realized it was a 24 hour a day job, you need duplicate equipment from day one in case something breaks down. Special training to do wreck recovery or just so you dont accidentally damage a car, insurance for a new business, etc. im glad i left it to my competition.

[@ronallen6578]

Josh, Relatively new to your channel, about 6 weeks or so. This sure wasn't quite as easy as the last one I saw that was pulling that dump truck out of the mud😊😊. You do realize that by dragging that rig out from under the overpass you just caused the owner to need a complete paint job 😂😂😂. Humor here. Quite a process here and nicely done. Thanks for sharing😊

Darn Josh! This one put you in a hard spot. Never fun to drag a truck and trailer on its side. But you had no choice. We’ve had your guys haul our RV class A when the transmission went out. Total pros. No damage from the tow and delivery to the mechanic. Love you guys! 😘

The Pepe's team is like the crew on a U.S. aircraft carrier. Everyone knows their job and everyone knows what needs to be done. It looks like organized chaos, but it's a carefully choreographed operation. That was really a smooth operation once the truck was out from under the bridge. What a waste just from the driver failing to slow down a little bit.

[@Kevan038]

There are multiple reasons as to why I never miss or dislike watching all of Pepe's Towing videos but the absolute best without a doubt is the attitude. Every single member of your guy's crew seems to really love and enjoy what they do and the comradery, teamwork and communication is so far above and beyond literally anything you see from anyone else regardless of the type of work or any other type video put up by others. Everyone of your crew gets along so well and works together not afraid to ask about any question and the responses are always respectful and explained in detail in order to help them and the whole team in general. Its just fantastic to see because I've grown so sick and tired of all these "reality shows" where they all just fight and argue and do nothing but bs around and accomplish nothing.
