The Heavy Wrecker will definitely be an asset but there will be a need for one of the other vehicles to go also "as a support vehicle". With only two personnel in the Heavy Wrecker, the recovery may require more hands on deck, which is something the Banana or Morvair can provide.

In times like that you can laugh or cry and it's easier to get the job done and stay on your toes with a crew full of nervous laughter than when crying scared when I broke my back I was laughing the whole time they rolled my truck on its wheels so they could cut the roof and gear shift off to get me out and while they used a winch to pull the lead fireman carrying me up the ravine while the rest held onto repelling gear they used to get to me how anyone found me is beyond me I heard people drive by most of the day my dad drove by twice on a tractor and several times looking for me the neighbor just happened to notice a broken branch had part of my mirror bracket stuck in it and decided to stop and investigate and heard my stereo so he got in the loader of his tractor and had his son lift him high enough to see over the trees I'd blown a tire faster than I should've been going on a gravel road and took air as I left the road and only damaged 1 branch within sight of the road then hit a tree and must've been thrown to the floor so hard the gear shift being in 4th held me between it and the seat and as the roof came down it just wrapped around me and held me in it was scary being in there hurt seeing what looked like alot of blood smelling both tanks I'd filled 8 miles ago leaking knowing I'm on my lid and the battery was still connected because the stereo and buzzers were going off hoping nothing shorted out and ignited the gas and I was a mile and 3/4 from home I thought for sure I wouldn't be found until someone saw a fire after the 5th or 6th vehicle toodled by thank God my chrome was polished and caught someone's eye I'd been in and out of it for almost 5 hours before being found and another almost 2 before being put in the ambulance headed a quarter mile to the helicopter by the time it took off I was already flying from whatever they put in my IV in the ambulance the helicopter crew said I was one of the funniest patients they ever had and were amazed I was walking (with a cane still) almost 2 years later when I got a chance to meet them they said flying over the emergency crews they couldn't even see my truck in the ravine and they were low looking at landing sites to find the closest safe one

[@JohnFL]

He had a winch but he said it sat on his shelf 364 days of the year. Now he has one mounted on every vehicle. No doubt we helped by nagging him into doing it.

[@100mphClub]

@@JohnFL I chuckled when he said how many are going on the new wrecker build. When Matt changes his mind, he's "all in". lol

[@mikeworkman3593]

@@JohnFL No, his business model just changed. He started out just a regular tow company(well actually he had a roofing company first, then he sold it and bought wesslers(sp?) towing). He didn't even do any off roading, they all did derby stuff 100 percent on their off time. Then he started getting calls for people stuck in the sand, so the winch wasn't necessary. This was before the banana was even painted yellow. THEN he started uploaded videos to yt at some point, he started getting more calls that he didn't used to take, stuff broke down while crawling. Between the only doing stuck vehicles(never needing the winch) to rock crawler rescues(mainly for yt views) he then needed the winches, and now he is doing so many that he is advancing to an off road wrecker. But without yt he would have never went past just your average sand hollow rescue. Point it, it had NOTHING to do with us, except for maybe the viewership being higher on videos where he was rock crawling(more exciting). This is why he doesn't video the dozens of times he gets side by sides, and just uses them for filler or almost B roll, becuase people just don't watch them as much. I personally think Trailmater's rig and recoveries are awesome, I just don't watch them as much because he doesn't have the some people there to just it personality. Which is why I can't wait for the heavy wrecker(which is probably the main reason Matt is making it, also the view count for fabrication is way higher.)

At 28k lbs MBS with a pulley system (weight taken by the anchor instead of the rope), the break-ability of the weight rated pull line is completely negligible here.

What you guys/gal do would scare the livin' daylights out of me. I LOVE watching your recovery videos. If I EVER get stuck, I know who to call. Amazing work and what great camaraderie you all have together.

[@michaelm.1947]

Glad everyone made it out without major injury. When the rock was being winched up, I was thinking, "I wish they had a blanket over those lines" and then moments after that thought, a chain broke. I'd hate for there to be an instance where anyone of our MORR crew gets hurt or killed by a line snapping back.

Their winch lines are synthetic. They don't have the whip and kill tbe same way that steel lines do.

[@MyLonewolf25]

Your content lets us see a country we have never seen or may not get the chance to see. So I appreciate all your successful rescue missions for that alone.

[@AmericanSurvival001]

Soon, it will be illegal to travel down any of these roads anyway because it’s not your country the Democrats own it and they know what’s best for everyone. God for bed an animal will have to see that road and imagine what’s this? Something that cannot be tolerated. We are currently ruled by idiots.

Tucker deserves a raise! Or a palet of his favorite cold beverage.

You should add a cross beam across the back of the banana, like a spoiler, but attached to the frame, then you can send your strap across it and have some upward leverage when pulling for scenarios like this.

[@debbiedogood8125]

Holy Cow guys! That was a nail biting recovery the whole time!!!! The whole team did an amazing job! Your guardian angels were hard at work with this one.

[@johannfindeis4421]

using the drone to get the upper view is really smart! great video

[@shadowgreathouse9277]

That country fried steak looked good and the “I think I need you to check your attitude skeeter” line was funny as hell🤣🤣🤣

[@J-Rod91]

6:09 Now that is using everything too available to you in a smart creative way!! 👍🏻

[@terryaustin1422]

Ok it took nearly the entirety of the rest of this video to get my heart to stop pounding I'm sorry Tucker my first thought was oh no not the morrvair, however the award for getting THE SHOT goes solidly to you good sir you stayed there much longer than any mere mortal should have glad your safe. Skeeter well done on alerting everyone while your in a 2 tonne run away. You guys attitude and ethics are why I continue to watch. Matt now you know how us Aussies feel watching you drive from the left kudos on a harder recovery. I might add Trevor the A arms digging in it won't move Matts face saying I'm done with this, proceeds to bump the daylights out of it till it submits 👍🇦🇺

[@robinrummel1359]

Had to laugh at what you said about Matt being DONE because he sure was! 😂

Drone eye view! I love watching Matt think through how he does these things. Way to use the tools you got!

[@davidwoermansr]

Although brakes would've been a beneficial tool on this job I believe his parking brake rule needs modified now

[@gforceforever]

This was a lot of fun to watch! Reminds me of my days in the Hoosier National Forest, with big trucks with big tires and lift kits. The mud holes were DEEP!!

*Wow very scary glad everyone is OK!!*

[@rodmcgirthy1253]

As someone who lives in the Sevierville/Pigeon Forge area, I feel it important to give you all a heads up before your visit: Our resident junkies and pill heads absolutely LOVE targeting people's vehicles at these kinds of events. Make sure you keep an eye on your property. Entire trailer setups have been jacked. They'll steal your momma's dentures if they have gold in them.

[@adamthomas4638]

Good heads up that's like in San Francisco you can't even park on the streets anymore they just smash the window and raid the car its so shitty how in today's society the criminals are so desperate they have become so blatant they used to sneak now they load up garbage bags at stores an run out an if they get caught they act offended like omg why are you messing with me scumbags at a all new high

[@bigalsretroroom]

Been up this canyon so many times, couple great fishing spots. I'm honestly surprised you've had so many jobs up there, it's never seemed dangerous, but maybe I've just always been in a vehicle that could handle the terrain.

[@loganlm10]

It’s almost like a big heavy off road wrecker would work very well for this kind of job, you should probably get yourself one of those

[@Kennymenace11]

If only you knew now lol

[@st0rmrider]

​@@Kennymenace11yeah but at the cost of losing Lizzy. Maybe these were the good old days when everything was difficult

[@georgesheffield1580]

But probably could not get it up there

[@ronv6637]

A 4wd wrecker could get almost anywhere those other rigs could

[@conanruisi]

@@ronv6637yeah usually the only mod is tires and lift and they’re basically just as capable. Maybe not as fast….. but that’s ok as long as they do the job, of course.

[@aukanmeister]

Terrible to see such a nice Landcruiser be destroyed, but glad everyone was ok in the end!

[@ToddAdams1234]

It’s a Lexus LX470, but it’s REALLY the same thing, just different trim.

[@omni_mtb3210]

Yeah, my mom has an '03 LX470. It's just a landcruiser in sheep's clothing. Like it was already mentioned, it's got the lexus badge and different trim. I hate to see one in that wrecked shape, since they are very nice.

[@aukanmeister]

Of course, thanks for pointing that out😊 I was a bit quick there.. We get the Toyota version only over here. I own the older Landcruiser station wagon, the 80 series. The Lexus equivalent will be the LX450, I belive. That's why it kind of broke my heart to see such an iconic machine be destroyed. But it is still just a machine. The people are the only thing that is really important anyway.

[@omni_mtb3210]

[@reevinriggin3570]

Road closed? Crikey, just nail a sign to a tree! I'm kidding !!!! Good job, Matt! Somehow, I get the feeling you are a man of integrity and your word is gold. You're a good man, surrounded by good people. What a great thing you have!

[@robinrummel1359]

I don't know why, but somehow having trees all around a vehicle careening down a mountain isn't as scary as having a sheer drop off on both sides while the vehicle slips and slides some. Except the part where Tucker goes down and doesn't bounce right back up! That was very scary!! 😵 Glad everyone was ok and looking forward to another interesting video when you go back for the rock! 😊👍💖

[@carlitosanch6668]

Turns out the wonderful daughter has a keen eye for the job!. Much love, stay safe.

[@brianhansen6906]

That was definitely a risky one. Glad everyone’s ok. I loved the part where the wheel fell off and you just like “well, time to just drag it” lol. That morvair is a beast.

[@Kemia_]

I love this channel. Sometimes you get a call for a Toyota Camry that got stuck 2 inches from the pavement in a little bit of sand. Sometimes you get a call for an SUV that rolled down a cliff, is undrivable, can't steer, is missing a wheel and has no brakes.

[@jamespugh3729]

That is a really sad sight- that's a very well loved and cared for Landcruiser 100/LX470! So sad! Hope no one was hurt in the truck originally......

[@gilnasty82]

Matt- “Feels like it’s budging…….” Floors it!!!😂😂😂

[@noControl556]

Reminds me of this D-bag in a Lexus I came across last weekend on a Forrest road, doing 40mph+ on a narrow road, came across another car head on in a turn and locked it down and almost went off the side of a mountain.

[@bigmarc977]

Love how the customer calmly explained his near-death accident 😅😅🤣🤣

[@davebanks7435]

That "hasben" one of the best recent clips to view team! Glad it all worked out and no one got hurt. The drone footage was a fantastic addition - just great to see how you can use it as a tool as well.
