Alan from ‪@YankumRopes‬ was in town for the weekend when I got a call for a recovery on a stolen utility truck that had been found deep in the national forest, so he came along to help out enjoy a day in the mountains. The insurance company wasn't too sure on the size and weight of the truck, so I didn't know if it was within ratings for my 4x4 wrecker to tow it down the road, and I wasn't sure if I could get me rollback to it. So my solution was to haul my wrecker into the woods with my rollback, then take the wrecker up the mountain to recovery the truck.

A long time ago we had a concrete truck with a rock stuck between the first set of rear wheels. The driver was trying to hit the rock loose. He had no luck. I went over to him and said do you want me to get the rock out? He said yes, I took a chain went over the top of rock and placed the hook to the chain. The other end of chain and put behind his front tire on the ground and laid excess next to chain on the ground. I told him to back up. The front tire ran over the chain on the ground and pinned it to the ground and when chain tightened up it pulled the rock out.

Thank you for calling a binder it's proper name. Here in the Midwest they call them boomers. Being from the West Coast myself and hauling logs for a few years, I know the correct terminology for "boomer chains" and binders. I get into discussions/arguments all the time with native Missourians. Love your channel. Keep up the good works that you do for others.

[@randyc4959]

It must be a regional thing, in my memory they were always called "binders." I have heard people refer to the use of a binder as "boom it down" (that is, tie down a load. Tight to the point of near damage, usually). Missouri, at one time thought of as "a catch basin for everything running loose," can be as varied in people, methods, and language, (not to mention hospitality or insularity) as it's topography.

[@modacare4546]

@@randyc4959 That’s right Randy. The phrase “boom it down” that you referred to, came from what we called “boomer chains” in logging. That’s what we belly wrapped the logs with so they couldn’t try to roll.

[@ve2cii]

Casey is 100% right. I was towing vehicles 50 yrs ago with a tow truck similar to the one in the video. The straps carry the load and the chains are just there for safety so they should be a bit loose.

Amazing--I got here within minutes of this being posted and only 6 comments. I find myself wondering why would someone steal this kind of vehicle, drive it to an isolated place to abandon it?

I have found that it is best to Work With Nature. When the bumblebee got stuck in the corner, it was trying to get back to The Light. If you had thrown a jacket or floormat love the window, it would have likely found the open door, the closest and brightest light source. This works when a bird gets caught in a garage, black out the windows, and leave the door open. Their instincts are to fly Up and to the light. They will go down if you darken the garage and leave them alone.
