[@sherrygantt2158]

Thank you, Thomas Towing & Transport!! Yall are awesome for helping Wrecked and Recovered. And, thank you for your services in the fire departments. Thank you Adam and Jeremy. You guys do a fantastic job.

[@madusan1]

Deep respect and thanks to Thomas Towing for their help in recovery. It goes without saying to Adam and Jeremy for what you both do. Its always better to have soem human remains in vehicles to bring closure to the families in cold cases but just to be able to clean up the environment is great also. Cheers and respect from Vancouver, Canada 🇨🇦! Deep respect to the LEOs that showed up and helped in checking it out.

[@Suebe1962]

Adam and Jeremy, great work on this one!!! Big shout out to Thomas Towing for their help!!! And a respectful thank you to the local LEOs for their help, as well!!! Thank goodness the alligators were nowhere to be seen! 😃

[@SeanoMacSeanomac]

What are you thanking LE for?? It's pretty sad that KZbinrs are the ones doing the job of LE!! If they weren't out there messing with people for window tint and other stupid crap they could be out there doing something that actually helps the community!! With limited resources, these guys find these vehicles!! LE with their endless resources can't find them or just don't care!! I'm pretty sure it's the latter!!

[@vickibird8007]

Great job, everyone!! Big shout out to Thomas Towing for providing such awesome equipment for such a smooth recovery!

[@CoachAshley1983]

It's funny to see the different types of reactions from the good ol' boys departments compared to larger law enforcement agencies. These guys must not get to see much action lol The guys from Thomas Towing are awesome though...love seeing these relationships being built along the way! Good job Adam & Nug.👍

[@JamesStripling-u5q]

Explain what you mean by Good Ol Boys

[@NoMoFlts]

Your comments were disrespectful and demeaning. Laughing at what you deem stereotypical imagery? All you showed was your own ignorance and prejudice. You know nothing about Brunswick County's department or any of the local departments. Insulting.

[@leonardwilliams7772]

No, department, should have ANY, problem with these guys helping. WHAT ? why would ANY, of them have ANY, problem ? Grow up. Get a clue, stop with the false pride. These guys should be thanked. To do otherwise, creates strange questions. What is it a " my football" mentality ?

​@JamesStripling-u5q calm down😂❤

[@cherylmack1260]

Congratulations and a big thank you to Thomas Towing.

[@SeanoMacSeanomac]

Thank you, Thomas Towing!! So many communities need more businesses like yours that are community oriented and step up when the community needs you!!! Bravo!!

[@reedvending2384]

You guys should look at relocating the gas tank to under the bow. Main reason is it will transfer weight off the stern because it is sitting quite low back there. A bonus would be more room back there. And awesome tow guys!

[@garyroberts6668]

For those who call your videos “boring” - at least you’re actually finding and diving on cars. What’s down there is interesting enough to me.

[@djstaley3015]

I find this interesting too

[@MeMe3-v9x]

Me too! Nothing boring here!! Thx

[@wallashakalla]

Agreed.

[@SarahLynnMurphy]

That car was in remarkable shape for being in there for twenty plus years! Probably the best shape I’ve seen. Good job guys!

[@GO-xs8pj]

Awesome job getting a junk car out of the river. Thank you Thomas Towing for bringing out the the powerful tow truck to make the pull look easy.

[@TryingtomakeitonSocSec]

Really enjoyed watching this episode! No hang up at all. You did great As well as Thomas Towing. What great rigs they have! ❤

[@simonworthington3330]

I loved this video as it went plain sailing and no issues and well done guys as another is out. Another Big Shout out to Thomas Towing for helping out .

[@helenmorelli1101]

A big thank you to Thomas Towing! They were so helpful to Adam and Jeremy! You guys are great! Stay safe and strong and healthy.

[@tarrahbarker24]

You guys are down to earth and you're not arrogant and dramatic !!

[@busbyadventures]

Great job as always guys. The one thing I noticed when you were backing off the dock is you don’t have Bumpers to protect the side of the boat. You should place that on your wishlist

[@ednaatluxton4918]

That was a perfect recovery & partnership with Thomas Towing. Great job guys. More waters cleaned & another area cleared. I sure hope you find him or some answers soon. ❤🇨🇦

Thanks 👍

Nice job guys. It's nice to have a towing company to offer their services for free.

[@showman1438]

Thanks to you guys for helping to bring closure to families and loved ones. Please, be careful out there. There is no telling what people can do to keep their dark secrets hidden.

[@PatSnyder-t1s]

Thank to Thomas Towing for their time and effort to help out Jeremy and Adam. Guys great job as always

[@NoMoFlts]

Great job, guys! As a native of this area, PLEASE *do not* go into these rivers, swamps, etc from end of March through October! Alligators and snakes. Moccasins, rattlers, copper heads, name it, they're here. even coral snakes, though they are a little more rare. Love both of y'all. Will definitely call Thomas Towing if the need arises. Beautiful trucks, operators were knowledgeable, appearances were professional. Great impression!

[@dawnfarrow3264]

Exactly! It's not a matter of IF you see snakes and gators, it's WHEN!

[@Tbowie13]

Your experience and ability to recognize a car on sonar is amazing. When i look at things on my fishing sonar, its hard to tell what youre seeing. There was an old schoolbus sank in Bull Shoals, and without a hotspot map telling me what it was, I would never be able to tell it was a bus. And a bus should be much more recognizable than a 30 yr old car. BTW, thats one heck of a towing rig! Beautiful truck and single rear acle making it more nimble.

[@JackieBeidler-c9b]

Good job 😢Adam & Jeremy! Big shout out to Thomas Towing for your help & assistance with this recovery!

[@Lorraine-k9j]

Great job, Adam and Jeremy. Thank you, Thomas Towing for helping removing the car from the river.

[@AmberLasater-gy6jx]

Thank you to the towing company for coming out and helping. Thank you Adam, and Jeremy

[@jamesatkins8344]

Awesome tow truck and service and props to you guys back at it more consistently I'm happy for you

[@henrybucki7813]

i dove in water like that at gennie springs back in the mid 70s after a lot of rain the water would be black except where the spring was.

[@LauraleyB]

Thanks for coming here!!! There are many many more that need your skills and help!!! Bit of advice from a Carolinian . Just because that car is possibly stolen does not mean there’s not a body in it. You may want to clear these cars while they’re underwater because these rough heads around here especially up near Raleigh Durham, Chapel Hill, Charleston, and some of the major cities, they will steal a car to dispose of a body, so just be prepared that even if it’s a stolen car, there may be a body in it. I would hate for you to be relaxed gravy, stolen car and then all the sudden gets shellshocked because there’s a body in it. They do around here all the time, but I really hope you guys come back because you guys are the only ones that I know of there may have been all those but the only ones I know of that have come out here, and we literally have thousands of miles of waterways that are full of stolen cars, suicides, etc. there are hundreds of families in North Carolina that are missing family members that really need that answer so that they can try to get some semblance of their life back. So thank you from someone right here less than 45 minutes on my Harley from where you just pulled this car, probably closer to half an hour depending on how fast I ride. Would love to come out and help you guys in anyway I could even if that means just bringing you guys a hot meal and some cold drinks offering your really pretty place to camp in front of a bonfire with a few adult beverages to decompress in privacy. I can even go out on the water with you!!! Been on the water. All my life can read live scan and sonar and drive a boat so if you ever back out in this neck woods, and you need an extra set of hands from someone who has a level of maturity and a level that can cook! Shoot me an email. I’m pretty sure you can figure out what my email address is you guys are super smart! Again, thank you guys for coming to the Carolinas and I really truly hope you come back to the Carolinas because we really could use your skills!

[@Windy-clouds76]

Good Pull!!!!! Glad no one was in it….

[@maureenwareham8822]

God bless you, Adam Brown. You never give up. You really don’t give up! I love the way you saw these Call cases. A big thank you and shout out to you. And the gentleman next to. I forgot his name already. Forgive me. Thank you for Thomas towing company, who responded on Facebook to you❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@cecilmckeithan5088]

There are areas all over this place that leads to water. I live in Pender county but grew up in New Hanover and there is trails that lead to the rivers everywhere good luck hope you find that young man.

Hi, Adam and Jeremy. We've seen a #short on this recovery from each of you, so it's nice to see the full video. It's a shame you didn't have the WAR truck, as that would have easily been your quickest recovery using your own equipment. Appreciate the work you both put into search and rescue and helping to clean up the environment. Thanks for sharing. Stay healthy and safe, you guys 👍

[@janeteverett1358]

If it hasn't been reported stolen , then it would obviously not be insurance fraud . you need to have a police report to file an insurance claim like that for a missing vehicle.

[@wombocombo9804]

Probably not in the early 2000’s

[@terriseaton3049]

2000 or 2024, insurance companies don’t like to pay out!

[@slabslayer258]

You don’t have to have a police report to make an insurance claim ! Well In my state you don’t .

[@NubianP6]

@@slabslayer258 yours is one of the few, because MOST states require a police report prior to filing an insurance claim. I’d hate to be a company in one of the few that don’t, because that would be ripe for fraud.
