UNTOLD STORIES from our top 5 recoveries! What REALLY happened behind the scenes!

[@kalluncheeseman935]

Gotta love when the boys make a new video I'm always looking at there channel looking for a new one just can't get enough of em

[@jayakrishna5693]

Same

[@nickt9467]

Tim's level of enthusiasm when making it through a tough drive is always a bit contagious,. I'm stoked just watching and I'm halfway around the world

[@darrenhansen1154]

The 3 winch recovery on Moreton island was unlucky to not make the top 5, that was an epic recovery.

[@Quintara2001]

so true, that recovery gave me chills, I have never seen anything like it in my life.

[@matthewhill2467]

Man I wish I knew what I was doing with a camera. My heart belongs in my 4wd and would give me left nut to do it for a living. you guys are absolute legends, thanks for keeping dreamers like me happy

[@gerhardjansenvanrensburg7040]

Hallo form South Africa 🇿🇦 Love the videos 🛻 SOOTY is Absolute Weapon 💯 Would love to see Shorty back 👍

[@brianm5753]

Night shots on this show are better lit than 90% of movies

[@shredfest30]

I gotta say, you guys seriously wheel harder than anyone, with the best footage on KZbin... Great recap on some of the best moments you guys put out!

[@stephenlambrick3424]

8 hours 1 vehicle! I watch all your uploads and cant wait the next! Most dramtic recovery think i have ever seen is from fellow Australias All 4 Adventure "When Recovery Goes Seriously Wrong Part 2" uploaded 7 years ago. High adrenaline stuff! If you haven't it seen it worth watching.

[@kevinshaber8742]

Not more stuck, but an as-epic recovery. Young and dumb a friend and I dove down a steep embankment into a dry riverbed. And once down we discovered his 4wd front axle disconnect was broken and my tire chains were ineffective. No winch between us. My HiLift and every shoestring of rope we had stretched to the nearest tree. We HiLift winched a couple inches at a time because that’s all the stroke it had left after the ropes stretched. But we got us out!

[@atheosxgaming]

"What Really Happened".... Guys thats why were subscribed. This video shouldnt need to exist.

[@ChuckUnderFire]

Next time you guys are looking for a video idea that’s not “Beers in the Shed”, and don’t have a trip loaded and ready… THIS is an awesome format to review some highlights over the years. Love it! Do More!

[@ozkiwioutdoors]

That recovery you guys did on the $1000 track when that hilux snapped a steering arm was pretty epic

[@chriskingston6054]

Ranger

[@easty8242]

So some mates and I were up at woods point/ Aberfeldy, Vic area and we decided to try this track. I drive a pathfinder on 31s and we quickly find ourselves at the point of no return. And to get back out, it’s hundred of meters of 33-35” cut out ruts and rock steps. Those 6 kms took over 7 hours to do, constantly having to turn around my mates car to winch me… I was winchless! I’ve never been more stuck. 👍

[@neelsbotha4120]

The only recovery I would have liked to see in this compilation, would be the one where Jesse recovered the Ranger with the trailer on the back, using the GQ race truck. that was absolutely mental

[@johnhannonHanno]

Don't think I will do Tasmania! Excercise Grass Parrot, Shoalwater Bay, Feb. 68. Every vehicle in the Battery was stuck and left behind with a skeleton crew to get them out, Shouts of joy when you got one unstuck and made 10 metres. We didn't have anything modern like Maxtraxs so we cut down smallist trees and laid them across the road. Our Landrovers didn't have winches but he had mandromic 'Turfor' winches..Took days and we got nowhere.

[@perthbmx8]

Gotta say I loved watching you Bois getting that 79 out I'm a plasterer and in my time of labouring I moved more dirt than a second hand bobcat always a laugh to see someone else on the end of a shovel cus I know the struggle

[@MattysWorkshop]

One word mate. “Brilliant”

[@louisknipe3679]

Great compilation! My advice here on Nr.1 would have been to winch @ +/- 45degreeds right, going forward, but first to move mud from the stuck left front wheel, sort of making a "ramp" up and out. By doing so you almost force the vechile out of the suction created, but also allow for some harder surface on the front end, lessoning drag on winch. Try it next time, has undone many tractors this way during planting season.

[@ianrunyon2423]

Howdy y’all down in upside down land🤠🤚🇺🇸! I’ve been watching from SW Louisiana USA and love the content. Just my opinion… I’d call the West Cape York recovery the Tombstone recovery. Y’all had that large (termite mound?) clay wall right near the doomed truck. Lookin forward to lots more content 👍👍 Y’all stay safe and great trip!

[@GR8Tmate]

Yeah that’s a Termite mound, they are everywhere up there. They come a lot bigger than that one too 👍

[@rpalmer274]

It's crazy the water is so warm I would trade you in a heartbeat haha🇨🇦

[@HR60086]

I'm still waiting on some updates on the new Rig. Cant wait to see how it turns out compared to the 200 Series

[@peterdawes9735]

Yalwal (Monkey gum fire trail).Is one of my fave places to go when there is a chance of it being wet. My '94 troopy is locked and loaded so, not bothered by the wet condition's besides, swollen creek's n stream's being impassable so, three young bloke's in their minimally equipped Luxy(front locker, front bar no winch), Triton(front locker and almost bald A/T tyres no bar work) & 80's zook(fearless driver, positive attitude) came with me. I had to recover all three vehicle's at least once then, I put mine on it's side about three quarter's the way up. No damage but, I had a red face for a while. One of the best days of off road fun ever.

[@targetoz5470]

My bogged story. Years ago we owned an old 90's Pajero lwb wagon and used to visit my wife's uncles 25 acre farm in Mudgee NSW a few times a year to get away from Sydney. One weekend we decided to visit and go wheeling around the property, we came up to what looked like a fairly easy steep climb which we had to drive through a dam overflow ravine, the ravine looked a little damp when we walked it first so thought lets send it. Got up with no issues at all, wife and kids loved it and my sons both said "again daddy" so off we went. Drove down another trail to attempt it again, but this time just as we hit the ravine I felt the front of the car dip down and forward movement stopped, no problems, hit reverse but no, the back of the car sunk down. I took just one more attempt to go forward and reverse and by this stage it hit the rails, it was proper bogged. No winch, no trees in front or behind to winch even if I had one, no high lift jack, nothing, except for and old TEA20 Massey Ferguson tractor on the property, thought we were saved. Went and got the tractor set up the rope on the rear, got the missus to drive the Paj while I manned the tractor...apart from some impressive tractor wheelies the Pajero is stuck. The other problem was to get to the car you had to drive through a back gate and do a sharp right to avoid driving into a ditch then go further down about 50m to do another hard left over that ravine to drive up where the Pajero was, this was the description I gave our local flat top tow truck guy to see if he was keen to give it a go...an hour later he was there, had a look and sent the truck down and around to get to the Pajero. He then reversed up to it me thinking he will snatch me but he tips the flat top right up so that it digs in then connects his top winch to my car and pop! Out she came. Much to my surprise he made back out with no problems and so did I of course, if it wasn't for him we would have had to catch a bus back to Sydney.

[@81clive]

Thursday means.... 4wd/24 best show on KZbin 😁👍🍻👌

[@daveedwards3198]

Getting the Goodyear Ranger out of the Tassie mud with no steering was pretty epic

[@anulfadventures]

That brought back some muddy memories of my own. I once had to get pulled out by a log skidder. All my bogging adventures were before the winch of course. I even bent a high lift jack. I put it between two logs and jumped on it. Still use it today(for small lifts). You blokes though, take the prize in my books.

[@aidenlobegeier1910]

I want to see more of the dirty 30 and Daryl but we still love sooty

Lets hear it boys, keen to hear behind the scenes💪

Awesome stuff WoW remembering those trips were awesome and WoW them recoveries on those trips crazy .. big thumbs up

[@jamesmorris2957]

Now listen buggers, I know you read alot of comments yea. But give me a chance, I live in Botswana, inland country border linging the country South Africa. Daily we get South African, European, American, Australian etc visitors into our beautiful land of wilderness n extreme 4wdriving. I have been Watching ur channel for many of years now, why not change of scenery? Change of land? Do a touring adventure in the land of lion king. I can promise u n mark my words, u will see everything u haven’t seen in Australia (my dad lives in Aus n I have seen the wilderness) pull in n I shall show u in our little county what we have to offer. Cheers buggers hope u get back to me. Compliments to 2022. Travel safe cheers. 🤘🏻

[@nickjennings8317]

Greetings from England. I noticed from several of your latest videos that you appear to be moving away from the traditional type of tree saver and are now using what looks like a large diameter of synthetic rope. Could you show this in more detail at some point please. It is an interesting concept. Cheers Non Stick Nick

[@ahinds5779]

The sunk patrol at Morton island was a pretty mad recovery

[@nathanfarr4493]

That was a pretty epic recovery for the number1 spot for recent times. But I still think the patrol under water on Fraser was insane

[@jroyludwig6360]

Really enjoy watching u guys....can't get enuff

[@001dgw]

The recovery of the dirty30 rollover was pretty epic. Maybe not as hard as some of those, but still epic.

[@jetmajorxboxps5105]

Currently binge-watching vids. Currently on the Snowy Tassie trip.

[@NickMango]

I can’t remember the last time you guys had to turn around. You need to go back there an do that track to the end. Revenge!

[@Dogebreadzz]

Any time this channel uploads I always watch the video straight away Edit: also thinking about a GU patrol as my car for p plates.

[@888johnmac]

have you priced insurance yet ??

[@Dogebreadzz]

@@888johnmac nah im just thinking im only 13 a the moment mate

[@turbostyler]

I fricken love these recoveries especially the one where you guys winched the burned out car up on the trailer.

[@glensubtorq]

Fantastic compilation of some seriously crazy times on the track! Great work lads, look forward to many more adventures! 👍😎

[@samsymes001]

That creek to monkey gum is drivable now! Did the gum in a stock MK triton a few weeks got winched twice!

[@itsme_2183]

All this reminds me of a trip we did in Botswana in Africa a few years back. The terrain there is some places is sandy. We got stuck multiple times but we had one situation with a big V8 Touareg stuck on it belly in the sand. It could not get out under its own power or with tracks under the wheels. Luckily a we had a Defender in the convoy with a kinetic rope, after 2 failed attempts the Defender driver gunned it and that big Touareg flew about a meter in the air as it got unstuck. First and last time I've seen a fully loaded vehicle fly.

[@JUICEDUPxX]

The best bit of kit you must take on every 4wd trip is not a only a runva but every trip needs sooty..!!!! Go SOOTY..!!!!! Without it, you will still be in tassie now

[@williamflorance3863]

Just a suggestion, next time you tackle that track in Tassie maybe take a D6 with a tree pusher and swamp tracks... Thanks for the entertainment!

[@johnwilson2338]

😆😆! And as I commented earlier, multiple sets of snatch-block-n-tackle would have made your life Way easier! And you could have been to beer-o'clock much earlier! But for #1, I'd agree with you blokes. 👍🤙🤘🤟🤞🤪! Keep on 'wheelin' mates!

[@matthewjeffrey531]

#5 did it on the weekend both ways no problems and there is now an easy line on the far left

[@terryj257]

One time I got so stuck, in some mud, it wouldn't move forward or back, even an inch. So I tried what every 18 year old would try. I floored it, thinking that if I just dig down to where there is more traction, I'll get out. Well the old Toyota truck didn't find anything to grab on to, and down, down, down she went. I had a snorkel, on the truck and I had one for me. Neither were high enough. Mud started choking both me and the old Toyota. I finally decided to go for help. When I got back, with a helper and his tow truck, it was hard to find the truck, we had to watch for bubbles. We hooked up a 30,000 lb winch to get it out. The winch was struggling to get it out. It actually stretched the Toyotas frame and body! When we got it out it had two more doors and it said Nissan on it. I was astonished at the sight, but the tow truck driver assured me that it happens all the time.

[@Stoneforth]

I would prefer you keep old burnt out vehicles in place. I love driving past old wrecks.

[@johnwilson2338]

Mates, have you heard of and/or used a land anchor, other than the one designed for use in sand? If not, then I can potentially send you blokes some pictures of how to do it. But y'all will need to have a good shovel or several long steel stakes (like those used for concrete forms). If interested give me a ❤.

[@BogDustForBreakfast]

Great Video guys . ive always loved these "beers in the shed" type of videos

[@taeymansom]

My dad and I got stuck in his prado ( we're in an old 4wd action magazine issue) we were that stuck the car stayed there for 2 days, and a set of tides on the mangrove flats near Port headland W.A we broke 2 winch lines on other people cars and ended up having to get daisy-chain- snatched out, best part is it was ripper fishing on the roof at high tide 😂😅

[@jonnewton5929]

Cheers boys, don't reckon I've ever been that stuck. But I'd like to try. Won't know unless you give it a go.

[@spiderbrandt4066]

Good to see ya in 2022

[@local_authority]

Never forget when you had to turn that massive suv with the camper around on the glasshouse mtns after ol mate grenaded his diff, that was impressive with fk all room for error

[@matts_inthetopend6196]

What a out the drowned patrol on Morten Island a few years back that was definitely worth a mention ...

[@dartmoordave]

10 out of 10 for clearing the bush. 1 out of 10 for petty regulations. Top men.

[@jamezxh]

Who would have though you could be fined for removing a wreck that some flog rally bashed into there ?

[@dartmoordave]

@@jamezxh I was commending the boys for clearing the trail but saying the State/Gov should make it more widely known about the paperwork, thats all. Chill out.

[@hayden7299]

@@jamezxh its because insurance owns the burnt/stolen wreck. They have the rights to the wreck making it theft.

[@nathanfarr4493]

That was a pretty epic recovery for the number 1 spot for recent times. But I still think that patrol on Fraser under water was insane.

[@unclesandcrab]

Uncle Sand Crab from California USA keep up the amazing adventures

[@nicolassmith5040]

u just cant get enough of these boys

[@jno5]

The thing that jumps out to me is that it really shows who your mates are….you can take the piss out of them, drink there beers and they will get in the mud and spend hours helping to dig your rig out…..👍🏻🍻

[@tundraluv]

Number 1 should've been when you guys winched that dead vehicle out of the ocean. If memory serves, it took 4 winches all going at the same time to drag that thing out of the surf. Truly epic!

[@perkmaster979]

This list was eh good enough but that vehicle that got beached and bogged down on Fraser i think or some other beach side in which they used like 5 vehicles to winch simultaneously that should've been in the top 5 in my books.

[@dirkhjmarais358]

Hi, I would really like if you can start posting 4K quality videos. I like your channel and watch every episode all the way from South Africa. Keep up the good work.

[@perkmaster979]

And not to mention when they recovered shaunos big sooti off the rock cliff.. Sorry for not knowing the locations i am not from Australia 💙

[@markiusgalfordii9248]

I set up a clean up situation in one of our four-wheel drive trails after we got done cleaning they decided to shut down the whole section. Seriously we did all that work to clean up the whole area from loggers to normal trash bandits and when we got done the next day we're supposed to go out for a long ride out in the trails when we showed up there's a giant gate blocking the trailer off with a sign that says private property no trespassing. You guys are having the time of your life in my state there shutting down trails left and right pretty soon we're not going to have any trails around here where you can ride it's because people keep trashing them and destroying these people's property

[@MothyEmms]

Aussies need to band together and politically campaign to keep Australia open. Also vote LNP/labour/greens out. Therye all as corrupt and controlling as each other 👊🇦🇺

[@ssbartley1]

Love this channel, great work guys!

[@ethanjarrett5700]

I saw these videos for the last recovery, and yeah it was insane. The jack bending as slow as it did was pretty funny. And you guys all celebrated the Mit's 79 coming out harder then everyone would've if you made a sensational drive and made it through a bog hole. Like the Zero Dollar Zook at Tassie with Brenno and that other fella in the patrol. 🤣

[@oscarpaul7831]

That 80series is a beast shawn

[@fewfriesshort5593]

Awesome video fellas! I’m so keen to go and get stuck now!

[@danielhoward8175]

Most stuck well let’s say a recovery mission that didn’t go to plan, got a call at midnight from my younger brother who he was stuck down a track 3km from home after 150mm of rain lol, off course being the older brother I agreed to come and rescue. I got to him no worries at all but on they way out was a different story, after getting him out of the bog hole I had to get him out of the track, then after breaking a cv I had to winch him and my self back to the main road, then I cooked my battery’s because my alternator died. So I had to snatch him the rest of the way in 2wd. Got him back home in the end:) got to love the 100 series Landcruiser

[@oneoffroadonefamily]

Crazy people, nice car and great adventures. 🤟🤟🍻🍻

[@peteoburrito920]

Shawn I really wanna know how often do you replace or repack your wheel bearings on the 80. The axles spend more time under water than above😂

[@johnfitzgerald5158]

I have to imagine axle seals are a problem, too.

I work on underground mining vehicles. The trick is to pump grease in until you can't fit any more in, where there's grease, there isn't water or mud.

[@murraykruger5334]

Lorella Springs episode was a tough slog through all those mud flats. Definitely should have been in the top 5.

[@atdmovements8148]

Really good content and I am learning a lot from you guys as I am building rugs for team challenger 4c4 club Jamaica. Would like to show some of my builds and possibly drive one of your trials one day with our own rigs to see if it could finish a trail

I was down in Albury and got soo bogged in a mudhole that id previously driven but got my line slightly wrong and just sank up to the door sills. Had a 4x4 passer by try snatch me out and snapped my snatcg strap Multiple times. Tried using the big heavy duty ratchet straps the 2500kg rated ones but used 2 and doubled up so it was 10T of strength and snapped 6 of those straps. Dug a heap and still nothing. Ended up having to get a backhoe to lift the front of the ute up and then drag me out as nothing was going to pull me out
