That was a brilliant piece of driving to get in that predicament 😂hopefully he's learnt his lesson

What a recovery.... Just too many standing in close proximity! All went well, but I would like to know the tension figures on that cable before the 80series tipped back on its wheels... IOW while it was still on its roof and max tension on that winch cable/ synthetic rope. And then no open bonnet and our driver sitting in the line of fire in the cab... Oh boy I get them shivers!

Four wheel driving is not about a full ARB kit and some air lockers. It’s about physics and not being a dck head. You are absolutely correct. Back heavy, no understanding of physics and ruined his family’s holiday therefore qualifies as a DH!

@@wildmushroom4807 yeh mate, I lived in Cooktown for 18 years, did ten OTL trips in my old Landrover. The local guys, (indigenous), have been doing car trips up and down a lot of it for many years in old Holdens and Ford Falcons etc. I'm full of admiration for their skill in achieving where they go in vehicles that are not four wheelers. Us boys get up there in our super "pimped out" four wheelers and can still get into trouble with ease.

It looks like the owner of that truck should have followed the sign on the back and drove around the big hole in the ground. 😂

Oh what a feeling

have seen a very close call on gunshot,, landrover's backend came a long way off the ground before it slowly fell back, personally I wouldnt do it without someone behind connected to a snatch strap to stop that,, anyway great work on the recovery , hope you got it going aafter that
