No matter how big a truck you get, there’s always a bigger truck.

So that is a CAT 797, hauling 5 Kenworth tractors and one monster of a Hitachi excavator - you're right that is crazy

there is not 5 Kenworth's in the video, at least 4 of them are western star.

The difference in scale makes my brain itch.

Too COOL!! I can't imagine the forces on that first tow cable! I wouldn't want to be the person driving the first truck!!

That's exactly what I thought of. If that cable snaps that driver is a dead man.

Truck looks like an older generation 793. I've run the newer ones where the stairs are diagonal across the radiator instead of a ladder. And the Hitachi shovel... Never ran a shovel but I sat in the cab of a Hitachi 5500 just like the one in the video for an hour while the operator loaded trucks. Except the one I was in had like an elevator lift, not a stairway like that one. As frustrated as I get it's good to remember I have one of the coolest jobs around.

Mammout best in the business 👍

It's like comparing matchbox cars to the old Tonka toys, I thought the same thing.

Feel sorry for the poor apprentice who has to change the middle tyres on that low loader when they blow...

Still the best way and most cost effective way to move a massive piece of equipment especially inside the Mine site.. the Time alone to get it back to work asap makes it worth all this effort

Check the third pull truck for frame stretch

When it's heavy , It's real HEAVY .

Seems the Mammoet trucks are simply being pulled along by the 797

Ok, who brought their kids tonka truck.

wow 288 tires on trailer alone very impressive

How would you like to check the tire pressure on that trailer?

Not many chains ⛓️ holding everything in place 😂

I bet a Chevy, Ford and Dodge could have pull that machine with Toyota and Nissian behind😂. Cybertruck would of broken down 😂

I remember when that shovel was built, just down the road from the dry. My favourite place coal valley

I am more surprised there are no traction cleats on the Hitachi drive tracks. The pads are almost polished smooth, That would be a scary ride if that thing started to track slide

Omg the size of that dump truck

That 789 isn't even the biggest haul truck. Google CAT 795

It looks like it could pull that shovel without any help.

That's for digging great big freaking holes......😂😂😂😂

Scooping, not digging.

They need to get themselves a piacentini & son panther float, their biggest model has a 1,000,000kg payload capacity, all towed by a single haul truck

HOLY CARP !

When you need the really big guns.

And that's just a 5500. Hitachi makes a model (the 8000) that's even larger.

kind of surprising they don't have a towhall trailer on that site

Those machines rarely move far.

🎉🎉🎉🎉

Carolina squat the first truck 😂😂😂😂

Something with a lot of weight, and horsepower, that's on site, nearby, available for a short time, assisting a load uphill, and that's the craziest thing you've ever seen?

Believe I just said 'omg' about 11 times

Белаз наверно сам бы мог тянуть эту конструкцию

Hello Uncle Cletus: Now that's a HEAVY HAUL!!!
