Well said!

Your positivity and community contributions is what keeps a lot of us coming back. Glad to see you're blocking off the jerkwads.

The ironic thing is Casey... You Actually did make a "if you're stranded and broke down " video. I personally have done what you did, but instead of doing the Smart thing and trying to get back when things went sideways...I stayed and continued...which made Everything Worse. Stuck in the mountains, by myself, no one knew Where I was, no way to communicate, and I didn't have a spare tire or fuel. I wound up having to hike several miles in the dark, with a rifle slung, in the winter time, to the first house I came across. Fortunately I did make back to the base I was stationed at (Fairchild)...5am. Friends help me get my rig back the following day

That's one thing about break downs you never know when they are going to happen! Good job getting yourself back to a paved road!

Casey, for the life of me I can not understand why anyone would belittle another person making a video. These are your experiences not ours, we are just the viewers, & everyone has had experiences that didn't go as planned, & hopefully we have learned from our mistakes, and from others like yourself. I and my wife enjoy your content and wish you and yours all the BEST!!

Casey's positive attitude is great 👍

My best friend and i also got stuck in the woods last week. Broken axle shaft took hours to repair. Made a short video of it of my channel. It sucked but we got it fixed and drove it home 75 miles.

Casey, I'm 80, but my mind is still 18! Love your attitude and lifestyle and kindness to others ... so keep your adventures coming! And you ARE good at this!

And that is what I am most impressed with about you, Casey, you have the opportunity to be so judgemental about your clients but never are. We all make mistakes and we all over-estimate our own abilities from time to time, but then learn from those mistakes and we grow and you get the opportunity to learn and get better at what you do! More power to you sir!

Like Ron Pratt tells it. There are many ways to get to 10. Everyone makes mistakes. I've gotten my wrecker stuck a couple times. Things break. People get in over their head before they know it. One curve to many and your done. It happens. Most people feel bad enough just let it be and enjoy the video. Learn things of what not to do or what to do. Keep up the good work Casey.

I’m sixty, just ran across your channel and wanted to say , we’ll done! I’ve done stuff like this in my youth and I wouldn’t have changed a thing about any of my experiences. They are what’s shaped me into who I am and qualifies me to say “ well done” to those who need to hear it. This is good quality content. I sent it to my 26 yr old son , who knows as well these wonderful times that will be so sweet when you young Bucks get to be like us “ wall hangers “ full of advice. Great Job and Thanks again.

Finally somebody who actually knows how to use momentum. I see so many people who drive who don't know that momentum is your friend. 🤦🏻‍♂️

That was almost really bad. Glad you made it out fine. Any adventure you can return from and tell the tale of is a good one in my book.

This is the PERFECT time to do the video while stuck in the middle of nowhere. It's an authentic situation of what could and can happen. You're just afraid of being alone in the woods after dark and bigfoot finding you.

Of course you know this was the result of having those tracks on, which increased the stress on a lot of suspension points. It just figures it would wait 'til you took them off before it broke! Although maybe that's a good thing, given what happened.

Name of the person doing it and just letting us all have some laughs at the expense of the low lifes. Keep up the good work and keep the videos coming. Your doing a great job. Look forward to you heading down and give Matt a hand on his new wreaker.

This is why your channel is one of my favorites. I just never know what's coming. 😂 Seriously, it's just real and fun.

I like what you do and say. Your videos are great and I enjoy your comments. I specially enjoy that you block armchair bullies.

Another typical day in the mountains. Lol! You never know what to expect. Good job being prepared and coping with the situation. Main thing is you will arrive home safe. Equipment can be repaired.👍👍

A really good lesson to learn for a lot of us . Thanks Casey . ( and yes , I learned something , too . )

It's always nice to go an adventure but sometimes Murphy wants to come as well. Stay positive & keep smiling, have a nice day.

Nice work recovering yourself Casey! You need to stop breaking stuff. Leeping the jeep is always fun! Hope your jaw is doing better. Thanks for showing how a positive attitude always improves the situation. I can't believe you shattered that shaft and did not grenade that transfer case.

Awesome 👍😎 video. Not being full-blown mechanic or anything I always learn a lot from you! I love it when I see people out in the woods just having fun trying their best with what they have. Thank you so much Casey for your comments. Once in college I went elk hunting with a friend overnight. We camped by a river the fog rolled in that morning and as luck would have it we ended up taking a young bull elk! When we were trying to break it down to get it into the vehicle my Saw broke so we couldn't break it all down. Finally got myself my buddy all of our camping gear and supplies and the Bull elk in our vehicle. When we pulled into the butcher shop, we got in line with all the big rigs and outfits and the butcher came out and saw our vehicle with the Bull elk looking at him through the front seat passenger window, He whooped and he hollered slapping his leg, "If that ain't the most huntinest vehicle I've ever seen!" It was a 75 manual Toyota Corolla. I could get all five gears but I had to reach up underneath the rib cage to shift. We drove that thing bottomed out for 2 hours back to the butcher shop the Bull elk looking out the window at everyone people were laughing and giving us a thumbs up. My buddy? He was smaller than I was lean and mean and we had a small cubicle behind my seat for him to sit. The Bull road shotgun.

Call Matt's offroad recovery for a pull out

I started carrying an old Yoga mat with me on my outings - just in case I needed to get under my rig like you did. The mat works wonders for keeping the dirt and grime off my clothing (for the most part), and since it rolls up nice and small, it doesn't take up any room or weight that much. Love your outlook when things happen - keep the positive look! (I do have to wonder - how much of this do you tell your wife afterwards?? She has to just shake her head after some of the antics :-) )

2nd the mat. I keep about 2 or 3 of those lego mats with me when helping others or doing work on my vehicles. Not only does it help with the dirt and grime, but it also helps tremendously with sliding around underneath. Sliding around on dirt, rock, uneven/jagged surfaces really hinders. They also help tremendously with doubling them up and having something to kneel on for wheel-end work. Love them for that!

First thing, Love your positive attitude you always have Casey! Second, you addressing the trolls is a mark of a good human being.Third, way to turn the challenge you faced around to something fun to watch.

Give us a video on making the repairs. Always interested in how you approach the repairs and reasoning behind it.

Casey, love your videos! And you are an amazing person, love your attitude! Glad you got out by yourself and safely! Glad you were equipped to take care of yourself. Stay safe and healthy, see you in the next one!

Am happy for your successful self rescue. It was fun "being with you" on your way out.

Casey, the grin on your face when you made it out of the snow and you said that a wasn't good made me laugh. You enjoyed the challenge. And you got home safely. Good for you.

That’s the best part about your channel and I’m sure other people say the same thing. Casey is because you do things your way the way you want whether it’s the right way or the wrong way you know what’s gonna happen you pretty much know what the outcomes gonna be and who gives a shit sorry for the swearword. I’m 71 years old. I’m a female. I love this. You are my favorite channel. I would never give up watching you because you are so much fun. You got a great sense of humor. Personally, I don’t ever want to see you leave this channel ever ever ever ever, you make my day every single day

Casey, love watching how you solve problems and explain what you are doing. My husband also watches your channel and says he is jealous of how you can do things. He is very handy himself but we're not so young anymore and things seem to take more effort.

Awesome driving skills Casey! I could tell because I started getting a little carsick just watching! I always learn something from your videos.

So sorry about Negative Nellies! You are so amazing! Keep doing what you are doing! Real life can not be scripted. Anybody who comments without taking that into account deserves to be blocked. Don't change what you do. Thank you!

HI Casey. Thanks for the videos, I sometimes think I wouldn't have done it that way, but at 70 years I am happy to learn. Like the recent video where you explained why it is important to tighten up the pin in the shackle.

Casey, the man that never made a mistake, never made anything, You're doing good my friend.

I am always amazed at how resourceful you are. You can get droped into about any mess and come out on top. Good job.

Love your videos and all these negative comments about how or what you do, don't let the negative impact your videos. I just love your content.

Thanks for your vids. 😀😃

Love your adventures, Casey! You're the best!

Didn't go well but always an adventure!

It's that old saying "if you can't sat something nice keep your bazoo shut" love your videos and your advice

Awesome commentary! Yes it take a lot less personal energy to be "nice" then a "turkey"! Something you learn if you have a open mind after many years of experience. And really it is about being happy and having a good time even when things are falling apart. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel. All the best Casey.

Thanks for taking us along, and showing us when things don't go as planned as well. Such is life. How're you liking the CO2 cylinder, vs. an air compressor?

Dang, you've got a long bracket with a hydraulic ram pushing on it. That's a lot of leverage to break things! Is there any way to strengthen the bracket so it's stronger than the ram? Loved the escape. It was a nice ride-along until my next wheeling adventure.

@Dave-ei7kk

2 жыл бұрын

I’m afraid that if he strengthens the bracket more the failure will just move to the next weakest point which is the truck frame. He said it was a unibody frame in the video and if it is that’s generally even weaker than a normal truck body on “ladder” frame design. What would make more sense would be to put an over pressure relief bypass valve on the hydraulic circuit feeding the hydraulic cylinder so that the fluid couldn’t build up past a certain pressure without being bypassed around the cylinder to the return port. May require two valves unless someone makes one that is unidirectional.

Great video ! So not a video about how to survive a night ? But an excellent example of why the winch is your friend for self rescue. I've been in SAR in the mountains for 30yrs and I appreciate that you are educating folks on being prepared .

Always a good idea to take a capable buddy along. It was a good self-rescue...been there done that.

As Far As I Can See, This Adventure Was a Great Success Because You Are Safe and Sound ! Really a Good Job !

Mistakes happen. Keeping your head on tight and doing what you know how to do gets you out of trouble. If you can't get going you know you can call for help. Well done. You do have the most. Beautiful office in these United States that I have seen.

Your back home and safe that's all that matters Casey, there are some that would have left there vehicle and walked out. You adapted and drove your self out. Good job!

Casey, nice video with good, useful information that was educational and thus potentially helpful to others. Your winching, showing/explaining the damage to your rig, your "emergency" driving and commentary and at the end your tire air-up setup (the tank...what gas is it?, hose, couplers, valve and guage setup) likely gave others some ideas they can use while you entertained them on your channel...win, win. Keep up the good work and good content brother.
