Rescuing Our FedEx Driver in a Snow Storm!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
While we were on an overland expedition in the Arctic Circle in our Bronco Raptor, our home got hit with an insane snow storm! Chris & Bec were staying busy and warm in the shop....until they got a call from our FedEx driver. Trying to deliver packages, despite the weather conditions, ended up with his FedEx truck seriously stuck in the snow!
So Chris & Bec "borrowed" our 840hp Demon swapped Jeep Wrangler, and went to rescue him and his truck from the snow storm! This video is of the wonderful chaos & neighborly camaraderie that ensued!
Note - The Demon Child was experiencing a rear locker failure, that Chris & Bec did not realize during this recovery (the issue is found and fixed in an upcoming video). And although Kevin & I took a Factor55 kinetic rope with us to the Arctic Circle, we also left one at home. But they were in a hurry & unfortunately didn't grab our Factor55 recovery bag, which had the rope and other equipment inside.

He's an awesome dude & his boss seemed pretty understanding from what we were told. Especially considering that the reason this particular road has not been plowed yet...was because the plow truck had also gone off the road.)

Thanks for the explanation. Mistakes were made but they did rush out to help in the middle of an extreme storm. It was just straight up nuking out there. Wow.

After watching Matt's off-road recovery videos, this rescue video actually reminds me of how good at this that Matt really is.

Definitely the difference between someone who does it every day of his life for a living (we’d certainly hope he’s good at it), and two people who have very little recovery experience. 😊

I'm not even a bit blaming.. I grew up in Alaska way before these recovery ropes. Chains. 3/4" chains! Still a soft pull but on the frame... These trucks the "recovery points" are just asking for damage.
I hope FedEx diver didn’t get in trouble. 😂. Glad you got him out.
OMG….🤣😂🤣 This video had it ALL !!! FedEx in distress, neighbors with JEEPS, passer by gets SUCKED IN the mix !! Lots of laughs, and lots of SNOW !!!❄️☃️ I liked this one a lot !! Great video you two !!!
I've done plenty of those kind,and I've been rescued by kind stranger's like you too,the same way, almost the same predicament 🙏🙏🙏 God bless 🙏🙏🙏
I love seeing neighbors helping neighbors. Sometimes a way to recover vehicles like this is to sharply pull the rear back up on the road and have the stuck vehicle turn the steering wheel down hill ( right in this case). This tends to almost slide the vehicle sideways back on to the road. It causes the front and rear to come back onto the road at the same time. It’s not intuitive and seems backwards but it works.
Just lawn darting things everywhere 😂😂 . Well the county should be happy now they have somewhere to put the snow 😉 !! Great job guys ❤❤💯🤙
You couldn’t have staged this better if you’d had a script! Hilarious. So now the FedEx truck has a better approach angle…nothin’ wrong with that! You guys are great!
Chris and Bec to the rescue! Happy Trails to you all!
First post! Yea! I love Bec and Chris and Brit and Kev, you make my week month and year!!,
AWESOME EVERYONE CAME TOGETHER TO HELP!
This video made my day... 😅 pulling the bumper off was priceless. 😂 Bec and Chris show.
It’s always good when the community comes together and helps each other. That’s the way things should be.
It’s no Matt’s Off-road but yet it’s still entertaining. Haha. Good neighbors are hard to find these days. Good stuff.
I was pushing that Fed Ex Truck as hard as I could from my chair at home lol. Great job
I'm from Minnesota, and watching you try to deal with snow is hilarious.
Oh, wow I'm so envious you got all the toys, scenery, and weather, thanks for sharing kids,
Reminds me of the time a club I belonged to volunteered to help clear debris from the lake beach after a major flood (over 6 ft). We had 8 Jeeps hooked together to pull logs off the beach!
Y'all need Yankum recovery ropes or Matt's Offroad Recovery Rope. Gotta love that kinetic energy

Ya we have a factor 55 kinetic rope. They work great. They just didn’t grab the bag that had the factor 55 rope in it
I liked that as soon as they mentioned MORR that it popped out then.
And yet I didn't see one shovel ! Living on Long island NY I always had my collapsible shovel on board my 4x4's. Whether it was Adirondack snow, downstate snow on Long Island or beach driving on Hither Hills, Fire Island or Montauk Point, ya just gotta have a shovel! Just my two cents worth! Glad they got the guy unstuck! 😊😊🎉
Chris & Bec to the rescue!! no better duo to get it done than these two rockstars.
That Chevy was a nice truck. Nice job. Thanks for sharing.
Shoulda called Matt, or Rory... Good work, 'cept for stopping to th' bumper. TEAM Work for th' WIN!🏆
That was fun to watch. Snow recovered are always exciting. I can't believe how deep the snow was where that Chevy went off. Fed ex driver seems like a good dude!
That was a cool vid. Thanks Bec & Chris 👍
Kids! Great you kids & neighbors rescued the FEDEX truck & driver, but! I'm 73 been through too many snowed stuck vehicles out here on the east coast & many times walloped w/snow! You guys are in where...? Utah! 2 plus feet of snow! Nobody has a snow shovel! Noooo'body has a snowplow or even tire chains...! What's with you kids?! Get a plow mounted on 1 of your beater trucks w/ snow chains & use the winch! There will be a next time! Love you kids but ya need to get your ear bent on this one! As always, be safe & stay warm out there... AMERICA FIRST!
I was stressed watching this video praying that truck would come out. Bec and Chris did awesome!! They didn’t hook up the bumper so NOT their fault!! Way to go LBTEAM!!
I work for a towing company and next time when u hook up hook to the far side of the stuck vehicle and so in this case hook to the right side of the FedEx truck and the left side of the Jeep so ur pulling more up onto the road and it will pull out and back onto the road easier it will still take some pulling but then it’s trying to pull back onto the road instead of pulling down the ditch. Great job guys.
This entire video was amazing 😂😂😂 full of highs and lows

All's well that ends well! And fun to watch too!
Great job guys if u put the shackle on the passenger side of the van it would side that front end over towards the road glad to see u helping out the community
I think I could watch an entire video of Peanut and Jelly playing in the snow!
Wonderful to see the team work and success of the recovery. To paraphrase a line from Galaxy Quest "Never give up, never surrender". Thanks for sharing.
Just had to reminisce 😉❤❤💯🤙
Good team work. All's well that ends well!
You're so awesome guys
Watching this makes me love my kinetic energy rope even more

Love the comradere and the willingness to jump right in. Who gets the insurance bill?! LiteBriteNationPullsABumperBoner!
I love Bec.
That was definitely fun to watch. Good job guys! Keep up the good work 😂😂😂
#TeamKentucky for the win! Shoutout from 270!
Matt really dose make it look easy. I spent a lot of the video wondering when they were going to use their winch or a comb of pulling and winching. It worked out though 👍 Good job Chris and Beck
All in all a fun day.
I’m so happy to look helpful recovery …you’re awesome team work two thumbs up 👍
Watching this makes me anxious. Lol. That’s some deep ass snow
Now that is a fun day!
Chris and Bec rock love their videos and quality of work
One of the best videos ever!
Excellent vid!
Great job guys. Gotta love Utah weather.
The fact that Britt managed to not edit in some circus music is testament to how much she loves y'all. Lol
Best video ever....
FedEx when it’s absolutely positively has to get STUCK overnight
Great job, snow and gravity always make for and interesting recovery. A few things could have been done differently but the most important result is everyone made it home safe.
Good job regardless, y’all are awesome, God Bless 🙏🏼
you two are flipn awesome!!!!
Love me some Lite Brite Garage. Thank you for your time.
We are here live from lite brite nation headquarters here in utah where jeeps help get there own parts delivered. Hey fed ex how bout upfitting some gladiators !
Great video thank you!
So was I the only guy really enjoying the video because I heard the demon child super charger whining!!!!!😂
That was great!! Good job guys!! Super fun video!!
GREAT TEAM WORK
on these recoveries first remove the bumper to get to good tow points noted...🙂. Only thing that might have been a better tow point was the passenger side of the Fed Ex truck to pull it more toward the center of the road. But still a great job helping neighbors, this is one thing I miss is more people willing to help their neighbors.

Yeah, since the truck had zero dedicated recovery points on the front, the bumper is what the FedEx driver chose to hook to. We would have gone to the front axle beam (because we’ve recovered 18-wheelers from sand pits like that before), but we weren’t there. I believe that’s what Chris hooked to once the bumper was out of the way. 🙂
Nice job I'm glad the fed ex driver didn't get in trouble
All in a days work. Great work.
Good stuff guys that looks fun.
That was a trip. ✌🏼
You guys are awesome and you will succeed, nicely done ✔ I think 🤔it would have taken MATT'S OFF ROAD RECOVERY A LITTLE While to get there 😂 Have a Great Day 👍 God Bless America 🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸
You should have hooked to the passenger side to pull the front onto the road
What a nice video! Awesome you guys! From Tokyo.
Yesss! Success!!
Good job guys 🤙
Awesome save 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤
That was great stuff😂! Loved this video. Hopefully the FedEx driver didn’t get in trouble. They should drive 4 wheel drive trucks to deliver in the snow.
A great movie for the Oscar's! Had a little bit of everything! 😂
Freaken Turkeys at the end we’re hilarious 😂
Hell Yeah Cowboy! (my buddy in the black Jeep)
The shutdown sound was funny 😂😂 😂😂😂😂 and we’ll placed.
Love the Buenos dias beanie!
That was intense!
Wow Chris looks like that is wet snow ❄️ judging by the FEDEX trucks rear tire. Good luck pulling him out.
Wowzers! 😳😁😆👍
I love Chris and Bec.... Finally back.... lol
That’s crazy snow! It kind of looks fun! Lol….
Wow…if that didn’t keep getting deeper…good job!
Now you have to do a Buttery Bros Collab!
Did you hear the sad trombones when the bumper pulled off? Bump, bump, bu-bump, whaaa…. I know they don’t make vehicles with good recovery points, but bumpers are no good. Maybe on a car/truck prior to the mid 70’s, but not any more. Remember when you jacked up the vehicle from a slot in the bumper you jack went into?
Those dogs need lift kits if they are going to be in that kind of terrain! 🤣🤣
I love how people are like you should of done this or that. Easy to say when your not in the middle of the shit storm trying to help
I just wanted to watch Peanut running in the snow, success.
Well that was entertaining guy thanks✌😆
Lol FedEx truck looks better with no front bumper😂. Good job guys. Love the videos!!💪✌️
No good deed goes unpunished
