I’m proud to say I was one of them! 👍 I felt a little silly when friends and family asked why I was driving by myself all the way to southern Utah from Seattle. Now I don’t feel silly at all. Thank you so much to all the participants. You all were great at the Meet and Greet events.

Ben and Hunter are such an integral part of Fab Rats, it wouldn't be the same without their banter and antics!

I've watched way too many of the OWG videos and I'd just like to say the Fab Rats crew produces the most enjoyable and heartwarming accounts. The video and banter from Hunter is stellar and the editing is a work of art. Yes. A special Man ack should go to Hunter for pulling a knife from his pocket first when someone utters; "We need a knife. Anyone got one?" I'd nominate your video team for a KZread award.

The smile on Ben's face is epic i cant imagine how sore he was the next day but You sir get Nothing but respect! The memories y'all is made during this event will be shared for generations to come. So happy for All of you.

I have to say, everyone involved with producing this epic display of insanity are my kind of people: JUST PLAIN NUTS!! I've watched every KZread video and every one makes me laugh to tears. I'm sad that I couldn't be there BUT, if I'm physically able next year, I WILL be there. Congrats and a huge THANK YOU! P.S.: My condolences and prayers for the Robert Blake family.

All the different perspectives make this event so awesome. Merlin and Rory are all serious, meanwhile Paul is just sending it lol. So awesome

Ben had way too much happy juice! What a trooper, sure hope he didn't feel all beat up the next day.

Thanks for allowing us into your daily life's. The entertainment you provide is second to none. Ben and Hunter have been an amazing addition to the entertainment you provided. My hats off to all of you for building such an amazing machine.

Thanks for you all getting as much as you did on video. Glad Ben is doing fine now after that roll-over.

Just another huge ovation for Ben. Your brother is a gem, Paul, but you know it.

Amazing that your wrecker, having been totally rebuilt and untested, made it through without any major breakage, It is a testament to the mechanical and fabrication ability of Paul and Ben and everyone else involved in it build. Ben should have gotten an award for stunt work in the roll over. Great job!

Rick Meade------Their cousin , Merlon Johnson , of Merlin`s Old School Garage , based in Lake Havasu , Arizona , actually built the motor for them . However , you are right . They did a fabulous job in putting together that rig , and prospering , despite very little practice and break in time . Look at the other competitors . Matt Wetzel was operating on day #2 with no reverse . Merlon Johnson blew out his transfer case on day #1 and worked until 2:30 in the morning to get ready for day #2. (Alan Zitting got him a replacement part .) Something happened to Eric Huttner`s truck , although I forget what it was .

“At that moment Hunter knew he was a real man” 😂

I knew the Wrecker Games were going to be something special and all the teams did not disappoint. So cool to meet you folks, shake your hand, and get to see the rigs up close. Paul's driving and Ben's piloting definitely has a unique flair on the edge of control. You guys made me smile a lot. 😁 Can't wait until next year.

You really put on a show. Ben deserves an award for good sportsmanship and comedic relief.

You got yourself a wrecker there. It was great seeing all that work go to work. A nice tribute to your dad.

I’m with Paul just watching my face hurts from laughing and smiling ear to ear thanks to all of you

Ben’s face says it all, pure joy, having the time of his life!

I'm surprised nobody said anything but Rory having on bright white sneakers the whole time! That alone should have earned him a hundred points!

Michelle you are surrounded by the best family and extended family ever! Oh and Paul and Ben should be in entertaining business beyond KZread they are happy at making others smile. Thanks to all of you for what you do 👍

Thanx for giving us a great time to watch. I loved Ben stirring the car when the front wheels were off the ground. Now that's getting caught in the moment. Love you all.

I have to say it again I enjoyed every day of the event I had so much fun I was so glad to be able to meet all of you.

❤ seeing Ben roll over like that reminding me when I wrecked my first car. I rolled it over and it set back up on its Wheels across the ditch. I was 16 years old at the time. I'm 74 now for a long time I could still see the windshield cracking. Love you guys and God bless. Larry 😊

Hunter better watch out for his job Gracie did a amazing job with the interviews at the show!!!

Aw the knife moment ... Hunter ... we're so proud !

What a wild and crazy time! Paul yells "hang on Ben" and then he guns it! Ben got folded, spindled and nearly mutilated in that roll over; talk about going through the spin cycle! Great job by the whole Fab Rats crew.

We were there in hopes that we could physical, Really appreciate 🙏 appreciate all the camera action Really impressed by Paul And Ben's Building skills, Along with Chad's Fab And every one that supports Fab Rats Have a Great Day 👍 God Bless America 🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸

You couldn't ask for a better mor exciting culmination of a vehicle build than this and to have nothing happen other than a cosmetic ding is something to be proud of as a builder. Well done fabrats crew you did a amazing job. Ps . My sincere condolences to the Blake family and the morr family for their loss.

Hunter pulling out his knife lmao, you literally called him out but in a great way! Atta boy Hunter!

Thank you everyone the organisers, the participants and the crowd it was a fabulous weekend wish we could have been there we do not have anything remotely like this in New Zealand

I appreciate how the bumper makes the wrecker look like it has a nose. I also appreciate the horn. It’s a good thing Paul was competing or he would have messed with Matt the whole time.

You know this put a big old grin on dad's face up in heaven. He must be so proud of Paul. Well done Fab Rats

You have a personal connection with your fans. They get to feel like part of the action. They, rightly, feel responsible for the success of events like the wrecker games. I think that is why they take the responsibility to make sure the course is left clean. This is not just a passive entertainment, but rather a group celebration.

Y'all put on an amazing show ! I do believe I " told ya so , Merlin took the overall win " . Great job by everyone at the games 👍

It has been a wonderful journey watching the rebuild of grandpa Sherms tow truck. It is truly a awesome capable offroad tow truck now. Thank you for taking us along.

The best spectator event I have ever seen. The contestants and the crowd were great. Thanks Matt for creating the games and to all who participated. Everyone including the crowd were winners.

Seriously an awesome event with awesome competitors. You and Merlin were my favorites to watch. The truck, untested, did freakin amazing. Granda Pa Sherm would be proud. I love that you put that on the KC lights. I'm sure he was looking down smiling, and probably shaking his head watching Ben roll over on the trail lol. I'm looking forward to seeing more videos with the truck 🤘

Don’t let grandma Lolly watch this or Paul is going to be in big trouble for abusing his brother Ben like that. Can’t believe Ben smiling thru all of this. Looked like too much fun and some untested equipment performing flawlessly , amazing!

love the Joy in Ben''s voice when he laughed. Good stuff. Looks like much fun was had by all.

You were all winners for me This was far more exciting than the 4 wheel mud plug that we usually get here in NZ I would love to see this take off all over the world So well done every one and the organisers of the event too.

😂 Ben knows what the ball in a can of spray paint feels like.. 💪🏼

Wonder if, after going through the wrecker games, Paul has come up with any ideas for modifications/changes that he would make to the Rat Rod Wrecker. And having headsets so the tow rig and the vehicle being towed can communicate with each other would be a big plus. Definitely felt a little bad for the people riding in the cars, Ben, Lizzie, Shawn, not sure the other two names, they all took a helluva ride.

finally Watched the build from start to finish. love the family thing Michelle has the singing voice of an angel

Is Ben even talking to Paul anymore? Wow, what abuse! Great times that only brothers and best friends can share. And yes, your dad is proud of you. Y’all rebuilt the truck in an amazing way. Incredible. You get the seat time Rory has and you will be his equal in many ways. Just can’t believe the smiles on your faces……..and one thing in common in all of you is the genuine appreciation for us. Thank you.

This has been so much fun watching the build and then watching the truck perform! Very impressive!!! 'Side's that, it's been a great show!

I think Paul and Ben's ride was the most entertaining. Smiles the whole time 🙂

I even met another Landon. A super nice young man from Tennessee. He hiked from the bottom to the top of trail and back down on trash day. I gave Mike and his Wife Betsy, from Maine, a ride to the top and they hike down searching for trash. People came from all across the Nation. Good people attract good people. That's you Fab Rats.

Love your channel, never miss an episode since I found you guys. Nothing but good clean fun, and helping folks in need.

Paul and crew, this has been a blast to watch the build of the wrecker and to see its debut. Can’t wait to see you and Ben work the bugs out and put the finishing touches on it. Hope you guys get together and do more of these events together. KZread creators have become my best media entertainment by far.

I am very impressed with the way the wrecker worked. All that hard work paid off. "All winners" !

"there is something wrong with the blood line" Funniest line. What a fantastic show. Congratulations to you all.
