Bus Burned to a Crisp on Freeway (HOT RECOVERY)
Bus Burned to a Crisp on Freeway (HOT RECOVERY). Poor guy, just bought this bus the day before and it's already burned to a crisp. Not sure why exactly it burned, but thankfully there were no injuries! We received this call after the local police vendors turned it down, and rushed out there by sending Alex in Big Flipper, our 75ton rotator. He was joined by Eddie in our Landoll for the transport.
First step was to park Big Flipper parallel to the bus and set up the rigging for an easy off the side lift. Due to the severity of the fire, Alex decided to use chains instead of straps that can get caught and torn on the jagged pieces. Once everything was rigged, the bus was listed in the air which allowed Eddie to back up right under the bus.
From here, the guys did a quick cleanup to push everything on the side so the sweeper can easily get to it. The rotator portion here was done, while Eddie had to take the bus to a scrap yard where they had a huge forklift to unload it. All in all another quick and easy job complete, keeping CHP and everyone involved happy.

Overloaded Container Almost FLIPS my Rotator!
Переглядів 43 тис.9 годин тому
Overloaded Container Almost FLIPS my Rotator! Could this be the heaviest I've ever lifted off the side? Nope, but definitely up there. I said it was 50,000lb in the video, but these 20' containers are always between 40-50k. In hindsight, this had to be every bit of 60,000lb. I truly regret not using my load cells, but I did not figure it would be this much. The driver stated 30,000lbs over the ...

Box Truck Almost FLIPS Over From Shifted Load! Imagine how much less content I would have if load shifts did not happen? They keep us BUSY! Whether they are overloaded, improperly strapped or caused by unsafe driving, seems like we are correcting these multiple times per week. My opinion is that most loads are not properly secured inside of these trucks. If you have ever stepped inside a traile...

FORE! Semi Driver Gets Stuck on Golf Course. Talk about a hole in one. This driver got himself stuck at a fancy club golf course, so we dispatched Alex in our 75ton rotator to handle the job. Navigating to this spot was not too bad, but the pressure was on as the course staff was trying to rush this guy out. We understand, as this is a distraction to the golfers, but the driver did not make thi...

MESSY Dump-Trailer Rolled Over at the Landfill. Can you smell this video? Poor Alex, handling this call surrounded by garbage. We received this call from a customer to assist in a rollover at the local landfill, and Alex was dispatched in our 75ton rotator, Big Flipper. These end dump trailers are always a pain for a few reasons. One, the piston. They can bend, tweak, leak, etc. You have to com...

Insane Tractor-Trailer Rollover UNDER a Bridge! It's been a good while since we had such an incredibly difficult job like this. We do tons and tons of winchouts, heavy lifts and "basic" rollovers that we make look like childs play. But this job humbled us and reminded us that you can't use brute strength to complete every job. For starters, it was under a bridge. Not just partially, but both tr...

EXTREME offroad recovery for crashed Suzuki. First of all, when do you ever see a Suzuki vehicle on the road in the US anymore? This poor fella went full send over our famous spot in Angeles Forest Highway. Distance was about 250', all gas no breaks. Alex was dispatched in our 75ton rotator, Big Flipper. Vicente joined in our flatbed to transport the car after. Alex has taken over the car fishi...
Dump Truck Stuck in Muddy Disaster!

Dump Truck Stuck in Muddy Disaster! Alex is back with another "easy" winch job for Big Flipper, our 75ton rotator. Just as some recent jobs, Alex decided to use the equalizing sling method using our famous Bailey's equalizing sling and a 15ton snatch block. The deep mud was no match for the brute strength of Big Flipper. This method is by far the best method for these jobs. A lot of people ask ...

Lifting 64,000lbs at the airport (full 360 8k)! It's been a while since I did a full 360 video, but with the X4 I'm hoping that it will look much better than we I had the GoPro MAX. The job was a standard cargo loader lift, something we do almost every week. I figured the bright environment would be a good test for the Insta360 X4, and if you guys like it I can continue to do more. I did this j...

How I charged $15,000 to move these rocks (part 1). Safe to say you guys watching my videos have been spoiled this year with awesome content. I'm not sure if it's the universe challenging us, or our reach just being more known and getting more calls. But it seems every month we outdo ourselves in terms of rotator work with some crazy custom jobs. This one, I feel, takes the cake. We were recomm...

Not working at night, but rather in Higher traffic? Nerver heard something like that before. You create more congestion and more following accodents that way. Plus those Bolts were on the Road the entire night. How can that be safe at all? Just shut that hoghway down in the Night. No congestions beacause almost no traffic…

As a rotator operator for close to 10 years in New England myself, I can say, its nice to have a call every once in a while that still gets all the juices flowing! Excellent job that most operators would have waited for a second truck. You knew your truck and what it was capable of.
Yes sir! And how interesting, what kind of rotators do you have out there? And how is work, busy? Curious to see if you guys get a lot of rollovers and container work as well
Watching you float the drivers side made my ahole pucker
7:38 Why didn't you lot simply reposition the container BACK until it was centralised over the lead axle above the rear end of the trailer, so that there wasn't anywhere near as much of a fulcrum twist excerted onto the frame of the trailer, as that would have allowed the gooseneck area to be "lifted" enough to allow the truck operator, to take the container away at the same time as "moving" his now buggah'ed trailer, slowly - to leave it at a secure yard where they could have simply transhipped it onto a better "normal deck" shorter container trailer. All it would have meant - was for the chains to be loosened enough to "reposition" the container towards the rear of the trailer, to "dump" the load weight, over the rear axles, and NOT so far forward as they did, which was the sole reason the gooseneck bent.
Are you special or just acting dumb? And are you blind and deaf? If so how are you watching this video?
by 20:23 I have so much "motion sickness" from your stupid "Gymbol" mounted head cam, swivelling around as if a cork in a heavy swell away out in the middle of the ocean, that I'm giving up watching this. So with THAT forever moving camera view, I won't be watching any more of your "recovery videos".. Sorry, but I value my right to have "safe viewings" without developing motion sickness, just "watching a video" .. to many others to watch to have to endure this weird stomach churning stuff.
Who cares loser? You aren't important

Firstly, congratulations on your second child. Secondly, I can’t believe people ask about money and you have to say anything. If they where so interested they’d use google…
Was that timber in the front fender?
He Should not have had it loaded at the front of the trailer of corse that much is going to bend the gooseneck of the trailer. It should have loaded just over the top of the first axel onto trailer. Totally the drivers & loaders fault .
Followed two trucks out of cali yrs ago,, both were big Pete's with big cats and I couldn't keep up on the grade and when I got yo the bottom, both were in the ditch, amongst the wreckage I saw the crank with pistons/rods still on it layin to one side,, crazy!, I still can't believe it after 40+ yrs
great teamwork with this difficult job
Bro are you guys hiring?
That’s a bus from Akron, Ohio
? You guys drop the driveline on those hinos?
Congratulations
What’s up Josh and Alex. Keep up the good work. One request, can you show the date and time of each video if possible.
Wat motor and trans you got in flippa?
What manufacturer makes the 360 camera.
Is they no scales around that area cause im guessing he was way over on the drives
Sweet trucks
ARE YOU KIDDING ME. ? WHY ??
Congratulations!
Alex knows his s***. Eyeballs wheel or sticks a knuckle in, grabs proper chain. But everybody at the scene is stressed out, Alex keeps 'em all calm. At the end, they all are relieved- except guy with the bill. :>)
wow. efficient design.
Shoulda charged 20K and gave every worker a $1000 bonus for that ridiculousness.
A crane company would have cost 3-4x that for the machine and crew, let alone the tide coming in.
Oh my Gosh! We just bought a 2013 Caterpillar 314 and it would break my heart if this happened! I made a couple of videos of it on our channel. ❤️
40 ft container a tad big for just that car
I’m shocked that CHP didn’t close the first lane on the other side of the freeway when they were loading the bus onto the trailer. If that bus tipped over while loading, it could have easily landed into oncoming traffic.
Lmfao are you serious? I get being safety Sally and all that but come on. With that logic why not shut the entire freeway down both sides
Im a hat person through and through and I'd go with the Richardson trucker. Its a superior hat, its no New Era but its def a nice hat.
Hulk performed the job and did Flawlessly. Good job Josh
can we all take a minute to appreciate the art on those train cars... like dont get me wrong vandalism is bad but I wish train company's would be willing to set some cars aside to be painted by street guys (i know there's more to it than that but still)
Great job
What was the working load limit to the 3/8 chains Alex put through the wheels. Just curious, look like an awesometool.
Why don’t y’all service West Valley?
You need a yard, trucks and crew located in the CHP are you apply for. We don't have a yard over there
ya know... dumb blonde jokes seriously affect the mental health and stability of a significant portion of our society. do you realize how many folks yearn for the blonde bottle dye? you joke about a serious mater...
So nice😮
Love your work quick and fast
Love the videos, and all the angles an work you all do Thing that caught me on this one, is the hard hat wedged in there! Would be great for OSHA, Hard Hats survive even the worst of accidents! lol You guys are great! Keep the recoveries coming!
So the new version of hulk you have coming it won’t have a underlift if it’s got the same outrigger set up as big flipper?
whoever built the road forgot to add the shoulder
Will Hulk 2.0 come with the HHU underlift or will it be like Big Flipper and have no underlift?
Is your new 1150 going to be a “R” model? Will it have an under reach or be like Big Flipper.
GET THE CASH ! Another job well done!
Operators seem like addicts
The train derailed ????
Congrats on new addition to your family !
Worst call in the world next to a burned up carbon fiber car.
Josh you're such a Salesman constantly building up how good your trucks are LOL
Are they not tho?
