Terrible newbie winching 'skills'. How many times did they need a snap.

The steel winch rope that went first, they were lucky it snapped towards the stranded, and not the winch.

Strange mud though :/ extremely water logged??

I thought the idea with a kinetic rope was to attach it both ends, back up as close as you can, close the hatches down and clear the crew away, then simply drive off at high speed.

Either you recover the stuck vehicle, or the towbar clangs off the armour at the back of your little tank. :whistle:


When I used to go P&P there was always someone with a ferret for recovery: where are they all now?

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)

This did the rounds quite a bit a while back on a few forums. I may have it wrong but iirc it was a quarry that locals used illegally.

Natural selection must have been having a day off that day! They had plenty of opportunity to seriously injure themselves or others. I've been with people that have been just as stuck and all it took was 2xtrucks and 2x snatch blocks. No fuss no drama.

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!

Correct !
Too many muppets out there. And have seen it a few times.
One guy ended up in hospital due to the tree that he was snatch blocking off
Was shit and it fell and hit him on the head, was nasty.
