DAVE PETTITT (NARRATOR): This time on Heavy Rescue, 401...

Everyone's thinking it's all back to business and back to normal.

Well, it's not.

A heavy storm... (SIREN WAILS)

Let's just kick this all off the highway here.

..gets Kerry kicking.

It's not gonna be an easy one, for sure.

A tight job...

Let's do this thing.

..tests a tight team...

Hold on. Whoa! Whoa!

..and a load of coils...

It's total carnage.

..ties up the Campbell crew.

Keep pulling! I am!

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

A brutal winter front is moving across

the eastern edge of Ontario...

..heading straight into the nation's biggest city

and busiest roads.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

Oh, boy.

A whole tonne of vehicles in ditches,

about a 100 crashes already in the last 24 hours or so.

Sergeant Kerry Schmidt is fighting through a busy morning.

Drivers just going too fast for conditions.

Anyone who doesn't actually have to be out on the roads,

wait until the system has passed,

wait until all the highways have been ploughed clear,

and then, you know,

make your way out to where you need to go.

On the other side of the city,

traffic is bottlenecking on the QEW in Burlington.

A sudden jack-knife has caused a multiple chain-reaction crash

and a close call for one member of the OPP.

Harry, how are we doing there, fella?

Constable Kevin Westhead is working to manage the scene

before the distraction can lead to another crash.

A tractor-trailer suddenly jack-knifed,

which caused one vehicle to veer across,

narrowly missing being crushed by the commercial motor vehicle,

and then the cruiser subsequently also striking the tractor-trailer.

What are we looking at for re-opening?

What do you think? Uh, maybe... half hour?

With these type of collisions,

it's inevitable that people, they want to have a peek,

and this can often lead to secondary collisions.

Can I get you to watch and make sure everything's OK?

We get the road open as quickly as possible.

(THEME MUSIC)

I'm going to pull this away,

and then I'm going to get him to back under

and get the trailer straightened out and whatnot.

OK.

As two tow companies work to clear the scene,

the end is in sight...

OK, put it in park.

Miserable weather out here.

Just got to strap down one more thing,

and I'm outta here.

There she goes!

..but even as the storm starts to fade,

its effects will linger on the road.

On snow days like this,

there are going to be some more significant collisions.

I'm sure we'll be dealing with lots more today.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

The storm is finished, the road's been ploughed,

everyone's thinking it's all back to business,

back to normal, well, it's not.

25mi east up on the 401,

Kerry is rolling up to another scene.

We're just heading over now to a multi-vehicle collision,

Highway 401 eastbound in the express lanes at Eglington.

We've got at least three transport trucks involved...

and this is where traffic suddenly comes to a grinding halt.

Massive congestion on the 401 eastbound all the way

to Dixie Road right south of Pearson Airport.

Oh, there they are.

It's a huge mess.

The one truck up there smashed into the back of this Landoll,

and then that truck went into the back of the other truck.

Fortunately, no injuries, but really preventable.

The roads are slippery.

We just all need to be able to drive our vehicle

in a manner that allows us to stop and not get caught in a position

where we don't have an escape.

While the crew works to quickly clear the road...

Looks like they are getting ready to roll out of here.

..Kerry spots a new hazard.

As they pull the vehicle away,

there's debris underneath the vehicle

that they weren't able to assess.

Are they sweeping that up?

No, they think they got to come back.

Let's just clean it up ourselves.

I just grabbed some of the debris that was there...

Let's just kick this all off the highway here.

Not ideal, but the fortunate thing is we do have the MTO behind us

as blocker trucks that are protecting the area.

Let's just clear it.

We got that thrown off on the shoulder.

That'll get picked up later on, but in the meantime,

we need to get these highways open.

We got traffic moving now,

so, that area should be relieved from its pressure pretty soon.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

125mi west,

the 401 in London has been spared the effects of the eastern storm...

..but on the east side of the city,

traffic is facing a major slowdown.

We'll put a two-part here... Two-part here...

..and just a single to the front.

..and it's up to the Ross Services crew

to get the road back open.

Want to get a couple drag lines on it,

see if I can hold it?

Mike Ross and Austin Hutchinson have been waiting and planning.

We've been on hold for the last couple hours here.

The vacuum truck collided with a car in the intersection.

The car's driver did not survive.

Anytime you're at an accident like this,

you feel bad.

Your heart goes out to the family,

and all the people that are affected.

Behind the dip tank?

Yeah, just take it there, and I'll come and give you a hand.

..and for rookie crew member Thomas Finch,

it's a first-time experience.

OK, try to pull it, Finch.

My whole thing is going through my head is How?

How's the families?

How'd this happen?

How is their first responders?

Someone has lost a loved one,

and it's just not something that you really want to be doing every day.

Run that through the ratchet,

and then you're gonna hook hook-to-hook and pull 'er tight.

OK.

The terrain and the need to preserve evidence

will make a tough job even tougher.

You want to use that boom line at all?

Yeah, yeah, I do. This one?

OK, what do you think?

I think the turret on the other side,

we might be able to grab.

The ditch that we're dealing here with here is a pretty steep ditch.

We're trying to be as gentle as possible and to not disturb

as much as we can just so that the police can continue

with their investigation.

It's that fuel tank on the floor ground

we just gotta watch.

They need to keep it intact as they pull the truck upright.

We're going to have to be pretty gentle with it just

to make sure we don't make a bigger mess here.

I'm gonna snug up these lines... OK.

..so just watch yourself for a minute.

I'm going to try to slide the front end of this truck

over a little bit closer to the shoulder of the road,

and that way, when it does come over,

it's a little bit further up,

and hopefully the fuel tank will clear the ditch.

I'm just snuggling up here.

But working on this narrow road, they risk running out of space.

The only thing is whether or not that bumper's

gonna land on your leg.

Do you think it... think it's going to hit?

It's gonna be damn close to your truck, man.

You got like, 2ft.

It's just more or less just this part here.

There's not going to be a whole lot of room here.

Um, it's going to be a tight squeeze when we bring this thing over.

I don't know.

I'm not sure.

Vac trucks are real heavy.

We don't know what's in the back of them,

if they're loaded or empty, till you get a little feel of it.

Alright, well, we'll see how it likes it.

I'm going to stand over...

I'm going to stand over on this side.

Risky call.

We're going to be pretty tight to our trucks

when we bring this thing over.

It's definitely intimidating.

OK, Finchy.

Whoa, whoa.

Whoa!

Whoa, whoa!

At a narrow intersection in London...

Whoa!

It's just water coming out of the tank.

The pipe's split off a bit there.

..Mike and Austin's upright is running out of room...

We're going to be pretty tight to our trucks

when we bring this thing over.

It's definitely intimidating.

Touchdown!

That went quite nicely.

Quite nicely.

It was close. (LAUGHS)

It was close.

..and the front of the vacuum truck is still down in the ditch.

Got to pull ahead a little bit. Yeah, yeah.

Swing the front end up on the road, I think.

Leave your stick out there.

You're going to need it. Yeah.

We can't just hook onto the back of it and pull it up,

'cause we've got our fuel tanks that are gonna

hit the ground and will rupture.

Pull some more cable there, Finch.

So, they'll need to raise it clear of the ground.

Oh, we might be alright.

Austin will lift the front of the truck up and over the road,

then set it down directly onto his rotator's underlift.

OK...

Let's give 'er a whirl here, boys.

It's a precision move.

Do this side a little bit, too, Austin.

We're trying to keep this thing as low as possible

just so that we're not hovering 10-20ft above the ditch,

but we need to be high enough that we're going to clear

the ditch with the fuel tank.

Try and keep the front end a little lower, OK?

Yep.

That way, if anything does go wrong,

we're not picking ourself up out of the ditch.

Start getting it in, that's high enough.

Boom up and in.

Phase one is complete.

Get 'er down some, get 'er down.

Now, they need to wrangle the truck onto the underlift

in very tight quarters.

There's so much more to learn in this industry,

in heavy recovery.

Right here, Finch.

Right here, right here.

Oh, right in here? Sorry, buddy.

Tonight, Thomas will get an up-close view

of a tough manoeuvre...

I'm determined and focused on getting into heavy recovery.

It's always been a dream of mine since I've been six years old.

Just make sure I don't run over that chock,

OK, as the truck twists.

Just keep an eye on it. On the back one?

Yeah.

..and hard work is a family tradition.

This farm has been around for 177 years.

I am the sixth generation born and raised on the farm.

The farm work has really formed me

into the individual I am now that, if there's a job to do,

we get the job done,

and we don't stop until we get it done.

Some days I miss working on the farm,

but in the tow industry, it's like the farm.

Something different every day.

He's eager to learn.

Not everybody gets these kind of opportunities

to come out and see this kind of a job,

so, it's a good experience for him.

Alright, get in there, Thomas, so I can see what's going on.

..and that experience includes running the vac truck's brakes

while Austin wrestles the truck into position.

Take the brakes off,

and just get ready to use the foot pedal if you need to, OK?

Yep.

We'll take the brakes off,

and the front end will come around a lot nicer for us.

Release the brakes!

It definitely takes a little bit of finesse

and skill to be able to land something like that.

There it goes. There it goes.

Swing 'er that way some more...

Finch, turn the steering wheel to the right!

Nope. Won't turn?

No turning. OK, hang on.

Just sit tight.

I might be able to get it from there, let's see.

Just swing it a little bit more.

Just take this one a little bit, and let that one down.

We're close.

Just slide the receiver in, and I'll tilt up.

Set it right on your forks.

Out.

Bingo!

You got 'er.

Lovely. That went really well.

It's nice when you're able to set it right on your wheel lift.

Austin sets it right on top of the underreach,

right where it needs to be to tow it away from the scene.

I'm happy, boys. Can't complain one bit.

That just shows his years of experience,

and his abilities and skills.

You can back up and get ready to go get yours, OK?

While the job started in tragedy, it ends... with inspiration.

I'm learning from some of the best guys in the industry,

and I want to learn everything I can.

Alright, boys.

Time to go.

Tied down, we're heading on home.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

The next morning, 310mi east...

..roads are clear of snow,

but the westbound 401 is empty.

All traffic approaching Johnstown is detouring off the highway.

The semi was hauling a load of copper coils

when another vehicle cut it off.

The semi swerved and flipped.

Then a second truck drove right through it.

Get it cleaned up as fast as we can.

Now, John Campbell is staring down a heavy clean-up job.

We got a transport on its side, it's total carnage.

There's nothing left of the trailer.

There's copper all over the place.

The bottom of the trailer was upside-down

with nobody on it anymore.

It exploded, just disintegrated, turned into shrapnel.

So, as you can see there's not much left of it.

It looked like a bunch of spaghetti.

So, between my tow trucks and the backhoe,

I got two floats here.

We should be out of here in a couple of hours

if all goes well.

The truck is in pretty bad shape, as you can see,

so, we're basically just gonna flip the truck back over on its wheels,

and tow the truck away.

Soon as they get the dump truck out of the way,

we're gonna back Johnny's truck up to it,

and float 'er down.

John's son Johnny Marsh will remove the tractor...

He's backing the rig up here.

Golden!

Oh, it's gonna be a fun one!

..and with five miles of highway shut down,

he'll have to move fast.

I'm going to put this in free-wheel,

get a cable and snatch block to the bottom of the truck,

and then hook that tractor and flip 'er back over,

and get it the hell out of here.

Just hook it on the leaf spring there, Dad.

Yeah, sounds good.

Just so it's out of the way. OK.

OK, I'm gonna pull ahead and take up the slack.

Yeah, I'll tell you when to stop.

Been working with him almost 15 years now,

and it's got its ups and downs.

OK!

Sometimes hard to separate work from family,

but we figure out how to do it for the most part.

Here we go!

Everybody clear?

Go ahead.

Johnny needs the wheels to bite and pivot the truck upright...

but the wheels aren't biting.

Keep at it.

Come on down.

Highway has already been closed for a few hours.

The secondary roads are overflowing with traffic.

Yes, sir!

How's it going? Where are we at?

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

Westbound traffic on the 401 is still crawling

toward the detour route...

Keep at it.

Come on down!

..and the overturned tractor is staying firmly overturned.

How's it going? Where are we at?

We're looking at about an hour.

You're always worried that because of this closure,

more accidents could occur,

and it's also the life blood of the country

is getting the highway going again, in a safe way.

OK!

Well, they want it open as quick as they can, obviously.

We'll do our best, and get out of here as soon as we can.

But John Campbell and crew can't get the tires to grab the pavement.

When they're on the asphalt, it's pretty slippery.

Sometimes they don't want to flip.

Hold up, John. You gotta put one on the back, son.

Just to give it a little extra.

It had nothing to really grip onto.

It just wanted to steer around to face my truck

instead of actually rolling over.

You want a chain?

Nope just a hook.

So, with pressure mounting,

they're betting on more pulling power

on the back end...

OK, we're hooked. OK.

..to help wrench the truck upright.

Everybody clear?

Yep! Alright, pull 'er over!

Little more on this one!

You're good. Keep going.

Keep 'er going!

I'm going!

Look at that. It's caught up on the front axle.

It's twisted that bad. Keep pulling!

I am!

Here it comes.

Perfect!

Yeehaw.

She's a messy one, that's for sure.

I'll be happy to get it off the highway and open it up

for everyone again.

Just put your forks, run your chains through there,

one on each side, pick 'er.

I'm going up!

There we go.

It's a beautiful thing.

Alright, let's get this show on the road,

get the (BLEEP) out of here, and do the trailer next.

Johnny will haul the tractor to the shop...

and retrieve a float truck for the coils.

Let's go!

So, his father turns to the only other heavy equipment on scene.

So, I have a plan.

I want to pull up beside the trailer,

grab the back of it.

If you could bring this over, hook the front of the trailer,

just so it doesn't go back down into the ditch.

It's probably not what some of the other guys do.

Hey, Johnny...

Need more?

A lot of people would have waited for another heavy to come.

The idea is get the highway open safely

as quick as you can.

We're all set, and we're ready to go!

The trailer deck is out of the ditch...

Perfect.

..but until Johnny can clear it off the road,

the westbound highway stays closed.

I mean, you could spend hours rigging.

We gotta get this highway open.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

155mi west...

..one driver has taken a sudden detour

off the 401 in Newtonville.

A tanker loaded with 80,000 pounds of cement powder

has ploughed hard into the trees.

Yeah, there's a major amount of damage here.

And a major amount of work for B and G's Bill Wright.

We've got flat tires, bent axles,

we're into a tree at the nose here.

It's not going to be an easy one, for sure.

This thing is so far down through the ditch.

We've got all kinds of elements against us.

The soft snow, we've got missing tires...

Let's find this ditch.

Right there.

It starts dropping right here.

For Russ Kroon,

the biggest worry is the combination of cargo

and the 200ft trip to the highway.

It's a cement dust powder.

If we happen to pull the trailer or the truck the wrong way

and rip it on a stump,

the clean-up itself is going to be just phenomenal.

That's gonna be a very heavy pull.

So, Bill wants to avoid risking the long pull

and head the other way,

to a much closer side road.

Lo and behold, we've got a driveway that lines up with us pretty good.

Now, it's small, but I think maybe that might be the answer here.

Hey, Jerry?

Yeah, right here.

..and today, without his sons on scene,

Bill is relying on a largely seasoned crew.

We're all in our 50s, and, you know,

the young guys are off doing their thing,

and, you know, your hands, and your back, and your feet,

they just aren't what they were when you were 30.

We can just back the rotator in right there...

Right there as far as we can.

..and we can run a single line out to the front end of that.

Yeah.

I'm going to be putting a lot of skills to the test today,

stuff that I've learned over the last 100 years.

The first priority is to get the truck off the tree,

and we're going to start pulling and seeing how everything holds up.

We gotta cut that fence somewhere over here.

See if we can get that all off already.

That limb there, we got to take off.

We want to try to get this wrapped up before dark.

We got the equipment rolling,

we're going to be going at it as hard as we can

before the sun goes down and the cold temperatures roll in.

I need some slack here.

It's going to be tough.

OK.

Stand clear!

Watch that tree over there, Doug.

It's quite a pull to get that off the tree.

Whoa, Russ!

It's separating the frame rails.

I think it's pulling the frame rails apart.

Well, we can't get it off the tree.

We're pulling the frame apart.

If we can't get this truck off this tree,

we got a real problem on our hands.

I think we're pulling it into the tree is the problem.

Too much forward pull here.

We want to go that way.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

On the 401 east of Brockville...

..a 5-mile stretch has been empty for over three hours

while traffic funnels off the highway.

The road can't reopen until John Campbell

removes the remains of the trailer,

with just a single wrecker.

I'm gonna spin around, stick my boom way out,

and pick this puppy up...

and then Lawrence will pick the front,

and he'll back under it with a float,

and that's our plan.

John will lift one end of the trailer

while a one-ton tow truck and the excavator lift the other,

allowing a flat deck to slide underneath.

The plan will eliminate the need to wait for a second wrecker.

Good!

Down... back that way a bit.

..but the excavator isn't designed for this kind of work.

There's a rail there you got a hold of.

You want me to put a chain on it, too?

A lot of people would have waited for another heavy to come.

Sometimes you push your trucks maybe a little farther than you'd like to,

but you gotta do what you gotta do sometimes.

Good!

OK, you guys try!

Start backing that float under there.

You gotta go up.

Whoa...

Good!

OK, good!

We got 'er. She's perfect.

Awesome. Awesome, awesome.

We're just going to bear trap it down to the trailer,

get the coils cleaned up, and we're on our way home.

And right on cue,

Johnny arrives with the truck for the coils.

Marsh is already looking at me. He knows.

Every once in a while, that mastermind

of his does come through,

and hopefully it will rub off on me someday.

OK, hold it there!

My dad's taught me, do what we can with what we have,

whether it be a small truck, a service truck, or a flatbed,

just do what we can to get everything done

to get the highways opened up again.

Things went pretty smooth, all in all.

It was good. The guys worked hard.

We're done, we're going home.

Strap that down, let's get it out of here!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

There's another one done.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Pretty solid, eh?

Back off the 401 in Newtonville...

Jerry, what about just pushing it forward

to give Doug room for the saw?

..Bill and his veteran crew have come up with a plan

to separate truck from tree.

We're actually going to take a chop saw,

and we're going to cut the first foot of frame rail

off the truck

so, that we can pull the truck sideways off the tree.

Try it, Rusty. Let's just see what moves.

It ain't happening.

He's got a good hard pull on it.

It's still not coming.

See this bracket?

Yeah. Give that a bump.

With the winter sun starting to set,

Bill needs to get past this first step.

This could be a real long night if we don't get this Bobcat

to give us that little bit of assistance that we need.

There you go! Good!

Every now and then, you gotta get a little bit rough, right?

Any time you have to abuse your equipment,

it doesn't sit well with you,

but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

We're good now.

We're going to run what they call a four-part line,

which means it gives us in the ballpark

of 80,000 pounds of pull.

We're just making sure we rig for enough

that we're not overloading any of our equipment.

You gotta bring that one. That's the short one, right?

This one. There you go, Doug.

You got enough now.

We're pulling 120,000-plus pounds up a hill.

A single line is not going to work.

It's just something that has to be done.

Their goal is to pull forward,

gaining room to separate the damaged tractor

and hook up their own...

Yeah, we're praying that this one is going to work.

Ready?

Pull!

..but even that might be impossible.

Moving at all?

Very slowly.

It's dragging me back!

It's pulling me back.

Pull!

Pull!

I am!

Oh, we got movement.

She's still putting up a good fight. She's a heavy pull.

You can see on the passenger side,

we're about 12in off the ground.

The old rotator's not looking real happy, is it?

Well, she's digging real hard on the left side of 'er.

I'm just gonna walk around and have a quick look here.

They haven't moved it much...

Hey, Russ?

Think you could get a tractor in here now to hook it onto that?

Yeah, I think we're not far from it.

..but it looks like enough...

Let's lumber up the dolly legs, two pieces on each side.

..if they can squeeze in and hook up.

There's no space for the rotator to get in there,

so, we're out of options.

So, what's the plan?

Well, I think we should get a 35-tonne here,

hook the 35-tonne on the front of it, and get it out of here...

There's no truck on scene small enough to do the job.

..and then we'll bring our tractor.

We'll get hooked onto it with our tractor, right?

So, we need the 35 and the blue tractor here.

It's a little bit complicated because it's so tight right here,

but we're kind of in that spot where we have no choice.

We're in a bit of a time crunch right now.

It's late afternoon.

We want to try to get this out before dark if we can.

I'll call Al to see if he can go get the 35.

We're going to get my brother Al to come down

and give us a little assistance getting this thing out of there.

Can he go to my yard and grab my 35-tonne and bring it out to us?

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

Is the pin pulled?

In a clearing off the 401 in Newtonville...

Here she comes.

..Al Wright has arrived with the smaller wrecker

to tow away the separated tractor.

So, we're going to get rid of the tractor now.

35-tonne's here.

If you back in here with the 35 and hook right onto this,

then just get it out on the street and drop it.

Then we're going to hook my blue tractor to this so it rolls.

The 35-tonne is smaller than the rotator,

but it still won't be an easy fit through the trees.

We're giving up the challenges of the highway and the traffic,

but we're gaining a whole lot of challenges

to get out through this field.

Let's do this thing.

Hold on. Whoa!

Whoa!

Hold on, Al.

Back up!

There wasn't much room to get the truck in whatsoever.

I had to really pay attention

to what I was doing putting it in there.

You are almost in the ditch.

We have a ditch on both sides of the truck,

and we have sharp culverts sticking out.

Deep ditch.

You're right on the edge there.

I couldn't get my front end over anymore at all.

Al's in position to hook up...

She'll come up against the frame. Pick 'er up.

No time to be shy!

I think you're good.

..but now he'll have to weave his way back out

with the tractor in tow.

Al's gotta turn hard left to get out of here.

Yeah. Fingers crossed.

Go, let 'er rip, give 'er.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

Kick it left.

Kick it left!

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

He's right into that culvert.

Come on!

Nice!

You're good now.

We're very relieved we got the tractor out of the way,

but we've still got the biggest challenge ahead of us.

That's not going to go straight out.

The tractor was just a dry run for the much bigger,

much heavier trailer.

Now, it's the real hard part,

trying to get this trailer out between the maze of all the trees.

As they roll the replacement tractor into place,

darkness is setting in.

Keep going, keep going straight.

She's locked.

The tractor will help the trailer roll and steer

as the rotator pulls them out together.

This gives us all the wheels and tires on the trailer

will now roll free.

We can get a tow truck on the front of our tractor

and winch it out through the hole.

We're losing our light quickly.

We've got to get this done and get out of here.

I'm gonna get the 'tator set up.

And Bill has an idea that could save the crew vital time.

If we didn't have the tree there, I would almost say yeah.

The tree is going to be the problem.

Well, Bill is going to try a Hail Mary move here.

We're gonna try and drive this truck outta here

with no assistance from anything else.

Air up the trailer.

I'm going to try and move that.

If I'm successful at driving this out of here

and not winching it out of here,

we're going to be able to get out of here before dark.

It's going to save us a lot of time.

Are you gonna take it right out?

Bill will need to rely on his decades of experience

behind the wheel.

Pulling a fully loaded tractor-trailer

through a 10ft opening around all the trees...

I'm going to try and drive ahead a little bit.

..it's something that I would never attempt on my,

on my own.

Want me to move her out of there?

Yep. Go up there, and you guide me.

I'm comin'.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

Come on.

I don't think it's gonna work myself,

but he's gonna give it a shot.

Who's behind the wheel? Bill?

Yep.

If I'm successful at driving this out of here

and not winching it out of here,

we're gonna be able to get out of here before dark.

He'll need to avoid the trees while straddling the ditch.

We're just crossing our fingers,

hoping this Hail Mary is going to work.

Here he goes.

Don't stop, let's go.

Come on, Billy!

Keep 'er out of the ditch.

Oh... Oh...

(LAUGHTER) Oh, no!

Where's the big tree? Am I OK?

I can't even see it on my side.

You should be able to see it out your other mirror.

The angle I'm on is no good.

I'm actually going to have to back up to try

and swing the back of the trailer around and get it lined up.

Hopefully, I don't get stuck.

OK, watch his far side.

Yeah, I'm gonna. That's OK.

I'm praying that he's not going to back up to the point

where we're going to be winching him out of the ditch.

We're trying to get the trailer out in one shot.

Heads up!

Whoo! Here goes.

It's close.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

Oh, oh, he went in the ditch.

Oh, oh, oh...

Yeah, whoo! (LAUGHTER)

Nice one!

Good job, buddy!

Nice! Nice!

That's the way it's done.

Alright, then.

Yes, sir!

Whoo!

That was good.

Not many guys could do what he just did.

That was pretty amazing.

Yeah, that was pretty tight, eh?

Oh, I think so.

About an inch off the tree.

Yeah.

Yeah, that was about as tight a spot I've ever been in.

I thought I was going to have to unhook.

That saved a boat-load of time, eh?

One-man team. Eh?

Saved a whole lot of time, I'll tell ya.

Oh, yeah! Hours.

Yeah.

Tonight, the skill acquired

over a long career made all the difference.

That saved about three hours' work.

We would have been here for a while winching it

because we would have had to probably go

with at least a four or five-part line with the weight.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

There's a lot of experience here.

I mean, that experience definitely paid off,

you know, being able to sneak that trailer out of here,

Russ knowing just how far I could go without sliding off the road.

Tomorrow they might feel the strain,

but tonight, they're feeling the victory.

Nice job, boss.

It's pretty cool to have good help.

My father once told me surround yourself with good people,

you'll get good results, and he was right.

Awesome, so thanks, guys. I appreciate it very much.

Good job. No problem, buddy.
