1
00:00:01,968 --> 00:00:04,571
[Narrator] This time
on Heavy Rescue: 401...
2
00:00:04,571 --> 00:00:06,406
Yeah, we don't want
to have to reposition.
3
00:00:06,406 --> 00:00:07,474
[Narrator] ...rookie team...
4
00:00:07,474 --> 00:00:09,009
[Shawn]
Okay, whoa, whoa, whoa!
5
00:00:09,009 --> 00:00:10,477
[Narrator]
...ends up in a bind.
6
00:00:10,477 --> 00:00:11,778
[Bill Fell]
You're right in the lane.
7
00:00:11,778 --> 00:00:13,646
Move over!
8
00:00:13,646 --> 00:00:15,348
[Narrator] Husband and wife...
9
00:00:15,348 --> 00:00:17,317
If something broke now,
we would be in trouble.
10
00:00:17,317 --> 00:00:18,918
[Narrator]
...feel the pressure.
11
00:00:18,918 --> 00:00:20,587
[James Ireland] I just
don't like this one bundle.
12
00:00:20,587 --> 00:00:21,955
Holy [bleep]!
13
00:00:21,955 --> 00:00:23,289
[Narrator]
...and a veteran operator...
14
00:00:23,289 --> 00:00:25,158
-[bang]
-What was that?
15
00:00:25,158 --> 00:00:27,093
[Narrator] ...has a close call.
16
00:00:27,093 --> 00:00:28,161
I got hit!
17
00:00:28,161 --> 00:00:29,629
[siren wailing]
18
00:00:40,306 --> 00:00:42,609
[traffic news radio] A winter
weather travel advisory
19
00:00:42,609 --> 00:00:44,177
is in effect for Toronto
20
00:00:44,177 --> 00:00:45,779
and the surrounding areas.
21
00:00:45,779 --> 00:00:49,649
Please take extra caution
on the roads.
22
00:00:49,649 --> 00:00:52,318
[Narrator]
A massive wave of low pressure
23
00:00:52,318 --> 00:00:55,855
has been pushing northeast
across the continent
24
00:00:55,855 --> 00:00:57,457
for days.
25
00:01:02,362 --> 00:01:05,365
[Narrator] As it slides
over Lake Ontario,
26
00:01:05,365 --> 00:01:08,601
the front pummels
the highways of Toronto
27
00:01:08,601 --> 00:01:12,739
with a mix of snow
and freezing rain.
28
00:01:19,012 --> 00:01:21,481
This is quite
the recipe for disaster.
29
00:01:22,882 --> 00:01:24,784
We've had quite a bit
of ice buildup
30
00:01:24,784 --> 00:01:26,653
on roadways and highways.
31
00:01:26,653 --> 00:01:28,488
[Narrator]
Directly to the west,
32
00:01:28,488 --> 00:01:29,556
in Mississauga,
33
00:01:29,556 --> 00:01:33,059
Constable Paul Sangha
watches for drivers
34
00:01:33,059 --> 00:01:36,229
who aren't watching
their speed.
35
00:01:36,229 --> 00:01:37,697
One of the most important
things people can do
36
00:01:37,697 --> 00:01:39,899
is to drive
according to the conditions
37
00:01:39,899 --> 00:01:41,334
and not the speed limit.
38
00:01:44,370 --> 00:01:47,373
[Narrator] With the 401
covered in ice,
39
00:01:47,373 --> 00:01:50,376
drivers can't
let down their guard
40
00:01:50,376 --> 00:01:52,078
for a single second...
41
00:01:53,513 --> 00:01:55,415
...and just after midnight...
42
00:01:55,415 --> 00:01:56,249
[brakes screech]
43
00:01:57,951 --> 00:01:59,419
[horn blaring]
44
00:02:08,962 --> 00:02:11,131
[activates police siren]
45
00:02:11,131 --> 00:02:14,100
[dispatch] Vehicle spun out
and hit the cement guardrail.
46
00:02:16,402 --> 00:02:18,972
Looks like this car
has just lost control
47
00:02:18,972 --> 00:02:20,740
and gone into a barrier here.
48
00:02:20,740 --> 00:02:23,877
I'm just going to stop for it.
49
00:02:23,877 --> 00:02:27,046
I have a silver sedan here,
50
00:02:27,046 --> 00:02:28,915
it's into the right barrier.
51
00:02:33,920 --> 00:02:37,123
Hi, Miss. How are you?
52
00:02:37,123 --> 00:02:39,526
Okay, what happened?
You just lost control?
53
00:02:39,526 --> 00:02:40,560
[driver] Yes.
54
00:02:41,528 --> 00:02:43,429
Okay. Are you hurt at all?
55
00:02:43,429 --> 00:02:44,364
-No.
-No?
56
00:02:44,364 --> 00:02:46,432
Okay, so what's gonna happen
57
00:02:46,432 --> 00:02:47,967
is we're gonna
have the car towed,
58
00:02:47,967 --> 00:02:49,636
'cause it's a lot of damage
in the front, okay?
59
00:02:49,636 --> 00:02:51,604
Just wait in the car.
60
00:02:51,604 --> 00:02:52,906
Once the tow truck gets here,
61
00:02:52,906 --> 00:02:55,341
just go have a seat
in his truck.
62
00:02:55,341 --> 00:02:57,143
[Narrator] The driver is okay,
63
00:02:57,143 --> 00:03:00,380
but the crash
is just the beginning.
64
00:03:00,380 --> 00:03:01,648
[Paul]
So if you can just hook 'er up
65
00:03:01,648 --> 00:03:03,516
and we'll just take 'er
back to the station.
66
00:03:09,389 --> 00:03:11,124
Tonight, things are
gonna get a lot worse
67
00:03:11,124 --> 00:03:12,859
before they get better.
68
00:03:22,035 --> 00:03:24,737
[Narrator] 35 kilometres
down the highway,
69
00:03:24,737 --> 00:03:27,040
in the heart of Toronto...
70
00:03:31,411 --> 00:03:35,181
[Narrator] ...another vehicle
has come to a hard stop.
71
00:03:40,119 --> 00:03:41,888
We're in this snowstorm.
72
00:03:41,888 --> 00:03:44,557
We've got a tractor
that skid out and hit the wall.
73
00:03:44,557 --> 00:03:46,659
[Narrator]
Despite the conditions...
74
00:03:46,659 --> 00:03:48,861
[Chad] It's a lot of traffic,
it's snowing...
75
00:03:48,861 --> 00:03:51,397
[Narrator] ...Abrams heavy op
Chad Grenier
76
00:03:51,397 --> 00:03:53,366
is facing more drivers
77
00:03:53,366 --> 00:03:54,734
who won't slow down.
78
00:03:54,734 --> 00:03:56,369
[Chad] Working in a live lane,
79
00:03:56,369 --> 00:03:59,205
cars are flying by you,
going too fast.
80
00:03:59,205 --> 00:04:01,608
We're in the express,
in the hammer lane,
81
00:04:01,608 --> 00:04:03,176
this truck is sideways,
82
00:04:03,176 --> 00:04:04,911
we're blocking lanes.
83
00:04:04,911 --> 00:04:06,980
Usually people are coming up
this side of the road
84
00:04:06,980 --> 00:04:08,848
pretty quickly.
85
00:04:08,848 --> 00:04:11,451
I gotta watch my back
on this one.
86
00:04:11,451 --> 00:04:13,486
So we're gonna spin him around
87
00:04:13,486 --> 00:04:15,888
and get him outta here
as quick as we can.
88
00:04:15,888 --> 00:04:18,157
[Narrator]
The tractor is an automatic.
89
00:04:18,157 --> 00:04:20,693
Forcing the rear drive wheels
to turn
90
00:04:20,693 --> 00:04:23,062
will destroy the transmission.
91
00:04:23,062 --> 00:04:24,797
[Chad] Automatic transmissions
are very finicky.
92
00:04:24,797 --> 00:04:26,766
These things, you've got
to pull something,
93
00:04:26,766 --> 00:04:28,268
or else
there can be some big damage.
94
00:04:29,535 --> 00:04:30,903
[Narrator]
On a night like this,
95
00:04:30,903 --> 00:04:33,439
the last thing Chad wants
96
00:04:33,439 --> 00:04:34,407
is to climb underneath
97
00:04:34,407 --> 00:04:37,443
and pull out the axles
or driveshaft.
98
00:04:37,443 --> 00:04:39,345
[Chad] I'm out here,
and I'm alone.
99
00:04:39,345 --> 00:04:40,313
I'm going to spin
this thing around
100
00:04:40,313 --> 00:04:41,447
and grab it from the back.
101
00:04:41,447 --> 00:04:43,349
[Narrator]
Towing from the back,
102
00:04:43,349 --> 00:04:46,886
only the front wheels
will touch the road...
103
00:04:47,954 --> 00:04:50,223
[Chad] Nobody's safe
standing here.
104
00:04:50,223 --> 00:04:53,059
It just takes one person
not paying attention,
105
00:04:53,059 --> 00:04:54,427
and we can all get hit.
106
00:04:54,427 --> 00:04:57,730
Man, traffic's whipping by
way too fast.
107
00:05:00,533 --> 00:05:02,035
We gotta get this thing
hooked up
108
00:05:02,035 --> 00:05:03,803
and get it out of here.
109
00:05:07,073 --> 00:05:08,107
[grunting with effort]
110
00:05:09,809 --> 00:05:10,977
Geez...
111
00:05:10,977 --> 00:05:13,980
[Narrator] ...but even plan B
puts him at risk.
112
00:05:15,915 --> 00:05:17,650
[Chad] It keeps slipping.
113
00:05:19,619 --> 00:05:22,188
[Chad] I'm between
the two trucks.
114
00:05:22,188 --> 00:05:23,323
[groaning]
115
00:05:23,323 --> 00:05:25,658
All it takes
is another truck to spin out,
116
00:05:25,658 --> 00:05:27,126
and it's gonna be bad for me.
117
00:05:27,126 --> 00:05:28,961
[passing truck blares horn]
118
00:05:28,961 --> 00:05:30,430
[♪♪♪]
119
00:05:45,378 --> 00:05:47,013
[Chad] Sometimes
it's a little tricky
120
00:05:47,013 --> 00:05:48,915
getting this lined up properly.
121
00:05:50,283 --> 00:05:52,719
[Chad] I'm hooking
this thing up quickly.
122
00:05:52,719 --> 00:05:53,653
I really don't want to be here.
123
00:05:57,223 --> 00:05:58,691
I think we're on.
124
00:06:00,493 --> 00:06:01,494
[clicking into place]
125
00:06:01,494 --> 00:06:03,296
There we go.
126
00:06:03,296 --> 00:06:05,398
I just gotta put the lights on,
127
00:06:05,398 --> 00:06:07,300
and then we'll be outta here.
128
00:06:10,503 --> 00:06:11,971
Hey, buddy,
129
00:06:11,971 --> 00:06:13,740
come around
the front of my truck,
130
00:06:13,740 --> 00:06:16,476
but look before you walk around
131
00:06:16,476 --> 00:06:18,144
and stay tight
to my truck, okay?
132
00:06:18,144 --> 00:06:19,545
Don't just go
around the corner,
133
00:06:19,545 --> 00:06:21,214
make sure
no cars are coming, okay?
134
00:06:21,214 --> 00:06:23,816
[Narrator]
A ride to a safe drop-off
135
00:06:23,816 --> 00:06:25,785
will be the end of the night
for the truck's driver,
136
00:06:25,785 --> 00:06:28,521
but Chad's night
137
00:06:28,521 --> 00:06:30,323
has barely started.
138
00:06:30,323 --> 00:06:32,425
This weather is getting bad
pretty quickly.
139
00:06:32,425 --> 00:06:34,527
We're getting calls
for more trucks,
140
00:06:34,527 --> 00:06:37,397
and I gotta tow this thing
to the customer's location...
141
00:06:37,397 --> 00:06:38,731
9-88, clear.
142
00:06:38,731 --> 00:06:40,533
[Chad] ...and get back
143
00:06:40,533 --> 00:06:41,701
so I can be there
for the next one.
144
00:07:00,853 --> 00:07:03,823
[Narrator] 60 kilometres
farther east,
145
00:07:03,823 --> 00:07:06,325
the storm is hitting
even harder.
146
00:07:09,061 --> 00:07:11,764
[Narrator]
...and at a bend in the road,
147
00:07:11,764 --> 00:07:14,467
traffic is squeezing past
another scene.
148
00:07:36,088 --> 00:07:38,090
[Narrator] Some heavy help
is on the way
149
00:07:38,090 --> 00:07:39,659
to answer the urgent call,
150
00:07:39,659 --> 00:07:42,328
and behind the wheel
151
00:07:42,328 --> 00:07:44,764
is an operator who knows
this patch of highway
152
00:07:44,764 --> 00:07:46,833
better than anyone...
153
00:07:46,833 --> 00:07:49,035
[Bill Wright] It's a dangerous
stretch of road,
154
00:07:49,035 --> 00:07:50,369
so the biggest concern here
155
00:07:50,369 --> 00:07:52,305
is to be as careful as we can.
156
00:07:52,305 --> 00:07:54,106
[Narrator] ...Bill Wright.
157
00:07:54,106 --> 00:07:55,141
[Bill] There's one lane
158
00:07:55,141 --> 00:07:56,042
that's been serviced
by the snow plows,
159
00:07:56,042 --> 00:07:56,976
but other than that,
160
00:07:56,976 --> 00:07:59,479
we've got snow-covered roads
161
00:07:59,479 --> 00:08:00,746
with slippery conditions,
162
00:08:00,746 --> 00:08:03,082
and this is
when accidents happen.
163
00:08:04,750 --> 00:08:08,521
[Narrator] Bill almost
left this life behind.
164
00:08:09,755 --> 00:08:11,824
[Bill] You spent a lot of time
in that old girl.
165
00:08:11,824 --> 00:08:13,526
[Narrator] Last spring,
166
00:08:13,526 --> 00:08:16,195
Bill sold off B&G Towing's
heavy fleet,
167
00:08:16,195 --> 00:08:19,832
a tough call
for the heavy recovery veteran.
168
00:08:19,832 --> 00:08:21,934
[Mitch Wright] Let's get a hug.
169
00:08:24,303 --> 00:08:25,505
[Bill] Everybody thought
170
00:08:25,505 --> 00:08:27,807
it might have been
the end of the heavy world.
171
00:08:28,941 --> 00:08:31,210
[Narrator] But before
the summer was even over,
172
00:08:31,210 --> 00:08:34,480
Bill found he couldn't resist
the pull of the road.
173
00:08:35,648 --> 00:08:38,084
[Bill] To switch
my lifestyle over
174
00:08:38,084 --> 00:08:40,052
to sitting on a beach somewhere,
175
00:08:40,052 --> 00:08:41,787
and try to take my mind off
176
00:08:41,787 --> 00:08:43,589
all the stuff
that's going on back here,
177
00:08:43,589 --> 00:08:45,658
it doesn't really work for me.
178
00:08:47,159 --> 00:08:50,863
[Narrator] So he invested
in some new heavy iron...
179
00:08:50,863 --> 00:08:53,099
[Bill] The new rotator,
180
00:08:53,099 --> 00:08:55,535
it's still not lettered,
it's still not logoed.
181
00:08:55,535 --> 00:08:56,736
We haven't decided
where we're going
182
00:08:56,736 --> 00:08:58,371
with the B&G image,
183
00:08:58,371 --> 00:09:00,406
but we're gonna splash it up.
184
00:09:03,809 --> 00:09:05,711
[Narrator] ...and tonight,
185
00:09:05,711 --> 00:09:08,180
Bill is a long way
from the beach.
186
00:09:08,180 --> 00:09:09,181
[Bill] It's dark.
187
00:09:09,181 --> 00:09:10,316
It's a snowy,
rainy kind of night.
188
00:09:10,316 --> 00:09:12,218
It's on a bend.
189
00:09:17,924 --> 00:09:18,925
[truck honks twice]
190
00:09:18,925 --> 00:09:20,059
[Bill]
It's one of the last corners
191
00:09:20,059 --> 00:09:21,460
before you come into
the bright lights.
192
00:09:21,460 --> 00:09:23,563
You know,
your eyes are adjusting,
193
00:09:23,563 --> 00:09:27,700
and unfortunately,
it's a pretty large mess here.
194
00:09:29,235 --> 00:09:31,170
[Narrator]
A straight truck lost traction
195
00:09:31,170 --> 00:09:34,173
on the sharp bend...
196
00:09:34,173 --> 00:09:37,577
when a tractor-trailer
smashed into it,
197
00:09:37,577 --> 00:09:40,947
sending both sprawling
across two lanes.
198
00:09:43,082 --> 00:09:46,552
[Bill] We are essentially
inches from the moving traffic.
199
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:48,721
We're gonna try
and spin the straight truck
200
00:09:48,721 --> 00:09:50,156
outta the way,
201
00:09:50,156 --> 00:09:52,325
and then get the tractor-trailer
outta the way.
202
00:09:54,226 --> 00:09:56,829
[Narrator] Bill's son, Mitch, is
not here tonight...
203
00:09:58,331 --> 00:09:59,532
[Bill] Right over top
of the frame rail,
204
00:09:59,532 --> 00:10:01,100
and down and around and under.
205
00:10:01,100 --> 00:10:03,369
[Narrator] ...so he's relying
206
00:10:03,369 --> 00:10:05,104
on a whole new team.
207
00:10:05,104 --> 00:10:06,138
-Chris?
-Yeah.
208
00:10:06,138 --> 00:10:07,440
Can you put this driver
in your truck?
209
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:08,674
-I already have one in mine.
-Yup.
210
00:10:12,778 --> 00:10:16,248
[Narrator] Dylan Irvine
is getting his first taste
211
00:10:16,248 --> 00:10:17,750
of heavy recovery.
212
00:10:17,750 --> 00:10:18,651
[Dylan] That's good.
213
00:10:18,651 --> 00:10:20,620
[Bill] Dylan comes to us
214
00:10:20,620 --> 00:10:22,288
with a good
mechanical background,
215
00:10:22,288 --> 00:10:24,857
and I say he's big,
he's tall, he's strong.
216
00:10:24,857 --> 00:10:26,125
[Narrator] Strong qualities,
217
00:10:26,125 --> 00:10:30,229
but no substitute
for experience...
218
00:10:31,731 --> 00:10:32,732
[Dylan]
What are you loaded with?
219
00:10:32,732 --> 00:10:34,834
Nothing, you empty?
220
00:10:34,834 --> 00:10:36,168
It's a crazy feeling
221
00:10:36,168 --> 00:10:38,971
being out on the 401 at night
in these conditions.
222
00:10:38,971 --> 00:10:40,439
[Bill]
All right, break 'er down.
223
00:10:41,540 --> 00:10:42,642
[Dylan] I definitely
need to pay attention
224
00:10:42,642 --> 00:10:44,443
to what's going on around me,
225
00:10:44,443 --> 00:10:45,811
and make sure we all stay safe.
226
00:10:51,150 --> 00:10:53,452
[Narrator] ...and as they prep
to pull out the semi...
227
00:10:53,452 --> 00:10:54,620
[air brakes hiss]
228
00:10:54,620 --> 00:10:57,256
...they're in a very bad spot.
229
00:10:58,257 --> 00:11:00,760
[Bill] And we are on
the white line of that lane,
230
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:02,628
but it's the only way
the traffic can get by.
231
00:11:02,628 --> 00:11:05,631
It's just a bad situation
all the way around
232
00:11:05,631 --> 00:11:06,799
from the get-go here,
233
00:11:06,799 --> 00:11:07,767
but it's what we do,
234
00:11:07,767 --> 00:11:09,769
and we have to get this moved.
235
00:11:09,769 --> 00:11:10,603
Tilt 'er down
just a little bit,
236
00:11:10,603 --> 00:11:11,671
and I'll back you up.
237
00:11:12,505 --> 00:11:13,506
[Bill] It's really scary
238
00:11:13,506 --> 00:11:14,674
because one second
239
00:11:14,674 --> 00:11:16,208
of somebody not paying
the right attention,
240
00:11:16,208 --> 00:11:18,177
and you've got a catastrophe
on your hands.
241
00:11:21,580 --> 00:11:23,749
[Chris]
These guys are ripping, eh?
242
00:11:23,749 --> 00:11:25,384
It's crazy.
243
00:11:27,820 --> 00:11:28,788
[horn blaring]
244
00:11:41,867 --> 00:11:45,371
[Narrator] On the 401
just outside of Courtice...
245
00:11:45,371 --> 00:11:47,540
Go, go!
246
00:11:47,540 --> 00:11:48,708
[Narrator]
...Bill and his crew
247
00:11:48,708 --> 00:11:50,710
are clearing the semi
248
00:11:50,710 --> 00:11:53,679
from the scene
of their double recovery.
249
00:11:55,581 --> 00:11:56,982
[Bill] Real gentle.
250
00:11:56,982 --> 00:11:59,251
[Narrator] Now they have to
pull out the straight truck,
251
00:11:59,251 --> 00:12:01,721
and stuck on this blind curve,
252
00:12:01,721 --> 00:12:04,190
they need to do it quickly.
253
00:12:04,190 --> 00:12:05,925
[Bill]
We're not in a good place.
254
00:12:05,925 --> 00:12:07,159
You know, we've got
two lanes closed.
255
00:12:07,159 --> 00:12:08,527
You know,
256
00:12:08,527 --> 00:12:09,762
when you're in a bad spot
on the highway,
257
00:12:09,762 --> 00:12:11,197
you have a lot at stake.
258
00:12:12,431 --> 00:12:14,734
I want you to all
watch your backs,
259
00:12:14,734 --> 00:12:15,768
go around the front here
260
00:12:15,768 --> 00:12:17,036
on the other side
of that truck, okay?
261
00:12:17,036 --> 00:12:18,504
[Narrator] So tonight,
262
00:12:18,504 --> 00:12:20,439
Bill's friend Chris Collins
263
00:12:20,439 --> 00:12:22,208
is watching the crew's backs.
264
00:12:22,208 --> 00:12:24,443
[Chris] I keep my eye
on that traffic
265
00:12:24,443 --> 00:12:26,445
so that if something happens,
266
00:12:26,445 --> 00:12:27,880
I'm that voice that's gonna say,
267
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,316
"Hey, guys,
clear out of the area."
268
00:12:30,316 --> 00:12:32,618
Chris is an independent
owner-operator
269
00:12:32,618 --> 00:12:34,954
with his own small tow truck.
270
00:12:34,954 --> 00:12:36,922
He's just one of those guys
that's always there
271
00:12:36,922 --> 00:12:38,891
to give me a hand
when I need it.
272
00:12:38,891 --> 00:12:40,459
Chris has always been
that friend to B&G,
273
00:12:40,459 --> 00:12:42,228
and all of B&G's employees.
274
00:12:43,229 --> 00:12:45,030
[Dylan] I'm just gonna
back in a little bit.
275
00:12:45,030 --> 00:12:46,065
[reverse alerts beeping]
276
00:12:48,934 --> 00:12:49,769
Good.
277
00:12:50,903 --> 00:12:51,771
There you go.
278
00:12:51,771 --> 00:12:54,240
-Just go ahead, slow.
-Okay.
279
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,008
[Narrator] The plan is simple,
280
00:12:56,008 --> 00:12:57,910
pull the truck
out of the snowbank,
281
00:12:57,910 --> 00:13:00,379
and quickly hook
and tow it away
282
00:13:00,379 --> 00:13:02,047
from the back...
283
00:13:08,587 --> 00:13:11,123
[Narrator] ...but as the truck
inches out...
284
00:13:11,123 --> 00:13:11,957
[Bill] Whoa!
285
00:13:11,957 --> 00:13:13,626
[air hisses]
286
00:13:13,626 --> 00:13:15,628
That's going to be a problem.
287
00:13:16,929 --> 00:13:19,265
The front end is hammered.
288
00:13:20,166 --> 00:13:22,468
That's not good.
289
00:13:22,468 --> 00:13:24,270
[Bill] The left front corner
is disastrous.
290
00:13:24,270 --> 00:13:25,905
The wheel's off the rim.
291
00:13:25,905 --> 00:13:27,006
The axle's pushed back.
292
00:13:28,774 --> 00:13:29,642
Oh, yeah...
293
00:13:31,677 --> 00:13:32,878
Yup...
294
00:13:32,878 --> 00:13:34,446
We're not gonna be able
to tow this from the back.
295
00:13:34,446 --> 00:13:36,115
Um...
296
00:13:37,449 --> 00:13:40,152
[Narrator] That adds
a major complication
297
00:13:40,152 --> 00:13:42,621
on a dangerous stretch of road.
298
00:13:42,621 --> 00:13:43,923
We're into a situation now,
299
00:13:43,923 --> 00:13:44,824
we're gonna
have to get this thing
300
00:13:44,824 --> 00:13:45,758
turned around somehow.
301
00:13:48,994 --> 00:13:50,262
Come ahead with it,
302
00:13:50,262 --> 00:13:52,832
and get the back corner of it
tight to this wall,
303
00:13:52,832 --> 00:13:54,033
and then we'll drag
the front end around, I guess.
304
00:13:54,033 --> 00:13:54,867
Okay.
305
00:13:56,202 --> 00:13:57,703
[Bill] We've got to take
a 38-foot truck,
306
00:13:57,703 --> 00:13:58,804
get it turned around
307
00:13:58,804 --> 00:14:00,873
inside a 50-foot section,
308
00:14:00,873 --> 00:14:02,708
while we allow traffic to go by.
309
00:14:03,542 --> 00:14:06,045
[Narrator] Bill's hoping
he can use the flatbed
310
00:14:06,045 --> 00:14:08,681
to wrench the front
of the truck around.
311
00:14:08,681 --> 00:14:10,449
I haven't tied
the steering yet,
312
00:14:10,449 --> 00:14:11,317
so let me watch it.
313
00:14:11,317 --> 00:14:12,151
Yeah.
314
00:14:31,036 --> 00:14:34,406
Set 'er down, grab a chain, I'll
loop the rim.
315
00:14:34,406 --> 00:14:36,508
Go ahead slow
and we'll see how it reacts.
316
00:14:43,349 --> 00:14:46,218
Let's try it and see.
317
00:14:47,887 --> 00:14:49,521
All right, go ahead.
318
00:14:50,556 --> 00:14:52,658
[Chris] I'm just
watching the traffic.
319
00:14:52,658 --> 00:14:53,759
They're not slowing down.
320
00:14:53,759 --> 00:14:54,793
They're just flying by.
321
00:14:54,793 --> 00:14:57,196
It's a sketchy situation
at all angles.
322
00:14:59,999 --> 00:15:01,033
Real gentle.
323
00:15:04,403 --> 00:15:05,771
She's coming.
324
00:15:14,647 --> 00:15:16,081
Keep going.
325
00:15:22,721 --> 00:15:24,290
Awesome.
326
00:15:25,190 --> 00:15:26,392
[Bill]
It slid around, you know,
327
00:15:26,392 --> 00:15:27,293
just like we had planned,
328
00:15:27,293 --> 00:15:28,727
and it made us look pretty good.
329
00:15:29,762 --> 00:15:32,231
[Narrator] Now they just need
to hook up for the tow,
330
00:15:32,231 --> 00:15:35,434
and get off the highway.
331
00:15:35,434 --> 00:15:37,102
[Bill] Chris is out there,
you know,
332
00:15:37,102 --> 00:15:39,338
trying to give the traffic
a heads up that we're here,
333
00:15:39,338 --> 00:15:40,773
and Dylan's bringing
the flatbed
334
00:15:40,773 --> 00:15:42,408
back into position...
335
00:15:42,408 --> 00:15:44,076
[reverse alerts beeping]
336
00:15:46,612 --> 00:15:48,580
[bang]
337
00:15:48,580 --> 00:15:50,382
What was that?
338
00:15:50,382 --> 00:15:51,817
[Chris groans]
339
00:15:51,817 --> 00:15:53,319
-You okay, Chris?
-I got hit!
340
00:15:53,319 --> 00:15:54,586
[Bill] We hear the thump,
341
00:15:54,586 --> 00:15:56,722
something has come in contact
with a human body.
342
00:15:57,790 --> 00:15:59,291
[bleep]
343
00:15:59,291 --> 00:16:00,759
What do you need.
What do you need?
344
00:16:00,759 --> 00:16:02,261
Where'd you get hit, Chris?
345
00:16:02,261 --> 00:16:03,195
-[moaning]
-Forearm.
346
00:16:03,195 --> 00:16:04,129
-Your arm?
-Yeah.
347
00:16:04,129 --> 00:16:06,298
-[groaning] Oh!
-Hello?
348
00:16:09,168 --> 00:16:11,303
We're westbound 401,
east of Harmony.
349
00:16:11,303 --> 00:16:13,939
One of our wrecker operators
just got hit.
350
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:15,741
[groaning]
351
00:16:27,386 --> 00:16:29,421
[Narrator]
On the westbound 401
352
00:16:29,421 --> 00:16:30,756
east of Courtice...
353
00:16:30,756 --> 00:16:32,558
[bleep]!
354
00:16:32,558 --> 00:16:34,259
-[Chris groans in pain]
-[Bill] Hello?
355
00:16:36,128 --> 00:16:37,062
[Bill] Okay!
356
00:16:37,062 --> 00:16:37,997
[Narrator] While watching out
357
00:16:37,997 --> 00:16:40,332
for the rest
of the crew's safety,
358
00:16:40,332 --> 00:16:42,134
Chris has been struck himself.
359
00:16:42,134 --> 00:16:44,803
[Bill] One of our wrecker
operators just got hit.
360
00:16:44,803 --> 00:16:45,804
Non-life-threatening.
361
00:16:45,804 --> 00:16:46,739
Looks like an arm,
shoulder, hip.
362
00:16:46,739 --> 00:16:47,906
Conscious, breathing.
363
00:16:49,008 --> 00:16:50,209
[Dylan]
Don't take your glove off.
364
00:16:50,209 --> 00:16:51,643
Just leave it there.
365
00:16:51,643 --> 00:16:53,612
I just wanna make sure
you weren't cut or nothing.
366
00:16:53,612 --> 00:16:54,613
[Chris groans]
367
00:16:58,117 --> 00:16:59,184
Chris was in a lot of pain.
368
00:17:00,252 --> 00:17:02,254
He took a hell of a hit.
369
00:17:02,254 --> 00:17:03,789
I don't wanna take
this glove off right now.
370
00:17:03,789 --> 00:17:04,857
-No?
-No.
371
00:17:04,857 --> 00:17:06,025
We gotta be concerned now
372
00:17:06,025 --> 00:17:07,659
with it being
a life-altering injury.
373
00:17:08,927 --> 00:17:10,262
[groans] Oh...
374
00:17:10,262 --> 00:17:11,463
[ambulance sirens]
375
00:17:11,463 --> 00:17:12,498
Here they come, Chris.
376
00:17:26,378 --> 00:17:28,814
The car did initially stop,
377
00:17:28,814 --> 00:17:30,015
and had its four-ways on,
378
00:17:30,015 --> 00:17:30,983
and then he buggered off.
379
00:17:30,983 --> 00:17:32,384
Unbelievable.
380
00:17:32,384 --> 00:17:33,986
By the time we even
realized it happened,
381
00:17:33,986 --> 00:17:35,687
it was up there, right?
382
00:17:35,687 --> 00:17:37,523
[Bill] We have a hit and run
on our hands here.
383
00:17:38,957 --> 00:17:41,326
The car that clipped Chris
was fully aware what he did,
384
00:17:41,326 --> 00:17:43,128
because he slowed down
almost to a stop,
385
00:17:43,128 --> 00:17:45,864
and then proceeded to leave
the scene of the accident.
386
00:17:45,864 --> 00:17:47,733
It was a snap of a finger,
that fast.
387
00:17:47,733 --> 00:17:49,201
What I can really remember of it
388
00:17:49,201 --> 00:17:52,638
was that I got my arm up
to protect my head,
389
00:17:52,638 --> 00:17:53,572
and that's about it,
390
00:17:53,572 --> 00:17:56,308
other than
I got... squished.
391
00:17:56,308 --> 00:17:58,410
Okay, thanks, guys.
392
00:17:58,410 --> 00:17:59,545
[Bill]
With a lump in our throat,
393
00:17:59,545 --> 00:18:00,913
we finish cleaning up the scene
394
00:18:00,913 --> 00:18:01,980
and get off the highway.
395
00:18:02,881 --> 00:18:05,350
[sighs heavily]
396
00:18:05,350 --> 00:18:08,487
Deep down inside,
you're so angry and upset
397
00:18:08,487 --> 00:18:10,589
with the fact that people
would have that mindset
398
00:18:10,589 --> 00:18:14,026
to just drive away from somebody
399
00:18:14,026 --> 00:18:15,661
who's possibly injured.
400
00:18:16,595 --> 00:18:17,863
You know, maybe that person
401
00:18:17,863 --> 00:18:20,265
could have helped us
save his life,
402
00:18:20,265 --> 00:18:21,433
and they didn't even
bother to stay.
403
00:18:22,668 --> 00:18:24,403
[Narrator]
From the initial exam,
404
00:18:24,403 --> 00:18:27,206
it looks like
Chris will be okay...
405
00:18:27,206 --> 00:18:29,041
[Bill] Are you ready
to pull ahead, Chad?
406
00:18:29,041 --> 00:18:32,411
[Narrator] ...but as the crew
puts this job behind them,
407
00:18:32,411 --> 00:18:35,080
the lesson is not lost.
408
00:18:38,183 --> 00:18:39,418
[Bill] Reality is,
409
00:18:39,418 --> 00:18:41,887
another six inches,
and, you know,
410
00:18:41,887 --> 00:18:43,889
we could have been
attending a funeral, right?
411
00:18:43,889 --> 00:18:45,624
It's one of those things, man.
412
00:18:45,624 --> 00:18:47,226
You hear about it all the time,
413
00:18:47,226 --> 00:18:50,095
and you just hope it's never
you or your crew, right?
414
00:18:50,095 --> 00:18:53,232
But the reality is,
it can happen any time.
415
00:19:13,218 --> 00:19:16,588
[Narrator]
Almost 400 kilometres east...
416
00:19:19,591 --> 00:19:21,760
[Narrator] ...morning brings
an end to the storm
417
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:25,898
that battered the 401
all day yesterday...
418
00:19:27,232 --> 00:19:28,433
[Bill Fell]
It's a little cool out,
419
00:19:28,433 --> 00:19:30,402
and might be a little windy.
420
00:19:31,370 --> 00:19:32,671
[Narrator]
...but at Herb's Towing yard
421
00:19:32,671 --> 00:19:33,839
in Cornwall,
422
00:19:33,839 --> 00:19:35,741
there's still work ahead.
423
00:19:35,741 --> 00:19:36,775
Feeling kinda tired
424
00:19:36,775 --> 00:19:37,976
with all the hours
I've been doing,
425
00:19:37,976 --> 00:19:39,511
but...
426
00:19:39,511 --> 00:19:41,480
job's gotta get done, right?
427
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,283
[Narrator] ...and heavy op
Bill Fell is ready
428
00:19:44,283 --> 00:19:46,518
for one more battle.
429
00:19:46,518 --> 00:19:48,620
So we're heading out
to do the last casualty
430
00:19:48,620 --> 00:19:49,755
of yesterday's storm.
431
00:19:49,755 --> 00:19:51,657
In an ideal world,
432
00:19:51,657 --> 00:19:53,392
you can usually
recover these wrecks
433
00:19:53,392 --> 00:19:54,660
right after they happen...
434
00:19:56,061 --> 00:19:58,030
...but
because of the weather,
435
00:19:58,030 --> 00:19:59,498
you can't do it right away,
436
00:19:59,498 --> 00:20:02,634
and you gotta wait.
437
00:20:04,102 --> 00:20:05,537
[James, over radio]
Ready to roll, Billy?
438
00:20:06,805 --> 00:20:08,006
Here we go.
439
00:20:10,842 --> 00:20:11,877
[Narrator] Today...
440
00:20:11,877 --> 00:20:14,012
Bill won't be able to lean
on the boss.
441
00:20:15,047 --> 00:20:17,716
I can't be out here
seven days a week
442
00:20:17,716 --> 00:20:19,518
coordinating all these wrecks.
443
00:20:20,552 --> 00:20:23,055
I need to be able
to count on the team
444
00:20:23,055 --> 00:20:24,489
to do what I do.
445
00:20:24,489 --> 00:20:26,358
Here we go, boys.
446
00:20:27,793 --> 00:20:30,195
Always an exciting day
at Herb's Towing.
447
00:20:30,195 --> 00:20:31,830
[Bill] Andrew's
stepping back a bit
448
00:20:31,830 --> 00:20:34,199
to let us kind of
handle the scenes,
449
00:20:34,199 --> 00:20:36,101
you know,
get us better hands-on.
450
00:20:37,169 --> 00:20:39,271
We need to be able
to do stuff ourselves
451
00:20:39,271 --> 00:20:42,007
if he's ever not around.
452
00:20:44,009 --> 00:20:47,679
I've been here
for five and a half years,
453
00:20:47,679 --> 00:20:50,182
and I have really grown
in the company.
454
00:20:50,182 --> 00:20:52,918
I've come a long way, and...
455
00:20:52,918 --> 00:20:54,686
here I am now,
456
00:20:54,686 --> 00:20:56,255
almost leading the pack.
457
00:20:57,155 --> 00:20:59,258
[Narrator] So Bill
needs to show Andrew
458
00:20:59,258 --> 00:21:01,660
that the crew can pull off
the recovery
459
00:21:01,660 --> 00:21:04,062
without any issues.
460
00:21:04,062 --> 00:21:05,864
Oh, my.
461
00:21:15,207 --> 00:21:16,875
This is going to be
a challenge.
462
00:21:17,709 --> 00:21:20,545
How the hell did he get
on this side
463
00:21:20,545 --> 00:21:23,682
from facing the other way
on the highway?
464
00:21:23,682 --> 00:21:26,084
It's crazy.
465
00:21:26,084 --> 00:21:28,620
This one
was traveling eastbound,
466
00:21:28,620 --> 00:21:30,389
lost control,
467
00:21:30,389 --> 00:21:32,591
went through the centre median,
468
00:21:32,591 --> 00:21:33,925
across to the other side,
469
00:21:33,925 --> 00:21:37,629
and came very close
to hitting an overpass.
470
00:21:38,964 --> 00:21:40,632
Got my block heater on.
471
00:21:40,632 --> 00:21:42,534
Time to play.
472
00:21:46,571 --> 00:21:48,473
[Bill] Up an embankment,
473
00:21:48,473 --> 00:21:50,309
we've got cement barriers
stopping us
474
00:21:50,309 --> 00:21:53,078
from just pulling it right out.
475
00:21:53,078 --> 00:21:55,714
So we gotta be on our game
on this one.
476
00:21:56,581 --> 00:21:57,449
That's where he came in?
477
00:21:57,449 --> 00:21:58,383
That's where
he came across.
478
00:21:58,383 --> 00:21:59,751
Wow.
479
00:21:59,751 --> 00:22:01,620
He took a whole section
of guardrail out.
480
00:22:01,620 --> 00:22:03,755
[Narrator]
As Bill ponders a plan,
481
00:22:03,755 --> 00:22:06,825
he'll be relying on new hire
James Clarke,
482
00:22:06,825 --> 00:22:09,761
still learning the basics
of heavy recovery.
483
00:22:09,761 --> 00:22:11,963
[James Clarke] I'm gonna be
operating the 50-tonne.
484
00:22:11,963 --> 00:22:14,166
I don't have as much
experience as Bill does,
485
00:22:14,166 --> 00:22:16,668
but, uh, you know,
hopefully it all goes well.
486
00:22:18,170 --> 00:22:19,571
[Bill] James
has a lot of potential.
487
00:22:19,571 --> 00:22:21,773
He's smart,
he's willing to learn.
488
00:22:21,773 --> 00:22:23,909
I think he definitely has
what it takes.
489
00:22:25,677 --> 00:22:28,013
[Narrator] Overseeing the job,
490
00:22:28,013 --> 00:22:28,980
Andrew's cousin
491
00:22:28,980 --> 00:22:30,482
and co-owner of the company,
492
00:22:30,482 --> 00:22:32,317
Shawn Vink.
493
00:22:32,317 --> 00:22:35,153
Billy, is there anything left
in those tanks, or no?
494
00:22:36,121 --> 00:22:37,923
[Narrator] Despite growing up
in the company,
495
00:22:37,923 --> 00:22:40,459
Shawn works out of
Herb's Vankleek Hill shop...
496
00:22:40,459 --> 00:22:42,160
What's the plan here?
497
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,830
[Narrator] ...where there's
one tool they don't have.
498
00:22:44,830 --> 00:22:47,032
[Shawn]
I don't have the experience
499
00:22:47,032 --> 00:22:48,600
of working with rotators
as much,
500
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:49,768
and on top of it,
501
00:22:49,768 --> 00:22:52,804
I'm like the greenhorn
in managing the wreck.
502
00:22:54,439 --> 00:22:55,841
[Narrator] Today,
503
00:22:55,841 --> 00:22:58,276
Shawn and Bill will need
to lean on one another
504
00:22:58,276 --> 00:23:00,145
to manage the scene.
505
00:23:00,145 --> 00:23:01,446
The plan's gonna be,
506
00:23:01,446 --> 00:23:02,981
we're gonna park the 50
at the rear of the trailer.
507
00:23:02,981 --> 00:23:04,483
The 80's gonna be at the front.
508
00:23:04,483 --> 00:23:05,684
Bring 'er up right over here.
509
00:23:05,684 --> 00:23:07,185
Yeah, pick it up,
510
00:23:07,185 --> 00:23:09,020
and then you're gonna bring it
right in between the two trucks.
511
00:23:09,020 --> 00:23:10,222
How much weight's in it?
512
00:23:10,222 --> 00:23:12,657
I'm guessing
probably 70,000 pounds.
513
00:23:12,657 --> 00:23:13,692
Okay.
514
00:23:13,692 --> 00:23:14,659
-Sounds good, boys?
-Yeah.
515
00:23:14,659 --> 00:23:16,828
-We can do it.
-Get set up.
516
00:23:16,828 --> 00:23:18,563
-Yup.
-Let's go.
517
00:23:18,563 --> 00:23:20,132
Shawn has
a lot of pressure on him.
518
00:23:20,132 --> 00:23:22,701
He hasn't managed
a lot of scenes.
519
00:23:22,701 --> 00:23:25,203
He's gotta do
some good calculating,
520
00:23:25,203 --> 00:23:27,873
and make sure that we position
these trucks properly
521
00:23:27,873 --> 00:23:30,242
to be able to get this job
pulled off.
522
00:23:30,242 --> 00:23:32,310
We'll see how he does today.
523
00:23:32,310 --> 00:23:35,046
Un, deux, trois, quatre...
524
00:23:35,046 --> 00:23:37,249
[Shawn] The plan
is to lift the truck up
525
00:23:37,249 --> 00:23:38,216
and bring it between,
526
00:23:38,216 --> 00:23:39,284
so I'm pacing down
527
00:23:39,284 --> 00:23:40,852
and making sure
I got enough room
528
00:23:40,852 --> 00:23:41,853
in between the two trucks
529
00:23:41,853 --> 00:23:43,054
to fit the truck and trailer.
530
00:23:43,054 --> 00:23:44,990
So you basically want
the corner of my truck
531
00:23:44,990 --> 00:23:46,057
flush with
the corner of this one?
532
00:23:46,057 --> 00:23:48,026
Little bit inside,
little bit more inside.
533
00:23:48,026 --> 00:23:49,928
And we don't wanna
have to reposition.
534
00:23:49,928 --> 00:23:51,396
[Bill] Really important
535
00:23:51,396 --> 00:23:54,065
to be able to utilize
the space that we have
536
00:23:54,065 --> 00:23:56,034
to be able to lift that truck
out of there
537
00:23:56,034 --> 00:23:58,170
and get it
where we need to get it.
538
00:24:00,472 --> 00:24:02,674
[Narrator] They'll rely
on both rotators
539
00:24:02,674 --> 00:24:05,444
to get the truck
closer to the road,
540
00:24:05,444 --> 00:24:07,579
slide it around the barrier,
541
00:24:07,579 --> 00:24:10,549
and set it down
between two wreckers.
542
00:24:13,285 --> 00:24:14,920
[Bill] Positioning is key.
543
00:24:16,121 --> 00:24:17,422
I'm ready.
544
00:24:17,422 --> 00:24:18,457
You ready, James?
545
00:24:18,457 --> 00:24:19,391
Yeah.
546
00:24:20,225 --> 00:24:23,128
[Bill] This is not
a simple lift and winch.
547
00:24:23,128 --> 00:24:24,729
It's pretty technical.
548
00:24:24,729 --> 00:24:27,799
We gotta try and get
this trailer around his truck.
549
00:24:27,799 --> 00:24:29,935
Hopefully it goes good.
550
00:24:29,935 --> 00:24:31,236
We kind of have two rookies,
551
00:24:31,236 --> 00:24:34,072
one in the leadership position,
552
00:24:34,072 --> 00:24:36,608
and the other one
using a rotator.
553
00:24:36,608 --> 00:24:38,376
It's really a balancing act.
554
00:24:38,376 --> 00:24:41,213
-My tractor's up.
-Okay.
555
00:24:41,213 --> 00:24:42,647
So yeah, you're going
to lift it up?
556
00:24:43,982 --> 00:24:45,650
This could get interesting.
557
00:24:46,618 --> 00:24:49,754
I'm going to
bring it up a little.
558
00:24:49,754 --> 00:24:51,556
[Shawn] Josh,
you watching that trailer?
559
00:24:51,556 --> 00:24:53,558
Yep.
560
00:24:53,558 --> 00:24:55,727
[Shawn] So I show up,
and I'm thinking,
561
00:24:55,727 --> 00:24:56,928
"This is gonna be an easy job,"
562
00:24:56,928 --> 00:24:59,631
and this has been
quite the contrary so far.
563
00:24:59,631 --> 00:25:01,433
[thudding]
564
00:25:05,670 --> 00:25:08,874
[Shawn] Okay, so yeah,
you're gonna lift it up?
565
00:25:08,874 --> 00:25:10,809
[Narrator]
On the westbound 401
566
00:25:10,809 --> 00:25:12,310
near Ingleside...
567
00:25:12,310 --> 00:25:13,712
-Okay...
-[thudding]
568
00:25:13,712 --> 00:25:15,046
[Shawn] Oh...
569
00:25:15,046 --> 00:25:16,515
[Narrator] ...the Herb's crew
570
00:25:16,515 --> 00:25:17,549
is trying to pull off
571
00:25:17,549 --> 00:25:20,785
a precision
double-rotator maneuver...
572
00:25:22,554 --> 00:25:24,789
[Narrator]
...but two thirds of this crew
573
00:25:24,789 --> 00:25:26,791
is new to their roles.
574
00:25:26,791 --> 00:25:29,127
[Shawn] Right there, hold it.
575
00:25:29,127 --> 00:25:30,262
You're gonna boom up, boom in.
576
00:25:30,262 --> 00:25:32,364
Billy, you're gonna
boom up, boom in, too.
577
00:25:32,364 --> 00:25:33,798
[Narrator] The first step,
578
00:25:33,798 --> 00:25:37,235
coax the semi closer
to the edge of the road.
579
00:25:37,235 --> 00:25:39,337
Okay, so boom up now
a little bit.
580
00:25:42,641 --> 00:25:44,509
Yeah. Oh,
whoa, whoa, whoa, boys.
581
00:25:44,509 --> 00:25:45,377
Right there.
582
00:25:45,377 --> 00:25:47,412
Okay, keep going
a little bit.
583
00:25:47,412 --> 00:25:49,714
[James] Oh, definitely
being a rookie, you know,
584
00:25:49,714 --> 00:25:51,550
operating the 50-tonne
like that,
585
00:25:51,550 --> 00:25:54,753
especially with
zero experience, you know,
586
00:25:54,753 --> 00:25:56,054
it could definitely
be stressful.
587
00:25:56,054 --> 00:25:57,589
[Shawn] Okay...
588
00:25:57,589 --> 00:26:00,225
That's good, that's good,
that's good.
589
00:26:12,737 --> 00:26:14,339
Ah, okay.
590
00:26:14,339 --> 00:26:17,442
[Narrator]
Now Bill and rookie James
591
00:26:17,442 --> 00:26:18,910
need to lift together,
592
00:26:18,910 --> 00:26:21,613
and swing the semi
into the single lane...
593
00:26:21,613 --> 00:26:22,747
Okay.
594
00:26:22,747 --> 00:26:25,617
[Narrator]
...and between their rotators.
595
00:26:26,685 --> 00:26:27,786
[Shawn] The big thing
is gonna be
596
00:26:27,786 --> 00:26:29,187
getting
the back end of the trailer
597
00:26:29,187 --> 00:26:31,289
in between the line and the 50
598
00:26:31,289 --> 00:26:33,258
without going
in the live traffic.
599
00:26:34,259 --> 00:26:36,895
Okay, you can lift 'er up.
600
00:26:38,229 --> 00:26:41,533
Lift up on the boom
a little bit more.
601
00:26:42,734 --> 00:26:44,636
Yeah, bring 'er right over.
602
00:26:47,238 --> 00:26:50,442
Yeah, keep 'er going,
keep 'er going.
603
00:26:50,442 --> 00:26:52,744
Keep 'er going, buddy.
604
00:26:56,381 --> 00:26:58,316
Bill, you can start
lifting up a little bit
605
00:26:58,316 --> 00:26:59,317
on the drives.
606
00:27:00,719 --> 00:27:03,088
-Now?
-Yes, Billy.
607
00:27:03,088 --> 00:27:05,390
[Narrator] ...but as Bill
preps for the move,
608
00:27:05,390 --> 00:27:07,258
he sees that the space
609
00:27:07,258 --> 00:27:09,327
is too confined.
610
00:27:09,327 --> 00:27:10,428
[Bill] It's gonna be tight
611
00:27:10,428 --> 00:27:12,263
to pull that out into...
beside him, eh?
612
00:27:12,263 --> 00:27:14,232
[Shawn] We're gonna
have to make sure she, like,
613
00:27:14,232 --> 00:27:15,400
the front end swings, right?
614
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:16,901
So you're gonna
have to jackknife it a lot.
615
00:27:16,901 --> 00:27:18,069
Yep.
616
00:27:18,069 --> 00:27:18,970
[Shawn] The further
I've spaced the trucks,
617
00:27:18,970 --> 00:27:20,238
the harder it is for me
618
00:27:20,238 --> 00:27:21,906
to have boom strength,
619
00:27:21,906 --> 00:27:23,308
and be able to actually
lift the truck
620
00:27:23,308 --> 00:27:24,809
completely off the ground.
621
00:27:25,810 --> 00:27:28,980
[Narrator] So Bill will have
to sharply angle the tractor
622
00:27:28,980 --> 00:27:30,649
to get it into place.
623
00:27:30,649 --> 00:27:32,450
-You good, Billy?
-Yeah.
624
00:27:32,450 --> 00:27:33,752
[Shawn] Slowly, boys.
Slowly, yeah.
625
00:27:40,792 --> 00:27:43,361
Boom up, boom up,
boom up, boom up.
626
00:27:43,361 --> 00:27:44,963
Okay, whoa. Boom out now.
627
00:27:46,931 --> 00:27:48,667
Whoa, whoa.
628
00:27:48,667 --> 00:27:49,801
All right, James,
629
00:27:49,801 --> 00:27:51,703
you have to boom up, James,
630
00:27:51,703 --> 00:27:53,171
until you clear that leg.
631
00:27:53,171 --> 00:27:55,774
Loosen up on your red
a little bit.
632
00:27:55,774 --> 00:27:58,276
It just didn't want
to fit in between.
633
00:27:59,144 --> 00:28:00,512
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
634
00:28:00,512 --> 00:28:02,981
Uh, okay, we'll go
the other way around instead.
635
00:28:02,981 --> 00:28:04,516
[Shawn] The live lane
636
00:28:04,516 --> 00:28:05,684
is literally
right up against me,
637
00:28:05,684 --> 00:28:07,819
and chewing up the cones.
638
00:28:13,625 --> 00:28:15,293
Okay, whoa, whoa, whoa.
639
00:28:17,162 --> 00:28:20,331
You're right in the lane
with your boom.
640
00:28:21,700 --> 00:28:24,035
Move over.
641
00:28:24,035 --> 00:28:26,838
Whoa. Whoa, boys.
642
00:28:26,838 --> 00:28:28,073
[groaning]
643
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:30,709
[Bill]
We don't have enough room.
644
00:28:30,709 --> 00:28:32,744
The back of the trailer
is sticking out into traffic.
645
00:28:32,744 --> 00:28:33,745
We can't have that.
646
00:28:39,150 --> 00:28:41,252
This job is going sideways
for me right now,
647
00:28:41,252 --> 00:28:44,222
like, very badly.
648
00:28:54,199 --> 00:28:55,834
[Narrator]
500 kilometres west...
649
00:28:57,235 --> 00:29:01,039
James Ireland is on the move.
650
00:29:01,039 --> 00:29:03,608
We're on our way down
to a loaded four-axle
651
00:29:03,608 --> 00:29:04,776
flatbed trailer,
652
00:29:04,776 --> 00:29:08,012
in the ditch,
up against a hydro pole.
653
00:29:08,012 --> 00:29:10,815
[Narrator] Rescue 51's lead op
654
00:29:10,815 --> 00:29:13,051
is leaving the highway behind,
655
00:29:13,051 --> 00:29:15,887
heading to a scene
in a tough spot.
656
00:29:18,690 --> 00:29:21,025
[James] Here's this
four-axle trailer
657
00:29:21,025 --> 00:29:22,894
with 80,000 pounds
of lumber on it,
658
00:29:22,894 --> 00:29:25,363
and it's leaning hard
against a power pole.
659
00:29:25,363 --> 00:29:27,799
You can already see
the load has shifted.
660
00:29:27,799 --> 00:29:30,235
This is gonna be
a challenging job.
661
00:29:30,235 --> 00:29:32,070
And away we go.
662
00:29:33,138 --> 00:29:35,273
Another cold day in paradise.
663
00:29:35,273 --> 00:29:36,641
[chuckles]
664
00:29:36,641 --> 00:29:38,076
Hey!
665
00:29:38,076 --> 00:29:40,945
[Narrator] James is answering
the call for help
666
00:29:40,945 --> 00:29:43,915
from Steve Cooke
of Lewis Heavy Towing.
667
00:29:43,915 --> 00:29:45,483
[James] We have a very good
working relationship.
668
00:29:45,483 --> 00:29:47,585
Whenever he needs a rotator,
he calls.
669
00:29:47,585 --> 00:29:49,621
We do a lot of towing
back and forth.
670
00:29:49,621 --> 00:29:50,922
We do quite a few
wrecks together.
671
00:29:50,922 --> 00:29:52,590
[James] So we'll have to go
from this side
672
00:29:52,590 --> 00:29:53,725
all the way around, then.
673
00:29:53,725 --> 00:29:56,227
[Steve] I called James
on this recovery
674
00:29:56,227 --> 00:29:58,229
because it helps out
having the rotator there
675
00:29:58,229 --> 00:29:59,998
because it's a tight corner
to work in.
676
00:29:59,998 --> 00:30:02,100
It's only a two-lane back road.
677
00:30:03,268 --> 00:30:04,602
[Narrator] ...and there's
an even bigger problem
678
00:30:04,602 --> 00:30:06,971
with the location of the crash.
679
00:30:06,971 --> 00:30:08,173
We'll see what happens,
680
00:30:08,173 --> 00:30:10,108
but we got a lotta weight
we're playing with here
681
00:30:10,108 --> 00:30:11,342
against that hydro pole, so...
682
00:30:11,342 --> 00:30:14,112
[James] Ultimately, the pole
683
00:30:14,112 --> 00:30:15,814
is the only thing
holding this load up.
684
00:30:15,814 --> 00:30:19,217
[Narrator] So they need to
consult with the power utility
685
00:30:19,217 --> 00:30:21,186
before they make a single move.
686
00:30:22,887 --> 00:30:24,289
Yep.
687
00:30:36,801 --> 00:30:39,070
[James] They're not
gonna shut the hydro off.
688
00:30:39,070 --> 00:30:40,672
The hydro guy's assured us
689
00:30:40,672 --> 00:30:42,240
that that 44,000-volt line,
690
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:43,808
if something does take place,
691
00:30:43,808 --> 00:30:46,010
within a second, it's off.
692
00:30:46,010 --> 00:30:47,312
I guess we'll see.
693
00:30:48,446 --> 00:30:49,781
[Steve] 44,000 volts?
694
00:30:49,781 --> 00:30:51,983
We definitely wanna make sure
we rig this one right.
695
00:30:51,983 --> 00:30:55,453
What I'd like to do
is put two straps here,
696
00:30:55,453 --> 00:30:56,688
one for each bundle.
697
00:30:56,688 --> 00:30:59,023
Then I want your truck
back here
698
00:30:59,023 --> 00:31:00,391
taking a good bit of weight
on an angle
699
00:31:00,391 --> 00:31:01,860
to help it slide.
700
00:31:01,860 --> 00:31:04,829
[Narrator]
All 80,000 pounds of lumber
701
00:31:04,829 --> 00:31:06,397
has stayed strapped on,
702
00:31:06,397 --> 00:31:08,066
just barely.
703
00:31:08,066 --> 00:31:11,870
So James wants both wreckers
tackling the trailer,
704
00:31:11,870 --> 00:31:14,839
but that leaves them lacking
up front.
705
00:31:14,839 --> 00:31:16,908
I'm only worried about
that tractor sliding in.
706
00:31:16,908 --> 00:31:17,909
Yeah.
707
00:31:17,909 --> 00:31:19,477
Once we start tugging this way,
708
00:31:19,477 --> 00:31:21,212
if that wants to shoot in,
709
00:31:21,212 --> 00:31:22,547
then we're gonna
have a problem.
710
00:31:22,547 --> 00:31:24,482
If the tractor moves
and goes in the ditch,
711
00:31:24,482 --> 00:31:25,850
this whole thing's
gonna roll over.
712
00:31:26,684 --> 00:31:29,821
[Narrator]
They need more help.
713
00:31:29,821 --> 00:31:31,589
Okay, so fire up the 20-tonne.
714
00:31:31,589 --> 00:31:32,924
You're gonna
come down here too.
715
00:31:32,924 --> 00:31:36,327
We've decided that we're gonna
call for another truck
716
00:31:36,327 --> 00:31:37,862
to come in and hold the tractor.
717
00:31:37,862 --> 00:31:41,399
We are going to have
our 20-tonne as well,
718
00:31:41,399 --> 00:31:43,334
just to hold it for us,
for safety.
719
00:31:44,402 --> 00:31:46,070
[Steve] I don't wanna
have this thing halfway up,
720
00:31:46,070 --> 00:31:47,205
and then go over.
721
00:31:47,205 --> 00:31:50,008
[James]
If this power pole breaks,
722
00:31:50,008 --> 00:31:51,376
we're gonna have
a load of lumber
723
00:31:51,376 --> 00:31:52,877
laying on its side in a ditch,
724
00:31:52,877 --> 00:31:56,781
and we got 44,000 volts
straight above us.
725
00:31:56,781 --> 00:31:59,284
[Steve] If it slides
six inches, we're screwed.
726
00:31:59,284 --> 00:32:00,251
It's taking the rest of it
and the pole.
727
00:32:06,524 --> 00:32:08,960
[Shawn]
You're right in the lane.
728
00:32:10,828 --> 00:32:13,631
[Narrator] At the eastern end
of the 401 in Ingleside...
729
00:32:13,631 --> 00:32:16,234
[Bill] We need
a good 10 feet between.
730
00:32:16,234 --> 00:32:18,469
[Narrator]
...after a long struggle,
731
00:32:18,469 --> 00:32:22,073
Shawn's plan to wrangle
the semi into place
732
00:32:22,073 --> 00:32:23,908
still refuses to work.
733
00:32:24,876 --> 00:32:27,578
[Shawn] Oh, what the hell
is going on?
734
00:32:27,578 --> 00:32:28,913
If I would have
had more room,
735
00:32:28,913 --> 00:32:30,982
the live lane wouldn't have
been an issue,
736
00:32:30,982 --> 00:32:32,684
but because I've got to put it
737
00:32:32,684 --> 00:32:34,719
in so much of a tight spot,
738
00:32:34,719 --> 00:32:36,587
I was trying to thread
that needle a little too much
739
00:32:36,587 --> 00:32:38,523
for what it should have been.
740
00:32:38,523 --> 00:32:40,024
Okay...
741
00:32:40,892 --> 00:32:44,662
There's a point where
you need to stop and think,
742
00:32:44,662 --> 00:32:45,930
"This isn't working,
743
00:32:45,930 --> 00:32:48,866
maybe I should rethink it."
744
00:32:48,866 --> 00:32:50,768
There's nothing wrong
with saying,
745
00:32:50,768 --> 00:32:52,570
"Let's put it down
and reposition."
746
00:32:53,571 --> 00:32:56,074
[Narrator]
They need to open more room
747
00:32:56,074 --> 00:32:58,209
between the rotators.
748
00:32:58,209 --> 00:33:00,979
We're gonna
pick it right up...
749
00:33:00,979 --> 00:33:03,348
Just go far enough
that we can get it out.
750
00:33:04,449 --> 00:33:05,917
[Bill]
So now we're gonna drop it,
751
00:33:05,917 --> 00:33:08,086
and move the 50-tonne
further ahead
752
00:33:08,086 --> 00:33:09,187
so we can actually lift it
753
00:33:09,187 --> 00:33:10,421
and bring it back into the lane.
754
00:33:10,421 --> 00:33:13,024
-Everybody's clear?
-Yeah.
755
00:33:13,024 --> 00:33:16,527
[Narrator] It's a vital lesson
for a new leader.
756
00:33:16,527 --> 00:33:18,396
[Shawn] Definitely
part of the learning curve
757
00:33:18,396 --> 00:33:20,965
to maybe not be afraid
to switch plans
758
00:33:20,965 --> 00:33:21,966
a lot quicker
759
00:33:21,966 --> 00:33:23,201
if ever the first one
isn't working.
760
00:33:26,070 --> 00:33:27,238
Okay.
761
00:33:27,238 --> 00:33:28,539
Snug those up.
762
00:33:29,407 --> 00:33:32,310
Plan now is
we're gonna lift 'er square
763
00:33:32,310 --> 00:33:33,411
and bring 'er all the way back
764
00:33:33,411 --> 00:33:34,879
right to Mama
where she needs to be.
765
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,983
[Narrator] So they'll pull
the back end into position
766
00:33:38,983 --> 00:33:41,219
before moving in the tractor.
767
00:33:42,253 --> 00:33:43,254
[Shawn] Okay,
you're gonna start lifting
768
00:33:43,254 --> 00:33:44,989
very, very slightly, James.
769
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,496
[Narrator] ...but the new plan
770
00:33:51,496 --> 00:33:54,665
hinges on being able
to weave the truck
771
00:33:54,665 --> 00:33:58,002
around the barrier.
772
00:33:58,002 --> 00:33:59,737
[Shawn] Keep lifting.
773
00:33:59,737 --> 00:34:01,572
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
774
00:34:01,572 --> 00:34:04,475
Just go slowly.
-Yeah.
775
00:34:09,113 --> 00:34:10,348
[Bill] We only need to pull
a few more feet,
776
00:34:10,348 --> 00:34:12,517
then I can swing this right out.
777
00:34:13,851 --> 00:34:15,319
Look at that.
778
00:34:15,319 --> 00:34:17,855
That looks a lot nicer.
779
00:34:18,990 --> 00:34:21,759
[Narrator] ...but just as
the plan seems to be
780
00:34:21,759 --> 00:34:23,861
on the verge of success...
781
00:34:23,861 --> 00:34:26,164
Holy, she's white out now.
782
00:34:26,164 --> 00:34:31,135
[Narrator] ...the weather
unleashes its own plan.
783
00:34:31,135 --> 00:34:33,137
A little bit of a snow squall
right now.
784
00:34:33,137 --> 00:34:35,139
It's pretty bad.
785
00:34:36,174 --> 00:34:37,542
[Shawn] This snow squall
is so bad
786
00:34:37,542 --> 00:34:39,177
that I'm worried that somebody's
gonna plow into us.
787
00:34:41,112 --> 00:34:43,381
[Narrator] ...but after
learning the ropes from Andrew,
788
00:34:43,381 --> 00:34:46,551
Bill spots a chance
to speed up the move.
789
00:34:47,518 --> 00:34:48,719
[Bill] If he drops the trailer,
790
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:50,054
I can bring this right over.
791
00:34:50,054 --> 00:34:51,656
-Okay.
-I've got the room.
792
00:34:52,890 --> 00:34:54,325
-Just stay where you are.
-Yeah.
793
00:35:11,476 --> 00:35:14,378
Okay, hold.
794
00:35:30,361 --> 00:35:32,029
We're out, boys!
795
00:35:32,029 --> 00:35:33,731
[James] Yes, sir.
796
00:35:34,999 --> 00:35:37,768
[Shawn] There was a little few
adjustments that we had to do
797
00:35:37,768 --> 00:35:39,737
to get her where
we wanted, but...
798
00:35:39,737 --> 00:35:41,105
she, uh, she came out.
799
00:35:41,939 --> 00:35:43,374
Keep 'er coming,
keep 'er coming.
800
00:35:46,010 --> 00:35:47,378
[Shawn] I've got
a lot of respect for Bill.
801
00:35:47,378 --> 00:35:49,313
You know, I can feed
off of his experience
802
00:35:49,313 --> 00:35:50,414
for me to gain mine.
803
00:35:52,950 --> 00:35:55,153
Okay. You can back up.
804
00:35:56,454 --> 00:35:59,056
[Narrator] It didn't all
go according to plan...
805
00:35:59,056 --> 00:36:00,625
Keep coming.
806
00:36:00,625 --> 00:36:02,226
Okay, whoa.
807
00:36:02,226 --> 00:36:04,629
Teamwork
makes the dream work, baby.
808
00:36:04,629 --> 00:36:05,796
[Narrator] ...but for Shawn,
809
00:36:05,796 --> 00:36:09,734
the challenges came
with an important reward.
810
00:36:09,734 --> 00:36:11,769
[Shawn] At the end of the day,
a win's a win,
811
00:36:11,769 --> 00:36:14,038
and, you know, I learned a lot,
and that's what counts.
812
00:36:14,038 --> 00:36:15,606
[laughing]
813
00:36:15,606 --> 00:36:16,641
Okay.
814
00:36:16,641 --> 00:36:18,643
Yeah, buddy.
815
00:36:18,643 --> 00:36:20,278
[honks horn three times]
816
00:36:38,996 --> 00:36:40,932
[Steve] If it slides
six inches, we're screwed.
817
00:36:40,932 --> 00:36:43,167
It's taking the rest of it
and the pole.
818
00:36:43,167 --> 00:36:45,503
[Narrator] Back in Tottenham,
819
00:36:45,503 --> 00:36:48,105
the heavy load
is still teetering,
820
00:36:48,105 --> 00:36:52,410
so James has put out the call
for another truck.
821
00:36:52,410 --> 00:36:53,444
Fire up the 20-tonne.
822
00:36:53,444 --> 00:36:55,279
You're gonna
come down here, too.
823
00:36:56,447 --> 00:36:58,349
[Narrator]
...and the 20-tonne wrecker
824
00:36:58,349 --> 00:36:59,984
is on the way to answer.
825
00:36:59,984 --> 00:37:02,787
It's the newest addition
to the fleet...
826
00:37:02,787 --> 00:37:04,956
[Fabiana] I'm so excited.
827
00:37:04,956 --> 00:37:05,957
[Narrator]
...and the first wrecker
828
00:37:05,957 --> 00:37:08,826
that company co-owner
Fabiana Ireland
829
00:37:08,826 --> 00:37:10,661
can call her own.
830
00:37:10,661 --> 00:37:13,998
This is one of my first jobs
out in my own truck.
831
00:37:13,998 --> 00:37:16,834
Nervous and exciting
at the same time.
832
00:37:18,502 --> 00:37:19,670
It's blue and yellow,
833
00:37:19,670 --> 00:37:22,039
and it looks cool.
834
00:37:22,039 --> 00:37:23,808
[laughs]
835
00:37:23,808 --> 00:37:25,610
[Narrator] The couple
bought the new truck
836
00:37:25,610 --> 00:37:27,511
just this past summer,
837
00:37:27,511 --> 00:37:31,816
and specially personalized it
for its new operator.
838
00:37:31,816 --> 00:37:34,118
-Want to put it on?
-Sure.
839
00:37:34,118 --> 00:37:35,286
[tool rattling]
840
00:37:38,155 --> 00:37:39,690
[James] Awesome.
841
00:37:42,326 --> 00:37:43,828
[Fabiana]
We got a truck for me,
842
00:37:43,828 --> 00:37:45,196
a 20-tonne NRC,
843
00:37:45,196 --> 00:37:47,531
and that's gonna be my baby
that I'm gonna be driving.
844
00:37:47,531 --> 00:37:49,667
It looks awesome.
845
00:37:49,667 --> 00:37:50,868
[Narrator] It's a step towards
846
00:37:50,868 --> 00:37:53,004
having as big a role on the road
847
00:37:53,004 --> 00:37:56,407
as she has
in running the business.
848
00:37:58,209 --> 00:37:59,644
Heads up.
849
00:38:00,845 --> 00:38:02,079
[Fabiana] This is
a hundred times better
850
00:38:02,079 --> 00:38:03,147
than being in the office.
851
00:38:05,149 --> 00:38:06,751
[James] Things are
coming together here now.
852
00:38:06,751 --> 00:38:08,753
We got all three trucks here.
853
00:38:08,753 --> 00:38:11,322
We're good
to get setting up.
854
00:38:12,523 --> 00:38:13,758
So what's the plan?
855
00:38:13,758 --> 00:38:14,925
What are you guys doing?
856
00:38:14,925 --> 00:38:16,093
So, you're holding.
857
00:38:16,093 --> 00:38:17,428
My two mains
are going over there
858
00:38:17,428 --> 00:38:18,696
to pull the load
and pull the trailer.
859
00:38:18,696 --> 00:38:20,765
Two auxiliaries
down underneath
860
00:38:20,765 --> 00:38:22,667
to pull sideways.
861
00:38:22,667 --> 00:38:24,201
Steve is gonna be back here
lifting,
862
00:38:24,201 --> 00:38:27,004
and then we can also
use his drag winch to pull
863
00:38:27,004 --> 00:38:28,339
if we need to.
864
00:38:29,907 --> 00:38:32,176
[Narrator] Fabiana
will hold the tractor
865
00:38:32,176 --> 00:38:34,211
to keep it from rolling,
866
00:38:34,211 --> 00:38:35,946
while Steve lifts the back
867
00:38:35,946 --> 00:38:38,015
and James pulls sideways,
868
00:38:38,015 --> 00:38:40,251
keeping the load secure.
869
00:38:42,420 --> 00:38:44,188
-Ready?
-Yeah.
870
00:38:46,524 --> 00:38:47,358
Okay!
871
00:38:48,759 --> 00:38:49,894
You outta the way?
872
00:38:49,894 --> 00:38:51,128
[Fabiana] Yeah, it's good.
873
00:38:51,128 --> 00:38:52,463
We're a little concerned
with this load,
874
00:38:52,463 --> 00:38:55,599
the way it's leaning over
like that.
875
00:38:55,599 --> 00:38:57,068
[James] If we have
one slip of rigging,
876
00:38:57,068 --> 00:38:59,203
and these bundles of lumber
hit the power pole,
877
00:38:59,203 --> 00:39:00,538
it's gonna snap it,
878
00:39:00,538 --> 00:39:02,740
and we're gonna have
huge problems.
879
00:39:02,740 --> 00:39:04,542
If you see me running,
try to keep up.
880
00:39:05,576 --> 00:39:06,911
Ready, Freddy?
881
00:39:06,911 --> 00:39:07,912
[James]
If we make a mistake here,
882
00:39:07,912 --> 00:39:09,747
and this pole breaks,
883
00:39:09,747 --> 00:39:12,049
things aren't gonna be good.
884
00:39:12,049 --> 00:39:13,084
All right, here we go.
885
00:39:22,793 --> 00:39:24,495
[Steve] She's sliding there.
886
00:39:25,930 --> 00:39:28,432
Give it a little tension
there, Steve, on yours.
887
00:39:29,633 --> 00:39:31,402
The only concern would be
that bundle in the back.
888
00:39:31,402 --> 00:39:33,304
It's moving quite a bit.
889
00:39:33,304 --> 00:39:35,072
Hopefully it holds.
890
00:39:35,072 --> 00:39:37,575
[James] Take a little, Steve.
891
00:39:38,776 --> 00:39:39,677
Oh, look at it.
892
00:39:39,677 --> 00:39:40,644
It just jumped sideways.
893
00:39:40,644 --> 00:39:42,780
[Steve] Yeah, I got 31 on it.
894
00:39:43,981 --> 00:39:44,949
[James] Look at that.
895
00:39:51,756 --> 00:39:53,290
[Steve] Bring it.
896
00:39:53,290 --> 00:39:56,293
You're slack on the back.
897
00:39:56,293 --> 00:39:57,995
[James] It's working, right?
898
00:39:57,995 --> 00:39:59,630
This front end's
not going to start going?
899
00:39:59,630 --> 00:40:02,299
Hopefully not. That's why
you're hooked to it.
900
00:40:02,299 --> 00:40:04,535
Go ahead, Steve.
901
00:40:09,373 --> 00:40:11,142
Okay, hold on, Steve.
902
00:40:12,643 --> 00:40:14,011
I'm just having a hard time
903
00:40:14,011 --> 00:40:15,045
running all four
at the same time here.
904
00:40:15,045 --> 00:40:16,380
No, that's fine.
Take your time.
905
00:40:16,380 --> 00:40:19,150
[James] I just don't like
this one bundle.
906
00:40:19,150 --> 00:40:22,319
If something broke now,
we would be in trouble.
907
00:40:22,319 --> 00:40:26,190
[shifting and popping]
908
00:40:29,860 --> 00:40:30,861
-Oh [bleep].
-[popping]
909
00:40:33,364 --> 00:40:34,965
[popping and shifting]
910
00:40:40,004 --> 00:40:41,439
[James] Okay, Steve,
hold on, Steve.
911
00:40:41,439 --> 00:40:42,506
Don't take any more, Steve.
912
00:40:42,506 --> 00:40:44,275
[Steve] No more for me?
913
00:40:44,275 --> 00:40:46,977
[Narrator] On a narrow road
outside of Tottenham,
914
00:40:46,977 --> 00:40:49,980
James is trying to slide
the trailer
915
00:40:49,980 --> 00:40:52,283
without sliding its load.
916
00:40:52,283 --> 00:40:53,951
The front
hasn't moved, Fabiana?
917
00:40:53,951 --> 00:40:56,720
No, I'm still nice and tight.
918
00:40:58,722 --> 00:41:01,559
We'll go a little more
on your other side there.
919
00:41:01,559 --> 00:41:03,160
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
920
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:06,664
Okay. Oh, there's that bundle
coming back.
921
00:41:08,332 --> 00:41:09,366
Want red down a bit?
922
00:41:09,366 --> 00:41:10,334
-Yeah.
-That's good.
923
00:41:10,334 --> 00:41:11,168
Good?
924
00:41:11,168 --> 00:41:13,170
That's good.
925
00:41:14,205 --> 00:41:15,473
[Narrator]
They've got the trailer
926
00:41:15,473 --> 00:41:17,575
straddling the road...
927
00:41:17,575 --> 00:41:19,243
Let's do that rear bundle now.
928
00:41:19,243 --> 00:41:22,346
[Narrator] ...but it's not safe
to drive away.
929
00:41:22,346 --> 00:41:25,082
I wouldn't drive this truck
down a road the way it is,
930
00:41:25,082 --> 00:41:26,684
because ultimately,
it's over width now,
931
00:41:26,684 --> 00:41:29,053
because the bundles
are on too much of an angle.
932
00:41:29,053 --> 00:41:30,721
We just gotta straighten up,
933
00:41:30,721 --> 00:41:33,924
straighten up the load
a little bit.
934
00:41:33,924 --> 00:41:35,359
[Fabiana]
We have to stabilize the load.
935
00:41:35,359 --> 00:41:36,393
We have to move it,
936
00:41:36,393 --> 00:41:37,928
centre it so that it's safe.
937
00:41:38,996 --> 00:41:40,397
-Okay?
-Yup.
938
00:41:40,397 --> 00:41:42,933
Pull.
939
00:41:44,034 --> 00:41:45,102
It's coming.
940
00:41:45,102 --> 00:41:46,937
Coming.
941
00:41:46,937 --> 00:41:49,440
It's coming.
942
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:51,175
Whoa.
943
00:41:51,175 --> 00:41:53,277
[James] We gotta get
right around the back of it.
944
00:41:53,277 --> 00:41:54,912
[Steve] Yeah.
945
00:41:54,912 --> 00:41:57,515
[Narrator] With the cargo
strapped together,
946
00:41:57,515 --> 00:42:00,084
as James tries to slide
the skewed bundle,
947
00:42:00,084 --> 00:42:03,020
the entire load
is fighting him....
948
00:42:03,020 --> 00:42:04,889
[James] Pulling's
clearly not working
949
00:42:04,889 --> 00:42:06,223
at getting
these bundles straight.
950
00:42:06,223 --> 00:42:09,026
[Narrator] ...but the crew's
newest operator
951
00:42:09,026 --> 00:42:11,629
might have a solution.
952
00:42:11,629 --> 00:42:13,430
[Fabiana] Can't you lift it,
the bundle?
953
00:42:13,430 --> 00:42:14,732
[James] I could lift it.
954
00:42:14,732 --> 00:42:16,767
We might have to, eh?
955
00:42:16,767 --> 00:42:18,235
Because of that.
-To centre it,
956
00:42:18,235 --> 00:42:19,103
because you're not gonna
be able to...
957
00:42:19,103 --> 00:42:20,471
You wanna, then?
958
00:42:20,471 --> 00:42:22,239
We'll just put a strap around
the back, and-- [whistles]
959
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:23,474
Yeah, I think
that's what we gotta do.
960
00:42:23,474 --> 00:42:24,475
Okay.
961
00:42:24,475 --> 00:42:26,143
Loosen up.
962
00:42:26,143 --> 00:42:27,344
[Fabiana]
They were pulling sideways,
963
00:42:27,344 --> 00:42:28,946
and it was moving the back also,
964
00:42:28,946 --> 00:42:29,880
and we don't want that,
965
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:30,881
so we want to centre it,
966
00:42:30,881 --> 00:42:32,316
so better just to lift it
967
00:42:32,316 --> 00:42:34,084
and centre it properly.
968
00:42:34,084 --> 00:42:36,887
I'm sure one of them
would've come up with that idea
969
00:42:36,887 --> 00:42:39,323
at some point.
970
00:42:39,323 --> 00:42:41,258
[James] The more
she comes out with us,
971
00:42:41,258 --> 00:42:43,527
the more different things
that she sees happening...
972
00:42:43,527 --> 00:42:44,728
Okay.
973
00:42:44,728 --> 00:42:47,164
[James] ...and, you know,
it's a great idea.
974
00:42:50,301 --> 00:42:51,902
Okay.
975
00:42:55,906 --> 00:42:57,541
Keep going.
976
00:42:57,541 --> 00:42:59,076
This is working out
really good.
977
00:42:59,076 --> 00:43:00,411
More, Steve?
978
00:43:00,411 --> 00:43:01,812
[Steve] Little more.
979
00:43:04,448 --> 00:43:05,816
We're good there, James.
980
00:43:05,816 --> 00:43:07,518
[James] Yeah, that's good.
981
00:43:07,518 --> 00:43:09,320
We're gonna get on the front
982
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,422
and pull the whole thing
up outta here.
983
00:43:11,422 --> 00:43:13,424
One final pull here.
984
00:43:14,592 --> 00:43:17,828
[Narrator] ...and to make
this one final pull,
985
00:43:17,828 --> 00:43:19,530
there's only one candidate.
986
00:43:19,530 --> 00:43:20,864
[James] It's Fabiana's
time to shine.
987
00:43:20,864 --> 00:43:22,333
Let's see if she can
get this tractor
988
00:43:22,333 --> 00:43:23,300
back out on the road.
989
00:43:23,300 --> 00:43:24,868
Okay, guys, watch out.
990
00:43:26,270 --> 00:43:27,204
Go.
991
00:43:28,138 --> 00:43:30,541
Here it comes.
992
00:43:31,542 --> 00:43:33,143
Go, go, go, go!
993
00:43:33,143 --> 00:43:34,678
[laughing]
994
00:43:37,715 --> 00:43:38,716
Keep going.
995
00:43:45,823 --> 00:43:49,360
Okay! Unhook.
996
00:43:52,496 --> 00:43:53,530
[James] No damage,
997
00:43:53,530 --> 00:43:54,999
the customer
gets to deliver the load.
998
00:43:54,999 --> 00:43:58,469
It's a good day when we all
get to work together.
999
00:43:58,469 --> 00:43:59,570
This was great teamwork
1000
00:43:59,570 --> 00:44:01,372
by three different
operators here.
1001
00:44:02,339 --> 00:44:04,074
This job went very well.
1002
00:44:05,009 --> 00:44:05,876
[Steve] Customer's happy,
1003
00:44:05,876 --> 00:44:07,211
and he's on his way.
1004
00:44:07,211 --> 00:44:08,312
Everything went textbook.
1005
00:44:08,312 --> 00:44:10,180
It was perfect.
1006
00:44:10,180 --> 00:44:11,782
We spend time over-rigging,
1007
00:44:11,782 --> 00:44:13,417
that way we do it once,
1008
00:44:13,417 --> 00:44:17,888
and it always pays off
in the long run.
1009
00:44:17,888 --> 00:44:19,189
Good job, bud.
1010
00:44:19,189 --> 00:44:20,357
Awesome, man.
That was great.
1011
00:44:20,357 --> 00:44:21,925
-Good work, Fabiana.
-Good job.
1012
00:44:21,925 --> 00:44:23,260
Till the next one, right?
1013
00:44:23,260 --> 00:44:24,428
-Okay, see you guys.
-Bye!
1014
00:44:24,428 --> 00:44:26,063
[Fabiana] Being out here,
helping the boys,
1015
00:44:26,063 --> 00:44:27,031
it's always great,
1016
00:44:27,031 --> 00:44:28,699
and, you know,
it builds my confidence,
1017
00:44:28,699 --> 00:44:30,067
and I think, you know,
1018
00:44:30,067 --> 00:44:31,769
I'm learning more every day.
1019
00:44:31,769 --> 00:44:33,871
Hopefully, one day,
1020
00:44:33,871 --> 00:44:35,639
I'll be able to do this
on my own.
1021
00:44:35,639 --> 00:44:37,541
On to the next one.
1022
00:44:37,541 --> 00:44:39,243
Anything but the office!
1023
00:44:52,456 --> 00:44:56,226
[Narrator] Next time
on Heavy Rescue: 401...
1024
00:44:56,226 --> 00:44:58,095
[man] All our plans
have not worked.
1025
00:44:58,095 --> 00:44:59,196
[Narrator] ...a bold idea...
1026
00:44:59,196 --> 00:45:00,097
[Kabal] Don't look this way!
1027
00:45:00,097 --> 00:45:01,265
Look the other way!
1028
00:45:01,265 --> 00:45:02,433
Go, go!
1029
00:45:03,734 --> 00:45:05,135
[Narrator]
...comes crashing down.
1030
00:45:06,670 --> 00:45:08,706
Whoo!
Did you see that truck?
1031
00:45:08,706 --> 00:45:09,973
[Narrator]
A friendly competition...
1032
00:45:11,975 --> 00:45:14,044
[Narrator] ...turns dangerous.
1033
00:45:14,044 --> 00:45:15,279
[Duncan] Nobody's slowing down.
1034
00:45:15,279 --> 00:45:16,647
[Narrator]
...and challenging terrain...
1035
00:45:16,647 --> 00:45:18,315
-Whoa!
-Whoa! Whoa.
1036
00:45:18,315 --> 00:45:19,783
[Narrator] ...defies the crew.
1037
00:45:19,783 --> 00:45:20,617
[Collin] Well, that's not good.
1038
00:45:22,486 --> 00:45:24,988
