00:00:01,134 --> 00:00:03,269
[Narrator] This time
on Heavy Rescue: 401...
2
00:00:05,605 --> 00:00:07,107
[Narrator] ...closed highway...
3
00:00:09,042 --> 00:00:10,944
[Narrator] ...raises tensions.
4
00:00:10,944 --> 00:00:12,779
Go on! Get!
5
00:00:12,779 --> 00:00:14,080
Go!
6
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:16,583
[Narrator]
A challenging load
7
00:00:16,583 --> 00:00:18,284
fights back...
8
00:00:19,552 --> 00:00:20,520
Whoa.
9
00:00:21,921 --> 00:00:23,523
[Narrator]
...and Gary and Collin...
10
00:00:23,523 --> 00:00:25,592
[Gary] Never had
this many vehicles on its side
11
00:00:25,592 --> 00:00:26,559
in one location.
12
00:00:26,559 --> 00:00:28,294
[Narrator]
...face the biggest test.
13
00:00:28,294 --> 00:00:30,163
[Collin]
It's gonna be a pain.
14
00:00:49,015 --> 00:00:50,417
[Narrator]
A ridge of high pressure
15
00:00:50,417 --> 00:00:52,585
is giving drivers in Toronto
16
00:00:52,585 --> 00:00:55,088
an early preview of spring...
17
00:00:59,359 --> 00:01:03,063
[Narrator] ...but after
months of snow, some...
18
00:01:03,063 --> 00:01:05,432
are hitting the gas
a little too hard.
19
00:01:10,870 --> 00:01:12,138
[Narrator] High speeds
20
00:01:12,138 --> 00:01:14,340
put police on high alert.
21
00:01:14,340 --> 00:01:15,575
[sirens wailing]
22
00:01:22,615 --> 00:01:26,352
On days like today,
we get a lot of crashes.
23
00:01:26,352 --> 00:01:27,921
They get going
a little too fast,
24
00:01:27,921 --> 00:01:29,289
not paying attention.
25
00:01:30,457 --> 00:01:32,092
[Narrator] On the western
edge of the city,
26
00:01:32,092 --> 00:01:34,961
veteran constable John Hominsky
27
00:01:34,961 --> 00:01:40,266
is ready for whatever
the 401 throws his way.
28
00:01:40,266 --> 00:01:41,234
We go to the serious incidents
29
00:01:41,234 --> 00:01:42,368
that occur on the highway.
30
00:01:42,368 --> 00:01:43,870
If there's nothing going on,
31
00:01:43,870 --> 00:01:46,039
then just kind of roll out
and do some enforcement.
32
00:01:46,039 --> 00:01:48,174
You know, speeding,
cell phones,
33
00:01:48,174 --> 00:01:49,242
aggressive driving.
34
00:01:50,376 --> 00:01:51,344
[Narrator] Today,
35
00:01:51,344 --> 00:01:55,248
he's expecting to see speed...
36
00:01:55,248 --> 00:01:57,383
[Hominsky] Pretty unexpected.
37
00:01:57,383 --> 00:01:59,919
[Narrator]
...but what catches his eye
38
00:01:59,919 --> 00:02:01,621
is just the opposite.
39
00:02:01,621 --> 00:02:03,423
We're doing
60 kilometres an hour.
40
00:02:03,423 --> 00:02:05,058
It's posted 100.
41
00:02:05,058 --> 00:02:06,559
It's just a hazard
waiting to happen.
42
00:02:06,559 --> 00:02:07,560
[siren chirps]
43
00:02:08,495 --> 00:02:09,829
[Hominsky] Speeding is bad,
44
00:02:09,829 --> 00:02:10,997
but if you're going too slow,
45
00:02:10,997 --> 00:02:14,601
it's also very dangerous.
46
00:02:14,601 --> 00:02:15,802
You're going to get run into.
47
00:02:15,802 --> 00:02:17,570
Hi, how are you, sir?
48
00:02:17,570 --> 00:02:18,805
The reason I'm stopping
49
00:02:18,805 --> 00:02:19,806
is just because you were doing
50
00:02:19,806 --> 00:02:22,909
about 65, 70 kilometres an hour
51
00:02:22,909 --> 00:02:24,310
out in the left lane there.
52
00:02:24,310 --> 00:02:26,980
You need to be driving
either in the slower lanes
53
00:02:26,980 --> 00:02:28,214
when you're out there.
54
00:02:28,214 --> 00:02:29,782
It's 100 kilometre-an-hour zone
out here.
55
00:02:29,782 --> 00:02:32,619
Somebody's going to
run into the back of you.
56
00:02:35,255 --> 00:02:36,990
Driving 75,
57
00:02:36,990 --> 00:02:39,492
that's as fast
as he likes to drive.
58
00:02:39,492 --> 00:02:40,860
[Hominsky] This driver,
59
00:02:40,860 --> 00:02:43,062
he didn't realize
that going that slow
60
00:02:43,062 --> 00:02:44,097
was a big problem,
61
00:02:44,097 --> 00:02:45,732
so I didn't think
just education
62
00:02:45,732 --> 00:02:46,666
was enough for him.
63
00:02:49,135 --> 00:02:50,270
I do have a ticket for you
64
00:02:50,270 --> 00:02:52,138
just for being
out in the left lane there
65
00:02:52,138 --> 00:02:53,840
driving at that slow speed.
66
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,642
[Hominsky] People are going
to come up behind you,
67
00:02:55,642 --> 00:02:58,211
and they're going to have to
avoid you very quickly,
68
00:02:58,211 --> 00:03:00,580
and if there's somebody
to their right or to their left,
69
00:03:00,580 --> 00:03:03,016
they're going to lose control
and cause a collision.
70
00:03:03,016 --> 00:03:05,318
There he goes,
now he's found the gas pedal.
71
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,722
If you just go
with the flow of traffic,
72
00:03:09,722 --> 00:03:11,624
you get to where you're going.
73
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,136
[Narrator]
Later that morning,
74
00:03:23,136 --> 00:03:25,338
on the other side
of the city...
75
00:03:27,807 --> 00:03:30,043
[Narrator]
...the flow of traffic
76
00:03:30,043 --> 00:03:32,478
has come to a hard stop.
77
00:03:32,478 --> 00:03:34,380
[traffic news radio]
We have a collision now,
78
00:03:34,380 --> 00:03:36,015
eastbound on the 401
in the express
79
00:03:36,015 --> 00:03:37,283
just before Leslie.
80
00:03:37,283 --> 00:03:38,351
Two right lanes
81
00:03:38,351 --> 00:03:39,953
and the right shoulder
are blocked,
82
00:03:39,953 --> 00:03:41,387
causing quite a backup.
83
00:03:47,260 --> 00:03:48,795
[Narrator]
A straight truck
84
00:03:48,795 --> 00:03:53,333
has slammed right into
the back of a slow-moving semi.
85
00:04:00,707 --> 00:04:02,108
[Tim Dunnah]
We have one person
86
00:04:02,108 --> 00:04:04,544
with possibly
life-altering injuries,
87
00:04:04,544 --> 00:04:08,848
and the highway's gotta be
shut down for investigation.
88
00:04:08,848 --> 00:04:11,551
[Narrator]
Constable Tim Dunnah
89
00:04:11,551 --> 00:04:13,586
is working
to manage the scene...
90
00:04:17,056 --> 00:04:19,826
Can you get some good photos
of the steering wheel?
91
00:04:19,826 --> 00:04:22,562
[Narrator] ...and it will be
up to John Hominsky
92
00:04:22,562 --> 00:04:24,931
to lead the investigation.
93
00:04:24,931 --> 00:04:26,866
[Hominsky] As a commercial
motor vehicle inspector,
94
00:04:26,866 --> 00:04:28,901
after a crash,
95
00:04:28,901 --> 00:04:30,270
I try to look at
all the components,
96
00:04:30,270 --> 00:04:33,539
steering, braking, tires,
97
00:04:33,539 --> 00:04:36,042
anything that might have
contributed to the collision.
98
00:04:36,976 --> 00:04:39,379
[Narrator] Until they can
finish the investigation,
99
00:04:39,379 --> 00:04:42,782
all eastbound express lanes
100
00:04:42,782 --> 00:04:44,784
will have to stay closed.
101
00:04:54,527 --> 00:04:55,928
[Dunnah] Shutting down
the express lanes
102
00:04:55,928 --> 00:04:58,031
is not a decision
that we take lightly.
103
00:04:58,031 --> 00:04:59,799
We have to do it
104
00:04:59,799 --> 00:05:02,735
so the officers and rescue teams
have a safe space to work.
105
00:05:02,735 --> 00:05:04,737
Our main goal here
is to get the highway open
106
00:05:04,737 --> 00:05:05,772
as quick as we can.
107
00:05:06,773 --> 00:05:07,774
[honking]
108
00:05:07,774 --> 00:05:08,875
[Narrator] Until they do,
109
00:05:08,875 --> 00:05:11,411
they risk unwanted attention
110
00:05:11,411 --> 00:05:13,746
from drivers
in adjacent lanes
111
00:05:13,746 --> 00:05:15,148
which are still moving.
112
00:05:22,388 --> 00:05:23,423
[honking]
113
00:05:24,490 --> 00:05:27,193
[Hominsky] Every time we have
an accident on the highway,
114
00:05:27,193 --> 00:05:28,227
there's a huge risk
115
00:05:28,227 --> 00:05:29,762
of secondary
collisions happening.
116
00:05:32,432 --> 00:05:34,100

117
00:05:36,069 --> 00:05:38,137

[♪♪♪]
120
00:06:03,329 --> 00:06:04,731
[traffic news radio]
We are dealing
121
00:06:04,731 --> 00:06:05,965
with quite a few problems
122
00:06:05,965 --> 00:06:08,101
if you're just making
your way out this hour.
123
00:06:08,101 --> 00:06:09,802
Eastbound 401 really not moving
124
00:06:09,802 --> 00:06:11,371
starting from Keele Street
125
00:06:11,371 --> 00:06:13,940
to approaching Leslie
in the express.
126
00:06:24,150 --> 00:06:27,019
Look at traffic
just rammed all the way.
127
00:06:27,019 --> 00:06:28,955
[Narrator] Just before noon,
128
00:06:28,955 --> 00:06:33,659
Abrams lead op John Allen
rolls up on scene.
129
00:06:33,659 --> 00:06:34,727
[John Allen] Man, oh, man,
130
00:06:34,727 --> 00:06:37,797
this thing is messed right up,
this truck.
131
00:06:40,967 --> 00:06:42,835
Let's go have a better look,
132
00:06:42,835 --> 00:06:45,104
see what we got here.
133
00:06:48,574 --> 00:06:52,678
[Narrator]
John's timing is bang-on.
134
00:06:52,678 --> 00:06:53,546
I want to see if we can
get some air
135
00:06:53,546 --> 00:06:54,914
to the straight truck.
136
00:06:54,914 --> 00:06:55,915
Basically we're all done.
137
00:06:55,915 --> 00:06:56,883
He's just going to finish
138
00:06:56,883 --> 00:06:58,251
mapping
where this truck was.
139
00:06:59,819 --> 00:07:03,589
[Narrator] With
the investigation complete...
140
00:07:03,589 --> 00:07:05,892
the Abrams crew,
141
00:07:05,892 --> 00:07:07,860
including manager
Peter Colagiovanni,
142
00:07:07,860 --> 00:07:09,195
can get to work.
143
00:07:09,195 --> 00:07:11,230
Cleanup crew here,
we're gonna start cleaning up.
144
00:07:13,599 --> 00:07:17,403
Gonna try to get
these brakes working
145
00:07:17,403 --> 00:07:19,906
to get this thing mobile.
146
00:07:20,773 --> 00:07:25,077
[air hissing]
147
00:07:25,077 --> 00:07:28,548
[Narrator] The truck's
airlines are damaged,
148
00:07:28,548 --> 00:07:30,583
so John needs to find a way
149
00:07:30,583 --> 00:07:32,385
to bypass the damage
150
00:07:32,385 --> 00:07:35,888
and get the air to the brakes.
151
00:07:35,888 --> 00:07:37,790
Hopefully I can find
the right lines
152
00:07:37,790 --> 00:07:38,891
to release the brakes.
153
00:07:40,226 --> 00:07:41,327
So...
154
00:07:41,327 --> 00:07:43,162
that's the one
coming from the tank,
155
00:07:43,162 --> 00:07:44,297
which goes in there,
156
00:07:44,297 --> 00:07:45,565
this comes out here,
157
00:07:45,565 --> 00:07:46,732
to the red.

00:07:46,732 --> 00:07:48,401
[air hissing]
159
00:07:50,870 --> 00:07:52,972
That should be airing up.
160
00:07:52,972 --> 00:07:54,307
Nope.
161
00:07:54,307 --> 00:07:55,274
Nothing?
162
00:07:55,274 --> 00:07:56,175
Nope.
163
00:07:56,175 --> 00:07:58,144
[John] We've tried every line.
164
00:07:58,144 --> 00:08:00,446
Not one of them
are releasing the brake.
165
00:08:00,446 --> 00:08:01,881
I don't understand why.
166
00:08:01,881 --> 00:08:04,917
Cage the brakes
might be the next option.
167
00:08:04,917 --> 00:08:06,018
[John] Clock's ticking,
168
00:08:06,018 --> 00:08:07,653
we gotta
get this thing outta here.

[honking]
170
00:08:11,657 --> 00:08:14,627
It's going to take some time

00:09:39,178 --> 00:09:42,181
[Bill Fell] Today
is going to be a big day.
183
00:09:42,181 --> 00:09:44,383
Rolling out to a tractor-trailer
184
00:09:44,383 --> 00:09:46,686
rolled over
with a load of wood.
185
00:09:48,387 --> 00:09:51,390
[Narrator] Senior op
Bill Fell leads the way
186
00:09:51,390 --> 00:09:54,060
in the 80-tonne rotator.
187
00:09:54,060 --> 00:09:56,929
[Bill] We're bringing out
all the big iron for this one.
188
00:09:56,929 --> 00:09:58,898
It's a big load.
189
00:10:26,258 --> 00:10:27,893
[Andrew] Quite the mess, man.
190
00:10:29,795 --> 00:10:31,797
[Narrator]
Company co-owner Andrew Vink
191
00:10:31,797 --> 00:10:36,035
pieces together
the unusual crash.
192
00:10:36,035 --> 00:10:38,104
The guy tried to avoid
a tractor-trailer
193
00:10:38,104 --> 00:10:39,305
that was completely stopped,
194
00:10:39,305 --> 00:10:40,473
hit the ass end of it,
195
00:10:40,473 --> 00:10:45,478
and, uh, resulted in him
doing almost a 270,
196
00:10:45,478 --> 00:10:46,946
and almost landed
back on his wheels.
197
00:10:48,781 --> 00:10:51,751
In our industry, rollovers
are usually tip-overs.
198
00:10:55,588 --> 00:10:57,990
[driver] Bastard just
rear-ended me and flipped it.
199
00:10:57,990 --> 00:10:59,592
[Andrew] To see something
of this nature
200
00:10:59,592 --> 00:11:02,161
where somebody almost does
a complete 360
201
00:11:02,161 --> 00:11:03,462
with his tractor-trailer
202
00:11:03,462 --> 00:11:04,563
is quite phenomenal.
203
00:11:09,902 --> 00:11:11,303
[Bill] You know,
you see wrecks like this,
204
00:11:11,303 --> 00:11:13,105
and you are amazed when you hear
205
00:11:13,105 --> 00:11:15,241
that they
walked out of that alive.
206
00:11:15,241 --> 00:11:16,308
Could have been a lot worse.
207
00:11:18,277 --> 00:11:20,446
[Andrew] This thing rolled
208
00:11:20,446 --> 00:11:22,148
practically
in the worst possible spot...
209
00:11:22,148 --> 00:11:23,516
[Bill] Oh, look at that!
210
00:11:23,516 --> 00:11:24,650
[Andrew] ...in a swamp
211
00:11:24,650 --> 00:11:26,218
about with three feet
of water or so.
212
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,021
[Bill] That water's deep, bro.
213
00:11:30,289 --> 00:11:33,025
[Narrator] But even worse
than the location
214
00:11:33,025 --> 00:11:34,293
is the load.
215
00:11:34,293 --> 00:11:35,227
[Bill] Those are full pieces?
216
00:11:35,227 --> 00:11:37,029
[Herb] Yes.
217
00:11:37,029 --> 00:11:38,264
[Bill] I mean,
that's not a hand-bomb job.
218
00:11:39,398 --> 00:11:42,968
We got an awkward load
that's awful,
219
00:11:42,968 --> 00:11:46,539
we got floor trusses
48 feet long in one piece.
220
00:11:46,539 --> 00:11:48,207
[Bill] Oh, ho, ho!
221
00:11:48,207 --> 00:11:50,643
Well, this should be fun.
222
00:11:52,044 --> 00:11:53,179
These beams are super long,
223
00:11:53,179 --> 00:11:55,881
and it's going to be
a really awkward offload.
224
00:11:56,882 --> 00:11:58,451
[Andrew] We can't just
pick them up with a fork lift,
225
00:11:58,451 --> 00:11:59,318
do a 180.
226
00:11:59,318 --> 00:12:00,319
The beam is gonna be half way
227
00:12:00,319 --> 00:12:04,190
through
the other lane of the 401.
228
00:12:04,190 --> 00:12:05,825
So quite the challenging load
to deal with.
229
00:12:06,759 --> 00:12:07,827
[Bill] It's going to be
a little delicate
230
00:12:07,827 --> 00:12:10,329
trying to get
these bundles off.
231
00:12:10,329 --> 00:12:12,398
[Andrew] We're going to try
and keep them in bundles.
232
00:12:12,398 --> 00:12:13,499
I don't know, that's the plan,
233
00:12:13,499 --> 00:12:15,134
but I'm sure... [chuckles]
234
00:12:15,134 --> 00:12:16,368
I'm sure the plan's
going to go sideways.
235
00:12:19,004 --> 00:12:20,072
Whoa...
236
00:12:21,974 --> 00:12:23,909
This is, uh, interesting,
237
00:12:23,909 --> 00:12:25,377
to say the very least.
238
00:12:30,883 --> 00:12:32,485
[traffic news radio] The 401
239
00:12:32,485 --> 00:12:35,054
pretty much
looking like a parking lot.
240
00:12:35,054 --> 00:12:38,390
Express lanes
are completely shut down.
241
00:12:38,390 --> 00:12:40,493
[Narrator]
On the 401 at Leslie,
242
00:12:40,493 --> 00:12:42,061
the traffic backlog
243
00:12:42,061 --> 00:12:43,896
has been growing
244
00:12:43,896 --> 00:12:45,564
for an hour...
245
00:12:45,564 --> 00:12:46,766
[grunts]
246
00:12:46,766 --> 00:12:48,334
[Narrator] ...and John Allen
247
00:12:48,334 --> 00:12:50,369
has had to give up
on using air
248
00:12:50,369 --> 00:12:51,437
to release the brakes...
249
00:12:53,739 --> 00:12:55,274
[Tim] How are we doing?
250
00:12:55,274 --> 00:12:58,177
[John] The two back ones,
the plates were shifted.
251
00:12:58,177 --> 00:13:02,014
[Narrator] ...but manually
releasing each set of brakes
252
00:13:02,014 --> 00:13:03,949
is taking even more time.
253
00:13:05,384 --> 00:13:06,819
[honking]
254
00:13:08,154 --> 00:13:09,455
[John]
Each one of the drive wheels
255
00:13:09,455 --> 00:13:10,556
has a brake chamber
256
00:13:10,556 --> 00:13:12,091
that we have to put a bolt in,
257
00:13:12,091 --> 00:13:15,294
and manually wind the brake off.
258
00:13:16,395 --> 00:13:18,464
I really hope
this releases the brakes.
259
00:13:26,739 --> 00:13:28,407
She's rolling.
260
00:13:28,407 --> 00:13:29,642
Yep, all right.
261
00:13:29,642 --> 00:13:31,610
Let me pull up out of your way
a little bit here.
262
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,082
All right, it's rollin' good.
263
00:13:37,082 --> 00:13:39,151
[John] Got this truck
all ready to go.
264
00:13:39,151 --> 00:13:40,886
The only thing
left here is the cleanup.
265
00:13:42,121 --> 00:13:45,257
Come on, come on, let's go.
266
00:13:45,257 --> 00:13:47,426
We got a couple bags here,
I'll start doing that.
267
00:13:47,426 --> 00:13:49,895
[Tim] The highway
is getting ready to be reopened
268
00:13:49,895 --> 00:13:51,931
by our road crew.
269
00:13:53,265 --> 00:13:55,601
You're doing a great job,
we appreciate it.
270
00:14:00,272 --> 00:14:01,607
[Narrator]
Despite the delay,
271
00:14:01,607 --> 00:14:03,475
they finished the job
272
00:14:03,475 --> 00:14:05,277
without any
secondary collisions,
273
00:14:05,277 --> 00:14:09,281
and that's not
the only reason to celebrate.
274
00:14:09,281 --> 00:14:11,417
[John] We got some good news.
275
00:14:11,417 --> 00:14:12,685
At least the driver,
he's okay.
276
00:14:12,685 --> 00:14:14,353
I believe
it's just a broken leg.
277
00:14:14,353 --> 00:14:16,155
Other than that,
he's gonna live.
278
00:14:16,155 --> 00:14:17,590
No life-altering injuries,
279
00:14:17,590 --> 00:14:19,458
so, you know, that's
some good news for today.
280
00:14:39,311 --> 00:14:41,814
[Narrator] Back at the eastern
end of the highway...
281
00:14:41,814 --> 00:14:44,049
This is, uh... interesting.
282
00:14:44,049 --> 00:14:47,052
[Narrator] ...a new member
is joining the crew,
283
00:14:47,052 --> 00:14:50,723
Andrew's father,
Herb Vink himself.
284
00:14:52,024 --> 00:14:54,426
Gotta make sure
that nobody loses a finger.
285
00:14:55,995 --> 00:14:57,062
[Andrew]
I'll be honest with ya,
286
00:14:57,062 --> 00:14:58,497
you know,
Herb's not getting any younger.
287
00:14:58,497 --> 00:14:59,832
He's slowly retiring.
288
00:14:59,832 --> 00:15:02,167
[Narrator]
...but this tough job
289
00:15:02,167 --> 00:15:03,869
is a good chance to see
290
00:15:03,869 --> 00:15:07,239
how the crew is developing
under Andrew's leadership.
291
00:15:07,239 --> 00:15:09,642
[Herb]
It's 48-foot floor joists,
292
00:15:09,642 --> 00:15:13,512
and you cannot upright it
with the load on it.
293
00:15:13,512 --> 00:15:15,648
[Bill] Ay-yi-yi-yi...
294
00:15:15,648 --> 00:15:17,783
[Herb] Although it was
strapped in two portions,
295
00:15:17,783 --> 00:15:21,854
the top portion,
the tie-downs were broken,
296
00:15:21,854 --> 00:15:23,255
so it was scattered
like toothpicks.
297
00:15:24,523 --> 00:15:26,358
[Narrator]
With Herb's guidance,
298
00:15:26,358 --> 00:15:28,594
they bundle
those loose boards together.
299
00:15:28,594 --> 00:15:29,662
Just like that...
300
00:15:29,662 --> 00:15:32,431
Right there,
line in a bit.
301
00:15:32,431 --> 00:15:35,034
[Narrator] They can now
use a fork attachment
302
00:15:35,034 --> 00:15:37,002
to lift the bundle...
303
00:15:37,002 --> 00:15:38,938
Winch in, winch in,
winch in, Bill, winch in...
304
00:15:40,739 --> 00:15:42,875
[Narrator]
...but at 48 feet long,
305
00:15:42,875 --> 00:15:45,444
they need perfect balance.
306
00:15:45,444 --> 00:15:48,447
[Andrew] Getting centre
with this bundle is crucial
307
00:15:48,447 --> 00:15:50,349
to make sure this gets
safely back onto the trailer
308
00:15:50,349 --> 00:15:51,550
that we're trying
to load it onto.
309
00:15:52,918 --> 00:15:55,387
[Bill] It's always an adventure
with Andrew.
310
00:15:56,922 --> 00:15:58,524
Great, pull.
311
00:16:03,028 --> 00:16:04,029
Yup, swing it in.
312
00:16:05,898 --> 00:16:08,367
[Bill] It's not just
a pick and drop...
313
00:16:08,367 --> 00:16:11,603
I'll try and be smooth
on these controls, my friends.
314
00:16:11,603 --> 00:16:15,441
[Bill] ...you gotta come over
as smooth as you can
315
00:16:15,441 --> 00:16:16,775
to prevent it from swinging...
316
00:16:17,910 --> 00:16:21,146
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa...
317
00:16:21,146 --> 00:16:22,381
[Bill] ...and when you're
dropping it,
318
00:16:22,381 --> 00:16:23,515
we gotta make sure
319
00:16:23,515 --> 00:16:25,784
that we have enough space
for the rest of them.
320
00:16:25,784 --> 00:16:27,286
It's a long process.
321
00:16:29,555 --> 00:16:31,190
[Shawn] You think
if we do a camp fire,
322
00:16:31,190 --> 00:16:32,257
it's going to be quicker?
323
00:16:32,257 --> 00:16:33,158
[Bill laughs]
324
00:16:35,961 --> 00:16:38,564
[Narrator] They've moved
the scattered boards,
325
00:16:38,564 --> 00:16:41,100
but they'll need
a faster process
326
00:16:41,100 --> 00:16:42,001
for the rest of the load...
327
00:16:45,604 --> 00:16:47,973
[Bill] Yeah, we gotta
figure this out.
328
00:16:47,973 --> 00:16:52,011
[Narrator] ...and the most
experienced crew member on scene
329
00:16:52,011 --> 00:16:53,412
might have an idea.
330
00:16:53,412 --> 00:16:55,948
[Herb] If we were to put
the two forklifts underneath...
331
00:16:55,948 --> 00:16:57,282
Yeah?
332
00:16:57,282 --> 00:16:58,650
...and then use the rotator
333
00:16:58,650 --> 00:17:00,519
to slowly bring it up,
334
00:17:00,519 --> 00:17:02,855
there won't be
much pressure left there.
335
00:17:05,257 --> 00:17:06,492
[Narrator] Two skid steers
336
00:17:06,492 --> 00:17:07,626
will push up
337
00:17:07,626 --> 00:17:09,695
and hold the remaining load,
338
00:17:09,695 --> 00:17:12,364
while the rotator
rolls the trailer
339
00:17:12,364 --> 00:17:14,400
onto its wheels.
340
00:17:17,770 --> 00:17:19,371
[Andrew] We got about
17,000 pounds left of payload
341
00:17:19,371 --> 00:17:20,439
on there.
342
00:17:20,439 --> 00:17:22,808
The two forklifts will keep...
343
00:17:22,808 --> 00:17:25,544
would keep it
from falling off the trailer.
344
00:17:25,544 --> 00:17:26,678
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
345
00:17:26,678 --> 00:17:28,547
It would save a lot of work
if we do it.
346
00:17:28,547 --> 00:17:30,182
Go check to see
if all the straps are good.
347
00:17:30,182 --> 00:17:31,216
They are, they're all good.
348
00:17:31,216 --> 00:17:32,684
Check they're all tight.
349
00:17:33,719 --> 00:17:37,189
If we can save
from offloading this,
350
00:17:37,189 --> 00:17:39,391
we're having a good day.
351
00:17:40,392 --> 00:17:43,562
[Narrator] But the success
of Herb's plan
352
00:17:43,562 --> 00:17:46,465
hinges on the beams
staying contained
353
00:17:46,465 --> 00:17:47,533
during the lift.
354
00:17:47,533 --> 00:17:48,901
[Herb] Straps are meant
to hold down.
355
00:17:48,901 --> 00:17:51,170
They have some side strength,
356
00:17:51,170 --> 00:17:53,172
but it's not meant
to hold a load
357
00:17:53,172 --> 00:17:54,973
fully on its side.
358
00:17:54,973 --> 00:17:58,210
Under that kind of condition,
they can break.
359
00:18:00,012 --> 00:18:01,580
[Andrew]
If this thing breaks free,
360
00:18:01,580 --> 00:18:03,082
we're back to square one,
361
00:18:03,082 --> 00:18:05,617
and we just added
multiple hours to the job.
362
00:18:06,852 --> 00:18:09,521
[groans]
Ah, my lucky day, man.
363
00:18:09,521 --> 00:18:12,257
[Narrator] Andrew needs
to prep the truck for towing
364
00:18:12,257 --> 00:18:13,258
once it's on its wheels.
365
00:18:14,526 --> 00:18:16,562
[Andrew] I feel like
Crocodile Dundee in here.
366
00:18:18,030 --> 00:18:20,265
Okay, that's good.
367
00:18:20,265 --> 00:18:21,834
We gotta release the brakes
on the truck,
368
00:18:21,834 --> 00:18:23,602
gotta remove the shaft.
369
00:18:23,602 --> 00:18:24,603
Bill?
370
00:18:24,603 --> 00:18:26,105
[Bill] Yeah?
371
00:18:26,105 --> 00:18:27,439
[Andrew] Can you work with me
for the shaft here
372
00:18:27,439 --> 00:18:29,108
at the back
between both drives?
373
00:18:29,108 --> 00:18:30,375
Make sure you don't drop that,
374
00:18:30,375 --> 00:18:31,410
because if you drop it,
375
00:18:31,410 --> 00:18:33,412
you don't see it anymore.
376
00:18:33,412 --> 00:18:36,682
[Narrator] Now they can
rig for the pull...
377
00:18:36,682 --> 00:18:38,584
Rim sling,
378
00:18:38,584 --> 00:18:40,185
two frame chains.
379
00:18:40,185 --> 00:18:41,386
[Narrator] ...banking
380
00:18:41,386 --> 00:18:43,589
that they can keep
the load intact.
381
00:18:43,589 --> 00:18:45,390
You through? Okay.
382
00:18:45,390 --> 00:18:47,259
[Andrew]
You got a mix of loaders,
383
00:18:47,259 --> 00:18:49,194
a mix of heavy tow trucks
involved.
384
00:18:49,194 --> 00:18:51,029
We're definitely
in uncharted territories here.
385
00:18:51,029 --> 00:18:53,465
[Herb] It's a bit of a gamble.
386
00:18:53,465 --> 00:18:56,034
I've tried it,
but probably 20 years ago...
387
00:18:57,469 --> 00:18:58,604
[Narrator] ...and today,
388
00:18:58,604 --> 00:19:00,205
it won't be Herb
on the controls...
389
00:19:00,205 --> 00:19:02,441
[Herb] Just gotta be careful.
390
00:19:02,441 --> 00:19:06,011
Bill has developed
in the last four or five years
391
00:19:06,011 --> 00:19:09,948
to be a very key figure
in our towing operation,
392
00:19:09,948 --> 00:19:11,750
but there is always
a risk factor.
393
00:19:11,750 --> 00:19:13,552
[Herb] We have to see
if we've got enough boom.
394
00:19:13,552 --> 00:19:14,720
Yeah.
395
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,121
[Bill] I think
I've come a long way.
396
00:19:16,121 --> 00:19:17,756
I've worked hard for it.
397
00:19:17,756 --> 00:19:19,892
I still got a lot to learn,
obviously.
398
00:19:19,892 --> 00:19:22,094
Maybe that'll work,
I don't know.
399
00:19:22,094 --> 00:19:23,896
[Narrator] The manoeuvre
400
00:19:23,896 --> 00:19:26,498
is well outside
of Bill's comfort zone.
401
00:19:26,498 --> 00:19:29,268
[Bill] Usually
you're pulling it towards you.
402
00:19:29,268 --> 00:19:31,670
This time we're kind of
pushing it away
403
00:19:31,670 --> 00:19:32,671
to upright it.
404
00:19:34,306 --> 00:19:36,608
[Andrew] We're working
pretty much at max reach here.
405
00:19:38,343 --> 00:19:40,412
Okay, you good to go, Herb?
406
00:19:40,412 --> 00:19:41,547
Okay.
407
00:19:41,547 --> 00:19:43,749
[Andrew] The loaders
can lift 10,000 pounds.
408
00:19:45,250 --> 00:19:47,386
We're not even sure that we're
going to have enough power
409
00:19:47,386 --> 00:19:48,654
to get this thing upright.
410
00:19:48,654 --> 00:19:50,055
Hopefully everything
goes good.
411
00:19:50,055 --> 00:19:52,157
Hopefully the load
stays on the trailer.
412
00:19:52,157 --> 00:19:54,960
You guys better do your job
and get 'er upright, okay?
413
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,029
[Shawn] You guys ready?
414
00:19:57,029 --> 00:19:59,298
[Andrew] Give 'er a try.
415
00:20:01,333 --> 00:20:03,302
[Shawn] Andrew,
you're watching on your side?
416
00:20:03,302 --> 00:20:04,436
Yeah.
417
00:20:04,436 --> 00:20:06,205
[Narrator]
Bill needs to ensure
418
00:20:06,205 --> 00:20:09,208
he times his lift
with the two loaders,
419
00:20:09,208 --> 00:20:12,444
or he risks losing the cargo.
420
00:20:12,444 --> 00:20:15,247
[Andrew] Lifting, Bill,
keep on pulling.
421
00:20:16,281 --> 00:20:17,282
[Andrew] I don't know
422
00:20:17,282 --> 00:20:18,417
how this thing
is going to roll over.
423
00:20:18,417 --> 00:20:19,518
I'm not sure if the straps
are going to let go,
424
00:20:19,518 --> 00:20:21,954
if the bundles are
going to go flying...
425
00:20:21,954 --> 00:20:24,823
[Herb]
Pull more on your grey, Bill.
426
00:20:24,823 --> 00:20:27,059
[Bill]
It's a little unorthodox.
427
00:20:27,059 --> 00:20:29,228
It's just
on the borderline of crazy.
428
00:20:30,229 --> 00:20:31,496
[Andrew]
Keep on winching, Billy.
429
00:20:42,841 --> 00:20:44,843
[Bill] Are we going to
run out of line here?
430
00:20:44,843 --> 00:20:47,212
[Andrew] Keep on pushing it.
431
00:20:47,212 --> 00:20:49,715
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
432
00:20:49,715 --> 00:20:51,516
[Shawn] I'm maxed out.
433
00:20:51,516 --> 00:20:53,752
It doesn't even go up, at all.
434
00:20:53,752 --> 00:20:54,686
Nothing.
435
00:21:01,660 --> 00:21:03,462
[Narrator] On the 401
436
00:21:03,462 --> 00:21:04,429
east of Cornwall...
437
00:21:04,429 --> 00:21:05,530
[Shawn] I'm maxed out.
438
00:21:05,530 --> 00:21:08,200
Like, it doesn't even
go up, at all.
439
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:09,368
Nothing.
440
00:21:10,602 --> 00:21:12,671
[Narrator]
...Herb's unconventional plan...
441
00:21:12,671 --> 00:21:14,473
[Andrew]
Man, we're not doing much.
442
00:21:14,473 --> 00:21:17,876
[Narrator] ...is hitting
overwhelming resistance.
443
00:21:17,876 --> 00:21:19,845
[Andrew] We're pushing
the 80 to its max.
444
00:21:19,845 --> 00:21:22,080
It's just on the borderline
of crazy.
445
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,016
I'm sweatin'.
446
00:21:25,450 --> 00:21:27,653
[Andrew] We're not even sure
that we have enough line
447
00:21:27,653 --> 00:21:28,987
and enough power
to get this thing upright.
448
00:21:28,987 --> 00:21:30,822
Your mains are good
right there, Billy,
449
00:21:30,822 --> 00:21:32,691
so if you keep on booming up...
450
00:21:32,691 --> 00:21:35,327
[Narrator]
Working to roll the truck
451
00:21:35,327 --> 00:21:36,828
away from the rotator
452
00:21:36,828 --> 00:21:40,232
is forcing Bill
to work his controls
453
00:21:40,232 --> 00:21:41,700
in reverse.
454
00:21:41,700 --> 00:21:42,567
[Andrew] Go in on your grey...
455
00:21:42,567 --> 00:21:43,735
[Bill] Most wrecks we do,
456
00:21:43,735 --> 00:21:46,238
we are uprighting it
towards us.
457
00:21:46,238 --> 00:21:47,739
So it's different.
458
00:21:47,739 --> 00:21:51,243
[Herb] You can't boom up
until you slacken them up.
459
00:21:51,243 --> 00:21:54,012
We need to be exact on this.
460
00:21:54,012 --> 00:21:55,681
[Andrew] Whoa.
461
00:21:55,681 --> 00:21:57,816
Keep on doing that slowly.
462
00:21:58,817 --> 00:22:00,385
[Narrator]
It's up to Andrew
463
00:22:00,385 --> 00:22:02,521
to guide him through.
464
00:22:02,521 --> 00:22:03,722
-Billy?
-Yeah.
465
00:22:03,722 --> 00:22:07,426
You can actually slack off
slightly on the mains,
466
00:22:07,426 --> 00:22:08,560
and boom up slowly.
467
00:22:09,695 --> 00:22:12,698
A reverse roll
can be really tricky.
468
00:22:12,698 --> 00:22:14,599
[Andrew]
So, boom up now.
469
00:22:14,599 --> 00:22:15,600
[Bill] It puts a lot of stress
on the truck,
470
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,602
and the operator,
471
00:22:17,602 --> 00:22:19,371
because you're wondering...
472
00:22:19,371 --> 00:22:21,907
"Hmm... is this going to work?"
473
00:22:22,908 --> 00:22:24,009
Keep on booming up.
474
00:22:25,744 --> 00:22:28,947
[creaking slowly]
475
00:22:44,563 --> 00:22:45,931
Whoa, yeah!
476
00:22:47,099 --> 00:22:48,500
I felt it start to go,
477
00:22:48,500 --> 00:22:51,303
so I got on the mains
to release them just in time.
478
00:22:52,137 --> 00:22:54,239
[Andrew] Yeah, you've
saved the day, Bill.
479
00:22:54,239 --> 00:22:56,141
It splashed down...
480
00:22:56,141 --> 00:22:57,442
we're on our way home soon.
481
00:22:57,442 --> 00:23:00,545
I was able to put
the lines out just in time, man.
482
00:23:00,545 --> 00:23:02,013
[Shawn] It wouldn't have
flipped over
483
00:23:02,013 --> 00:23:03,582
if it wouldn't have been
for you, buddy.
484
00:23:03,582 --> 00:23:05,751
Thanks!
485
00:23:05,751 --> 00:23:07,953
It was a little nerve-racking,
486
00:23:07,953 --> 00:23:10,455
but it worked.
487
00:23:10,455 --> 00:23:11,923
[Andrew] He pulled it off.
488
00:23:11,923 --> 00:23:13,191
I couldn't have
done it better myself.
489
00:23:13,191 --> 00:23:15,293
[Herb] Saved a lot of time.
490
00:23:18,330 --> 00:23:22,401
[Narrator] Now they just need
to ease the truck and trailer
491
00:23:22,401 --> 00:23:24,403
back to solid ground.
492
00:23:25,237 --> 00:23:27,172
[Andrew]
Rotate towards the front.
493
00:23:31,676 --> 00:23:34,146
Make sure your rotation, Bill,
is dead on with it.
494
00:23:36,348 --> 00:23:39,351
Oh, yeah.
495
00:23:39,351 --> 00:23:41,486
[Bill] There we go.
496
00:23:41,486 --> 00:23:42,621
Beautiful.
497
00:23:44,790 --> 00:23:45,957
[Bill] I think today
498
00:23:45,957 --> 00:23:47,793
was one of my strongest days
as an operator.
499
00:23:47,793 --> 00:23:49,227
I think I did really well.
500
00:23:50,095 --> 00:23:51,530
[Narrator] It was a challenge
501
00:23:51,530 --> 00:23:53,365
that brought Herb's past
502
00:23:53,365 --> 00:23:55,567
and future together.
503
00:23:55,567 --> 00:23:57,302
[Andrew]
Every piece of equipment
504
00:23:57,302 --> 00:23:58,170
and every operator
505
00:23:58,170 --> 00:24:00,338
played a tremendously big role
506
00:24:00,338 --> 00:24:01,973
to get this thing off
and get this thing upright,
507
00:24:01,973 --> 00:24:04,075
so it was nice to see
old methods
508
00:24:04,075 --> 00:24:05,544
and new methods mix up
509
00:24:05,544 --> 00:24:08,013
to get a successful recovery
in the books.
510
00:24:08,013 --> 00:24:09,614
I'm proud of the team effort,
511
00:24:09,614 --> 00:24:12,651
and the camaraderie,
512
00:24:12,651 --> 00:24:14,352
and the calm, cool,
and collected.
513
00:24:14,352 --> 00:24:18,924
[Herb] Herb's Towing's future,
it's very solid.
514
00:24:18,924 --> 00:24:22,227
That was a good job, boys.
515
00:24:22,227 --> 00:24:23,895
Andrew has
a very good team behind him.
516
00:24:25,363 --> 00:24:27,299
It's dinner time!
517
00:24:40,946 --> 00:24:43,048
[honks twice]
518
00:25:00,866 --> 00:25:03,869
[Narrator]
700 kilometres west...
519
00:25:05,937 --> 00:25:08,173
[Narrator] ...the other end
of the province
520
00:25:08,173 --> 00:25:12,010
is still locked
in the grip of winter,
521
00:25:12,010 --> 00:25:14,079
and a blast of snow
522
00:25:14,079 --> 00:25:17,082
is hammering Highway 402
523
00:25:17,082 --> 00:25:18,450
hard.
524
00:25:33,465 --> 00:25:36,234
We had a system blow through
earlier in the day.
525
00:25:36,234 --> 00:25:37,903
It left a lot of snow
on the ground.
526
00:25:38,904 --> 00:25:39,938
[Narrator]
Just before midnight,
527
00:25:39,938 --> 00:25:42,140
Collin Vandenheuvel
528
00:25:42,140 --> 00:25:45,277
is heading 50 kilometres
east from Sarnia
529
00:25:45,277 --> 00:25:47,479
to a scene in Warwick.
530
00:25:47,479 --> 00:25:49,281
I'm heading out
in the rotator.
531
00:25:49,281 --> 00:25:51,550
My dad's following
in the 50-tonne.
532
00:25:51,550 --> 00:25:53,151
We want to make sure
we got enough iron
533
00:25:53,151 --> 00:25:53,985
for this fight.
534
00:25:56,187 --> 00:25:57,722
[Gary] Looks like
535
00:25:57,722 --> 00:26:00,058
we got our hands full
out here tonight.
536
00:26:00,058 --> 00:26:03,361
[Narrator]
Even Collin's father, Gary,
537
00:26:03,361 --> 00:26:06,765
has never tackled
a job like this.
538
00:26:06,765 --> 00:26:08,266
All right, let's go see
what we got.
539
00:26:08,266 --> 00:26:09,401
It's a big one.
540
00:26:09,401 --> 00:26:10,969
That's some serious
carnage there.
541
00:26:10,969 --> 00:26:11,870
Yup.
542
00:26:17,108 --> 00:26:18,443
[Collin] We've got
a trailer on its side
543
00:26:18,443 --> 00:26:19,778
loaded with cars.
544
00:26:19,778 --> 00:26:21,947
We've got the truck
separated from it,
545
00:26:21,947 --> 00:26:23,648
and it's further down
in the ditch,
546
00:26:23,648 --> 00:26:26,585
and then we've got
another truck up the road.
547
00:26:26,585 --> 00:26:28,253
Holy...
548
00:26:29,754 --> 00:26:31,923
[Gary] We got
a lot of trucks here.
549
00:26:33,425 --> 00:26:35,293
[Collin] Wow.
550
00:26:36,328 --> 00:26:38,630
[Gary] It'll be
an interesting night.
551
00:26:38,630 --> 00:26:40,799
Never had this many vehicles
on its side in one location.
552
00:26:41,933 --> 00:26:45,370
This is the unicorn.
553
00:26:49,140 --> 00:26:51,176
[Narrator]
The fully loaded car-carrier
554
00:26:51,176 --> 00:26:54,779
swerved to avoid
a jackknifed semi,
555
00:26:54,779 --> 00:26:56,648
losing control
556
00:26:56,648 --> 00:26:59,951
and barrelling
right into the median.
557
00:27:02,287 --> 00:27:04,789
[Gary] I've never had
a car-hauler on its side.
558
00:27:04,789 --> 00:27:07,492
This is something new to me.
559
00:27:07,492 --> 00:27:08,793
A unique recovery for us.
560
00:27:08,793 --> 00:27:11,062
The trailer's going to be
the big job on this one.
561
00:27:12,130 --> 00:27:14,532
[Collin] I've been to a few
multi-vehicle pile-ups,
562
00:27:14,532 --> 00:27:17,402
but this one takes it
a whole step above that.
563
00:27:17,402 --> 00:27:19,404
Well, Collin, I'm just
going to go down the road.
564
00:27:19,404 --> 00:27:20,672
I'm going to check out
that other one.
565
00:27:20,672 --> 00:27:21,539
Okay.
566
00:27:24,409 --> 00:27:25,877
[Narrator] 200 metres back...
567
00:27:26,978 --> 00:27:28,013
She's empty.
568
00:27:28,013 --> 00:27:29,347
[Narrator] ...the second truck
569
00:27:29,347 --> 00:27:32,250
poses some problems of its own.
570
00:27:32,250 --> 00:27:34,352
This one's knocked around
pretty hard,
571
00:27:34,352 --> 00:27:36,388
uh, knocked the cab
right off the truck,
572
00:27:36,388 --> 00:27:37,822
by the looks of it.
573
00:27:37,822 --> 00:27:39,224
It's jackknifed
all the way around.
574
00:27:40,425 --> 00:27:42,060
[Gary]
It's one of those nights.
575
00:27:42,060 --> 00:27:43,361
We've got two recoveries
576
00:27:43,361 --> 00:27:45,330
within a close distance
of each other.
577
00:27:45,330 --> 00:27:47,265
We're going to split up.
578
00:27:48,433 --> 00:27:50,769
I'll deal with that one,
579
00:27:50,769 --> 00:27:54,172
if you want to deal with
unstrapping these cars,
580
00:27:54,172 --> 00:27:55,573
and then, uh, just...
581
00:27:55,573 --> 00:27:56,808
I guess you're going to use
the rotator
582
00:27:56,808 --> 00:27:58,343
whatever plan you come up with.
583
00:27:58,343 --> 00:28:00,245
-Sounds good.
-Okay.
584
00:28:01,413 --> 00:28:03,281
[Gary]
I think the best avenue's
585
00:28:03,281 --> 00:28:05,717
that Collin's going to take
the lead on this.
586
00:28:07,919 --> 00:28:10,555
[Collin]
I gotta get 'er outta here.
587
00:28:11,589 --> 00:28:13,692
[Narrator] Tasking Collin
588
00:28:13,692 --> 00:28:15,960
with the unprecedented challenge
589
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,229
is a huge vote of confidence
from Gary...
590
00:28:18,229 --> 00:28:20,565
[Collin] Holy crap.
591
00:28:20,565 --> 00:28:22,834
[Narrator] ...and it's
a huge responsibility
592
00:28:22,834 --> 00:28:25,036
for his son.
593
00:28:25,036 --> 00:28:26,371
[Gary] This car-hauler,
594
00:28:26,371 --> 00:28:28,573
it's not something
I've ever done before.
595
00:28:28,573 --> 00:28:30,475
I have total trust in him,
596
00:28:30,475 --> 00:28:31,543
and he'll get the job done.
597
00:28:33,378 --> 00:28:36,081
This is a big scene
for one recovery.
598
00:28:36,081 --> 00:28:37,882
It's gonna be a pain.
599
00:28:48,593 --> 00:28:51,930
[Narrator] 50 kilometres
east of Sarnia,
600
00:28:51,930 --> 00:28:54,099
a double recovery scene
601
00:28:54,099 --> 00:28:56,968
has shut down
the westbound 402...
602
00:28:56,968 --> 00:28:58,136
It's gonna be a pain.
603
00:28:58,136 --> 00:29:00,572
[Narrator]
...and Collin Vandenheuvel
604
00:29:00,572 --> 00:29:01,806
is facing a job
605
00:29:01,806 --> 00:29:05,577
that even his father
has never attempted.
606
00:29:05,577 --> 00:29:06,644
[Gary] This car-hauler,
607
00:29:06,644 --> 00:29:08,580
it's not something
I've ever done before.
608
00:29:08,580 --> 00:29:10,281
I have total trust in him,
609
00:29:10,281 --> 00:29:11,950
and he'll get the job done.
610
00:29:11,950 --> 00:29:14,352
Well, let's get that truck
up onto the road.
611
00:29:15,787 --> 00:29:18,123
I'm going to have to go back
to my light-duty towing roots
612
00:29:18,123 --> 00:29:21,526
to help with all these cars
on their side.
613
00:29:23,495 --> 00:29:25,897
She is slick.
614
00:29:25,897 --> 00:29:28,266
[Narrator]
That light-duty history
615
00:29:28,266 --> 00:29:31,236
isn't very far back
in Collin's past.
616
00:29:32,470 --> 00:29:35,273
[Collin]
It is just a soupy mess.
617
00:29:35,273 --> 00:29:37,742
[Narrator]
Just a few years ago,
618
00:29:37,742 --> 00:29:40,678
he was fighting to master
one-tonne winch-outs...
619
00:29:42,247 --> 00:29:43,615
That's going to be a challenge.
620
00:29:43,615 --> 00:29:45,450
[Narrator]
...and to prove himself.
621
00:29:51,923 --> 00:29:54,526
Let's start getting prepared.
622
00:29:54,526 --> 00:29:56,161
[Collin] A couple years ago,
623
00:29:56,161 --> 00:29:57,662
I would have looked
a job like this,
624
00:29:57,662 --> 00:30:00,465
and I wouldn't have had
any clue.
625
00:30:00,465 --> 00:30:02,367
Now it's still scary,
626
00:30:02,367 --> 00:30:04,302
but I'm getting to be able
to do it by myself.
627
00:30:04,302 --> 00:30:06,771
I'm going to grab him first.
628
00:30:07,705 --> 00:30:08,673
[Narrator] Tonight...
629
00:30:08,673 --> 00:30:10,975
for the biggest test
of his career,
630
00:30:10,975 --> 00:30:13,545
Collin will start
with the tractor,
631
00:30:13,545 --> 00:30:17,215
itself loaded down
with two SUVs.
632
00:30:17,215 --> 00:30:19,117
[Collin] We're going to leave
these vehicles on
633
00:30:19,117 --> 00:30:21,352
just because to lift
these vehicles off,
634
00:30:21,352 --> 00:30:22,854
we'd do more damage.
635
00:30:22,854 --> 00:30:25,523
They're actually
undamaged as they sit.
636
00:30:26,558 --> 00:30:29,227
[Narrator] But the decision
comes with a price,
637
00:30:29,227 --> 00:30:33,998
over 10,000 extra pounds
of resistance.
638
00:30:33,998 --> 00:30:36,401
[Collin] 5,000-pound Jeep,
639
00:30:36,401 --> 00:30:38,503
and a 6,000-pound SUV up there,
640
00:30:38,503 --> 00:30:41,573
so we're at almost 40,000 pounds
right there.
641
00:30:45,677 --> 00:30:47,745
These are solid right here.
642
00:30:47,745 --> 00:30:50,014
These are a very good point
to pull on.
643
00:30:50,014 --> 00:30:52,083
[Brian] Oh, absolutely.
644
00:30:52,083 --> 00:30:54,919
[Narrator]
Collin's only help is Brian,
645
00:30:54,919 --> 00:30:57,689
who usually works
in the light-duty division.
646
00:30:59,691 --> 00:31:01,559
Boom.
647
00:31:01,559 --> 00:31:03,761
Locked and loaded,
and ready to pull.
648
00:31:06,030 --> 00:31:07,999
[Collin] We're both going
to go down into the ditch.
649
00:31:07,999 --> 00:31:09,267
I just want
to watch the back end,
650
00:31:09,267 --> 00:31:11,069
make sure it's not dragging.
651
00:31:11,069 --> 00:31:12,537
I want you to watch
the front end,
652
00:31:12,537 --> 00:31:14,038
make sure it's not dragging.
653
00:31:14,038 --> 00:31:15,473
Okay?
654
00:31:16,441 --> 00:31:17,609
[Collin] The truck itself,
655
00:31:17,609 --> 00:31:19,177
they're very low,
656
00:31:19,177 --> 00:31:21,246
so bringing it back up
and out of the ditch
657
00:31:21,246 --> 00:31:22,847
is going to be very challenging
658
00:31:22,847 --> 00:31:24,616
without damaging
the underside of that truck,
659
00:31:24,616 --> 00:31:26,117
and on top of that,
660
00:31:26,117 --> 00:31:28,019
we've got a lot of weight
up high,
661
00:31:28,019 --> 00:31:30,188
so I don't want this thing
starting to teeter
662
00:31:30,188 --> 00:31:31,389
and roll over.
663
00:31:31,389 --> 00:31:34,292
Watch out, I'm going
to pull forward, okay?
664
00:31:39,597 --> 00:31:41,900
She's tippy.
665
00:31:43,134 --> 00:31:45,069
That's the part
I don't like about this.
666
00:31:52,911 --> 00:31:54,479
So I'm just trying
to keep the lines
667
00:31:54,479 --> 00:31:56,080
as even as I can on this
668
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:57,582
because of how tippy it is.
669
00:31:57,582 --> 00:31:59,651
We've got a lot of weight
up high on this,
670
00:31:59,651 --> 00:32:01,886
so if I pull too hard
on one of my lines,
671
00:32:01,886 --> 00:32:05,323
it can actually
flip this unit right now.
672
00:32:10,762 --> 00:32:12,597
-[Brian] Hey, Collin?
-Yeah?
673
00:32:12,597 --> 00:32:15,433
[Brian] We're getting close
to that front bumper.
674
00:32:16,434 --> 00:32:17,468
[Collin] It's so low
675
00:32:17,468 --> 00:32:18,770
that I can't see underneath,
676
00:32:18,770 --> 00:32:21,005
and see what
I'm actually dragging on.
677
00:32:21,005 --> 00:32:22,907
[creaking]
678
00:32:24,309 --> 00:32:25,743
[Brian]
What's rubbing, Collin?
679
00:32:25,743 --> 00:32:27,645
[creaking]
680
00:32:27,645 --> 00:32:29,347
[Collin] Everything.
681
00:32:34,652 --> 00:32:37,021
I'm just worried about
these fuel tanks
682
00:32:37,021 --> 00:32:38,690
rubbing against the ground.
683
00:32:38,690 --> 00:32:41,192
I don't want to blow the tanks.
684
00:32:42,327 --> 00:32:43,428
[Collin]
I'm hearing some noises
685
00:32:43,428 --> 00:32:44,762
I really don't like right now,
686
00:32:44,762 --> 00:32:45,997
so we're just going to stop.
687
00:32:45,997 --> 00:32:48,433
Brian, can you
set the brakes for me?
688
00:32:48,433 --> 00:32:49,467
[air hissing]
689
00:32:52,437 --> 00:32:53,638
[Gary] Looks like that tractor
690
00:32:53,638 --> 00:32:55,173
might be fighting him
a little bit.
691
00:32:55,173 --> 00:32:56,741
I know it's really low
on the front end there.
692
00:32:56,741 --> 00:32:59,277
He may be struggling with that,
693
00:32:59,277 --> 00:33:00,745
and it's really heavy,
694
00:33:00,745 --> 00:33:03,381
so, uh, he's got
his hands full with it.
695
00:33:03,381 --> 00:33:06,818
[Narrator] But tackling
a jackknife solo,
696
00:33:06,818 --> 00:33:09,721
Gary's hands
are far from empty.
697
00:33:09,721 --> 00:33:12,123
[Gary] Pretty close.
698
00:33:12,123 --> 00:33:13,891
I can live with that.
699
00:33:14,859 --> 00:33:17,161
I'm hoping I can just
actually pull it around.
700
00:33:18,062 --> 00:33:19,063
This has to work.
701
00:33:19,063 --> 00:33:20,565
I don't have any other options,
702
00:33:20,565 --> 00:33:21,833
so I'll get my feet down,
703
00:33:21,833 --> 00:33:23,167
and let's see what it does.
704
00:33:25,536 --> 00:33:27,739
Whoo, hydraulics
are cold tonight,
705
00:33:27,739 --> 00:33:29,907
everything is slow.
706
00:33:29,907 --> 00:33:31,042
Okay, I'm going
to start pulling.
707
00:33:33,011 --> 00:33:35,813
[creaking and cracking]
708
00:33:37,982 --> 00:33:41,219
Lots of banging and crunching
going around there,
709
00:33:41,219 --> 00:33:42,487
but that's just the truck
coming off.
710
00:33:42,487 --> 00:33:45,390
Hopefully it doesn't
fight me too much.
711
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,696
[Narrator]
Over on Collin's scene...
712
00:33:51,696 --> 00:33:53,765
[Collin] We're going to
have to get some blocks,
713
00:33:53,765 --> 00:33:55,633
and we're going to have to
lift that front end up.
714
00:33:55,633 --> 00:33:57,435
[Narrator]
...to get the loaded tractor
715
00:33:57,435 --> 00:34:00,004
ready for the pull,
716
00:34:00,004 --> 00:34:03,007
Collin enlists the driver
to help.
717
00:34:03,007 --> 00:34:05,209
[Collin] Can we bring
that back car down
718
00:34:05,209 --> 00:34:06,477
just to keep that
centre of gravity
719
00:34:06,477 --> 00:34:07,512
a little bit lower?
720
00:34:07,512 --> 00:34:08,746
That'd be awesome.
721
00:34:08,746 --> 00:34:10,281
Just because this is where
722
00:34:10,281 --> 00:34:12,050
it's going to get
really tippy on us,
723
00:34:12,050 --> 00:34:14,552
is getting it up outta here
with a high centre.
724
00:34:14,552 --> 00:34:15,720
[Collin] I'm hoping
725
00:34:15,720 --> 00:34:17,221
that's going to give me
enough lift
726
00:34:17,221 --> 00:34:19,057
to balance it out a little bit
727
00:34:19,057 --> 00:34:20,725
to crest the ditch
a little bit easier.
728
00:34:24,962 --> 00:34:27,465
Let's just see
what it does here for a second.
729
00:34:33,237 --> 00:34:36,174
No room underneath this thing.
730
00:34:36,174 --> 00:34:39,043
I'm just trying to take it
nice and gentle
731
00:34:39,043 --> 00:34:40,945
so I don't
rip anything off this,
732
00:34:40,945 --> 00:34:42,113
but I gotta get 'er outta here,
733
00:34:42,113 --> 00:34:43,214
so we're just gonna kind of
734
00:34:43,214 --> 00:34:45,550
keep stepping it up
with wood here,
735
00:34:45,550 --> 00:34:47,085
and we'll go from there.
736
00:34:56,294 --> 00:34:58,196
[creaking]
737
00:35:01,466 --> 00:35:03,134
Just listening
for every single sound
738
00:35:03,134 --> 00:35:04,268
at this point.
739
00:35:07,105 --> 00:35:09,173
Slow and steady wins the race.
740
00:35:16,514 --> 00:35:17,748
There we go.
741
00:35:19,684 --> 00:35:21,519
That's a lot better.
742
00:35:28,025 --> 00:35:31,529
Well, that was quite
the nerve-racking feeling,
743
00:35:31,529 --> 00:35:33,998
but we got it up,
744
00:35:33,998 --> 00:35:35,633
we didn't tear
anything off the thing.
745
00:35:35,633 --> 00:35:37,635
She's on the road,
and she's ready to go.
746
00:35:39,504 --> 00:35:41,172
[Gary]
Looks like he's got it out.
747
00:35:41,172 --> 00:35:43,007
That's great news.
748
00:35:43,007 --> 00:35:44,342
Always a proud moment as a dad
749
00:35:44,342 --> 00:35:46,878
handling a job like this
on his own.
750
00:35:48,112 --> 00:35:49,814
[Collin] I'm glad we've got
this truck up on the road
751
00:35:49,814 --> 00:35:52,150
without doing
any extra damage to it.
752
00:35:52,150 --> 00:35:54,685
Now we've got to focus
on the car carrier itself
753
00:35:54,685 --> 00:35:55,686
sitting on its side.
754
00:35:56,754 --> 00:35:58,356
[Narrator]
With the warmup behind him,
755
00:35:58,356 --> 00:36:01,692
it's time
for Collin's main event,
756
00:36:01,692 --> 00:36:03,995
and the push to open the road
757
00:36:03,995 --> 00:36:06,898
is getting even harder.
758
00:36:06,898 --> 00:36:07,965
[Gary] The pressure's on
759
00:36:07,965 --> 00:36:09,500
when the snow plows
are backing up,
760
00:36:09,500 --> 00:36:12,470
so I better get this thing
out of the way.
761
00:36:12,470 --> 00:36:13,704
Time crunch on this one.
762
00:36:13,704 --> 00:36:16,507
We're going to have
the morning rush coming in.
763
00:36:16,507 --> 00:36:17,675
[Gary] It's pretty critical
764
00:36:17,675 --> 00:36:20,611
that we get at least
a partial lane open
765
00:36:20,611 --> 00:36:22,680
so that these plows
can continue down the road.
766
00:36:23,714 --> 00:36:24,682
I want to get this
cleaned up,
767
00:36:24,682 --> 00:36:27,151
get this roadway opened up.
768
00:36:31,389 --> 00:36:34,492
[Collin] We're gonna have to
cut the straps, obviously.
769
00:36:34,492 --> 00:36:36,494
[Narrator]
In the middle of the 402,
770
00:36:36,494 --> 00:36:38,529
Collin is getting ready
771
00:36:38,529 --> 00:36:41,532
to start the most complex part
772
00:36:41,532 --> 00:36:45,703
of the most complex recovery
of his career...
773
00:36:45,703 --> 00:36:48,906
I need you guys to get me
some endless loops.
774
00:36:48,906 --> 00:36:51,509
[Narrator] ...but he can't
upright the trailer
775
00:36:51,509 --> 00:36:53,811
with all the cargo on board.
776
00:36:53,811 --> 00:36:54,946
[Collin] We're gonna remove
777
00:36:54,946 --> 00:36:56,480
the two vehicles
on the top of this trailer
778
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:57,648
with the rotator
779
00:36:57,648 --> 00:37:00,484
to help lighten the load
as we're rolling it over,
780
00:37:00,484 --> 00:37:02,553
but also to prevent
any further damage
781
00:37:02,553 --> 00:37:03,421
to these trucks.
782
00:37:04,422 --> 00:37:06,224
Gonna to have to slide
this way anyways
783
00:37:06,224 --> 00:37:07,758
to get it where it needs to be.
784
00:37:07,758 --> 00:37:09,560
[Narrator] He'll have to
ease the vehicles
785
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,195
off the trailer,
786
00:37:11,195 --> 00:37:13,564
then thread them
around the rotator,
787
00:37:13,564 --> 00:37:15,433
and onto the pavement,
788
00:37:15,433 --> 00:37:18,569
without doing
any damage on the way.
789
00:37:18,569 --> 00:37:20,004
[Collin] Everyone clear?
790
00:37:20,004 --> 00:37:21,906
-Clear.
-Okay.
791
00:37:23,107 --> 00:37:24,942
[Collin] I'm trying
to feather the trucks
792
00:37:24,942 --> 00:37:27,078
away from the trailer.
793
00:37:27,078 --> 00:37:30,748
I don't want them to swing
and hit the trailer,
794
00:37:30,748 --> 00:37:32,883
possibly do more damage
to the trucks.
795
00:37:34,619 --> 00:37:36,220
[Brian] I think it's gonna
wanna turn just like that.
796
00:37:36,220 --> 00:37:37,855
[Collin] That's what I want.
797
00:37:37,855 --> 00:37:40,524
Hopefully
it doesn't kick on us.
798
00:37:41,726 --> 00:37:44,562
Not going to like it
a whole lot.
799
00:37:44,562 --> 00:37:46,631
Watch yourselves, guys.
800
00:37:46,631 --> 00:37:48,799
That's between 4,000
and 6,000 pounds.
801
00:37:50,901 --> 00:37:52,870
Oh, don't do that.
802
00:37:52,870 --> 00:37:54,472
[Collin] The truck's swinging
803
00:37:54,472 --> 00:37:56,040
a lot more
than I was expecting it to.
804
00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:57,642
It's coming
right at the rotator.
805
00:37:57,642 --> 00:37:59,310
We don't want
to damage the truck.
806
00:38:02,713 --> 00:38:03,581
Okay.
807
00:38:03,581 --> 00:38:06,651
Hey, Bri, get me taglines?
808
00:38:10,955 --> 00:38:12,790
[Collin] So we're just putting
a catch line on there,
809
00:38:12,790 --> 00:38:15,293
so that when we start
to lift this thing,
810
00:38:15,293 --> 00:38:16,427
it doesn't swing too much.
811
00:38:18,596 --> 00:38:20,531
[Brian] Hey, you're fishin',
you caught a big one!
812
00:38:22,233 --> 00:38:23,901
[Narrator]
The plan is working,
813
00:38:23,901 --> 00:38:26,570
but it's eating up time.
814
00:38:26,570 --> 00:38:28,639
[Collin]
I'll grab the second one.
815
00:38:28,639 --> 00:38:31,242
We'll do the exact same thing.
816
00:38:34,345 --> 00:38:36,480
[Gary] All right,
cooperate, trailer.
817
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:39,016
[Narrator] 200 metres
down the road,
818
00:38:39,016 --> 00:38:41,218
Gary is in the home stretch.
819
00:38:41,218 --> 00:38:42,820
[Gary] Just come around,
820
00:38:42,820 --> 00:38:44,822
and let's make this happen.
821
00:38:44,822 --> 00:38:45,956
[Narrator]
He just needs to slide
822
00:38:45,956 --> 00:38:48,392
the back end of the semi
sideways
823
00:38:48,392 --> 00:38:51,529
to make room
for the waiting plows.
824
00:38:55,032 --> 00:38:56,634
[Gary] Like swinging a gate
825
00:38:56,634 --> 00:38:58,002
and opening the highway.
826
00:39:01,839 --> 00:39:03,507
Looks like they're coming.
827
00:39:11,449 --> 00:39:12,817
[Narrator]
A few minutes later...
828
00:39:12,817 --> 00:39:14,352
[Gary] How ya doin', bud?
829
00:39:14,352 --> 00:39:15,886
[Narrator]
...Gary's joined his son,
830
00:39:15,886 --> 00:39:19,690
but he's still letting Collin
make the big calls.
831
00:39:19,690 --> 00:39:21,659
What are you thinking
for the upright on this one?
832
00:39:21,659 --> 00:39:23,694
I'm thinking
a low spike on this
833
00:39:23,694 --> 00:39:25,463
just because the cage on the top
834
00:39:25,463 --> 00:39:26,997
is not very structural, right?
835
00:39:26,997 --> 00:39:29,367
So I don't want to damage that.
836
00:39:29,367 --> 00:39:30,668
Just park the rotator
back here,
837
00:39:30,668 --> 00:39:32,336
and just bring 'er right over,
spike 'er right down.
838
00:39:32,336 --> 00:39:33,404
Yup.
839
00:39:33,404 --> 00:39:36,707
I think that's going to be
our best bet.
840
00:39:38,676 --> 00:39:41,145
[Narrator] Collin
wants to use two lines
841
00:39:41,145 --> 00:39:43,147
to pull down on the trailer...
842
00:39:43,147 --> 00:39:45,750
a strap to roll it upward...
843
00:39:45,750 --> 00:39:48,986
and a fourth line
for a soft landing.
844
00:39:53,090 --> 00:39:55,059
[Collin] Round two!
845
00:39:55,059 --> 00:39:56,093
[Gary]
It's actually really neat
846
00:39:56,093 --> 00:39:57,995
to see Collin
lead this recovery,
847
00:39:57,995 --> 00:39:59,930
and it's something
I've never even done.
848
00:40:01,298 --> 00:40:04,869
[Collin] I definitely feel
a lot of pressure.
849
00:40:04,869 --> 00:40:06,404
There's a lot going on
with this recovery.
850
00:40:07,505 --> 00:40:10,241
Hopefully this is gonna be
the last lift for the night.
851
00:40:10,241 --> 00:40:11,375
Get this thing up and over.
852
00:40:12,510 --> 00:40:13,611
It's gonna go over?
Is that what you want?
853
00:40:13,611 --> 00:40:14,712
Yeah, let's go over.
854
00:40:14,712 --> 00:40:15,746
It's been a long night,
855
00:40:15,746 --> 00:40:16,847
temperature's starting to drop,
856
00:40:16,847 --> 00:40:17,915
a little snow coming in.
857
00:40:17,915 --> 00:40:20,351
[Collin] We're all getting
pretty tired.
858
00:40:20,351 --> 00:40:21,552
We've been going all day,
859
00:40:21,552 --> 00:40:23,421
and now all night.
860
00:40:23,421 --> 00:40:26,791
You know, we're really
running on adrenaline right now.
861
00:40:26,791 --> 00:40:28,726
Just running
a couple lines here,
862
00:40:28,726 --> 00:40:29,727
a catch line,
863
00:40:29,727 --> 00:40:30,861
a couple lower lines.
864
00:40:30,861 --> 00:40:32,930
Hopefully it comes down
nice and smooth.
865
00:40:34,298 --> 00:40:36,267
I think what you're
going to have a hard time
866
00:40:36,267 --> 00:40:37,334
is catching.
867
00:40:37,334 --> 00:40:39,136
[Gary]
It's a pretty tight space
868
00:40:39,136 --> 00:40:40,438
that we're dealing with.
869
00:40:40,438 --> 00:40:42,273
I'm going with that.
870
00:40:42,273 --> 00:40:43,307
[Gary] If we miss this,
871
00:40:43,307 --> 00:40:45,309
we could actually
hit the wrecker itself,
872
00:40:45,309 --> 00:40:46,544
so I marked it
with a water bottle.
873
00:40:46,544 --> 00:40:48,979
Hopefully we can hit the mark
right on
874
00:40:48,979 --> 00:40:50,247
and land this thing
where we want it.
875
00:40:52,550 --> 00:40:55,486
[Collin] It's going to be
a technical rollover,
876
00:40:55,486 --> 00:40:57,087
but we'll see
what she wants to do.
877
00:40:57,087 --> 00:41:00,958
I wanna land it
nice and soft, so...
878
00:41:00,958 --> 00:41:03,327
go from there.
879
00:41:03,327 --> 00:41:05,129
Fingers crossed.
880
00:41:13,571 --> 00:41:15,139
[Narrator]
On the westbound 402,
881
00:41:15,139 --> 00:41:18,976
the Preferred crew
is about to mark a first
882
00:41:18,976 --> 00:41:20,744
in company history...
883
00:41:20,744 --> 00:41:22,313
[Collin] I gotta lead
with that side anyways.
884
00:41:22,313 --> 00:41:24,315
That's the only spot
I'm gonna get any traction.
885
00:41:24,315 --> 00:41:25,382
[Gary] Okay.
886
00:41:25,382 --> 00:41:26,617
I'm good with that.
887
00:41:26,617 --> 00:41:29,153
[Narrator]
...and Gary is trusting his son
888
00:41:29,153 --> 00:41:30,654
to lead the charge.
889
00:41:33,891 --> 00:41:36,660
[Collin] This is the first time
I've done a car carrier.
890
00:41:42,933 --> 00:41:44,335
Everything is snugged.
891
00:41:44,335 --> 00:41:45,803
[Collin] It's a scary feeling
892
00:41:45,803 --> 00:41:48,839
to try something
that you've never done.
893
00:41:48,839 --> 00:41:51,675
Oh, I hate car carriers.
894
00:41:51,675 --> 00:41:52,943
All right.
895
00:41:52,943 --> 00:41:54,678
[Gary] When you're catching
a trailer like this,
896
00:41:54,678 --> 00:41:57,014
that is a really
tough manoeuvre.
897
00:41:57,014 --> 00:41:58,449
I'll stand here,
898
00:41:58,449 --> 00:42:00,484
you can watch
that back corner.
899
00:42:00,484 --> 00:42:02,319
[Gary] You have a point
of no return.
900
00:42:02,319 --> 00:42:03,320
When it starts to fall,
901
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:05,422
you have to be there
with the catch.
902
00:42:05,422 --> 00:42:07,558
If you're not,
it's gonna come down hard.
903
00:42:08,959 --> 00:42:10,928
[Collin] Everyone clear?
I'm gonna pull.
904
00:42:14,498 --> 00:42:17,201
[Collin] When you've got
four lines running,
905
00:42:17,201 --> 00:42:19,236
you've gotta make sure
that every single one
906
00:42:19,236 --> 00:42:21,472
is doing the part
that you need it to,
907
00:42:21,472 --> 00:42:23,207
and that one's not getting
too carried away.
908
00:42:23,207 --> 00:42:24,642
So it's like playing a piano,
909
00:42:24,642 --> 00:42:25,709
you've gotta make sure
910
00:42:25,709 --> 00:42:27,511
that all your fingers
are in sync,
911
00:42:27,511 --> 00:42:29,280
or it's going to come down,
912
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:30,915
and it's going to
shock-load the truck.
913
00:42:32,483 --> 00:42:35,219
Nice and gentle.
914
00:42:35,219 --> 00:42:36,220
Get your catch there,
915
00:42:36,220 --> 00:42:37,221
'cause it's coming quick, eh?
916
00:42:37,221 --> 00:42:38,289
[Collin] Yeah.
917
00:42:38,289 --> 00:42:40,457
[creaking]
918
00:42:52,870 --> 00:42:54,305
Here she comes.
919
00:42:54,305 --> 00:42:55,506
You got the catch on it, Coll?
920
00:42:55,506 --> 00:42:56,674
-Yeah.
-Okay.
921
00:42:56,674 --> 00:42:59,276
[Narrator] He needs
to set it down gently,
922
00:42:59,276 --> 00:43:02,813
and precisely in the tight space
available.
923
00:43:02,813 --> 00:43:04,882
[Collin] The catch is tight.
924
00:43:04,882 --> 00:43:07,217
[Gary] Okay, let off
on the catch slowly,
925
00:43:07,217 --> 00:43:08,986
see if that gives you anything.
926
00:43:08,986 --> 00:43:09,820
There you go.
927
00:43:09,820 --> 00:43:11,555
[Collin] I got 'er.
928
00:43:11,555 --> 00:43:13,557
Just work between
the catch and the roll,
929
00:43:13,557 --> 00:43:15,659
and you got it.
There it is.
930
00:43:15,659 --> 00:43:18,162
Nice.
931
00:43:22,399 --> 00:43:25,169
Two inches
off on my water bottle.
932
00:43:25,169 --> 00:43:26,437
[Collin] That was pretty good.
933
00:43:26,437 --> 00:43:27,571
Nice roll,
934
00:43:27,571 --> 00:43:28,872
came down, he caught it,
935
00:43:28,872 --> 00:43:30,107
soft landing,
936
00:43:30,107 --> 00:43:32,242
just the way
we like to see them.
937
00:43:32,242 --> 00:43:34,445
I like the soft landings.
938
00:43:35,546 --> 00:43:36,780
[Gary]
This was a super smooth catch
939
00:43:36,780 --> 00:43:38,549
on this particular one,
940
00:43:38,549 --> 00:43:39,817
and really tough,
941
00:43:39,817 --> 00:43:42,186
being something
that I haven't even done before,
942
00:43:42,186 --> 00:43:44,455
so... pretty proud of him.
943
00:43:44,455 --> 00:43:46,090
Now we gotta just
944
00:43:46,090 --> 00:43:48,192
get everything
de-rigged off this thing,
945
00:43:48,192 --> 00:43:50,227
and get it outta here.
946
00:43:51,261 --> 00:43:52,463
[Narrator] It's a long way
947
00:43:52,463 --> 00:43:54,598
from pulling cars
out of the mud,
948
00:43:54,598 --> 00:43:56,900
but still just the beginning
949
00:43:56,900 --> 00:43:59,603
of Collin's journey.
950
00:44:00,604 --> 00:44:02,306
That's why we do it.
951
00:44:02,306 --> 00:44:03,974
[Gary] It's nice to see
952
00:44:03,974 --> 00:44:06,710
that he's building
on what he knows.
953
00:44:06,710 --> 00:44:08,445
He's becoming
a real skilled operator.
954
00:44:08,445 --> 00:44:11,482
Oh, yeah, I like it.
955
00:44:11,482 --> 00:44:14,451
It's a pretty
rewarding feeling, for sure.
956
00:44:14,451 --> 00:44:17,154
You led, you did a good job.
957
00:44:17,154 --> 00:44:18,522
Thanks.
958
00:44:18,522 --> 00:44:19,790
All right,
let's bring 'em home.
959
00:44:19,790 --> 00:44:20,958
Sounds good.
960
00:44:22,292 --> 00:44:25,496
[Collin] This is definitely
a job for the books.
961
00:44:25,496 --> 00:44:27,931
I've never seen
something like this before,
962
00:44:27,931 --> 00:44:30,134
and it was a pretty interesting,
963
00:44:30,134 --> 00:44:31,168
involving recovery.
964
00:44:32,136 --> 00:44:34,304
The team did really well on it,
965
00:44:34,304 --> 00:44:36,473
and now we get to go home
and have some rest.
966
00:44:37,508 --> 00:44:39,843
[Gary] Well, I'm definitely
calling that one a win.
967
00:44:39,843 --> 00:44:42,346
[Collin] Time to go home.
968
00:44:42,346 --> 00:44:44,415
[honks twice]
969
00:44:51,522 --> 00:44:54,758
[Narrator] Next time
on Heavy Rescue: 401...
970
00:44:54,758 --> 00:44:55,859
[OPP officer]
That's a different one.
971
00:44:55,859 --> 00:44:57,027
[Narrator] ...hot pursuit...
972
00:44:57,027 --> 00:44:59,697
Apparently they were actually
calling 911 just now.
973
00:44:59,697 --> 00:45:00,764
[Narrator] ...takes a turn.
974
00:45:00,764 --> 00:45:02,332
Gotta look into this
a little bit further.
975
00:45:02,332 --> 00:45:03,600
[Mitch] It's stinky.
976
00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:04,601
[Narrator] Mitch...
977
00:45:04,601 --> 00:45:06,704
[coughing]
This stuff can't be good for us.
978
00:45:06,704 --> 00:45:08,372
[Narrator]
...faces a pile of problems...
979
00:45:08,372 --> 00:45:10,207
[Mitch] Makes me
wanna go back to school
980
00:45:10,207 --> 00:45:11,275
and work at a desk.
981
00:45:11,275 --> 00:45:12,943
[Narrator]
...and father and son...
982
00:45:12,943 --> 00:45:13,877
[Gary]
It's gonna break any second.
983
00:45:14,745 --> 00:45:16,547
[Narrator] ...get blown away.
984
00:45:16,547 --> 00:45:18,782
[Collin] Holy crap,
this is insane.
985
00:45:21,552 --> 00:45:24,021
