I noticed that too, regardless....... it picked up quite a bit of speed in a short distance, the first guy would have had a bit of poo come out

a recovery gone wrong maybe?

I watched it a few times and couldn't see a strap connected to the ute so NFI why he was facing the other way other than gtfo

look real carefully on full screen and you can just see a snatch strap

Bird · July 15, 2013, 11:10:17 AM

yep, looks that way, twisted as Shit too!

I bet he got changed in a real hurry, lucky it headed for the bank, I wonder what damage was done after the stop

If he had seat covers on his seats, he doesn't anymore.. They've been sucked up where the sun don't shine..

Would love to see the end result..

Stuff their undies - I need to change mine after watching that.

Cheers,
Matto

I stand corrected

Didnt look that bad, all of three seconds of the video shown.........

Well that at least explains why the camper stayed so straight while sliding backwards down the track and not jack knifing.

I would have been interesting commentary. Makes you wonder just what they were trying to do?

duggie · July 15, 2013, 07:06:08 PM

My guess would be that he had help pull the down facing 4x4 back on to the road after the down facing 4x4 had slipped of the road. Once straight the wet/slippery conditions allowed the downward facing 4x4 to slip further down the slope towing the Nissan and camp trailer with it.

alnjan · July 15, 2013, 08:06:32 PM

If that was the case maybe a winchwould be the safer option from the start. Hard to say without all the info.
