D. there were a couple of vehicles with some $$ in them, so I assume there was some "Experience" standing around yet these mistakes went on.

This was a seriously Deadly situation, every one should watch this video and learn from it...
I did notice 1 positive aspect - can anyone point it out?

You know just because you see money in trucks dont mean theres "Experience" because i see alot of money in trucks and stupidty in the drivers. What my point is dont judge a book by its cover.




Fair enough, but if you have it you should know how to use it (that's why they pack instructions) yet I see Hi-Lift jacks on vehicles that never come off the rig, winches that still have paint on the cables etc...
Doesnt make sense to me to have it and not know how/when to use it.



This video however appears to be "Experienced" people making some wrong decisions.
this happens too, and thats the part that concerns me.  The wrecker operator should have DEFINATELY known better.  Just my .02

Damn dude, that happened to me. The eyelet on a TOW STRAP(i know i know I shouldn't have used it) snapped and smoked my buddies brand new Chevy 1500. Luckily someone had a 6 inch strap and pulled me out. Don't use a TOW STRAP when you need a recovery strap. Also, someone could have used that as a tow strap. Most of those trucks had decent looking tires, they could have all hooked together somehow and pulled as one. Sure that would have gotten the little jeep out.

You can only go as far as your truck will take you
