on the video looked like the guy in the front was holding a rifle case, road tires.
So would they have done if they didn't have a plb?

Flooded rivers get you with the base load. Bottom half of the river is sand and gravel flowing, not water. Those guys are very dumb. Often wonder about people with no natural aversion to these things. How keen do you need to be?
I have this thing about people not yelling around vehicles and machinery. What ever caused the spaz, it's not as bad as the spaz will cause.
Half an hour ago, foreman for a roaring gang is going off. Swearing and yelling. Digger operator fell into a trench he was straddling. Seen it so many times.

Not so much a transport having an oops moment as me. My dumbass mounted the top snorkle bracket to the door not the fram Attachment 110484

In and out like the Dukes of hazards :thumbsup:
It brings me great joy to see that someone else fucks up nearly as often as I do
That's a box.

What did you do about the holes in the door?
Bluetack
Currently over filled the holes with silicone. Temporary fix, will most likely sand it back, bog it and paintQuote:

It’s the dwarf drinking beer while driving a tractor that distracts them.Quote:

One of the guys had a brain fart idea on a Saturday morning of connecting a size D oxy cylinder with reg to the carb on his car. Think it was a Mitzi Cordia Turbo.Started the engine and increased the pressure. Revs went up so good to go. Came back a little while later. Caught fire and had to use extinguisher he took for the ride

Probably an ex tanker driver......... Or one about to apply
More info please, looks like he is stuck there, but wtf was he doing there, is it a normal crossing place gone bad or is it little toot in real life???
Don’t know the story, but Waimak River between the bridges.
Wrong turn,GPS,half hr break, checking for whitebait?????......
Very stuck, took more than the towtruck I heard.
Best thing is it weren’t me
Wonder if he was drug tested......
I think he could have been testing some drugs.Quote:

There is a bridge construction site behind the yellow and red in the second picture with a large crane. It is possible that there was a delivery to there and the truck needed to turn around to get out. On the upside, they have diggers there constantly moving the gravel for the crane to move along the river bed so the heavy equipment is there to free the truck up....The crane could almost have lifted the truck back onto the bridge....Quote:

While you dont see the bridge in this one you can see the extent of the work they are undertaking...
