This Bike Went Off A Cliff
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 сен 2024
- We got a call about a motorcycle that has fallen off a cliff. The rider had been thrown off and the bike fell about 100' down to the bottom. So we loaded up the trailer and some steel to make a boom off the back of the trailer. Mike has experience in rock climbing so we had him bring his climbing gear to repel down to the bike to rig it up. Once rigged up we used the jeep to pull the bike up. Then after picking up all the broken pieces of the bike we hoisted Mike back up. Then loaded the bike up on the trailer and hauled it down to the customer in the parking lot. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

Absolutely amazing work guys. I can't thank you guys enough! That is my bike (2023 Husky TE 250) and I never thought I'd see it again. You guys are true professionals.
Believe it or not... which I did not. The frame and motor are intact and we plan to rebuild and re-attack the trails next season.
This event broke my heart *(and gave just a small taste of mortality). It was an easy section of the trail and just a freak accident that I would have road away from anywhere else.
Thank you guys again. I can't wait to get her back together and come buy you guys some drinks next season.
Stay safe and keep up the amazing work!!!
We are glad you were ok and we could get it out without further damage. Look forward to seeing you next year.
Glad you are ok. Not sure how it went but if the bike could go you were too close for comfort. I recently ran myself of a 10ft cliff and landed just past vertical straight into the ground less than 2ft from the cliff face. It was like diving off a diving board into a pool only to find there was no water in it just after take off. I'm recovering but the bike had nothing more than a few scratches. Stuff happens and we ride again.
Post a vid of the bike damage. Not so often that particular crash test is done.
@motofunk1 my plan is to document the rebuild as best I can. It will make for a great story and really give the bike some "character " lol.
Yeah, it was pretty heart shattering watching her slowly slide over the edge. I'm truly amazed at how durable these things can apparently be.
That's awesome man. Post to build or let the team know. In curious to see what you do with it.
When my bike was wrecked after a truck ran me off the highway I rebuild it. The frame was actually fine and it was mostly cosmetic damage so we rebuilt the thing new forks new rear control arm and new wheels and tires along with custom handle bars. Gave it some personal touches along with keeping the old tank since the dent was shaped like my hand. As a moment of the dangers of rideing on public roads.
Wow your lucky 🍀 stuff happens be safe
Just when you think you can't get any more "off-road" than Moab, Mike rappels off a 300ft cliff to extract a vehicle....major props to you guys, amazing team work and ingenuity!!
Well, the LEAST he should have done is run off the cliff forwards, and rappel at about 30mph, y'know? That's safe, isn't it? ;) Well done, guys.
No offense to other off road recovery folks but this team is unreal. Great planning and safety; Mike showed some skills, that wasn't easy. Well done you guys!
Mike is a savant hidden in that little life form but great crew 👍🏻 I like it to A'HO Respect 🙏🏻 LONEWOLF CANADA 🇨🇦
I’ve said it before, this recovery team is at another level completely. 👍
Mike has some big marbles to do this.
100%
I couldn't have said it better myself 👍
Awesome job and thanks for the shoutout!
But I don’t know if taking tips from a guy who tried it once and somehow made it work is the best idea 😂
Also, I’m jealous of your solid one piece rocks. Our Jenga pile volcanic cliffs freak me out lol
A questionable win is still a win. Lol.
If it worked out for Casey then the concept has merit for Rory and anyone else that has the means, the personnel and getter done attitude.
Thank you for the shout out to Casey LaDelle. I watched that video a while back, and thought that this rescue looked familiar. I love the way you just fabricate stuff out in the middle of nowhere.
Oh, and if you ever need holes put in steel with the welder, just call me! Just have me try to weld something to something else, and you'll have more holes than you know what to do with.
Giving Casey credit is top shelf. You guys all work together even if you're in different parts of the country . Know matter what the profession sharing is caring.
top shelf indeed!
Nice Recovery... Sharing and Learning from one another is what it's all about as well!
Yeah when i saw that i thought of the video on the cleanup...and sure enough he gives the props... ++
It's inconceivable to me that this channel doesn't have like 5M subs. The BEST original, no nonsense, REAL content anywhere! Every video is amazing, exciting, fun, and funny! Casey LaDelle ❤️!
Was thinking the same thing or at least a million.
And you just can't beat the scenery.
Absolutely
I think it will in time. Matt's channel blew up in a couple years.
I couldn’t agree more. Best channel on RUclips.
That was a nice gesture to credit Casey LaDelle with the method of retrieving that bike from where it was. What is really good about RUclips is that you guys help each other and encourage each other. The camaraderie is wonderful to see. Great job by Mike using his rappelling skills.
Casey's channel has a similar vibe. No nonsense recoveries getting done.
@@Fix_It_Again_Tony It has gotten bad with electric bikes, batter supplies and refrigerator/freezers and the like.
@@iffykidmn8170 so...Casey's had about three or four videos along those lines this year. I wouldn't call that "gotten bad". I'd call it "making a living". Stuff like that allows him to do recoveries at no charge. He's also not in Moab where there's an endless supply of recovery job to be had. And maybe some of us like seeing him do a few thing other than recoveries.
@@bripslag Plus he seems to be extremely honest in his reviews of stuff with no fluff.
@@bripslag and some of us dont, to each their own.
This channel just keeps getting better and better! Mike is a pretty talented guy … videographer extraordinaire, mountain climber, comedian … 😀 Hope this team of yours stays together, Rory. Stay safe guys!
Don’t forget about biologist. We would never have known about the Diamond Billed Rockpecker without Mike.
@dennispalmer6007 Right. I also forgot pyrologist … Mike definitely studies fire … what with his smudge pots and double stove chimneys turning cherry red. 😀
Next week, we find out Mike is a literal rocket scientist like Tom Tom over at Matts
@@UmmmmmmmWhat Nuclear scientist - our rockets don't use fission (yet)!
This goes to show, that Mike is not just a pretty face like Tom Cruise. He also does his own stunts! Nice recovery, thank you for sharing!
Wow!
I’m speechless.
That was awesome. One day when a baby Rockpecker falls out of its nest, we know who to call. Great work everyone, thanks for sharing.
Mike is a real Moab Renaissance Man! Rory I know you have the grips for climbing but you are an earth bound misfit like me. You all have out done yourselves, bravo!
You guys just keep outdoing yourselves on recoveries. Rory is a smart enough guy to take an idea from someone else's playbook and make sure to give them credit and thanks. Gotta love Cascade Heavy Rescue, he gets into some hairy rescues as well. Sure glad that guy didn't go down with the bike, that would have been a sad, bad outcome. Y'all had some beautiful weather and gorgeous scenery to enjoy while making yet another job look dog gone easy. Can't thank you all enough for what it takes for us to tag along, it is so appreciated. Stay safe and GOD bless
"Casey - We Love Ya!" Visions of memes and stickers and tee shirts.... LOL Great recovery, team!
Thanks for giving Casey LaDelle a shoutout!
Another Fine Example of team work. Giving credit to Casey was a GOOD thing
You can easily identify the pro team. 75% preparation gets you to the job with the confidence that your skills and experience will almost certainly get you the rest of the way to success. Nicely done.
“I like snacks” I’m pretty sure I died from laughing!🤣💀
Mike for the win. Team Rory ain’t got no back trouble, you know yellow stripes so wide. Much respect to living life well.
Mike hang in there. My father taught me how to tie about ten different knots behind my back. Which I could do years before I went into the Coast Guard. In basic training in knot tying class; Instructor said: The most important thing about tying a knot is you don't ever tie one that you don't trust your own life too. Because someone else will expect for there lives to depend on it.. I've highline people with injuries off of side of a cliff to a Coast Guard vessel. Repelled down the side of the superstructure of ships de rusting and painting; the bridge wings on ships can be 100 feet above the main deck. When underway rolling side to side 20 degrees. One minute derusting/painting second's later suspended over the ocean in fourteenth-century technology. Sitting on piece of wood supported by ropes referred to as a bosun's chair, as a deep sea Merchant Sailor. Enjoyed the video😊
WAY TO GO MIKE!!!!!!!! Rory's got the best team. Another Trail Mater first!
Mike had a great support team this recovery. 😂
Great job as always Trailmater team.👍
So glad the rider bailed. A few years ago, a lady friend of mine, an extremely experienced rider, somehow got crossed up and whisky throttled off a cliff. RIP Anne…… Please, Please, PLEASE be careful!
If you’ve been to Moab you know the camera doesn’t do the landscape justice. If you haven’t been to Moab, I highly suggest you go and rent a side by side or a jeep.
You guys have an amazing job!!
Backhanded comment for this video. "Mike is a lot smarter than he looks."
Another rigging masterpiece. Nicely done! ! !
Mike you are a Stud!!!
Officially the coolest video on you tube!
This recovery has it ALL!!!
I love the fact that all of the "RUclips Mafia" learns from one another and gives credit to where it is due. Great job
That was a gem of a recovery! If you hadn't retrieved that bike, the diamond-billed rockpeckers would have drilled it full of holes by morning. Maybe even made a nest out of it! That Mike is amazing!
Fishing for motorcycles, and using Mike to bait the hook!😀
Using a boom is a great idea, you should build one into the trailer. Set it up to be removable and store able so it's always there if needed.
Now THAT was a cool recovery.
“…and now for something completely different. “
Trail Mater, the Honey Badger of off road recovery trucks.
I’m always a happier guy when I see a Trail Mater Rorycon video up on the tube.
the look on everyone's face, including the dog @15:50 when Trailmater went up that incline with ease 😅😅
You all are badasses, stay safe and Shawn, leave some Aunties for us hahaha
Mike nailed it. 🏁 I also love how Casey was given credit at the end. This video was all win.
When I seen Rory with his make shift harness at the end clip I thought of the song " I came in like a wreckin ball"
haha What an incredible job pulled off by the A-Team wow, you guys made it look smooth great work!
One of the best recoveries ever. Mike's skills as a climber set apart the Trailmater team from all others. It was fun to watch!
You guys are true professionals, and I mean that in all aspects. Mike even picked up the trash left by the bike. You love the land as much as we love it. Thank you all...
“Moab Superstars” possibly my favorite video to date. I love all of the different skills you guys have.
Mike has many interesting back stories 🙂...as I am sure Shawn and Rory do too, but that will be another day 🙂 I just 'hope' Rory had a safety strap as the bike finally reached the trailer.. and a GREAT clean-up job Mike... even though it was in a location that no one will ever see... but it needed to be done because you guys are the best! 🙂
I really like the post-credits scenes. Always entertaining, Shawn nailed it with the swish swish judy chops at the end, lol...
Mike stood where not many have before him! Awesome!
Bravo Mike and everyone. Team effort
Kudos to Mike for even taking a camera down with him. Nice teamwork by all!
Mike does ROCK STUFF
😂 What a relief. Having seen that, I now can go ride my dirt bike in Moab safely. Nothing bad can happen🎉
Absolute legends, boy I hope this trio stays together for a long long time.
Awesome recovery. Seems like every video we discover the multiple talents of Rory, Sean and Mike. I am in awe of your true friendship and work ethic.
Rory and Mike and Shawn y'all did a Awesome job and Mike had all the fun.
Mike, the man of many talents 🤘🤘
This is off-road recovery to a whole new level. That's some weapons-grade bravery by Mike right there! Kid on the sidelines as Trail Mater climbs the shelf; "WOW"
This was a great episode! You guys rock the off road recovery world. Mike gets employee of the day for sure, major props.
God, Rory is just the best. He has a plan when he's still ten miles out, then executes it perfectly.
Like a true gentleman! Giving credit where credit is due! Great job on the recovery! Great job covering the recovery! Some heros don't wear capes, just super awesome suits of steel! Made with blood, sweat, and tears! Thank you for sharing. My favorite part is TRLM8R breezing by the Mall Crawlers 😂
Mike the spider man...Great job recovering this bike...rider was lucky...
Great ingenuity...thx
That was awesome. I watch all you recovery videos and I think this is one of the best. Great job.
Nice call putting the wrecker sideways to the trailer. Locks it in position pretty well.
🤩And Mike asked for ideas for what we want to see on his channel? All types of rock climbing and crawling for sure💥
Trailmaeter Team = King of the Hills !! Great job guys. 😊😊
The Trail Mater crew for the win with another great recovery. With you all it's safety first then creativity, then we bring out everybody super skills. Great job Mike on that rappel.
Spider Mike Spider Mike does what a Spider does. 😉😆
Another epic adventure well done Mike, Rory and Shawn, Job well done, guys. 🤘
Good recovery and great acknowledgement to Casey, Nice 1 guys!
TrailMater, the perfect crew and equipment for the job.👏👏👏
Used to think I had a fear of heights. But a good friend, who is a roofer by trade, said it’s not fear, it’s called getting smarter with age! Fantastic job you guys. Mike, you are the man! 👍
Heck, I must be super smart and over 100yo, because some of the places Mater gets still scare the bejeebers out of me.
There is a part within the fear of heights that is worrying you might jump. One term I’ve found for it is “High Places Phenomenon”.
WOW!!! This is like watching an episode of Thunderbirds... without the explosions... so exciting!!! Way to go fellas!!!
Great job for all involved. Mike’s the man. Couldn’t be done without Rory and Shawn. Great recovery. The bike is history.
It was pretty cool watching this video. It was something different instead of just rock crawling all the time. Thanks!
Variety is the spice of life!!
Mike is a solid climber !!
The guy knows his stuff !!
Coming from a guy rappelling and climbing professionally for 34 years.
So no one was hurt in the making of this content. Man oh man that was a very lucky guy. Great recovery, thanks for sharing 😅.
It's impossible to overstate how cool you guys are.
Rock. On.
Trail Mater squeaks so much it sounds like classic Jazz music over an AM radio!
Wonderfully executed and fantastic camera work !!
Well done !!
Wow, this was exciting! I hope Mike earned a bonus for this. Hidden talents!!!
Knew Mike was a climber, got that climbers' build.
Mike needs a raise. Unreal!
Great team work, good job Mike 👍👏
Class Act..... Giving Kudos to Casey....... Another great video. Who'da thunk - A Rock Climber on a bike recovery...... Very unique.... THANKS....
As rappels go it was actually pretty easy, but being alone into otherwise unreachable territory with only one way back out adds an extra sense of adventure. Loved to see the good form - double safeties everywhere possible. Rock climbers are used to being lowered, but I don't think that many can say they've been winched out. Very cool recovery, glad you could share this one!
Taking the elevator back up is cheating.
He took the elevator!
@@kathyparsons2934 only because the escalater wasn't working.
@@kd5nrh True enough but I'll take that way than using ascenders every day of the week, and twice on Sunday!
Great shout out to Casey! Great job guys!
Been a fan for a while now, seen a lot of recoveries. Even starting to recognize some of the trails and such. But this, this was something truly different. Well executed, everyone safe, well done!
I love that you included KC. Give credit where credit's due perfect. 👍👍👍
These guys are really the best, every time someone brings up Matt's channel I tell em' to head on over here to watch the real work getting done.
When Rory was reaching out from the trailer to pull the bike in, I was so hoping he had a safety rope! I was on the edge of my seat for this rescue. Nice work guys. You all have hidden skills.
Man-a-live! the power of those dad shoes create the foothold, planning, communication, action; leading to the outstanding recovery the team of 3 have!! 😀 OUTSTANDING!
So nice to mention Casy in this context!
Another Flawless victory brought to you by Rory's Raiders 💪
Rory, Mike, and Shawn are the best off-road recovery pros ever. When you've got a Trail Shaman and a Mountain Man in your team, you can do anything 🤙
So glad to see the extra safety measures taken on mikes part and wearing a helmet. Great call on that and kudos for no additional bike or property damage!!! Another job well done fellas
Very cool recovery. Good teamwork.
10:19 on, there is no need for suspense music!
That SwEeCk,,, SwEeCk,,, SwEeCk...... ! OMG! Awesome!
That was a cool video guys
Great job the way you guys work together 👍🏼
Cracked me up when you said he was watching utube videos all the way to the recovery sight!
Bike and Mike both off cliff. See Mike in a different light now, badass dude 😎👍
Your a bunch of guys with hidden talents. Great recovery
Rory knows his equipment. Dude and team has sum huge cajones 👍👍👍
Very exciting and interesting video from the normal adventurous mayhem. Awesome recovery Rory. There's not enough money in the bank to get me hanging off a string like a spider to rescue a piece of junk. Kudos to you Mike
Great job guys, you are a hell of a team and it was cool to give a shout out to Casey.
Great show guys! Always somehing new to appreciate. Mike did somethig I would NEVER do!
Mike, you are a courageous man, as are all of you,.......... rock on boss.
way to go Mike, and the whole team. Fun to watch as well - what a recovery
Mike is turning into the Dark Horse on this channel, The Moab Man of Mystery.
