Matt I've done a LOT of abseiling rope work and highly suggest to send one of your crew on a Rope Work/Climbing/Mountaineering course to keep you all safe. Add some "Harnesses and Dynamic Rope + Karibiners" to your equipment. Anyone working that edge should be "roped in". Blessings to you and your crew!
If you could even get them to watch few a youtube videos on the topic and get some basic gear it would be a dramatic improviement.
I can't imagine his insurance agent watching.
And looks to me like they are relying on luck … push luck too many time and …I hope they start taking safety seriously, and soon.
1000% correct. Six years experience in mountain Search And Rescue in New Mexico, we never let our teammates stand on the edge untethered.
I am glad someone with experience commented on this. I am a commercial contractor and I have to get down right nasty sometimes with my subs to get them in a harness. Even worse, they will put the harness on and never attach it to anything. A 20ft drop will kill you under the right conditions. They are working off the side of a mountain. No way in hell would I let my guys put themselves in that situation, let alone put them there myself.
Matt, I've done some sketchy tower climbing and rigging in my earlier life, but NEVER without a basic lineman's belt. You, basically absailing down that clifface, just holding on with bare hands, was nuts. I'm sure if Jaimie had been on scene, she'd have had plenty to say about it. You owe it to her, your family, and your crews to get at least a couple of safety harneses in each rig for scenes such as this. Just think what they would have had to witness if you had, lost your footing, lost your grip, or any of a half dozen reasons for you to tumble A over T down that slope and then THEY have to rescue YOU from the crevasse at the bottom.
PLEASE TAKE CARE ?
As an ex roofer I'd have thought that safety gear would be mandatory and first in your mind and training if UOSH had, had any part in your life.
This comment needs more upvotes.
Yes, this was absolutely ridiculous on his part! If he slipped he would be dead!
Also Rhett standing below that thing while it scrapes on the clifface.
**WELL SAID!!!** My experience is in Mountain Rescue. The risks that were taken here are the sort of behaviors that kept guys like me busy. I've seen too many broken or dead bodies of people who behaved so casually on rock. Helmets, harness, belay line and training are not optional, they keep people alive and un-broken.
Ouch!
Dude, Matt, you are a smart guy. Why did you let those kids stand directly below that rig? 5 years of watching and this is the first time I've ever wondered what the hell you were thinking.
I get what you're saying but I'm pretty sure its mostly the angle of the camera. They are on the far side, up off the bottom, and down hill is actually to the right not towards them. There are definitely better places for them to be though.
havent u seen the time the former camera guy had to jump to the side to not get run over by a vehicle?
Watch something else if you can't handle it
@@buddysshop1860 That was STUPID to let her stand there.
This is a death waiting to happen. Safety on this job was out the window. Between multiple people being below it in the canyon, repelling without a harness, etc... as a Firefighter, I would highly recommend you have a trained safety officer in charge of every recovery working with the incident commander (Matt) to ensure safety. Machine is already a loss, no need to add a loss of life to that Tally. Also, recommend a high angle rescue and ropes course training for at least 2 individuals for these types of incidents. Nobody is perfect, but no machine is worth an injury to anyone.
You ain’t lying. Not criticizing but pucker factor is off the scale. I would hate to see any one of these kids getting hurt, including Matt. Yall need to put more emphasis on safety than recovery. IMO HUMBLY
They absolutely need to carry a harness or two. Even a lightweight climbing harness would do, and they would take up about as much space a soft shackle. Matt appeared to be descending with the winch unlocked, as opposed to winching out, on his first descent. Could the line hit a loose spot? Have a tangle that suddenly undoes, for instance? With him just holding that thin line - he didn't even put his hand through a loop - he could have been jolted and lost his grip. There's also the fact that MORR is a business, and they are putting unsafe work practices online for OSHA to see. Not quite the same, but there was that time when FabRats got into trouble with a government agency when they recovered that boat from the desert. We saw Rory and crew recover a dirt bike up a vertical cliff a while back - the one where they undercut Dave Sparks to prevent him bringing his OTT equipment in and wrecking the trail - and Rory's crew had much better safety practices. So, I totally agree with @lil'dogy (you so need that apostrophe in your ID dude) on this.
I'm a climber, and I spent the whole video thinking the same thing. If someone HAD gotten seriously hurt, it probably wouldn't have been a video, but this was definitely a "better lucky than good" job. And eventually luck runs out.
The OSHA and criminal investigation when Matt manages to get someone killed due to his total lack of concern for safety will be greatly aided by the extensive video.
Yeh, this vid needs to be shown as a What-not-to-do Training vid...ffs
That WAS A COMPLETE MIRACLE ON ALL FRONTS! For that guy to survive that fall, and Matt and crew not getting hurt, or worse, was miraculous.
Scary how the crew members wroked their way towards the edge there...with no safty gear rope...Holy. Crap.
We can complain about the tow points on these things but at least the cage, seats and straps worked pretty good.
well'
Everybody complains about the cage on the X3 and says you need to replace or strengthen it. Which I've never understood, it's 1 7/8 diameter bars, they're massive. But anyway that's a stock cage and it rolled down a cliff and held up. I do wonder if the driver had a helmet on, I can't imagine getting out of that without a concussion even strapped inside the cage without a helmet. That is a post 2022 (21? I forget) though, can am added a bunch of frame and roll cage strengthening that year.
@@xToddmcxunless his head was coming into physical contact with something a helmet would do very little if anything at all to prevent or mitigate a concussion.
Pretty cool that a seatbelt can pull a vehicle out from a wreck. No wonder they keep us still
@@FracturedNinja As a former drag racer, I can say that one of the points of contact can be the roll cage, especially if you are not strapped down tight.
All the years I've been watching this is the most insane recovery. I'm hoping in the future we see some safety harnesses.😮👍🏻
Chill out, princess.
This 😮😮😮😮😮
When Matt said to put it on its wheels, he should have said," and try to start it." It would have broken some of the tension of the crew😊
Next to the one he had Lizzy in that truck on the side of the hill.
Wearing of seatbelts when driving would already be a good start...
I love Matt's off road recovery and have so much respect for them, but this is the first time ever that I am disappointed that he not only put his life at risk, but also those around him. Please respect your life and be there for your grandchildren. Safety first.
He's going to be the Steve Irwin of off-road rescue if he keeps this up.
Someone has to do the job, I just hope they bring proper gear to jobs like these. Knowing how they build the rigs they use, I imagine this will be a learning opportunity for MORR.
I was free climbing a similar rock like this in 1992 when my luck ran out. I had to jump 12 ft down and tore my left foot off right above the high top boot (open compound fracture both bones, the side of my foot touched my shin). I managed to get help before I bleed out. That type of terrain is nothing to fool around with. I will never be able to climb again. I reluctantly leave part of this story here to emphasize the need for rock climbing safety training for the entire team.
FWIW, this channel has been fast and loose with safety for a long time. Sadly, it'll be what ends the channel when shoddy safety leads to a serious injury or death.
As a rock climber and factoring in safety, the risk factor was over the top of the scale. Too many unsafe issues could have resulted in a failure of the procedure being attempted. It should always be safety first, and not the priority to retrieve a piece of plastic and metal.
Matt's fun to watch but he has never had any concern for safety. This is the most dangerous thing he's done on the channel but it didn't surprise me for even an instant.
This was friggi' reckless af. They are so lucky nobody got hurt. Matt needs a certified safety guy on his crew.
One slip up in this situation by any one could have easily resulted in a injury, hospital trip, or death. Again, too many risk factors left to fate instead of better managing them with intelligence. Matt's wife I feel with confidence put the switch to him when she saw this video clip.
It's one thing for Matt to be cavalier about his own safety, but he needs to consider that lots of people watch these videos and some will try to copycat him.
It’s easy to be cavalier about safety, until one person gets hurt really bad. On an incident like this if someone fell, it would be really bad. Then it would really turn out to be a rescue. As a Paramedic, I can tell you trying to get someone that’s hurt badly but conscious out of a canyon like that without causing them great physical pain would be impossible, not to mention getting them back to somewhere an ambulance could access them. Obviously a helicopter would be optimal but first you have to get to an area that has cell service, then the helicopter has to be available and close enough do be effective. There are parts of Nevada where your 150 miles from Reno or Vegas, where the choppers are based but it’s still faster going by ambulance, than waiting for a chopper to lift off, fly to the scene, land, load and fly back to Reno. In trauma they always talk about the Golden hour, from injury to ER , in incidents like this it’s more like hours and all that time someone is in pain, really big pain and they can’t have pain killers if there is a head injury involved. Even if there is no head injury, morphine, which is the main pain reliever, is really not that effective when the body is flooded with adrenaline. I once gave 6 times the normal dose to a guy with a dislocated hip before it brought the pain down to a tolerable level. Get some equipment and take the time and do some high level rescue training. Just one time when things go wrong and you will regret it for the rest of your life!
Colin, 100% smart thinking, why aren’t you 4 feet farther up and be on flat ground. Common sense says don’t mess with it sitting on the edge of a cliff
“Gravity, It’s the Law” from a postcard I saw while attending College in 1993.
They drug it the entire way up on it's roof. Then decided a barrel roll dangling on the edge. Why not drag on roof 4 more feet??
@@brianb5086poor decision making.
Amazing! The absolute most technical job Matt has done, hair raising! Next time harnesses and safety ropes are in order!
That’s obvious. Loaded line has to remain free of contact with any immobile objects. Especially not be dragged against an edge of a stone. Those feet count.
This recovery is nuts. And the driver is extremely fortunate to be alive. Matt, I hope you are reading the comments regarding this rescue. I believe most of these folks suggesting ropes, harnesses and training have your best interest at heart. Risking your crew (your own kids) unnecessarily to save a pile of junk doesn't seem wise.
Can't believe the driver walked away from that tumble! 😲
A couple weeks of arm, leg, and body bruises?
I can't believe he's alive 😮...He's definitely got some awesome guardian Angie's watching over him...
You know the drill...video or it didn't happen.
This guy needs a dash cam or GoPro.
Super lucky
He was smart enough to fully strap in (I assume).
What do you think of buying some harnesses to starp your crew, That will give you the ability to winch yourself up and down safe in all situations. Might be a good addition to have. 👍
they shouldn't have even started this job without them. this is the stupidest thing i've seen on this channel
@@BikingWIthPanda Well if they had diesel engines everything would’ve been much smoother. Come on now buddy, get it in gear!
I agree. Diesel Dave and his crew do this stuff without any protection(harness, helmet, repelling equipment, etc. and it drives me crazy). Does the state mandate anything?
@@BikingWIthPanda you are spot on, harnesses and safety lines are the bare minimum
Completely agree. One wrong movement and he could have been dead. It's not like they didn't have a tie off point for them.
I was totally stressing for everyone, even the dogs, on this one. Jaymie and OSHA want a meeting with Matt pronto!
Might I suggest a really strong cargo net to let your cleanup team fill the net and then you can winch the full net up slopes?
Abrasion would destroy anything you use to try and drag up a mountain like that. Steel would last longer, but even then you're going to need to replace whatever you use frequently.
Some kind of crane setup would be ideal but also more weight.
Like an old climbing net from boot camp! Good idea!
@@AdventureAwaits1111 Kept in a big plastic dustbin so small bits can be winched up all together too.
Except for the weight, something like a fire proof tarp to contain small pieces & resist abrasion while being dragged up those rocks.
Had the same thought
Matt should have used a side winch connected to a harness for safety on this job. It looks exciting doing it free, but it would not be exciting to see one of the crew falling down that crack.
Seems to be the theme of the comment section. Matt is the King of winging it.
Not often they get these jobs, and they probably didn't expect how bad this truly was.
Yes, but I feared for the wrecker itself sliding over the edge. It did not seem to be tied down to anything.
@@richardhamilton4217the morvair was holding it. Thats plenty of weight for it to pull a side by side up.
@@x...CrankyOldMan...x that is bad. there's a little kid standing directly where that thing was going to roll if those ropes snapped rubbing against the cliff face. he can wing it all he wants, but hes endangering not just kids, but people who work for him and have to do what he says.
😂 Caitlin had the best line in the video, Matt says it wants to be upsidedown really bad, Caitlin says, typical side-by-side 😂😂😂
She nailed it. Want to see how machinery falls apart under normal use? ... Just get a side-by-side!
@@dogpatch75I know very well, I fix them for people.
I think we all need “ Jaime’s Reaction Video” 😂😂😂
Probably best she doesn’t know…
HE DID WHHAAATTTTTT!!!!!!
While I certainly appreciate the skill and intestinal fortitude displayed in this video, the lack of regard for safety is a little concerning. I realize that Matt has tons of experience and probably didn’t even feel uncomfortable, but that is one of the most common factors in workplace accidents.
Complacency is definitely the most common factor in workplace accidents. He said at the beginning of the video they didn’t need to rush and then the whole time it felt like they were rushing 🤷🏽♂️
😅
Believe me. They all had leg cramps that night. LOL. Ever try to pee with a full blown double leg cramp? Ya miss your target.
The fact that even his crew commented on how shady that was... Hope they had a good debrief after this.
If the dogs are fine the people will be fine, and the dogs were running up and down the gorge like it was their backyard. Your camera perception is very different than reality.
From the title, Several of Matt's team is lucky to have survived! Need more safety gear and training for this one. So glad everyone made it out safe. We love you guys,,, and gals!
Somebody on the team needs to get high angle rescue certified
100% of Matt's video titles are click bait. This is no different and really hardly even a blip of danger I mean redbull sends guys down those same cliffs at mach jesus on a mountain bike the commenter's are clearly lost in the clickbait sauce.
@@josephprentice8354 no this is insanely dangerous and he is making safety decisions for not only his employees but little kids who are just tagging along. people who do stunts make those decisions for themselves. if this were just a couple guys doing this for fun, it would be stupid. to do this as part of a business you run with employees and children present is negligent AND stupid.

As former UK Coastguard cliff rescue officer I second all those who say safety harness are a must for this sort of work.
I feel like you need some sort of harness for these sorts of jobs
Yup, harness and climbing helmet as a minimum.
That’s because they do, but clout chasing idiots never think that far ahead.

Love that rye sense of humor! This is your edited version?
One of your rescue videos just popped up on my RUclips, and after 30 seconds of taking a look, I enjoyed the whole thing. I'm now back two or three years working my way up to the present time. You could say I'm hooked. I enjoy seeing such a wonderful, close-knit family working together and enjoying what they do. With such crazy S going on in our Country these days, your videos relax me and bring me back to a good place in my younger years. I thank all of you for this little bit of peace each day.

All the sheer drops and cliffs and people and dogs walking along the edge. This episode is anxiety x 10 for me.

I still can't believe the customer survived the roll down that cliff, but it says something for the CanAm construction that the roll cage did its job and that's why he survived. Great technical recovery and the whole team did a great job. The switch over in the rigging while suspended on the cables was incredible, Matt. Hats off to all!
I didnt know modern ones had airbags but that's a great feature. Those probably were a big part of why he had no major injuries.
That customer looks rough and ready. 😅
He should get checked out for concussions/brain injuries. A lot of people walk away from accidents thinking they got super lucky only to realize later they got a concussion they didn't realize and it catches up to them in some scary ways.
Second that, had a neighbor/friend bump his head on a ladder. Thought it was nothing, butterfly taped a small cut. Three days later he was gone from a broken vessel in his brain.

And Kaulin repeatedly saying "oh my goodness" like he's an 80-year old woman is annoying...
And Katelynn is getting annoying too. She never says something once, but two or three times in a row... and usually after someone else just said it. Not to mention her silly gasps, oohs, aaahs, and whews... trying to be over dramatic... I think I'm done with this channel.... it used to be fun to watch.... now it is too much like a very poorly written, failing sitcom.
@@Seven77MRTdon’t let the door hit you on your way out
@@Seven77MRT shut the hell up
I agree with Kaulin’s professional opinion at the end to just drag it further up in the safety before working on next to the edge
"I don't know why we didn't go 4 more feet?" Yeah, or 40. I was unsure why to stop there still at the edge and try to right the SXS. It was dragging fine on its roof, probably better than on what was left of it's rolling stock. I about scratched my head bald on this recovery.
I like how everyone with little more experience than winching a truck out of a mud pit is telling Matt and his team how they should have done it, despite Matt's team's success on this job and the fact that this is what they do everyday. Great job, Matt and team!
Most of the trash gets left by the side by side people / good job on cleanup and rescue!
I see plenty of trash where people go on foot. Its an integrity problem
Stupid statement.
One of the most technical recoveries done by MORR. Dragging the vehicle reminded me of the episode 'I Can't Believe The Stole It and Stripped It For Parts in Arizona!'. But once you got to the sand it moved along quickly. Well done everyone. Glad the driver was relatively unharmed. One day perhaps there will be a "Top 10 technical/difficult recovery" episode. Thanks for sharing.
Out of all the recoveries I’ve watched on your channel, this is probably the scariest I’ve watched! But it’s worth it! And I’m you were able to get it out!
The ominous music when they started rolling out the winch cables was a nice touch. Really ramped up the terror for me.
I couldn't tell if that was prop noise from the drone or added in later. Either way it was scary!
@@KyleK-u6dprop noise echoing without background music and ambient noise turned down, it was a nice touch
Caulin my guy you gotta teach yourself to pull line out without wrapping it around your arm. It seems like a good idea when you are doing but if you slipped and it caught around your wrist it's possible you'd pop your hand right off. I talked to a deep sea fisherman who was pulling net with a crew and one guy who had been warned multiple times not to wrap it around his arm to pull up did it again and a seal was caught in the net and thrashed and the next thing he knew his arm ended at his wrist and his hand become property of Davy Jones locker. Just something to think about.
Colin. You are a voice of reason! Thank you! Matt, get away from that edge. Your dad is so skilled but I would really appreciate seeing a bit more caution. Awesome when you tie off to be able to get around a tree or this or that. Those experiences were nothing compared to what is happening now. PS I had my iPad resting on my legs in the recliner. I just put the recliner down and the iPad slipped down the cliff onto the floor!😅
I think it would be well worth the money to carry some climbing rope and harness in the recovery vehicles. You should of had a dedicated safety line while changing out the winch extensions.
I'm happy to see nobody got injured rescuing this totaled sxs, Matt put himself in a seriously dangerous position re-rigging that thing. A harness and winch hooked up to Matt would make me feel a whole lot better. I know you probably didn't anticipate the necessity of re-rigging on a cliff like that, but we don't need Matt hurting himself! Despite all that, amazing work and another fun video to watch!
That must have been the craziest recovery I've seen from you guys.
I can only imagine Jamie there watching you scaling down the cliff, Matt.
Awesome team work, you guys!
Holy crap, that was a loooooooooooong way down! Quite the testiment to the rollcage and harness of that RZR! 😲😲😲
That's a can am maverick not a Polaris rzr
gnarliest recovery ive seen yet
Rory and Heavy D have similar jobs like this.
Casey Ledell has one too.. where he backed the trailer off the edge of the cliff and used that as his crane.
OMG my palms are getting real sweaty at 21:40. Matt you must be completely nuts to do it like that!
Fair dinkum that would've been scary. That little cage held up so well it's a credit to whoever made it.
Wow, that is one impressive recovery. Matt scaling the cliff right by the Diamond Billed Rock Pecker holes is a new level of sketchy! The driver of the side by side is lucky to still be breathing and still have all his parts. Fantastic video work too. Stay safe crew.
In their case, it's "Stay lucky crew".
You're crazy.Not for a side by side.Only in emergency situations should a father of 4 be doing something like that. With that said that really amazing what you did.
Yes, that was stupid of him. One slip and he'd have been gone. Dumb.
watching and seeing how close you and your boys are is really helping me on the journey of losing my dad to dementia... thanks for making the best of every moment. i know i did
32:22, Matt, The last time that rig was upright, it rolled 100 feet down a ravine - I think it felt safer upside down!!!
This was an interesting recovery and the team handled it great, thanks for the video.
I woulda liked for you guys to have your own safety lines while working the top side.
One very lucky driver, plus a very top class recovery well done team
Man that was exciting! My heart was in my throat the whole time Matt was on that cliff. Good job guys.
1:05 - Aren't Lady & Peanut border collies? They are used to herd sheep, so it's not a surprise you can steer them from the rear 😅
They are collies. Amazingly smart dogs by nature.
So...how does Jaymie feel about Matt dangling off a cliff with no safety gear?
Yeah, that is a silly way to leave your family without their leader. That or cost the company a few million because a friend and coworker got hurt so bad they can't hardly move, or worse.
Just another day in Utah
lol ask her yourself
He's got a $2m policy. She doesn't mind
@@helloneighbor11 If the insurance company sees this video, Matt may find some serious exclusions imposed at renewal time!
The dogs really enjoyed the day. Good work.
I agree, safety first! No customer is worth risking your life! I applaud your skill and expertise.The greatest treasure in your life is your family. Hopefully Jamie gave you an earful once she saw the video
Nobody getting hurt or killed here was a piece of luck, not skill or expertise.
You triple-masked during COVID, didn’t you?
For a man that didn’t want like winches , you have become quite the expert, and mountain climber !!!
As always great video !!!
Bloody fool mountain climber. That could have gone very very wrong.
Mathew y'all got more guts than I'd ever would do. When y'all were on the cliff side I didn't breathe until you got back up! Outstanding recovery.
That throw ranking was funny
The dogs genuinely like their work! The dogs are in command, even though Matt believes he is!
The way they scamper on those cliffs make me think those dogs are part mountain goat.
Just remember that those are border collies, and they know that they are supervising the whole experience. Also that they must enjoy everything.
Also, having a rest in the shade is important.
Awesome job guys, that's one for the books! I love your plug for the new MORR Merica shirts, it was funny with Jake, Kaitlyn and Kaulin standing there as Matt lit the tires up on the race car, LOL! Thank you for sharing, love you guys! 💯💥💪🏼
This was insane!! I think you're all lucky to be alive.
Daymn and he's walking around just like that. Must be grateful for the roll cage and the harness.
Looks like one tough boy that one😅 Rough and ready🤭

Excellent example of team communication and working together. Kaitlin was perfect on the radio for brief, unambiguous, effective comms. Very well done!!!
This one was definitely questionable for a safe recovery
Yep they took a lot risk on this one. Luckily they survived. Hopefully OSHA doesn’t watch this. They might shut Matt’s off-road recovery down.
@@billbradley2480 As much as I love Matt channel, actually they should close it for his employees safety. I don't like to be overly anal when it comes to safety but this was ridiculous. And thinking he is so used/comfortable with this lack of safety that he even uploads it without second thoughts is concerning too.
@@broderbunto2305 he is far too comfortable with employees who are family members too. this is a crazy dangerous thing to do to people who you have so much power over.
Wife here👋🏼 NOT the one who got it stuck😂 he’s very lucky to be alive and I’m grateful I was able to keep myself and my daughter out when the fall occurred.
Good grief, don’t know all the circumstances behind this but who would risk their family members like this. 😡
You know it's serious when even Kaitlyn is impressed 3:49 (edit: Katelynn)
No kidding. You said exactly what I was thinking.
Katelynn is an impressive team member for sure!
What a great testament to the importance of using your safety harness - seat belts. As well as the strength of the Can Am cage. I can’t believe how few injuries he actually has. Well done on this recovery. The team worked well together and made it look routine.
You all think 2 1/2 hours is pretty good? That was amazing! Matt may think things aren't going smoothly but from our side it was butter!
Love from Germania
Your dogs have realy good doglife.
23:34 Katlyn with the "typical side by side" 😂😂
That looks like the stuff nightmares are made of! Absolutely amazing no one got "unalived"!! Great recovery!!
BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY, MATT YOU ARE THE MAN, THE CREW IS TOP NOTCH
Matt, get some professional rope access kit. As some of these recoveries get crazier and crazier, at some point just holding on to a winch cable is not gonna cut it, or worse you'd think it would work and something goes wrong. It's an investment for sure so maybe you could partner up with someone else instead (they also have great knowledge) but I think I speak for us all when I say we would hate to see something go wrong. so at 20:20 instead of sitting on the wreck that we don't know how well it will hold up, you should have a simple harness and a personal static rope you're hanging off of. also no problems with a partner not giving out cable in an unexpected way, and if the wreck ever were to drop you're safely hanging above it. Just some food for thought❤
Love the video! Thanks!
Those dogs are living the good life.. From roaming the desert with Matt to all the treats they get from Ed back at the shop..
Keep up with the good work matt an team love watching your videos on RUclips god bless you all
Great recovery and video everyone thanks for sharing glad everyone is okay and going home safe 40:28 @Matt's Off Road Recovery
This is the best razor recover ever on this channel. you guys got some amazing shots.
Matt by far the most dangerous recovery we've ever seen you do. You had my wife cringing with you going down the edge of the cliff with no safety harnesses. I pray in the future you will always wear a safety harness and be tethered. Because of this video my wife says she is out in riding in one of these.
Your wife is why we can't mine for our minerals in America. The country's gone soft tell your wife to go watch the view and leave the offroad for the guys wanting risk.
More training and more equipment yes.
Reduced risk, maybe.
Zero risk? That's why we can't have nice things because people are scared of their dmn shadow.
My wife has nothing to do with mining jackass. SHE just doesn't want to ride in one of these. That's her choice. SHE also doesn't ride on my motorcycle and I respect her decision. @@josephprentice8354
Nice recovery Everyone 31:04 @Matt's Off Road Recovery
Matt, the Stockton Rush of offroad recovery. Well, maybe not THAT bad. But safety isn’t optional-it’s as mandatory as it is to act responsible.
Damn good roll cage.
Matt, you don't disappoint. I can just hear the screams of the wife when she sees her husband roll down the cliff. Thank God that no one was hurt in the crash or the recovery.
Criticism, hopefully constructive: Nobody should ever have been at a spot lower than the razor while it was hanging. Should have had at least 3 winch lines on it all the time. Walking on the side of that cliff with cowboy boots and no safety line and harness... Freaking seriously? I'm sorry but this one makes me angry, you are so lucky nobody got hurt, or worse. This was wrong on so many levels.
Yeah the customer and his kid looked like they were ready to catch it if it fell back down the cliff....
Go away karen
You are 100% on point. There’s risky and then there is this, utterly irresponsible!
I'm with you. I got seriously pissed off watching this one. My experience is in Wilderness and Mountain Rescue. The lack of harnesses, belay lines, helmets and planning to not get hurt or killed is way out of bounds.
@@SKITEMAN rope access is one of the times you better listen to the "karens"
Can't believe they doing this without an harness on.
Sooo lemme ask what is your history of either wearing a harness or rappelling??? Bc i can FROM EXPERIENCE tell you sure they stop you bf the bottom....but you dont end up OK if you have tonuse them also if you'd ever had used one you'd know the dahm things limit movement like a S.O.B and are more dangerous wearing them than not! Also might I add Matt spent over a decade on ROOF's just as steep and also just as high. So ILL ASK AGAIN WHATS YOUR HISTORY OF HARNESS WEARING AND STEEP HIGH WORK? ILL BE WAITING FOR THE REPLY.
@@rytime700so I did work in solar for a few years, and yeah, they should be wearing harnesses. A little restricted movement or a fall where you’re in harness lock is way better then a fall off a cliff to your death, in front of your own children.
I don’t know why you got so angry
@@rytime700 I worked for years as a technician in power plants and had regularly go on top of smoke stacks up to 900 feet high and you? I have lots of experience even working in a harness AND in full hazmat gear in a nuclear power plant. Matt is fine, he is an company owner OSHA doesn't apply to him but it applies to his employees. Lack of fall protection is UTAHs #1 OSAH violation by the way
To be honest Matt even you & the rest of the team did a good job
you were stupid not to have any type of restrains for being that close
to the edge of that cliff.
@@rytime700 Lay off the crack kid ( 30 years of climbing and rope access work before you ask).
Unbelievable recovery Matt!
Im so glad this guy was unscathed, but I can’t believe he had no insurance..ouch!
Fantastic work TEAM MORR!! Uh, I mean “Not Bad!” 09:44 😂 Ya’ll managed that recovery so good! Thanks for taking us along for the ride!
This was epic. the communication on this job was thrilling to watch. Bravo everyone 😁
Amazing recovery!
Definitely should bring some mesh bags for parts recovery
Can-Am needs to use this in their sales brochure. Good Job as always guy's. I usually learn from y'all but here in Florida I won't need these skills.
I just saw a video stating that Florida is the flattest state in the country 🤣
@@jacobcornelius9273yep, saw that too...😅
Show Can am the video. They will buy it back for safety video.
*guys
Why did you throw in a random apostrophe?
"Our vehicles are so top heavy, even a simple turn around can flip them". 😅
This was the most insane recovery that I have seen. Love how Lady and Peanut keep running around supervising the recovery.
This recovery was really beyond the limit of on the job experience. In reality, the recovery of the vehicle should have been secondary to personnel safety. I would hate to have Matt’s channel end due to a fatality. This recovery should have started with a site survey, safety plan for fall protection, engineering calcs estimating winch line loads, load path planning, " single point of failure” elimination, etc.
That is soooooo scary 😳
My 20-20 hindsight tells me the dude should have called Matt before trying to move it.
Love your show brother but what happened to safety first!? I'm glad no one got hurt.
There is a saying "What could happen will happen " its just a matter of time. Keep up the good work and be safe out there! 🙏
that razor was A MONSTER, cant believe you winches it right out. Matt, your supporting cast is so awesome, Jake rules, your boys rule, kaitlyn rules!
Don’t you mean Maverick?
