If anyone was to ask any CHP officer who is the best tow and recovery company out there, they would say hands down, it is Pepe’s. Any other company would have just dragged that rig up the hill and tore it all to pieces. You did it with that trailer all in tact. You actually saved that company money because that trailer is still usable. Great job again guys. Josh, supervising was amazing.
I must say that your leadership, communicative skills are w/ out a shadow of doubt 1st class. Your parents should be very proud of the level of respect each and every employee showed towards each other. The fact of so much weight floating in the air and level of calm talk between all employees is admirable. Like I said before your parents should be exceptionally proud of what a gentleman they raised.
That's why you're the "best" at what you do!!! With every job you continue to hone your skills and you pass your knowledge on to all who come to work with you...the sign of a true master of your trade. Good for you!!!
@@PepesTowingServicethat's the key to success, never stop learning. I'm a retired truck driver after 43 years, and I never stopped learning after all those years driving.
@@larryreinke6136I agree. I’m CONSTANTLY learning new rigging techniques, trial and error and buying tools like my load cells to really understand the forces I deal with on a daily basis
Coming from a retired crane operator and heavy recovery specialists, this has got to be one of the best recovery operations I have seen on RUclips.. very professional and well done.. great job with teaching the new guys what needed to be done and keeping everyone working as a team.. again, well done!
I’ve never seen a roadside recovery this well choreographed! Power, beauty and synchronized pulling all under control down to coordination with highway patrol and a fire dept. unit was totally impressive down to the final cleaning and tidying. Safety of everyone while keeping traffic flowing was a very refined touch as well. I’m retired at 75 years old but watching this was well worth the time!
For me the most impressive thing about your recoveries is how well you guys work together. You make it look easy coordinating several pieces of heavy equipment, but it’s not.
I am in total amazement with every recovery of rolled over rigs such as this. It is poetry in motion!!! To the man behind the camera, not only are you an excellent educator, encourager and operator, you are a pleasure to listen to!!! Great work. Peace!!
EPIC recovery and you did an AWESOME job with the video!!!! Man, at about 15:38 when Big Flipper slid over I about jumped out of my chair!!!! That was INSANE!!! Big Flipper was pulling hard enough to move it's well planted 73,000 lb self!! CRAZY!! Using different cameras and the drone made for some really cool footage showing pretty much every step. And, you did all of that without damaging the guardrail!! Seriously, VERY well done you Alex and Ricardo!!
Remember I went over my rigging formula and how with the incline and terrain and tractor damage the trucks “feel” more force , I calculated about 1.75x. So flipper had the front of the trailer PLUS the rear tractor. The load cell line when already coming up was over 20k. Flipper EASILY saw 3x that when it first went in to break traction. Nothing to scare haha it sure looks crazy but once you break tension you’re in like Flint
You’re bloody amazing, an artist and most importantly, you’re an incredible supervisor… the guys are lucky to have you as their lead, you’re a natural at leadership!
@@PepesTowingService All those compliments take a lot of jobs done well... and we all know that a thousand "Atta Boys" will be wiped out by one "Oh @#$%!!" After 50 years carrying a CDL and covering way too many miles, it's really nice to sit back in a comfortable office chair and watch a pro doing the job like his dad taught him to. I'd have to say, "It's been an evening well spent!!" 👍
All I can say is your dad has got to be so proud of you… The way you handle these jobs it’s clear that the training that he provided you over the years was well received and understood. It’s always nice when a father says his son, following in his footsteps, so well… Keep it up!👍😁
JOB WELL DONE...VERY CALM ,IT KEEPS THE REST OF THE GUYS IN GOOD SPIRITS EVENTHOUGH IT IS A HEAVY AND HARD JOB YOU KEPT YOUR COOL...VERY GOOD...GOD BE WITH YOU ALWAYS BECAUSE IT SEEMS TO ME LIKE IT'S 👍 A HARD AND KIND OF DANGEROUS JOD...GOD BLESS YOU!!!❤❤☆
Some of the best content on YT. Love the longer format & the drone footage with the dramatic music. And Josh always asks how the driver is... Absolutely Greatness, Josh !! VIP!!
Seriously impressive recovery work; you guys certainly earned your money this time! Ricardo and his truck played a vital role here, I couldn't see how it was going to work out... but it did.
Ricardo and Alex was good. Josh is a good instructor. Congratulations Ricardo, you are now “Big Tow guy”. It was beautiful Josh. God bless. I am watching from Belgium 🇧🇪
A very professional and technical rescue. I can't believe the trailer looks ready to reuse?! Lots of expensive equipment and the talent to use it to it's best advantage. Bravo!!!
Viewing from Ireland, If that happened in Ireland the motorway/highway would be closed and fire service would remain on scene until its cleared , I'm also amazed at the traffic driving as normal speed on both sides , in Ireland if theres any type of incident then all traffic almost stops to have a look , known as Rubbernecks . I cant get over the size of the wrecker trucks , absolutely huge , we have nothing that big . Brilliant vids and great teamwork .
Ireland probably doesn't have many roads big enough to handle large trucks because the roads were there for many centuries. I am surprised that Germany doesn't have rotators. Fire departments have cranes that go to wrecks.
@@tiredoldmechanic1791 we in europe does not have these because of weight regulations, this truck itself weighs more than the legal weight of an eu 8 axle truck, so it would not be able to tow anything without a over weight permit, therefore it is more resonable to use a crane in these cases
Some might find Josh’s play by play annoying, but he is so knowledgeable about his job, I love him telling us all what he is thinking. Pepe’s is hands down the best recovery company I have ever seen. Just amazing skills.
You and your team are the God's of big rig recovery. You made a statement when that truck was hanging up in the air just a couple feet away from you and you said "that's beautiful guys " I understand your language I mean I don't do what you do but I do operate a 12 ton 62 ft. Mobile crane and when I have something hanging x many ft in the air some time you have to just look up. And admire what's infront of you and you just can't explain the feeling you get when it all works out the way it supposed to.good job brother my hats off to you and your team.
I still remember when I was helping out guiding traffic when this wreck happened, and I've been waiting for the video, and the first time seeing you guys in my hometown.
I watch all of your videos and try to assess the way that I would attempt the recovery and I am usually pretty close to how you do it most of the time but this one I looked at it and thought I have no idea how to do this without destroying everything and would need multiple lane closures. I just witness a group of extremely professional rotator operators do an awesome recovery. Every video I watch I learn from your team. Great job and what I find most impressive is the communication and teamwork. Two thumbs up.
The video shows what a professional job you all do for the motoring public and for the flow of commerce thru this country. Josh your the ultimate pro in the towning field. also the music was bomb! Thank you, Sir!
I have a lot of respect for you and all your fellow co-workers. Awesome company, enjoy following you guys on RUclips. I’m a retired tractor trailer driver of 42 years.
There are a lot of good tow companies out there and Pepe’s rates right at the top. When I dispatched for a tow company several years ago we had CHP, NHP and Nye County Sheriff’s and they all worked with our drivers as much as they could. Great job as always Josh
This was absolutely amazing! So calmly and well-coordinatedly done! You put 150% effort into everything you do and are always willing to go the extra mile to make sure the job is done right!
When you said that this ain't no weak trailer man I'm going to tell you right now that's what I was thinking. Whoever inspected that trailer and built that trailer deserves an A+. What's crazy is about that trailer it's almost like it's reusable. I don't think anybody in the world would ever be able to think that if something went on its side like that that it would be able to be used again. Somebody would really have to inspect that trailer now if that was even possible.
I had little to no hope for that trailer when I first saw it, but you guys pulled it off with perfection! I love how you “over rigged” expecting the worst out of that trailer! You guys are top notch pros out there! That is why I love watching your videos!
Wow! Absolutely awesome work! Stress levels at max, but Josh uses his wealth of experience to see the job through to a successful conclusion (as always!) 👍🤩. And huge congrats to Alex and Ricardo too of course! The best team in the business! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
At first I thought this was going to be a boring recovery. I have to say I’m very impressed with how professional all three tow drivers worked together. It was like a very coordinated dance and to drop it down in the space they had to work with was amazing. Hats off to Pepe’s crew and thank you for showing us how a professional team works together. Looking forward to watching more recovery of vehicles that have unfortunately crashed out. Cheers mate.
Incredible job, and liked how even when offered the other lane at the start he thought of the other road users and said they were OK to prevent further tail backs and disruption. Done a bit of off road recovery and that was pure precision, good to watch. The old road that they crossed looked interesting, there before the freeway and with a history and stories to tell.
A _very_ impressive recovery, guys! Definitely more technical than the cement truck down the embankment and into the house, especially when you throw in the leaking diesel and smoking battery cables. Josh, you really managed the whole situation well, even with many CHP, LA Fire, and Cal Trans personnel on scene and watching your every move. Really well done!
Can’t believe that trailer survived that great recovery and to think we used to recover stuff like that with trucks with 750 Holmes wreckers much respect 4 u guys 👍👍👍👍👍
Josh Alex and Ricardo awesome job, you guys work so well together! Your company spends the money on first class trucks and equipment! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
I own a towing company here in Maryland with 5 heavy duty rotator trucks 3 flatbeds and 2 1 ton tow trucks and i tell you what that's the best pick and roll recovery I've seen in a long time guys👍🏿👍🏿
You rock man thank you. Everyone loves compliments but to get praise from people with similar equipment in my industry is just another level of ego boost.
A master-class in precision recovery from one of the most challenging situations; watched it all rapt. The fire risk was very real, glad the Fire Dept was on the case.
Thank you for recording these amazing videos. I am amazed on how efficient you are and the level of respect that you have for your coworkers and vice versa. I sure hope you don’t have any haters out there and if you do trust me, they’re only jealous and most likely live a miserable life. I am a huge supporter of LEO and especially the CHP. The level of respect that they have for you shows exactly what a class act you are. The same goes for you those guys would pick up a broom and help sweep for you and that right there shows the level of respect you both have for each other. Makes you wonder what those freedom amendment auditors real motivation is for when they disrespect LEO. I don’t know if you ever come down to South Orange County but hopefully one day I’ll see ya out there on the road.
I have PLENTY of haters which is hilarious because I’m such a nice guy and always willing to help. We do work for so many other tow companies and just in general if people reach out with questions I like to help. But thanks for the compliments and hope you’re subscribed!
Very interesting the rigging aspect of this and the amount of thinking and knowledge that goes behind it, very similar to what we do with difficult/tricky trees with our rigging climbing and our cranes.
I was about going nuts when you were instructing new guy near beginning and he was doing the opposite of what you were telling him. But you didn’t get angry, stayed calm, and even praised him later. THAT is a good boss. Motivating, not humiliating.
Amazing team effort perfectly done with everyone performing as directed. I'm impressed!!! You earned your SALT today!!! Tnanks for your service. Well Done, again.
What a amazing recovery, the dmall amount of room you used to flip the truck and trailer is unbelievable. Do vlose to your rotators and you didn't seem concerned about that at all! So impressive,you guys rock!
Another Great video Josh. You have the best crews in the business! Got the trailer up the hill in one piece and rolled it in the air and set it down! Those were some great camera angles and shots. the drone gives you an idea as to what is going on! I love this kind of videos.
You guys did an awesome job. I noticed at around 15:39, Big Flipper appeared to slide over. I was wondering if this is just a camera issue or if it actually slid over? Keep up the great work and stay safe.
Very impressive! I like your ability to adapt and make any necessary changes on the fly. I have been watching this site for a long time and you never fail to do a top notch job.👍
Good morning from South Africa. You guys are fantastic. I think you guys must set-up an operation in our country. You guys make everything look so easy. GREAT JOB GUYS!!!
Jeffrey wants a first-class seat in the main rig from now on! And is looking for a nice raise. I will have to say that was a phenomenal job. Well done as usual.
Bet this one had to be a real change compared to all of the inter-city work you all do. It's so cool to see a family run business being so successful. Back here in Ohio we see some nasty wrecks & as you mention - it's always a hurry up situation. Great content & it's appreciated by us gear heads! Awesome fleet!
I definitely enjoy the longer-form videos that show the thought process and rigging challenges that go into the job. This was quite a piece of work and you guys did an amazing job of it. I'm sure you're really happy when Caltrans is there to clean up the mess and you don't have to do it.
You guys did a Fabulous job getting the crash over the guard rail. And sitting it down were you did. This job is a example of how to use your rigs and lifting and rigging.
Wow! This job was intense. You guys did great! Can't believe the driver only had minor injuries.I just started watching this channel and I find it very interesting never knew how hard this job can be.
Absolutely phenomenal job guys! You really are at the top of your game... to say you only closed one lane! Here in the UK the Highways Agency would have closed the entire freeway 😅 Incredible footage and edit Josh! Keep up the great work Alex & Ricardo and the wider Pepe's Team 🔥
you all did an amazing job. Truly respectful of equipment, keeping everything together. I am a driver and I have not seen a recovery work this well. Awesome job to all. Your great. I appreciate what you do. People have to understand traffic back ups and the like. It amazes me when I come up on an accident and see people trying to weave in and out. They need to not do this as they could hit someone as they are trying to speed by. People seem to be in a hurry more and more. They only understand when it hits their loved ones. It's a shame. You guys did a great job. ❤❤
What a job there! you can never plan enough for something like this-'cuz eveything can/will go wrong. Great execution--and having the right equipment makes all the difference in the world. When you have that whole rig suspended in air--that is NOT the time to worry about-did I buy the best chains or slings? Nope--you need total confidence.
Yup 💯 accurate. That’s why I say you always over rig and you NEED to see the end at the very beginning. We knew we had the iron and rigging for it and once we knew what our plan was it was a matter of executing it
Just asking. Were you not able to upright the truck on that lower access ramp road? Would it have been more difficult? Just trying to understand your logic. I’m not a tow operator.
It cracks me up how the guy talks. He breathes heavy and grunt while he talks like he's picking it up by hand. When all he's doing is filming. That's getting into your job. I love it. I'm NOT knocking the guy, I'm sure he put his time in or he wouldn't be filming it. I love how he's soooo into it he breathes hard and grunts while he's narrating. I think its AWESOME !!!!!!!!! Not to mention he has some badass bad boy rigs.
If anyone was to ask any CHP officer who is the best tow and recovery company out there, they would say hands down, it is Pepe’s. Any other company would have just dragged that rig up the hill and tore it all to pieces. You did it with that trailer all in tact. You actually saved that company money because that trailer is still usable. Great job again guys. Josh, supervising was amazing.
Thank you! That was 💯 the goal. The trailer is perfectly fine believe it or not and could easily still be used after some quick maintenance.
This why I like his videos takes time to explain everything he is doing and how he going to position his equipment and crew
Great content!!! Hello from Greece 🇬🇷 👍
Get people that are trained learn how too
He treats every recovery like it was his equipment he was recovering.
I must say that your leadership, communicative skills are w/ out a shadow of doubt 1st class. Your parents should be very proud of the level of respect each and every employee showed towards each other. The fact of so much weight floating in the air and level of calm talk between all employees is admirable. Like I said before your parents should be exceptionally proud of what a gentleman they raised.
There are so many tow companies out there that need to watch y’all’s videos for proper recovery methods…. Yet another great job Josh and Crew
Really love the compliment! I consider myself “good” but by no means the best. But I never stop learning and am eager to tackle any job
That's why you're the "best" at what you do!!! With every job you continue to hone your skills and you pass your knowledge on to all who come to work with you...the sign of a true master of your trade. Good for you!!!

To flip a whole loaded tractor trailer in mid air is nothing but amazing. True skilled professionals. Great job.

Safety of everyone while keeping traffic flowing was a very refined touch as well. I’m retired at 75 years old but watching this was well worth the time!
FYI…the people, and think I do speak for most, appreciate you guys hard work and dedication. Thank you!!!🙏🏾
For me the most impressive thing about your recoveries is how well you guys work together. You make it look easy coordinating several pieces of heavy equipment, but it’s not.

That would be myself (Josh). Rotator operator and content creator all in one 😂 and video editor haha thank you!
I hope the driver of this rig was fine.
With big enough equipment and no interruptions you can do anything .. hell they put a rocket on the moon .. just takes lots of money not brains
@jamesgibson5876 your jealous is oozing thru the screen
@@laheart1957 so you did not watch the video? Coz police officer said in the video what happend to the driver.
EPIC recovery and you did an AWESOME job with the video!!!! Man, at about 15:38 when Big Flipper slid over I about jumped out of my chair!!!! That was INSANE!!! Big Flipper was pulling hard enough to move it's well planted 73,000 lb self!! CRAZY!! Using different cameras and the drone made for some really cool footage showing pretty much every step. And, you did all of that without damaging the guardrail!! Seriously, VERY well done you Alex and Ricardo!!
Remember I went over my rigging formula and how with the incline and terrain and tractor damage the trucks “feel” more force , I calculated about 1.75x. So flipper had the front of the trailer PLUS the rear tractor. The load cell line when already coming up was over 20k. Flipper EASILY saw 3x that when it first went in to break traction. Nothing to scare haha it sure looks crazy but once you break tension you’re in like Flint
You’re bloody amazing, an artist and most importantly, you’re an incredible supervisor… the guys are lucky to have you as their lead, you’re a natural at leadership!

Thank you!
Who do you think is better?
Who else saw the front rig move a little bit at 15:37?! Either way, great work Josh and team!
Big Flipper decided to take a little walk. I about crapped my pants.
-It looked like it moved in very slowly for about one foot. Lots of weight there.
I watched that part about 5 times to make sure that's what I saw
Yeah, I saw it. The middle wrecker slid over a good foot or so! That’ll leave some skid marks in your shorts! 😳
Came to the comments for this comment
Ricardo and Alex was good. Josh is a good instructor. Congratulations Ricardo, you are now “Big Tow guy”. It was beautiful Josh. God bless. I am watching from Belgium 🇧🇪

I don’t know if you ever come down to South Orange County but hopefully one day I’ll see ya out there on the road.
I have PLENTY of haters which is hilarious because I’m such a nice guy and always willing to help. We do work for so many other tow companies and just in general if people reach out with questions I like to help. But thanks for the compliments and hope you’re subscribed!
He did a video of a wreck along I-5 thru Camp Pendleton, about 5 miles from Oceanside.
This is one of the most incredible videos I've seen on RUclips. These guys are experts in the highest sense of the word.
Very interesting the rigging aspect of this and the amount of thinking and knowledge that goes behind it, very similar to what we do with difficult/tricky trees with our rigging climbing and our cranes.
I was about going nuts when you were instructing new guy near beginning and he was doing the opposite of what you were telling him. But you didn’t get angry, stayed calm, and even praised him later. THAT is a good boss. Motivating, not humiliating.
Very impressive, you guys are really good at what you do. Kudos to a job well done.
Amazing team effort perfectly done with everyone performing as directed. I'm impressed!!! You earned your SALT today!!! Tnanks for your service. Well Done, again.
What a amazing recovery, the dmall amount of room you used to flip the truck and trailer is unbelievable. Do vlose to your rotators and you didn't seem concerned about that at all! So impressive,you guys rock!
Another great job. Most professional tow service I have seen!
Another Great video Josh. You have the best crews in the business! Got the trailer up the hill in one piece and rolled it in the air and set it down! Those were some great camera angles and shots. the drone gives you an idea as to what is going on! I love this kind of videos.
That was crazy cool to watch. These guys are some serious professional tow truck drivers.
You guys did an awesome job. I noticed at around 15:39, Big Flipper appeared to slide over. I was wondering if this is just a camera issue or if it actually slid over? Keep up the great work and stay safe.
Actually slid
WOW., you guys are real professionals and calm as can be, you guys make it look too easy,,, great job fellas
Very impressive! I like your ability to adapt and make any necessary changes on the fly. I have been watching this site for a long time and you never fail to do a top notch job.👍
These videos are absolutely amazing. What a professional team!
Amazing work Josh, Alex and Ricardo. I know it’s a huge effort, you make it look so smooth and easy. Keep up the great work.
Good morning from South Africa. You guys are fantastic. I think you guys must set-up an operation in our country. You guys make everything look so easy.
GREAT JOB GUYS!!!
Great recovery, and well covered with all the camera and drone angles!
Jeffrey wants a first-class seat in the main rig from now on! And is looking for a nice raise. I will have to say that was a phenomenal job. Well done as usual.
Bet this one had to be a real change compared to all of the inter-city work you all do. It's so cool to see a family run business being so successful. Back here in Ohio we see some nasty wrecks & as you mention - it's always a hurry up situation. Great content & it's appreciated by us gear heads! Awesome fleet!
Alex and Ricardo great job and Josh you never seize to amaze me. AWESOME job guys. Take care out there.🤔😯👏👏
I definitely enjoy the longer-form videos that show the thought process and rigging challenges that go into the job. This was quite a piece of work and you guys did an amazing job of it. I'm sure you're really happy when Caltrans is there to clean up the mess and you don't have to do it.
You guys did a Fabulous job getting the crash over the guard rail. And sitting it down were you did. This job is a example of how to use your rigs and lifting and rigging.
Scary wreck! What a hellacious ride! Great job guys! ❤
Josh for the WIN🏆 Currently watching on the big screen TV and reading the comments 😅 on my phone. Intertainment at its finest.
Nice! Hope you’re watching in 4k!
Wow! This job was intense. You guys did great! Can't believe the driver only had minor injuries.I just started watching this channel and I find it very interesting never knew how hard this job can be.
Man, inch perfect recovery. Watching that rotation was amazing. Well done!
Absolutely phenomenal job guys! You really are at the top of your game... to say you only closed one lane! Here in the UK the Highways Agency would have closed the entire freeway 😅 Incredible footage and edit Josh! Keep up the great work Alex & Ricardo and the wider Pepe's Team 🔥
Agreed. Here in the U.K. the entire road would be closed for hours with many miles of traffic tailbacks
you all did an amazing job. Truly respectful of equipment, keeping everything together. I am a driver and I have not seen a recovery work this well. Awesome job to all. Your great. I appreciate what you do. People have to understand traffic back ups and the like. It amazes me when I come up on an accident and see people trying to weave in and out. They need to not do this as they could hit someone as they are trying to speed by. People seem to be in a hurry more and more. They only understand when it hits their loved ones. It's a shame. You guys did a great job. ❤❤
You guys do some unbelievable recovery 👏 🎉
+DW PIXEL 😎😎😎
OMG, you guys are the true grandmasters of recoveries!
What a job there! you can never plan enough for something like this-'cuz eveything can/will go wrong. Great execution--and having the right equipment makes all the difference in the world. When you have that whole rig suspended in air--that is NOT the time to worry about-did I buy the best chains or slings?
Nope--you need total confidence.
Yup 💯 accurate. That’s why I say you always over rig and you NEED to see the end at the very beginning. We knew we had the iron and rigging for it and once we knew what our plan was it was a matter of executing it
Good afternoon from Southeast South Dakota
+Slim WantedMan hope you enjoy this one !
@@PepesTowingService deep sea fishing here. Love it.
watching from the u k,awesome recovery,1st time ive ever watched one of these,really well executed teamwork,good job
I saw “Big Flipper” slide a few times but “Hulk” stood his ground!!!
Yes, big flipper is pulling the heaviest portion of the semi truck.
Josh ... you & your crew are doing a AWESOME job, on this totalled out tractor, and damaged trailer ... OMG ... that can is certainly a total loss!!
Just asking. Were you not able to upright the truck on that lower access ramp road? Would it have been more difficult? Just trying to understand your logic. I’m not a tow operator.
It cracks me up how the guy talks. He breathes heavy and grunt while he talks like he's picking it up by hand. When all he's doing is filming. That's getting into your job. I love it. I'm NOT knocking the guy, I'm sure he put his time in or he wouldn't be filming it. I love how he's soooo into it he breathes hard and grunts while he's narrating. I think its AWESOME !!!!!!!!! Not to mention he has some badass bad boy rigs.
Wow! Incredible work gentlemen! That was a masterclass in recovery! Love the videos! #pepesrocks #masterclassrecovery
Amazing job guys! Leadership, coordination, and teamwork at its best!
love your vids
Thanks!
I forgot to add and praise you on GREAT LEADERSHIP control and use of knowledge and experience well done Josh 👏👏👏👏👏👏
big flipper move at 15:40 in the video
That was an awesome job. I love your positivity towards your workmates and making a job goes smooth. Great job.
I'm very amazed at what I've witnessed. Job well done, Pepe. You guys are real pros. You now have a fan from Jamaica.
that was outstanding work Josh, Alex and Ricardo!!!
I saw Alex's truck slide a little bit on the initial pull. Almost slid into the first truck. WOW!!!
