- Had to go ice fishing for a cummins mega cab dodge, I stated miles out wrong it was roughly 4.6 miles from the boat launch in 24 feet of water but luckly 1200 feet from a shore line.

Hey Fred, it's a nice warm day, there is about 4 inches of water on top of the ice and it's been 55 degrees the past 4 days, let's take the truck out on the ice.
😂😂🤣🤣
Hahaha
Only some kind of moron would drive on frozen ice, as if it wouldn't start to crack. That Truck alone is close to 6000lbs. My 2016 Scion TC is 3,124lbs it's a 2 door car that weighs over 3,000lbs. That's a heavy boat with a V8 that weighs a ton, what did he think was going to happen on the ice.
Pretty much.
I could never understand why anyone would take an expensive truck onto the ice.
It's a way of the north IF there is lots of ice!! But then you get stupid people that think any ice is good ice to hold a truck, and then everyone see's these kind of videos and thinks that all trucks fall through the ice. Meanwhile thousands of trucks drive on the lakes each winter and 99% of them drive out and drive back off with no problems. In the early 1900's they use to drive teams of horses pulling logs across frozen lakes.
You guys did a great job, how ever you work way to hard, I worked a good number of these situations with a company that uses a lifting unit on two large platoons center over the vehicle drop four cable hook one to each wheel lift high enough to clear the ice and skid the complete system off the ice, in open water the rig can actually float every thing all accomplished with 3 people.
Randy wallander we use a barge and crane or air bags and tow it in with open water. This case the ice was garbage.. there was no way of putting a mega cab diesel plus rigging on it. I was thinking a Sikorsky CH-53E to sling it out...
Props to that dodge owner for not having his mirrors flipped out for the ghost trailer lol
LOL I have mine out all the time! But it's because of the shape of the "spotter" mirrors. Helps me keep the blind spots down.
Its doesn't keep your blind spot down 🤣🤣 all it does it move the blind spot.. funny how only dodge owners seem to have there little dick issues... I don't need big mirrors to drive safely because I own a Silverado👌👌
Big Jeep hahahaha
He prob did, the ice prob closed them as it went through😂
Gotta be abitch in a drive through....
If this were a Toyota.....the title would be “Return of the Frozen Tundra”. Nice video and Thanks for sharing...
Gigm84 😂
Thanks for videotaping this. Great to see how you do this.
And thank you. It’s really not the best way for the truck but sadly it was are only way at the time.
Incredible video! Great job guys! 👍
Great video those were some slabs of a bluegill! Those were some nice ones!
I know! The GoPros don't last any time at all. I get maybe 40 minutes out of mine.
I never been ice fishing. I haven't had the chance to but I can't deal with the cold. 😂 I'm used to Alabama weather
One of the best examples of natural selection I've seen for a while I think :-)
Guess he doesn’t have to worry about getting the rusty rear fenders fixed. That’s a common issue.
😁
Wow Eddie that was great what a chance you an others take great job to all .
Great video!
Lynn Tremblay thanks Lynn
So what's the daily bag limit on trucks these days?
bout 4
mega cabs 2, Chevys 6, old ferds 1
No limit on 6.0 power strokes. They're an invasive species.😂
@@lowellmiller6663 all fords are invasive 😂😂
Also what’s the fishing license and other fees cost
While the dive team was down there they should have swam over and set some tip ups off at them Fishermen behind them lol
😂
Subbed I love stuff like this. The jobs no one thinks of
Thank you
How fast we're they going in the truck when it went down?
Truck for sale in mint conditions just had interior washed...
How much ice was there when the truck went in? Looks like barely enough for an atv to me, 6-8”?
God bless you for your hard work
Minnesota Car Enthusiast thank you 🙏
Those dings can be buffed out. No big deal.
I want to see your buffing machine
When I was a teenager in the late 50's, my brother and I got caught on an ice flow in Lake Erie. While we were able to swim back to the shore, many ice shanty's, vehicles and gear were lost on the ice as the large ice ob probably ten miles square, broke up. Many folks were rescued off the ice with helicopters and boats.
sounds crazy... My uncle had a ATV do thru in Erie a few miles out... that made the news with helos.
@@edduda3 Yes very exciting! WE were maybe a mile off the shore iceskating and open ice hockey passing. Only when we heard a loud speaker from the shore did we know anything was up. Most of the ice fishing activity was a couple miles away. We were interviewed by the Bowls Harbor newspaper. A hot bath was the good ending...
This is so cool. I saw the same thing on a Mike Rowe Dirty Jobs episode years ago. I love ice fishing but it's just crazy to drive a vehicle out there I live in Michigan so it's not in the normal thing of that people do to drive out on the ice.
Janathan Boerema thank you, it can be done but you need to know the area well. Personally I never would. I just use sleds or a wheeler. They are way easier to retrieve btw..
Awesome video. I also live in Michigan and I would disagree with you about not being a normal thing around here. I’m guessing your from southern Michigan. There are nothing but vehicles on lakes in the northern lower peninsula and the entire U.P. Right now. You just have to know ice conditions to be safe. Tight lines fellas!!!
Don't have ice fishing where I live. I cant wrap my head around driving a truck on a frozen lake.
bbodinefan11 that’s why you can’t wrap your head around it
lakes around here have 4 feet of ice, would hold your house
AWESOME video!!! Whew! Thank you so much for sharing this. I couldn't imagine how this truck could be rescued, but now I know lol
No problem, Thanks for your support.
No huge loss, it's a Dodge.
Since 2009 there called fiats lol
Yo ram is the best
Booo
@@mossow71fucking Fiat comes into Chrysler devision ugggghhhhh 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 COME ON MAN WHY EWWWW
They are nice man people shit on them for being rusted mainly and yes they are worst rustlers they all rot in north salt areas. Dodges CAN become unreliable as they age and get high mileage I wouldn’t shit on em. You take care they be good I never had issues other than mileage and age issues not many though
Anyone know How much it can cost to get a truck out of ice like this ??
Wow I was freezing just watching you guys. Great job!
Marcia Ricker thank you. It was actually not that cold just a bit windy... oh and we used hot water for the driver too 🤯
Hi from South -Western ontario Canada I love hard water fishing and experienced the same as pictured on a few years of this sport. in my case it was caused by hitting a spot on the ice sheet caused by leaking gas wells underwater from the surface about 2 feet in diameter that you cannot see travelling at 5 -6 mph on 16 to 24 inches of ice. but with little body damage just had to dry it out and change fluids. and spend 24 to 36 hours of hauling gear and working in a T shirt to keep from sweating too much.Too Much Fun!!!!!!!
Now a days I use a good used Ski Doo Tundra wide track wit a 550 fan cooled machine studded track with low gear intact.i can climb the ice ridges with a floater Arctic Jacket. and gps.
Glad to here you made it... sleds are the way to go, studs and fan cooled. thanks for the comment
Nice work ED
thanks brother
I see what could be a major design flaw in that ice cutting saw: is there anything to stop the blade from rotating around behind the sled and getting the operators legs?
No way for it to do that.. you have to manually crank the blade down.
The front end looks like he was driving when he hit the submerge button
Cutting the ice hole reminds me of the movie 4 Brothers.
Lmao
That was a really good movie. Back when Walhberg wasnt a douche.
Thanks for the video! I always wondered how people did this!
Thanks for the comment, and sadly this was a very bad example...
@@edduda3 Submerged truck is now topside.....no casualties. Seems like a success to me! Cheers.
I think everyone involved in this has to be a little bit crazy.
Fun to watch from my cozy living room though!
Best video ever .
Fishing and diving are open water pursuits. All this for a half full pail of 9 inch perch?
I've watched vehicle recoveries where they constructed a boom over the hole and set the vehicle back on the ice and towed the vehicle back to shore. There was no body damage but to recover a vehicle that way the ice would have to be at least 12 inches thick .
multibasshole yes normally we try that but the ice conditions and distance of 4.5 miles made us go with the shorter distance for safety. Thanks for the reply.
my testis shrank when you guys jumped in.
How much does a salvage operation like that cost
Hey, you're scaring the fish!
LOL, probably!!!
That tow truck operator is working in short sleeves like it is in the middle of summer
it was warmish that day...see why there was thin ice??
Right at 3:16 you see an oil slick pop up in the water. Certainly an indication that some kind of vehicle or machine is right below. I don't know....maybe this comes from being born and raised in Miami but I would not feel comfortable driving a truck out on a frozen body of water. I know people do it all the time and I guess every so often they hit a thin spot in the ice and lose their trucks. My cousin was also born and raised in Miami. He has lived in Minnesota for the last 10 years and he does the ice fishing thing. They tow big camper trailers out on the ice so they can stay out there with all the comforts of home. His trailer is one of those ones that have retracting wheels so the trailer lays flat on the ice. They there are holes in the floor of the trailer so they can fish in the warmth of the trailer. Heat, satellite TV, bathroom, etc. But no need for a cooler...just put the cold stuff outside. LOL. I don't know how he does it.
Probably Bc they know the ice shelf and all natural springs and deadly pressure cracks!!! Thank for the comment.
When the ice stayed breaking down under my truck I just got in it and luckily I was able to slowly drive it off the ice
Still had nice wheels!
That guys going to be paying a hefty penny in fines
All that ground over there and these guys try to park in water. Brilliant.
This is super cool
I live in Wisconsin this happens too much.The state charges you every day it's in the water.Think like $2500.Plus that truck is junk.Have to pay those guys also.Can't be cheap. I always walk out when ice fishing.Can't afford this.
John Cerk how would they know? $2500 a day? Think I'd just walk away and not say anything for what my truck is worth. Actually I wouldn't drive out on the ice to begin with.
if you have full coverage insurance they will cover your vehicle salvage and any damages to the environment.
@@kevinwarwick3532 i thought insurance doesn't cover this as soon as you get out onto the ice? Just like offroading or racing at the track?
From personal experience state farm covers
@@kevinwarwick3532 they are the only one that does here in wisconsin and they only cover the first time it happens
On the bright side, he can reuse the tires and rims...LOL!!!
It always amazes me ,what people get themselves into for a fish.Im not saying don't fish.Im saying you need to know when enough is enough.
ya cant fix stupid
Its the really stupid people who put them through...
Total cost of recovery? And total damage? = complete loss?
I feel bad for you falling through with that little tonka truck. I just took a 110,000lb load across the lake with a Kenworth T800 on Monday. Know your ice guys.
Ice Road truckers Canada
david fitkowski Yes sir. Cheers.
Interesting - was it worth it, how much did it cost
Despite all the 7's on the back of the truck, that truck had no luck!
I can't believe someone stole his radio while it was underwater. Holy tomatoes!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What would a recovery like this cost the truck owner ?
How much does it cost to salvage a vehicle this way?
I smell a rebuilt title in the works...
Why so big a sinker lol
Question. When cutting the ice, does it dull the blade as it does when cutting logs?
Great question... it will due to dirt and debris frozen in the ice. But normally you can run one chain for the year.
Thankyou
Very Cool Job of salvaging that truck
Thank you.
@@edduda3
I live in Canada where MANY trucks go through in manitoba and nw Ontario. I'm interested to know how much u would charge for a recovery like this? 7000G
THAT QUALITY!!!!!
That ice looked so thin to be driving on. 6" ish?
How much for the wheels and tires
Hi....is the Jake from State Farm? Thanks for that great rate. I need to discuss the Dodge Cummins recently added to my policy. Was wondering if I purchased the Stupidity Rider?
If there is no hazard to navigation and not leaking oil,why not leave it until summer??
I'm curious how much would all that cost a person ? Thats pretty thin ice to be driving on ! Don't people check the thickness before going out ...
I used to charge 2500
@Terrence Hughes and if it sinks to the bottom and have to use air bags $$$
I guess it just couldn't Dodge sinking!😂
This is a great video. You guys are awesome. Ive always wanted to see how this is done. I would be soo scared to do this.
What are they trying to save? The engine?
@@jonothandoeser i agree. I am curious if there looking for parts or products. Ive always been curious how they get these things out
@@jameslaiola4976 What confuses me is how the salvage is worth it. Seems like it's expensive what with all the scuba diving etc. And it seems like the truck would be only good for certain parts.
@@jonothandoeser it’s worth scrap price to salvage, but you get extremely high fines everyday it’s in the lake for polluting. The cost can be astounding, so it’s imperative to get it out as quickly as possible.
@@michaelgraber5750 Ahh... so THAT's the reason!
This truck will probably be on McFaddens lot, here in jamestown for 40,000 with a clean carfax.
Yes, because it’s been washed!
Oh hell no. I fell through the ice once. Never again. And you guys driving trucks 2 miles out!
yes is the thickest in the middle of the lake, if you ever noticed, the shores lose the ice first
I’m watching this while I’m about to go drive out to my ice castl that’s a mile and a half out on the lake in Central Minnesota. There is 20” of Ice right now so I have no worries. Some however go out with only 10 inches. I need 15” minimum to drive out.
just watch out for pressure cracks... that's what ate this truck. and lack of knowledge of the area... it never freezes thick were this guy drove. good luck fishing
good luck lol
Looks like a lot of effort with the air bags check out sunk n dive out of Oshkosh they do it way quicker with chains and a ganrty
if you have good ice yes... out best ice was 5-6" , but I think the skid sea-saw method is pretty slick too.
That truck was like new before these guys got ahold of it
Hello Jake from state farm say I hit a fish the other day am I covered
Thanks for your hard and dangerous work to keep this hazards out of the water. Bet the owner dosent do this again
Bruce Langley I hope that it doesn’t happen again and we are happy no one was injured.
Anybody know how much that salvage cost ?
That sucks well your rims still look good
Y'all caught a nice megalodon cab. There rare!
So is spelling apparently.
That cummins shipping container is in rough shape
It was a very hard recovery. She was pulled thru some thick ice.
Just another reason to install a snorkel on your truck, 'cause you don't know how deep the next pothole 's gonna be.
Good job men.
Was it this truck‘s onwer drove this truck just like sherp?
Looked like 6 inches of ice there........... come on man! Oh well makes for good fishing stories 😎
Yeah it was too thin for 7000 pound truck!!!!
Mark Nothing I believe you need 12 inches of thickness here in Canada Ontario
It’s still good it’s just a little wet
I will never put my so loved pick-up in this kind of trouble...😄
Could that Truck be fixed? Better question is it worth to be fixed. I was always told the second you pull on to the ice your car insurance stops.
Anything can be fixed... in this case not worth it and insurance will cover until your contract ie policy is completed. Then you renew... I'm sure your premium will increases a bit...lol
I'd leave it and mark it on my GPS, would make some nice structure lol
One less Dodge on the road isn’t a bad thing.
So did you cut a channel all the way back to the boat launch from 2 miles out?
No just to shore probably 400-500 ft before it became too dangerous to cut. Used an ice boat and broke up the rest of the way to shore.
I have been involved with a good number of this kind of recovers, good work guys but you work way to hard, we lift them out and get the vehicle back to shore with out putting another scatch on the vehicle, 3 man job. This rig also can float the vehicle in open water
Yes we can remove them that way also with zero ice or 12 plus but this case was probably the worst conditions I have ever removed a 7k# Chunk of steel. It was fine until it hit the shore and flipped. Send me pics of your rig... I’m building a teeter toddler sled atv setup.
The rig I work with pretty much any ice or no ice it works well, goggle bay side ice and marine recovery should see some photos.
What did it cost to get the truck out?? Thanks
Wow man...dangerous work. Things can go very wrong very quickly...but I don’t need to tell YOU that.
Major props to your team. What’s the average an insurance company pays you guys for a job similar to this one? Ballpark if you’d so oblige. Thank you.
thank you. It not that dangerous or at least we do not take chances for a scrap steel pile and price numbers are all over due to conditions, depth and spills.
I'm missing something here. Why is there so much damage on the truck for falling thru the ice in the middle of the lake?
Cause the ice doesn't break cleanly around the truck it usually breaks one end first then the ice fucks up shit. Depending on how thick it was.
@@richardsimmons6526 not like that. Theres missing parts. U csnt tell me ice did it. Theres more to the story
Same here. I just posted on this exact concern. In Miami when you have a vehicle go in the water by accident it usually isn't all smashed up. I guess the ice can do some damage but that thing looks like it was run into a brick wall at 50 MPH plus it looks like stuff missing from the dash.
Ok he was going to fast and hit some thin ice.
And the missing parts are on the bottom.
How get so much body damage just for sunkin in water ?
good job guys stay safe
Knew it would be a dodge before even reading the title.
Always a fine idea to drive a large and heavy truck on the ice rather than a light weight vehicle (like a snowmobile with a sled for example) as you can clearly see. And no insurance will pay for it and shouldn't.
Using a truck lure is overkill. All you need is a five and diamond😂
good ol third gen shipping crate
What was the cost for this recovery ?
