- HELLO RUclipsrs
Thanks for joining me again! NEARLY AT 15K SUBS!!!!
Hopefully you enjoy this content, as you know with me everything is 110% real and I say it how it is! LONG STORY CUT SHORT...
Lady got stuck on some grass on a holiday event scouts event thing.. called her breakdown company to attend to pull her out, but after nobody turned up, she waited for the next day and started calling us for a quote etc as wanted her vehicle out, but circumstances I needed photos to understand what I was dealing with to quote on the job, rather than going in fully blind.
SOME TIME LATER from midday to about 16:30 over 4 hours later after lots of backwards and forwards she said her breakdown company attended with a 3rd party, but the recovery lorry got stuck and she rang us back straight away to give us the go ahead to go and get her vehicle out, as she knew it was going to be a long night!
AND thats what we did!
One call to GDB and the JOB GETS DONE.
Personally I wouldn't normally post another op stuck as im always happy to help where I can, but after having my toes stepped on too many times by the owner, it is what it is!
Its a valuable lesson learnt, and more training I would say is required.
IF IN DOUBT, WALK IT OUT!
Hopefully you enjoy the content and the ACTION!

From working for a contractor to now working for the big orange group, I've gained a lot of respect for you following this video. In no way would I ever have thought of taking a truck down that track, we'd have DMAX lads not drive down there, crazy.
Up until the muddy bit looked exactly like the goat trails I used to go down in a tandem axle tanker with 20,000L of gasoline in it.
Have driven 26t car transporter, going crazy places, but one moment here.. When hard ground ended.. I walk to see the situation and here I wouldn't even reverse mine in :) it's soft it sinks in 1 sec and road tyres become worse than on ice
Greg mate. Brilliant video as always. You mentioned fiesta van. Can we please have a update on the fleet and your honest opinions on all the equipment you have and use. But as always brilliant keep it up.
good job, we recovered one of there slidebeds out of a feld on christmas day by the A5 north wales. Had to get the Foden out for it 😆
Nice job Greg, always nice to out smart a “big player”😂. Always better to have too much kit than not enough. Keep up the great content. 👍🏽😎
Wouldn't call Burke a big player wannabe maybe but deffo not big, he is like a kid in a sweetshop with daddies credit card
Excellent Greg, good to see what goes around comes around, also no such thing as over equipped 😉
Went over equipped but kept it simple, nice work
Way over equipped indeed! But better to have than have not! Thanks for watching! GDB
@@GDBRescueandrecovery nice to see it kept simple once youve seen the situation, but it's always great to have the kit when you need it
110% couldnt agree more! Keep it simple! See you on the next one!
Danger! Enjoyed the video BUT - when I saw you sit the shackles on top of your rear load area I winced at the lack of a cargo barrier. Then you appeared to put all the heavy stuff in the drawers and I sighed relief, but no!, there was a massive shackle behind your head the whole time just sitting on top of the drawer unit.
In Oz if a worksafe inspector saw that video you'd be getting a visit Monday! Love your rig and equipment, but that's as dangerous as hell to not have a cargo barrier between you and those massive lumps of metal.
Secondly, being in Oz, our 4wd actiion is pretty hard core and I've personally seen a tow hook break and come through the back window and embed itself in the cargo barrier - you are doing recovery for a living so more likely to happen if that dodgy threaded hook let go and shot straight at you. Thanks for the great content.
99.9 percent of the lads at Burke bros are top lads and they have respect for all other recovery drivers
Any decent tilt and slide driver would have pushed himself with the body
Any decent driver would have reversed down,got to the field and realised it was too soft.
That truck was an SLA so no effective pushing. Trust me I tried
And I'm not the driver of the slide bed by the way. But I've been in similar situation
Sometimes the ground is too soft to push yourself out. I drove one truck that had a horrible dump angle and wouldn't have pushed at all. If I was on a slight downgrade picking a vehicle from a plateau sometimes the deck wouldn't touch the ground. Don't miss that POS truck. One I drive now I can tilt tf out of it. No more shaking cars off in park, tilt it till it slides 😀
@@markfarminer5319 oh yeah you never been stuck have you?
Looks lovely
Keep up the good work too many sly companies out. respect from MIA TRANSPORT
Awesome job done mate with a good video 👍👍👍
Hello Andrew thanks for checking in as per usual! Appreciate it!! GDB
The lr tyre swap music is ace ! Just makes me chilled out before the job ,you should wear a sombrero 😂
I've camped at that place for about 20 years now, and that field is always a bog! Years ago, they wouldn't let people drive down there (or on any field for that matter), but since the change of management it's a free-for-all. Heck, even a Discovery 2 has struggled in that field before on General Grabbers!
Oh really?! Looks like it was bound to happen, especially with all rain water running down the bank! Thanks for watching! GDB
Honestly Greg an amazing video really was amazing the disco looks great too and what was that truck doing down there and what was his plans 😂well done greg
I bet that felt so sweet! These boys will get all the big bucks jobs from Highways England too. Strange isn't it? Its the same everywhere, and the damage these type of operations can do "recovering" is unmentionable. Quite often more damage is done by ham fisted recovery than during the mishap itself. Easy job that could have been done in any number of ways. A Hi Lux /Isuzu/Navara/LS200 would have also done this with the correct tyres. The Towing eye error could have ended BADLY for them too in terms of vehicle and personal injury. Biggest is not always best. Most suitable is always best.. Great work Greg!
Lovely job, you did brilliant. Burke can't be that intelligent
What a burke🤔🤣that driver was,surely a walk down first to have a look would have been the proper way and second he obviously thought he could turn around in that field to load the car up😂😂shame the owner sounds like a 🔔but i enjoyed you enjoying getting it out infront of those 2 professionals 😂better to carry to much than not enough greg,love the different camera angles aswell👍🙂
😂 fair play to u well done I had a callout for a car on its roof & thought Mr Gdp would love this for content good job I got there and police already removed it
Awesome video upload 👌
Thanks so so much appreciate it! GDB
Well done ✅
If your ever stuck for a sling mate use the hideous chain thats round yer neck 😂😂😂
Great job Craig
Gwaaaaan Greg another great vlog
Hello Andy! Thanks for watching appreciate it!! See you on the next one! GDB
Disco looks great, lights look the part and over equipped is better than stuck and egg on your face!
Nicely done.
Thanks for watching Paul!
Here we go boom 👍👍👍👍easy job
Evening Knights! Thanks for tuning in as per usual 😜 highly appreciated !!! GDB
@@GDBRescueandrecovery not a problem hope you and the family are well keep the brilliant content coming
my old man had a call off wmas once for some off road training for pretty much the same reason, no knowledge, they had their 2 new disco's, had an emergency at a farm, didn't walk the field to see if it was pass-able, barrelled in one behind another, both got stuck.
Jesus not good that! , seen it a 1000x before always better to be safe than sorry! Especially for them when mostly run road tyres probably!
Always nice to show who they should have called first.
Random: What horn have you fitted to the D4?
Exactly 😂 , its called a bull horn!
Gotta love easy jobs like that, even better if you can show up a competitor! What was the purpose of taking a photo of the customers mileage?
I guess it's for the invoice, just another line of data that ties the car to the job.
What make are your wheel chocks? Been looking for a decent set but yet to find one
great vid,what size m/t tyres did you buy i like the look of them and fancy a pair on my disco 4
Afternoon on them alloys are 255-55-19 !
Good old Burke bros, just be thankful you’re not moving house 😂 if you know you know
No comment! Thanks for watching! GDB
That is incredible, ive pulled out similar to the c max with my volvo xc60 on mitchelin cross climate tires! Albeit flat ground.
Who in their right mind would atempt to drive the tilt bed truck down the track without walking it.
Nice work!
But what do you do with you POV shot?
If this is a GoPro or some other Actioncam then why is it so bad quality?
Sent a tilt and slide, got a slide and tilt.
😂😂😂😂
Grass is nightmare to drive on. You need a 4x4 decent tyres. Any lorry will get stuck on grass. Been a hgv mixer driver 30 years. Always getting stuck on sites. Very easy to do damage when you get bogged down radiator oil cooler sump and burn a clutch out rip mudguards off. Sand is also another bad thing to drive on will strip a differential because of the shock loading seen it done .😁❤
ah wicked proper bad man changing the wheels ... big !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Suprised they didn't send the diving team 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Fair play Greg good video. What is that milwaukee torch ? 🔦
Evening thanks for tuning in! Ill try get some videos up soon of my lighting equipment!!
@@GDBRescueandrecovery look forward to it
How to knacker air suspension. Always open the tailgate before jacking discovery or rangerover
If the customer had been driving a manual car they could probably have rocked it back and forth and got it out . No way I would have a taken a 10 or 12 ton truck down that track .
hI Greg you might want to have a look at Yankum Ropes and Soft Shckles from the US?
Gregory making them look silly well done bro
Thanks for the watch 😎
Ive been wanting to know this for ages where did you get your tow rope from as I'd love a proper tow rope instead a strop! great to see your d4 in action!
Good question ive had these for years!! Ill try have a gander possibly off a shop on ebay comes to mind!
I've used a UK company called rope services, ropes are made to order to the length and spec you want.
They use strips because they are safety weight rated for insurance reason, ropes aren’t.
the right tool for the right job nice work ( better to have too many ad ons snatch blocks ropes choakers etc
Thanks for watching! Yes better to have than have not, way overkill but always ask for photos to understand the scenario but 2 pictures was all i could get! GDB
Them lads were gutted 😂😂
Well done but no matter what your history with that company, That customer will sing your praises much more than a little gloating will give you jobs.
Hi mate how are u ok mate keep up there good work on here am big fan of u do a rally good job on here mate keep up there good work on here. Mate keep up there good work
Where is Rugely is that country park it looks nice
9:03
"Would have given this a go in my fiesta van!"
110%!b
My job would’ve been done if I towed the truck out aswell…can’t understand how you can feel satisfied with what u dun.
I aint running no charity business 😂
Dose the orange bacon's need to be on in a field???😂
I cant believe he took that tilt and slide into that field
Yeah preety crazy eh 🙈😂
why did they send a heavy recovery lorry down there when a lighter vehicle (the car) got stuck? Is it just me being stupid or is it not obvious that a large heavy lorry (or truck) would also get stuck
Hey chaps. Are all towing hooks reverse thread?
Preety sure they are these days!
Are you IVR trained?
I’d of had a go at pulling the Volvo out, it’ll either take hardly any effort at all… or It’ll move 1ft and dig the front in 😂
I would of done if owner paid 😜 . Yeah only two outcomes for that all or nothing 😂😂
spot the bolt in the tyre
I drove passed you last night lol
Ahh thanks for the spot! GDB
Charging her by the hour, but still wasting time setting up your camera, taking pics, running back and forth, stopping to take more pics. Don't slag the other guy off, when you are being disrespectful yourself. Do your job ASAP and act professional.
If you watched all the video, there were no additional charges… ✌️
One day you may want their help
hello my friend, I am your subscriber needed a Daf 45 cummins 5.9 6 bt engine, can you advise where you can buy such an engine, thank you for the answer
🤘😎🤘
Thanks for watching! GDB
what were they doing down there ? a bit of dogging :)
'ey up greg 😎
Evening Richard! How you doing!! Thanks for tuning in as always!
@gdbrescuerecovery Great thanks. So no love lost between you and Burke Bros then? 😆😆😆
@@RichardArblaster good good!! And absolutely NOT 😂😂😂
@@GDBRescueandrecovery 🤣🤣🤣
Awesome man cracking vid and got some amazing pics of the fleet keep up the great work !
Evening Kenneth! Thanks for tuning in! Appreciate it as always! See you on the next one!
Have you seen the off-road hanker looks like a bought hanker ?
Evening Mr Jones i have not but will have a look soon! 😃
What are the chances of this showing up on my feed, I got a 7ton hiab lorry stuck in a field here in Scotland - highlands last night… oops 😅 local farmer and his tractor pulled us down hill.
Wait whut?!? 4x2 truck on wet grass? 🤣🙈 Call the Dutchies we will send some 10x8 or 10x10 's 😆😅
To easy mate.
Thanks for watching! GDB
Too*
👍🙂
Beep that horn 📣📣📣📣📣📣🤣🤣
Well I could have towed that out with my Morris Minor
Probably could as well 🤣
Shouldn’t be towing an automatic in drive really that’s one great way of damaging the transmission should’ve had him in neutral but good video.
A flatbed truck sent to recover a car that was stuck so little. could of pulled that out with any car
That recovery driver driver must be a berk but with an e
It is best to take more equipment than you need and not use it,.
Hi Do you need some great lighting for your car to help you better driving, off-road? We're the pro auto lighting company for nearly 20 year and we're looking for sponsorship!
Thanks for watching welcome to send an email to gdbrescueandrecovery@mail.com , thanks Greg GDB
They was defo dogging
😂😂😂
One day you will do something silly and they will take your pics and post them. Karma sucks. That is why I don't discredit the competition. It goes both ways
Already been done many years ago!
Tow in drive??? Didn't you mean neutral? oh well it worked.
Afternoon! YES by having customer in DRIVE would help when going up the hill rather than pulling a dead weight, doesn't look very steep on camera. Thanks! GDB
Burke bros… complete waste of time. I used them to recover my bus broken down on a busy main road couple years ago. They came out with that truck, didn’t have any equipment or anything to actually safely recover my bus back to yard. So he had to take me back to my workshop, to get my tools and other stuff just to be able to get back to my yard. 13 hours it took from the moment they told me they were on the way to when we got back to my yard. Furthermore to this, the backend of my bus was completely grounded out going into the yard….
Why recovery truck not winched himself.?
Why run scrap metal? why not get a Touareg instead...nothing quite like putting it out there on the telly that you are a helmet/rocket ship hybrid.....
Why photo of mileage🤔
Just incase crashed 500 miles later due to mud on tyres etc
Good point!
Will you get a td5 disco 2
Evening Sarah! Not quite my cup of tea! No real reason just dont get me going, see alot of them about meant be good off road weapons! Thanks for tuning in!! GDB
Eyes wide shut m8
karma lol
Haha thanks for watching
Spending time with cameras really
Without the cameras nothing to see here 📸
Absolutely nothing impressive on this video a Subaru would have pulled it out on road tyres no problem
Standard job unfortunately, could of pulled with my fiesta van
Never known anyone take as many pictures and videos and chat as much pony as this chap....
If i didnt take any pictures or videos there would be nothing to watch on youtube 😅
Ok Mr Burke, we understand. 😭
Bit of a helmet you mate 🫠
thanks for the watch GDB
I’d of had a go at pulling the Volvo out, it’ll either take hardly any effort at all… or It’ll move 1ft and dig the front in 😂
If he paid a few pounds off the credit card i would of got it done 🥲 winch on rear plenty of trees around!! Thanks for watching! GDB
@gdbrescuerecovery all the gear and mr Burke and his dad's removal and diving team have not idea mate, rather have all the ideas and very little gear. Why waste millions on kit you can't use 🤔 😂
