What was with the corny music during my footage at the wrecker games?? 😂😂
😂😂 all in good fun! Everyone knows you're the GOAT!
It’s funny, that’s the song that plays in my head every time I hang out with you, Rory.
It wasn't corny music Rory! it was nonchalant music. And you handled that trail so nonchalantly that the music really seemed fitting. You even took out time to help the other drivers with their problems.
I think he was playing it to show it was just another day at work for you guys
@@azonly1fallenangel972 exactly! Rory was bored lol
The title of this video caught me off guard. I thought it some kind of hit piece on Matt originally. Glad to see that's not the case. He seems like a genuinely good person trying to do good things. Definitely undeserving of some of the hate I've seen from time to time sprout up on RUclips.
He did get in mild trouble (from an article I read) in trying to help customers bill the offroad tow as a claim with insurance. Otherwise, he seems as genuine and nice, and man did we grow up in the same time period, always throwing timely movie or show quotes in (as will Paul in his vids) as he works. Love these guys's channels.....
@@TRKISH324t was a class 2 felony before he pled guilty and got a misdemeanor.
Moral of the story is, don't tell your customers to get AAA coverage before filing a claim to get a cheaper bill, and don't tell AAA you recovered a truck and then show the video of the exact date of said recovery proving you only recovered a razor.
All in all I think the people who were actually mad about Matt trying to help the customer even if it was illegal can go cry, I don't know anyone who would feel sympathy for AAA in any of these situations.
Yeah he seems like a nice guy. I still hate the clickbait. It makes me stop watching people. It shows that it's about the money now ...........moving on
Yes, total clickbait
@@camustang1966 Definitely clickbait
Matt is easily the best off-road RUclips channel. He’s helped so many other channels grow and explode too.
I like how down to earth Matt is. No ego, no attitude, just get it done.
I think it's a big part of his success.
Yes, thats what i see and feel too.
Its so constructive with positivity instead of negativity.
He is only like that for youtube. Behind the scenes he's a totally different guy
@@23bobjrthat’s no lie. I met him 2 days ago and honestly he is a VERY odd person to talk with. Not much of a talker or people person. Maybe he just has to know someone really well to conversate.
But Paul from fab rats is a hell of a guy in person.
Matt seems like a awesome person he's giver not a taker and he leaves people in better shape than he found and he helps all kinds of people no matter what he gets them safe
I totally agree with you about this 👍 💯
But why doesn't Matt defend homosexual special tights ?
No way he's mexican !
Matt isn't Mexican fool you can see that or are you blind why protect the LGBT huh
@Tiffany Smith I follow Matt's channel and he really does seem like a nice guy and I do plan on going to Utah just to meet him along with a few other's in Utah so back off fool 😀
@@benjurqunov What? Ain't no kiddie fu€|
I came across Matt's channel a few years ago just randomly really. Since then I have never missed an episode. Through that I also discovered Fab Rats which is also now one of my favorite, never miss, channels. Because of those two I also now watch MischeifMaker, Trailmater, Rudy's Adventures, and a few others. Matt and his crew has that secret sauce when it comes to RUclips channels.
I’m with you there
Me too. Add Robby Layton to your list of channels.
@@rdg9024 I watch all of his also. Matt Fab Rats and Robbie have new videos every Sunday, Wednesday, and Fridays.
Same, I love these guys
Matt and family, and crew, are really just a bunch of good, down to earth folks who have a following!
So grateful for this channel!
God Bless all of you! ❤
I really took that last part of the segment to heart, it struck home. Way back before there was any of this recovery equipment, my friends and I spent lots of time in the desert & mountains with our pickup trucks. Camping, exploring, and we helped a lot of people out (mostly Jeeps). We always had chains, ropes, shovels, hi-lift jacks and some 2"x6" lumber, we'd help people dig out, get pulled out, etc. People were nice & grateful BUT now you help get someone out and next day they want to sue you because you scratched their paint! It's become pretty ugly so I understand what you say about litigation and negative comments.
I don't know if you have seen the episodes where Matt damages something during the recovery but he always says he will get it repaired for them or at least offers to repair it. Sometimes they say to forget about it because he helped them. He is always wiling to repair what he damages. He holds himself responsible even when the recovery is extremely difficult and is almost guaranteed to damage something.
After watching Matt and team upgrade the Banana, build the MORRVair and the Heavy Wrecker from the frame up, I wouldn't doubt that the side-by-side rig is going to be awesome, regardless of how baked it is.
they are going to use the samorri
Side by side recovery rig is gonna be a 6x6 roll back built on those extra MRAP axles
@@philb5593 Or maybe those axles are going to fabrats for the bus build ...?
They just got an old potato hauling truck that looks perfect for those axles they got, gonna be a beast of a off-road rollback.
@@carolperry7695 That's what I was thinking. Fingers crossed
I would love to see Matt bring along an engineering or physics student (or two) to a recovery and explain in a fun way the forces involved with winches and whatnot.
And maybe have the guys from Yankem Ropes do the same thing, again not going too heavy on the math, but giving us some idea of the forces involved and how they compare to other examples in the real world. I think this would make a fun episode for the channel.
SmarterEveryDay would be a great collab!! His video about snatch blocks was so interesting
Seconded! Factor of safety and where the pull is in relation to maximum safe pull: civil engineer on highways and this used to be by day job jotting down calcs in the field and yelling to the crew "you're good, do it!"
Fortnine.
What value would that be to a physics student. Its pretty basic stuff lol
Also, Tom has a Masters degree in physics and another degree in Nuclear Engineering if I'm not mistaken.
I am not a big off road person, but a big fan of Matt's channel. I think Matt's positive energy, honesty of each situation, interesting jobs, certainly the potential danger induced excitements all keep me coming back to Matt's channel. Great interview.
So often I've been disappointed when a show I watch turns out to be just a scripted "reality show" mashup.
But Matt and MORR are the real deal. Great bunch of people, helping others. 😎👍
Love how humble Matt and the crew are... They are very thankful for what they can do...
Matt, his family and crew are such good people. I wish them all the success in the world👍🏽🍺
Good interview. Thanks for this. Really sad that something as wholesome as MORR has to deal with people suing and / or threats to sue. Strange world we live in.
There are always predators/scavengers who try to litigiously get "their share" of someone else's hard work.
Love the editing!!🎉🎉 the cut to Rory was priceless 🎉🎉🎉🎉 👍👍
Matts off road recovery is a really wholesome channel. Good crew, good vibes, helping people by getting them out. Helping good causes. Making cool stuff. RUclips needs more channels like this and the world needs more good people like those found at Matts off road recovery.
I've watched Matt's channel from the beginning years ago, watched many different crew / characters pass thought while new members join the show along the way. It's very clear to me what keeps me watching along with others who make this channel popular. It's Matt himself. Other off road channels are missing that key element, a self-effacing fun loving free wheeling common man. Matt is the spark that keeps me watching ever episode his very talented support crew produce for him.
Great interview. Thank you Matt for all the entertainment we get on youtube , And all you do for people in need. Thank you Decent Garage. Smart thinking your youtube will grow just for having Matt on your page. People see his yellow cars and hit you up and BOOM you grow. Lucky man. Matt I hope you think up something great to build. And please stay humble and kind in life. Don't forget side by sides built your chanel most fans drive them. We look forward to a wild side by side recovery rig. Think of taking comments on what to build. A 100k minds are better than 1. Who knows what ideas you may get. Matt you met me at the Easter car show year before last. Fan John Wunschel Old Hangtown ca.
Great video, awesome interview. I can't wait for what you and Matt do next!
Hi;
Cummins 12 valve diesels have a lot of low rpm grunt for rock climbing, and steady power through the rpm range without breaking.
Merlon beat the he'll out of his truck at the games, especially when pulling the fleet of vehicles on the beach without launching a piston, or spinning a bearing.
Your large monstrosity would do well with a slightly hopped up Cummins.
The great thing about them is you may go stock or put 1000 hp into them, and still maintain reliability, and longevity.
Happy recoveries
Michael Rzewuski
Matt and Rory addressed this numerous times, diesel dont have the throttle response and modulation for crawling with a customer vehicle in tow. What Merlin did with his truck was a nice show, but useless for recovery business - you cant have your customers vehicle dangling at the end of a rope like a tin can as you just floor it through obstacles. The wrecker games wasnt a realistic competition, it was all just a show, most evidently by the fact that it was encouraged to bribe the judges. 😅
I imagine there are ways to mitigate the issues, but why bother when it works just fine with an 8.4L big block and the gearing to run it in its optimal power band without the wheels spinning?
We love your videos. Especially the whole family and friends that we have gotten to know thru your videos. You have done so much for your family and community. Wish you more success in the future. Keep up the awesome videos. 👌
I wasn't sure what I was expecting when I clicked on this video... but you done did good! I just knew in my heart there is no way there's a dark side to Matt. And I am happy to still be able to say that after watching this. I like your style and therefore just subscribed.
I hope there's more like this to come. 👍
Oh... and let's see that Cummins build Matt!
Thanks! I've got videos like this with fabrats, Rudy, and Rory on my channel and I'm editing my visit with Merlin. If you like Cummins stuff you'll like my channel too 👍
There are some things from the early days of his RUclips channel. I remember he had nice intro and outro music as well as nice drone shots of them driving through he desert and other places they go. I also miss how Matt and Ed used to open fan mail together.
Nice job guys Matt and company are the best I am looking forward to many more years of their jobs, adventures and more.
I like the way you put together the highlights of a lot of different recoveries, and the different muscial backgrounds.... short and entertaining.
Matt and his family and associates around his business are excellent people. For me one of his best recoveries when they hook 3 recovery vehicle together to pull another vehicle out of trouble. It took a lot of coordination and working together. All the best.
I enjoy the interviews you do with companies and shops owners like this one.
That crazy jeep recovery was the video that brought me into this corner of RUclips. I have a basic jeep and have always enjoyed off roading but it’s not what I watch on RUclips. For some reason a video about to recovery safety and a guy who died in Arizona popped up and I watched that. I think that’s what made Matt’s recovery show up and ever since then I’ve been watching
The thumbnail on this is hilarious! Great interview. It really is great seeing more behind the scenes with Matt and crew.
Thank you! It seems very click baity but in all honesty it reflects exactly how matt answered that question haha
@@decentgarage right?! My first instinct was “Come on Tim, you’re better than that,” but once I watched the video, I don’t think you could have captured it better! 🤣
I thought it was about the AAA fraud case.
@@realanimal3602 my thoughts exactly. no doubt, matt didnt wanna talk about it.
Love this guy. Hope I can be half of what he is in his community one day.
Thank you for making this. You have answered some more of what I sometimes wonder about Matt.
A rising tide lifts all boats. I think it's great so many get this, and that people like Matt get this and try to lift their communities up with the means from their successes.
Knowing that Matt and his team is out there gives me more confidence to take my Mojave back out on the trails in Utah!
Yes Matt should have a Diesel of road recovery truck it will be Awesome to see it getting built and see it in action doing recovery work
I am forever grateful for the opportunity to come to the USA and meet you. Thank you so much matt
What a great family show, so informative for young and old drivers and off-roaders. Planning and safety treasures for everyone. Every young driver should be required to follow Matt before ever taking to the country. Love the show Matt. You are one fine example to my family.
Great interview thank you. I have such an admiration for Matt and the whole family and community.
Great questions on this interview. I enjoy the video. Was wondering about Matt and diesel engines for a long time now. Seems like the right tool for the job he does.
This was SO enjoyable to hear about how you got started, the different phases of your success…Love your Shows!
This was a brilliant video, really enjoyed watching it. Thank you
I first saw Matt and the crew when they took the future Golden Nugget out of the bush a couple years ago and i haven't missed an episode since then. Really look forward to every episode. Me and a few million other people love it!
Thanks for asking the questions we all have after getting addicted to Matt's videos! One of Matt's strengths is he is not trying to be something or someone he isn't. Cool under pressure, considerate, generous, and gregarious. An appealing combination that doesn't dally one second before getting on the ground and "fixing" it. The "Plain folks" appeal still works. Same goes for all his friends and professional recovery folks, and their channels.
I'm glad you enjoyed it 👍
Excellent job doing the interview. Thanks for sharing it.
I have been following Matt and M.O.R.R. since he had 12 k . It been a awesome blast following his channel.
I found his channel at around 30000 subs. I remember how happy he was to get a 100 thou. I bought his first hoodie. I don’t know how many people have commented how much they love him and family to me when I wear it. Go Matt!!!
New side-by rig will be a Golden Nugget2.0😉
Thanks for a really good off story on Matt's channel, maybe the best I've seen. It kinda encompasses the man and the vision. In these days of political turmoil, It's refreshing to see this down to earth and down in the mud crew do what they do. I love it. I also love the backdrop of the beautiful landscape, second to none.
Great interview I enjoyed it!!
Matt is an amazing person and his whole crew is awesome
When I first saw the thumbnail, I thought it would be some other **** ****, putting Matt down for his success out of jealousy.
I was so glad to see that it was just Matt helping another channel grow. He's pretty dang generous with doing that.
I also remember that Merlin just tore the hell out of stuff going up that hill. Off road recovery requires them to be careful not to damage the customer's car. I'm not so sure Merlin's any good at that.
I avoided this video like the plague for the same reason. Oh, another click bait thumbnail of Matt's ORR. After a week with it being up I was click baited in by the thumbnail and curiosity to see how bad it could be.
Merlin know how, but Merlin was putting on a show, and he put on a heck of a show!
@@scottstone4948 exactly.
Really solid interview, no fluff, great job.
I've watched so much of Matt's OffRoadRecovery RUclips channel content that the only thing in this video that I didn't know what how Merlin dominated the ORWG, since I haven't yet caught up with much content related to that event... seen everything else, almost. Great interview. Matt and team remain high on my list of good people. Hope to meet them one day. Stay safe out there!
Love your honesty! Rock on!
Him/they ncluding, positive, helpfull, creating a positive place and wibe for others to hang on to.
And that he never stops gives me a lot of motivation...
been following these guys for ages, I love their attitude to every job they take on, no matter how bad.
I love a humble man and Matt is just that and he always treats his wife with love and respect
I remember when I first watched Matt yank em out with just a rope that he called the yank em rope that was designed like a bungee cord type thing...After it stretched out it was so amazing how easy it looked when that lil Banana Jeep yanked everything out on the sand piles and beaches like it wasn't nothing..I got hooked on Matt's Recovery instantly and I still watch the clips although he does alot of sketchy Recoverys now that puts me on the edge of my seat for hours and hours...I love all of the crew he has and I have never seen Matt get upset as well as the rest of em...I'm sure that he didn't get to where he's at overnight but they've all done a fantastic job of getting to where they are today..May God always bless them all and keep them safe with each and every Recovery they do...
I really look forward to watching Matts channel and he has managed to build a great team around him. I wouldn't underestimate the impact that having Lizzie, the strong young female role model, has on the channel. She is a breath of fresh air, prepared to do anything with a great positive outlook in things. If she does (as seems likely?) move away from a big invoilvement in the channel it will leave a hole that need to be filled.
I had a chance to spend some time with Matt and his family on a mandated trucking lay-over. I parked my big rig on the street outside his compound and got to meet everyone except Rudy and Rhett. The brilliance of this family is they are absolutely genuine. They are the same people in person as they are on the videos. Matt appreciates his audience and takes the time to engage with them in conversation. Jaymie is the same ray of sunshine in person and I got to see her working shoulder-to-shoulder with Matt in her lovely dress and sandals to load up a trailer. His kids are so confident and competent it just brings a tear to your eye, especially in a generation of so many NPC children.
But I pray his public, his fanbase and the World in general treats them well. It would be a shame to let the few grifters, malcontents and frivolous litigators to spoil something very unique and precious on RUclips.
Merlin is a diesel wizard. How do you think he got his name. 😂
They all do an outstanding job. Thank you.
Another awesome interview. Great job.
Very well put together video. Great angles and footage.
Thanks 👍
Don't know why you showed up in my recommended videos but I recognize my mountains in your background. Subscribed!
Wow i have to say like im sure many other MORR fans i wasn't a fan of your video title originally. You more then pointed out in your video Matt and the MORR team are amazing in so many positive ways and im glad i watched! That being said wow you showed some amazing clips i can't imagine how much time and effort went into picking them! Great job Decent Garage you earned a new subscriber outta me!
Thanks for this comment man! Everything you said is perfectly said. I'm glad you enjoyed the editing and the clips I included. It is a ton of work to get all those gathered up. Sorry for the semi-click bait title and thumbnail, but the thumbnail depicts his response to that question 🤣. Anyways, I appreciate you taking the time to comment and I hope you enjoy my videos as well 👍
Great video.
You got me with MORR.
Then you got some great footage with a bunch of the regulars, Fab Rats, Trail Mater, nd some of the other greats!
Thanks for the vid.
thanks for the interview. filled in gaps in Matts history.
I'd LOVE to see Matt do a Cummins build in the near future!!
He's said a lot in the early days diesel engines dont do well for his type recoveries
watching from Ireland really enjoy watching Matts offroad recovery
My favorite thing about them is how much they clean up sites they’re on. Like when they were getting the old Jeep through the River it was shedding papers; and they continually picked up the garbage as they went along. Great to see a team preserving our beautiful outdoors
Fascinating thanks for making it.
Matt should do a diesel build of some kind. Lots of options beyond a cummins, but I'd be very very excited to see a diesel off road recovery vehicle from MORR
Matt is low key the internets dad I always look forward to seeing whats coming next seeing the crew doing their stuff etc all the lessons and wisdom he gives
Nice job on the interview-excellent questions
so glad i watched this!!! thank you for your time
Great Interview! Thank You.
Great idea to interview Matt. Well done.
I hope Matt will give advice in a book for trails to ride for off road bikes that are rated for riders, even if he has to have help! Yes I know trails change but most of the trails look good for quads and trail bikes except some of the slick rocks maybe! I’ve been watching the videos and love them! His family, friends, and gang are a great group to watch! He has taught me a lot!
love the channel love the snow recoveries
Great interview. Thank you!
There is nothing better than Matt's Off Road Recovery. Best show on earth. Hands down. 😊😊😊
I knew he would say getting sued is the downside of fame. When enough people see that you have something, they want to take it. It's the same everywhere. You just need to budget it in.
Haha good point! Expect to have that happen.
I absolutely love Matt and his crew! My goal is just too go get stuck so i can just meet anyone on his crew or possibly him!!
I wonder how many people do exactly this. Definitely a few
They all had rock n roll and you had the champagne menagerie!!! It was meant to show the difference in techniques, your just so graceful, Rory, be proud we all love you for it. Your not a showoff your just good!
A fantastic show. God bless you all.
The down to earth wholesomeness of this bedroom community with LDS values, are as delightfully welcomed as it is needed across Social media platforms thanks Matt
Great interview…thanks 🙂
I'll be there, looking forward to the next one
Thanks Cliff 👍
One of these summers 1 of these days I'm gonna get up there and go meet everybody because it's way too cool , Everybody seems so down-to-earth and it looks like they're just having fun . Wish I could do offer over recovery but there's a lot to learn.!
I was curious where the abundance of random Decent Garage hats and shirts in Matt's recent vids came from....makes sense now!
Merlin is the Cummins guy. Leave it to him. Don't cross mix too much. I love all of you guys for what you do individually. I truly wish I could join one of your teams. I've built rock crawlers and fabbed my own stuff. Turned out great too on the first time out. Love doing that kind of thing. Searching for a new project right now actually. But I need to live somewhere that there are hang gliding locations near by so that I can get back into it.
I remember back in the day when they had hang glider events off of Grandfather Mtn in North Carolina.
Matt, as a fellow of road sxs rider, I love your channel I reside in Sacramento California was in hurricane utah 2 weeks ago and on June 8th when leaving home I Sean the morvier on highway 15 made my trip lol I was supper excited to see matts of road car I spent 2 days at sand hallow and was looking for u guys but when I Sean u drive on highway on the way home made my week in utah love ur videos and positive energy 😀
Keep up the good work 👏 🙌
One of the main reasons I love Matt's Off Road is because he likes being involved, with people! I've noticed with most other car channels once they get like 1-200K subs and starting to get popular their audience starts to get isolated from them. They literally start telling people "Don't come around here," or "Go to the show..." and Matt doesn't do that. The few channels I subscribe to don't have this mentality. You can talk to them, you can interact with them. People that can maintain that no matter how popular they get are good people.
Thank you for the video I have 4 special needs daughters and 2 of them are in the hospital for seizure testing and watching this as I type this and we love watching your videos
I’ve been watching since Matt 200-300 subscribers. Down to earth guy
Great 👍 content guys. Thanks for sharing more information 🤠.
Matt and crew just enjoy helping others. ❤
Mattman to the rescue and recovery with his Mattmobile 😊
Great interview!
