@@Frank-Kristiansen Can you imagine being the driver? This could have been such a horrible disgusting fatal, it sure looks like it was! To just walk out unscratched from this is a miracle
You rotator guys have it so easy. Your job only requires a solid footing in physics, geometry, leverage, weight and balance, mechanical engineering, physical strength and stamina, knowledge about the physical characteristics of the vehicles and trailers you recover, deep understanding of the capabilities and limits of your equipment, laws and regulations covering your business, and customer service skills. Deep respect.
Absolutely nailed it on the head! The combination of skills these guys have is insane, glad that Josh posts Pepe's recoveries here...especially these incredible ones.
Josh is the man a thinker, able to analyze & command with calm voice, & not second guess himself. His dad needs to pay him more, gift him with his dream car.
Josh showed how great he is at taking the lead as well as demonstrating his knowledge of how to rig a tremendously complicated recovery. This is why this channel is my only recovery channel. I find the others boring in comparison. Thanks for the narrative, the recording, editing and posting. This is very close to the excavator recovery in difficulty. Thanks.
The pucker factor got pretty high a time or two watching this!🫣 Very good job teaching others as you good. Great leadership with respect for those less experienced. Josh, you are a true professional.
Josh me and my mom are big fans..we watch every one you post..wish I could have gone over and met you..@@PepesTowingServiceI don't trust any of the drivers in this area either.
You've done some very technical jobs before, but this one was more detailed and delicate than usual. Small moves had big effects on the angle and attitude of semi. Getting that tractor unjammed without causing drama was an accomplishment. All that and working for an exact position when you set it down. Kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. Excellent skills. Awesome job. Thanks for the video.
After all that training, it's good to see Jeffery stepping up and taking a more active role in the recovery. I hope you're all safe from the raging fires going on right now, the pictures look horrible.
What a great training opportunity for the IE guys that don't do this every day. And the way you were floating Hulk, while the other one was rock solid, was a great way to show how much the trucks can be pushed when you know what you're doing.
Gotta say one of my favorite videos so far and I watched every single one. Hope you, your family, employees and equipment are safe during this wild fires in LA !
Thank you! My confidence makes it look easy I bet but it's also one of my favorites now just because how difficult it was to get it unstuck and up to the overpass at the same time, then back to the lane.
Very technical recovery and nice to see the team effort and everyone learning and pulling together (no pun intended). LOL Excellent execution of a difficult job, as always. Thank you gentleman!
Another Master Class in site evaluation, rigging, teaching and the Money Shot at 49:00 I've seen a few towing and recovery channels, PEPE'S IS THE BEST.. Awesome work all
Wow! Awesome job on a nasty recovery! As a millwright and rigger, I have lifted a lot of heavy stuff. The worry here was just how stuck that nose was and the fear of the tree not staying put. Excellent! It's all anticipating what your load is going to do. Have fun and be safe! Cheers Terry
@sonofbr thing is palm trees are notorious for a ball shaped root structure. In defense of him, this may be a species I'm not familiar with. It worked, and that's what matters. The options wouldn't have been desirable had that tree not been there. Kudos for using a strap on the tree to protect it. The more I watch these guys, the more impressed I am. He's a guy who truly cares about his people and getting the job done right. Terry
There are guru's in many different kinds of business/work. You sir are the guru of rigging and recovery! Really interesting as usual, thanks for sharing as always. Stay safe!!
Looking at that tractor before and after that driver must have been shook with this crash of his vehicle. Love the way this turned into an instructional job for IE. I hope the guys from LA County Fire were able to stick around and get their hands on the controls. Josh this was an awesome video, great editing. I'd say I can't wait for your next one but I always hope that accidents do not happen. Thanks from Denver.
Josh your calm is so high level, love if I may quote "I know my truck" but watching that rig float like it was had my sphincter working in over time. Great work, great job I always look forward to watching your video's. PS I did miss Alex.
In my humble opinion that Palm tree deserves a bravery award! That was a brilliant recovery Josh, we could hear the cogs in your brain ticking over as you planned your attack. Mission accomplished!
Would you believe it I'm still watching the video on RUclips @PepesTowingService ,but again your so professional and teaching other, dad to son always call on Pepes towing and services, and remember the tree guy ,video so funny funny
And you are fast josh you and Alex are like batman and Robin always there to help people plus you have a brilliant staff, love your video's buddy, Niall. @@PepesTowingService
You have one of the most satisfying jobs on the planet. You guys handle situations that seem near to impossible to solve. With every case you grow and learn and you are a good colleague to teach the other guys on tricky ones like this. Big kudos.
Man...From 41:55 to 42:20 you can see Hulk working on those out riggers. Nicely done Josh. Hulk got a full on workout on this one. As always....Thanks for all the time and effort you put in to get these videos out to us. Crazy cool stuff. Hope you guys are safe from the fires out there I know they are not that far from your Boyle Ave location.
Great work as always Josh, The other guys from the other yard, may not see that sort of thing very often, but your educating and instructing "on the Job" will I"m sure stay with them and help them in the future. Hope all at Pepes are safe, across all your locations with the fires going on. Stay safe out there.. from Scotland.
Mad respect for you man, takes a lot of balls to do what you do and you seem very knowledgeable about your profession. Also seems like your fairly young too so props to such a skilled operator like yourself man. Much love and always enjoy the videos.
Hope you all are safe from the fires. Yes, let the firemen play with your big toys. Alex and Dad took refuge at church, missing the excitement. Teamwork wins with Josh as captain.
You should teach a recovery course for semis wrecks since it seems like your company is the go to people for this kind of stuff. Awesome that the fire department wants to use this wreck for some on the job in the field training with you being the instructor.
Thanks, but I'll leave the teaching to the actual instructors and pros. My dad could probably teach a course, but I'm just an overgrown kid with a rotator that happens to know a thing or two and have guts
Yep. You know your truck! I never seen Hulk lean so much but you got it 👍I can’t believe that bridge can hold 2 rotators and a loaded semi with all the weight on 4 outriggers. The PSI would be insane. Awesome
In my 49 years of long haul driving, I have never seen so many crazy ass crashes. As far as I'm concerned, this is caused by Flip Flop drivers, who never drove a car back home, and now desperate companies rush them through driver school. They give them an automatic, and send them out on the highway to k!ll people. In the good old days when I started, 13 and 18 speed manual transmissions would weed out the incompetents. Automatics destroyed the industry.
Exactly 💯. I've been driving over 30 years and I really believe that autos and this auto braking system is doing a lot of damage. Especially in the snow
Josh and Alex do absolutely amazing work. To do this while also creating videos just blows me away. Your passion for the rotators is contagious! It is easy to see the love you have for what you do when you're telling us about Baily Platinum slings, etc. You are both so sincere. Thank you
Hey Bro, that's nicer working with the other company and even nicer letting the fire company learn and have Fun, That's why you're the very Best in the Business what's up Josh, you never know what to expect on a Job. PEACE OUT
Josh you are a master. I especially like how you teach your other guys as you go. They will only get better as you share your technical know how. Great job guys.
Great recovery on a tough situation, Josh. Good to see you all working so well together with the Inland Empire team. Great guys. Stay safe out there. guys.
Hey lol I drove by there right when you guys had up it in the air around 10:30-11am. I was shocked to see that semi flying thru the air!!! Great job kudos!!!
Josh, you handled everything about this job beautifully!!!! EXCELLENT recovery!! Your Inland Empire guys did an outstanding job working with you and following your outstanding direction!! Kudos to you all!! You did a nice job with the video as well. I see next January's calendar shot for sure!! Stay safe my friends!!!!
Excellent work, Josh 👍🏻 Tough job in a tough location, executed safely, quickly and expertly. Great to see all agencies working together and showing both interest and empathy in a crisis.
Awesome job, Josh and IE guiding them along since they don’t do these type of wrecks as frequently as you do and that was a very complex job and having the patience and encouragement. One thing I will say is that your uncle has one up on you. Yeah he’s got nice different colours on his logo but Josh you gotta get your spreader bars done like your uncle’s gotta have that name on there that would look Hella sick. I’m sure it’s not too often that you get to work with IE crew. I’m taking a guess that he fell asleep at the wheel. And after two weeks, I finally got my hoodie, fits so much better.
Thank you! Was fun quarterbacking it all then watching my plan spring to life successfully. And right?? I was going to just jack that spreader bar haha would be cool to get some black and gold ones for us but we use ours a lot so it won't be nice and shiny like his. Nice, finally!
Josh, stick a fork in that Volvo it's done! Fantastic close quarters recovery! That was a true challenge to overcome and you all did it right! Had a laugh though after separating the cab from the overpass you said now comes the tricky part as if the whole job wasn't already uber tricky! Mega kudos to Pepe's!!
I just realized you guys even have the value of bridges and the pillars going through your heads. you guys get into stuff I will never see. Yet another great job
You guys sure know your stuff. Fantastic job. First time watching I'm sooooo glued to the TV my dinner got cold. Stay safe out there. Watching from Trinidad 🇹🇹 and Tobago 🇹🇹
Holy CRAP!!!!! Well this pretty much tops anything I would think of on how to wreck a truck and make it a challenge for you…. Except maybe have truck, completely under an overpass, full 180 all wheels pointed straight up at the sky… that MIGHT be a challenge for you 😂😂. Seriously tho, amazing work. Just like Alex you are a great teacher. Speaking of, I’m sure he was REALLY jealous he missed this one lmao. But all in all I’m glad everyone’s ok. Edit to add: you missed an opportunity to overlay Spyders shirt when you said “I know” like 3x lmao.
Wow. I subscribed today as I do not think I have ever watched this much expertise from so few people engineer and coordinate an extraction so flawlessly. you guys are Pro's.
I appreciate that, but it helps that my workers were eager to learn and happy to help. You ever worked a job with some stubborn that refuses to listen? Horrible lol
I didn't "let" them??? lmao. Going to just copy and paste this under every comment like this: "I didn't forget anything. Watch the video, I said when it's stable. This job was a lot tricker than I thought and at no point was stable. At what part was it safe to hand over the controls? I didn't anticipate the tractor to stay stuck and rubbing up against the bridge which needed my upmost attention so unfortunately this wasn't a good job to train someone that's never held a rotator remote."
You might want to offer them some training time so they get to see what you can do. And, once they get to know what you can do, they will value your input on complicated scenes. So, a win/win.
I think once you had it in the air next to the parapet the FD guys thought best to let you handle it! Having operated a basic recovery vehicle for FD in UK we only received sporadic training due to funding issues. The knowledge was handed down from the guys who had already learned the hard way!
Geoffrey head, back in action! He's a hard-working head. Conveniently placed on the hook to oversee your progress. It's cool that you let the firemen take the controls.
I drive a truck and come to L.A. often, I've seen big truck accidents but NEVER seen start to finish from these kind of accidents. IM IMPRESSED!! SO DAYUMM COOL!!!
I don't recognize your username so sorry if you're a fan, but I'm a VERY sarcastic and humorous guy. This tile was a play on exactly that, we're only 8 days into the year lol
Josh you controlled the scene like a Profesional! You're Golden man ! .. yeah I know !!! All the damage on that truck and trailer and pepe's didn't put not even one more scratch on it. Impressive impressive impressive
When a dentist pulls a tooth he 'extracts' it (with force). When the fire service and paramedics carefully remove an injured and/or trapped patient, the correct term is 'extrication'.
That one must have been one hell of a ride prayers to all of you and the drive ty for letting me share Matt AKA DDP be safe out there My friends and brothers and everybody yuuuuup
@@PepesTowingService Makes me laugh everytime the tree man appears. I appreciate how your treat everyone on site, teaching, encouraging and keeping every one safe, while having fun and getting the job done!

What is going on with these insane crashes so far in 2025?
This one is insane, it's like here in norway during the winter. good luck great job.
impatient drivers, distracted truckers, road rage take your pick!
Too many undertrained unqualified drivers for sure in the industry plus other factors.
@@Frank-Kristiansen Can you imagine being the driver? This could have been such a horrible disgusting fatal, it sure looks like it was! To just walk out unscratched from this is a miracle
That was insane you commanded that scene like a professional .

Some guys get all the luck, eh? Haha cool comment, enjoyed reading that!
Unbelievable recovery, oh and by the way, Jeffrey needs a shower brother, 😂, your knowledge is unfathomable and amazing professionalism
Aight? Easy easy!😆😆
Not to mention a solid knowledge of arborist work, to satisfy all the tree huggers!
Absolutely nailed it on the head! The combination of skills these guys have is insane, glad that Josh posts Pepe's recoveries here...especially these incredible ones.
Josh is a master at his craft. There's nobody better in all of California.
Jeffery is the real MVP here.

I find the others boring in comparison. Thanks for the narrative, the recording, editing and posting. This is very close to the excavator recovery in difficulty. Thanks.
Glad you enjoy the channel. The excavator recovery was for sure more difficult in my opinion. But thanks again for the kind words and being a fan!

Checkout Highway thru hell. There’s lots of videos on RUclips. They do stuff similar to this but in the frozen north of Canada.
Flip-flop mafia had me cracking up 🤣
I got that from the comments all over my other videos lol. Every time there is a driver with flip flops people go nuts
@@PepesTowingService The flip flops were strong in that mega alternator on the highway video. 😂

Another driver walks away from a bad wreck. Great job Josh and the other two crews from Pepes towing.
If you just saw these pictures without my video, you would never guess the driver was perfectly fine. Crazy!
Gotta say one of my favorite videos so far and I watched every single one. Hope you, your family, employees and equipment are safe during this wild fires in LA !

Thanks! I try to bring the best, most crazy and fun (recovery wise) videos to you guys. No boring jobs here.
What an absolutely amazing extraction! Had I not seen that happen with my own eyes, I would not have believed it!
I'm sure if I didn't show the driver perfectly fine, no one would believe me this wasn't a fatal or super critical injury.
Mr Josh Text book recovery. Thanks for sharing and stay safe.
Thank you sir, happy new year to you and your team!
I drive a truck and come to L.A. often, I've seen big truck accidents but NEVER seen start to finish from these kind of accidents. IM IMPRESSED!! SO DAYUMM COOL!!!
Good Afternoon Josh & Alex, I know ya, lol have Big Flipper & Hulk on the job
Good afternoon!
This is the best towing recovery channel 🙌 Pepe is the goat 🐐 🙌 👏 👌
Most horrific crash in the 8 days this year has been going lol. Not saying a lot, but the crash was legit. Great job on the recovery as always
I don't recognize your username so sorry if you're a fan, but I'm a VERY sarcastic and humorous guy. This tile was a play on exactly that, we're only 8 days into the year lol
Josh you controlled the scene like a Profesional!
You're Golden man ! .. yeah I know !!!
All the damage on that truck and trailer and pepe's didn't put not even one more scratch on it. Impressive impressive impressive
I stress that on every job, it's not always possible but doing these jobs as quickly as possible with no further damage is what keeps us at the top.
@@PepesTowingService you guys are the best and well-deserved.... Yeah I know
Clean edits Josh keep up the awesome work you and Alex do 😄👍
Thank you, I really mean it considering I RUSHED this video!
Amazing recovery!! I hope all is well with the crazy fires and I'm sure you'll be busy for weeks digging thru the mess when it's over. Stay safe!!
Great and skillful job Josh, and sharing your knowledge with others is a very humble person.👍👍👍
Josh that was Entertaining, you are a professional.

Outstanding job, Josh!
Kudos to Inland Empire, et al. and under your professional leadership, you guys did a fantastic job.

The damage on that tractor will,....(Say It With Me!!) Buff Right OUT!!!! LOL
Those are some badass trucks! Wow.
I’ve watched many many of your recoveries, I’d have tat this was the best!!!! Other company guys great too !!!!!! Enjoyed
When a dentist pulls a tooth he 'extracts' it (with force). When the fire service and paramedics carefully remove an injured and/or trapped patient, the correct term is 'extrication'.
Well color me green, today I learned. Thanks!
That was an excellent recovery...With the right equipment and operators it shows what can be done...Well done Josh and guys
