Top 5 Towing Fails Caught on Camera
For decades, mechanics have had a secret removal tool that they don’t want you to know about. Need a bumper or axle removed quickly? Need a frame alignment or adjustment? You don’t need a power tool or heavy machinery. You just need rope. I’m kidding when I say that it’s a mechanic’s secret, of course. Despite the inherent usefulness of rope, this video proves that in the wrong hands, rope can pretty much rip a truck in half.
Mud bogged Jeeps are one example of how to royally screw up someone’s ride with rope. Off-roaders have been winched and pulled out of mud so many times, that you’d think its rope placement would be common sense. Not in the first clip. How about the next few clips with some tug-of-war action? Pretty sad when a truck frame folds with the ease of a three-week old banana.
All of these clips are educational, though. So if you are in need of some help and your friend is a bit of a dummy, offer to do the towing for him.
