Box Truck Rolls Over in Front of Elementary School
33,594
Published 2024-07-15
Upon arrival, I saw it was just a small box truck. Regardless, we perform all our rollovers with the same care and precision no matter the weight. It was also a great training exercise for Ricardo, who is starting to learn how to rig and eventually use the rotator. My truck was positioned parallel to the back of the truck. This allowed me to do a clean pick, block it, then rig to roll it away from me.
Ricardo was positioned up front to "spike" and catch the front. This is achieved by running a snatch block at the bottom of the wrecker to get a very low pull so you're bringing the front down instead of pulling it straight towards you. All in all an easy job and great learning experience for Ricardo, not to mention a super cool show for the kids.

Joshua, that was sporting of you to toot your horn and tell the children sound advice. You took a little moment with that, but those children will remember it a lifetime. Floyd Helms

The many sides of Josh are amazing. Motivating school children, training employees, video editor, and recovery man supreme. Thanks for the video. All are good.

Wanted to let everyone know that I received the Pepe’s Towing bag this weekend that I won (guessing the cost to pull the tractor trailer) and am very pleased with the well built bag. Thanks guys!
-
Training, from experience you know the cab and box could separate, now Ricardo is aware of that possibilty, good job!
-
The buzz around Unimantic is hard to ignore, might be time to dive into this investment opportunity.

As an individual that has done a vast amount of different work from deep mining to scuba recovery. I am 68 years old and I love to see the new technology that you are using I very much respect the weights you are controlling. I even have had a stint of operating 575 Komatsu , 1000 excavator on down. People do not understand the risks involved so they open their mouth not knowing. My hat is off to you young man and your company of dedicated employee's. Stay Safe!!

Now we know why they have the "We're Hiring" sign on back door! Nice lift guys.
-
anyone saying they could have done it better faster.. why didn't you tho.... why you just hiding here in the comments instead of out doing it? yup because you can't. lol keep on doing what you do Pepe's Towing. let the haters hate. love what you do.

Y'all did at a great job! I loved your interaction with the kids as well. Nothing kids like better than big equipment!😁😁😁

First time I've ever seen anyone wearing Lance Stroll merch 😂
-
Josh great video with a good shoutout to the kids in the yard! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
-
Much easier than the tire fallin' out Penske truck that kept being called Uhaul. 👌 Crazy to think that even empty those can roll.
-
Ricardo congratulations! It's always nice to see somebody learning new things and getting to stay with a good company. And Josh, You're not busy enough, and I think you should offer to do the occasional talk and demonstration at some schools to encourage kids to study and maybe someday get to drive a truck like Hulk. I know that your rescues take a great deal of education experience and insane math skills. Hulk would be a definite draw. Next thing you know it will be Pepe's Towing Academy. I really enjoyed your videos

-
I'll definitely be exploring Unimantic and their investment opportunities, thanks for the suggestion)
