he's lucky it didn't go through the windshield i have seen that happen already i don't use chains to pull out with and if i do i put a shirt or something on the chain and open the hood so atleast the chain is weighted down and if it does break bad and fly towards your truck it hits the inside of the hood instead of your windshield
My father lost the tip of his finger when a chain, just like this one, snapped under tremendous pressure. He worked for Caterpillar as a mechanic fixing diesel engines. I still remember to this day, when I was about four or five years old, visiting him in the hospital with my mother and seeing his hand elevated and wrapped in bandages. When I see a video like this, knowing potentially how dangerous this situation could have been, I shake my head in disbelief at the disregard for personal safety.
what a pity no one died. being that fucking stupid to use chain as a snatch strap means that them fuckwits don't deserve to breath the same air as standard people.
Don't understand why so many idiots are using chains for towing! Puts a lot of stress on tow hooks and frame. If you don't have a winch, use a high quality tow strap or rope!
I guess the sub is lucky that his tow point was as insecure as the sidekicks, or that chain would've left a nice trail across his hood and up to the windshield, lol.
I pulled out a 3/4 ton Dodge with my burb and he had a shiny new chain all hooked up from the guy he was trying to pull out(he got himself stuck).
I told him we're using my ropes or he is not getting pulled out, lol.
this is why i only use a chain to pull people out of snow, easier to get someone unstuck then deep in sand so less change or snapping it, also how was it attached? if it was attached to a ball hitch it can slip off easy, always use a hook attachment
Never "yank" with a chain, tighten er up and pull, dont get 12 meters of slack and drop the hammer.. would have been cool if the chain came back and smashed the chev's windshield
best way to jerk with a chain is to put a tire thats obviously not on the rim in the middle that way when you do jerk it stretchs a little and takes the stress off the chain
now, is this the kind of chain you get for 30 bucks at wal-mart, or the kind of chain that you would feel confident using to hold down a D9 to a semi trailer.
chains work fine, but you have to get the heavy duty stuff.
This should be a lesson to anyone watching...don't use chains to pull another vehicle. These days straps are much safer and stronger, plus they won't kill you if they break like chains can easily do...
i think everyone is with me when i say never ever try to pull a rig out down a hill. you're pulling the tracker into the holes it's made and it's gunna come after your ass when it's out!
The way that chain flew through the air is exactly the reason I will never use a chain. Buy a strap and put some line weights on it so if it does break it falls harmlessly to the ground.
You never jerk a chain or a cable. You can jerk a strap. No matter how good a chain it is, its only as strong as its weakest link. When a chain or cable breaks it has the force to cut through a person.
A strap absorbs a lot of force. If it breaks it won't do as much damage. It would still hurt you, but its not as likely to kill you.
well your wrong and right, [WRONG]:in sand you cant just tighten the rope and pull your car/truck will just dig its self in you have to yank it out with momentum or both cars aren't gonna be going anywhere.[RIGHT] never do that with a chain thats just stupid ropes stretch witch yanks the car out, chains just break.
WOW first off dont yank on it! 2nd dont use a chain! and finally button has a T sound in the middle lol its not bu-en. you guys need to think before u do things so people dont get hurt. ur all very lucky
Hey my friend died of this last year, I live in Kansas. Two of my friends were out mudding, and they got stuck and one guy was pulling the truck out with a car and yanked the chain, it snapped and killed the other kid, it was very tragic, hit him in the head and he was sent to Wichita, but he did not make it unfortunately.
so wait, theres 2 guys in the small car, a guy in the suburban, a guy filming, and a guy runnign after the chain.. that's 5 people.. seriously, that little car weighs nothing 5 people can push it out easily. or just lift it up and carry it around haha.
Idiots......
