[SuperPacman66]

Man Toys!! :)

[GO82100]

Operator koparki, mistrzostwo świata!!!

[dirtTdude]

moral of the story; 345CL excavators are fucking hard core bad ass machines... its a tank with a massive sonofabitch. i bet it can excavate like a maniac on fire.

[USAWoody]

funny place to park a dozer

[keter1234]

I notice there are not police involved. Good !

[adrianomrt]

good operator!!! Good video!!! Bom video!! Bom operador!!!!

[03vicBlack]

I personally think they rehearsed this many o times.

[marcin86221]

perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tobyj4575]

i like how the second guy was drug out the entire time. the tracks barely moved on his

[nerfterritory67]

was the 650 flooded?

[DieselCrawler86]

Never send a Deere to do a CATS job.

[Direwolf56]

Why do bulldozer operators always push their luck?

[Direwolf56]

@Direwolf56 oh, didn't read the description, sorry

[astro1218]

seems like a big chain would have been the an easyer option . dont no how was on the first dozers seals

[theekrusher]

Nice work..........hard to believe they took such a risk on that slope....looks like trouble before they started.

[AlexR2648]

20 people are dozer operators.

[kaboooodle]

Oh Deere...

[TheScreamingFetus]

you boys dont forget to clean those tracks haha

[giannifranco]

GOT MUD? nice

[DEVASTATOR478]

great !!!

[Gillie021]

CAN YOU SWIM.. ya.. GOOD

[mrdriver511]

CAT POWER!!

[luxstar4life]

@mrdriver511 DOG POWER!!

[steveo2626]

Look at td25g making drainage and you will saw what dozer can do and it's not 345 who pull out me of this mud!!! it's dozer!!!

[MrDuggzz]

someone gonna enjoy explaining what happened there

[ianmacattackable]

can ya swim!

[2012ANONYMOUSA]

I`ma Cat man skiblidiblidoobop!

[pdoug54]

Brings back alot of memories...........all bad!

[mrtorino351]

Mmmm fair enough...but wouldn't it take 2 secs with the dozer to push any mud off the road?

[mrtorino351]

Why not pull him straight onto the road!!!

[dirtripper1]

@mrtorino351 They don't want to shovel mud!

[finpainter1]

@mrtorino351 looks like the dozers would break the edge of pavement.

[somminlikeapimp]

daddy gota come rescue the 2 sons lol

[smtoke]

hes been trailed across the bank!! excavator driver pull him up!!!!

[shrimper2121]

@smtoke no shit sherlock lol

[smtoke]

@shrimper2121 how did you know my name? :-)

[shrimper2121]

@smtoke aha...tis because i myself am dick tracy...the well known super slueth....at your service.

[irelandbloke]

Right in front of Hulcher, awesome

[SuperRobbie1976]

nothing SINKS LIKE A DEER.

[Jethro627]

thats how cat does it

[PhilosopherFigwig]

[kingibad]

[ColeFried81]

That 345 CL is fucking wicked badass

[w1ldyovvnz]

What were they doing in the canal? Did they leave them over a holiday and they got a dumping of rain?

[MrMerlo1990]

yea good operator

[lilamma1]

tractors like to play in the mud toooo.....

[swampboy350]

i bet someone lost their jobs

[SILVERAD0MAN]

Hmmm looks like 2 rookie cat operators what are they like cattle,when one slides in the other one follows

[bajdoos]

czopy pchaja sie w błoto a pozniej zdziwieni ze ulgneli tępe jełopy

[MultiCzarek123]

@bajdoos jak zwykle polski inteligentny komentarz

[scoobydrewbie]

That's why I don't leave the house without my 345CL. Ever.

[irelandbloke]

@scoobydrewbie LOL :-)

[Hendrix92TheUniverse]

nothing runs like a Deere, and nothing smells like a john.

[thomasj4j]

They don't seem to be angry my boss would be PISSED!!!

[joinVWclubs]

good job of the digger!!

[forzaefese]

buena maniobra me gusta



[NewbBOSS]

now thats suck

[gabigowriel]

I love BIG tracked vehicles!

The nicest one would be Sisu NA 110 aka Nasu (Piggy);

[MrElmucho]

[Tristan729]

Cat saving a deere! Just like a Ford saving a chevy!

[dbsouza1]

Good thing the 345 driver was skilled. He saved the day!

[jakeschwab88]

You can't finish grade in mud. No wonder you people were stuck!!!!

[xxHarveyMoonxx]

its not often we get to see a good recovery video, Thanks

[pukaman2000]

Grandpa in that excavator knows his machine. Quick and efficient. Good job!

[MrIronhide1234]

How did they get in there?

[onceANexile]

GOOD OPERATOR...

[MegaMohsen2011]

dad helps baby

[rootbeerfan6]

I hope that they warmed up the pressure washer or budgeted a lot of quarters at the car wash.

[obiehax]

looks like they deliberately put in there for a y-tube video

[24093100]

Птенцы желторотики и заботливая мама

[ellobofelipe]

Certainly, no the way to do it. But they did it. Not the smartest operators or maybe they did not have the strings to pull the machines out.

[SpankDeath]

@ellobofelipe lol called ingenuity, just because you dont have the right equipment for something doesnt mean say "fuck we cant do it even though that 350CL would work just fine for it!!!!shut down the roadway!!!"

[ellobofelipe]

@SpankDeath Hey, the operators did what they did! The machines are out, just an experience for others to see and learn. We had our troubles in my company, you do what you have to do to finish the job on schedule, never leaving safety on the blind spot! Good video!

[root8722]

ostre!!!

[delevero2]

VERY bad way to pull a doser free..... Why ????

The reason is that the bulldozers front is only designed to PUSH not pull... there is a huge risk of ripping off the front or bending something.

But good to save the dozers but extremly risky, it could easy have cost more than 10.000usd each each dozer to fix the dozers afterwards.

[AquaticCastle]

@delevero2 Actually they can pull with a dozer. 

[dickhickerson]

useing chains would be the last option consitering there on a high way and you dont tow things with chains.

[rasssse92]

wtf are u doing down there? --- "just hanging around with my bud" lol

[Lehtosenkanava]

Well, I would not give them A+ for this job. Surely the operator of the excavator did his job smoothly, but not in the right way. You cant tell by this video if the blades of the dozers got damaged or not. You can only tell that it seems they still have them. I would have chained those two lil dosers and pulled them out of that shit. You know, that enormous pulling force of the excavator and that steep slope with all that mud is something those dozers are not desingned for.

[dickhickerson]

@Lehtosenkanava the blade is made to have all the weight of the dozer pushing un it therefore it can handle the weight of the dozer pulling on it. sure water is harfull but only if it gets in the engine which by the looks it didn't. that track hoe dosnt have the hydrolic pressure to harm the blade of a dozer.

[MultiAtomsmasher]

All operators are a notch above plant life in this video. Dumb and Dumber with Stupid along, to destroy someone else's equipment. Boy, when it ain't yours....

I'll bet a full set of teeth (human) is optional on that job.

[dickhickerson]

@MultiAtomsmasher big fucking deal, so they got a little wet. not like they had anyother option. pretty easy to act smart when the only equiptment youve ever run is a car.

[cumminsallthaway]

Swag

[MrOne2watch]

nothing runs like a deere ! "runs" NOT floats ! LOL

[turtlemann14]

are those dozers or garden tractors with blades? could have just about lifted it right out.

[MrG4m4]

i felt happy they got out

[oleand14]

OH look, he is stuck in the mud ! lets take my doser and do the same ! it looks fun ! :D

[SthealthRaider]

zeker snijder in de bulls!!!! hihihihihihih die rijen alles vast en zuipen alles af!!!! amateurs

[TheBigdog9309]

Perfect example why you buy Cat Dozers adn put reall operators in them , this would have never happened

[douro20]

The 345CL is a very powerful excavator...345 refers to the shaft horsepower output of the engine.

[imthedude]

Big bruda helped them out :P

[imchris5000]

I wouldn't have these clowns work my equipment like that. the 10 minutes to set up some chains will end up saving large amounts of money when you dont destroy everything.

[billblackhawk51]

@imchris5000 how was that hurting the equipment what they did wasn't harmful at all

[imchris5000]

@billblackhawk51 no not this time but doing things like that is how you end up breaking things.

[IHcubcadet]

Cool video. Wow look at the water pouring out of those deers.. .

[lizardfirefighter110]

Cool!

[deltaweldman]

I'm coming little buddy...

[109ejg]

I liked it. Thanks

[loveunderlaw]

Amazing! Now that's what I call "MUD"!

[nezapamatovatelne]

It looks like an adult is looking after its babies. :)

[boundaryzero]

THANKS FOR THE GOOD VIDEO !! I was surprised that blade of the dozers could handle that much sideways load and pulling force. I thought they were meant to push only.

[070ruben]

Esto le da un nuevo sentido a la frase " DAR UNA MANO.."

[lukas123632]

boring

[eircamae86]

Shouldnt have needed dozers, a good excavator driver should have batterd it back sufficiently

[eclipser2004]

Bank on the side of that highway seem very steep, unless it's not all finished yet.

[majidk2]

i wonder if pulling on the tractors damages them somehow.

[Glockenator]

@majidk2 If you're not careful it would damage the dozers. That guy knows how to operate an excavator, though. Look how careful and gentle he is with the boom on that CAT. He could perform surgery with that thing.

[janusvananus]

it seems somebody's mom didn't learn him to back down when beat

[thefamousDrFeelgood]

nothing sinks like a deere :D

[saknk1]

"hey Gerry i think im stuck in the mud " are you sure ? let me see >>> shit shit now im stuck too !!

[juvmol]

can you swim?? LOL!! @ 4:28 OMG! LOL!

[VideoEffectsPlus]

@juvmol Yes, but not wearing a dozer!

[MrSunrise1961]

Good teamwork, and props to the guy in the trackhoe - I was gritting my teeth, waiting for him to get out of sync and trash the blade hydraulics, but he kept it together. I assume the finish grading ended up waiting for the local dry season?

[justinmoss101]

I love how the second dozer was not even trying. The Cat just drug it out

[Kflash3782]

Glad you knew to record and upload this! The excavator is a purchase I would make if I hit the lottery.

[BreathDoctor]

Piss-poor road design when you have NO shoulders for people to pull over on. Are the Road Engineers retarded there? Looks like it.

[bigballar99]

@mynameisray Its a joke my unintelligent friend. Thank you for your concern.

[351cleavland]

@mynameisray Do you believe that most people treat you with anger?

[WTCHME]

@mynameisray Stuck would have described the situation properly, had they not been sinking. 

[theguy5550]

@mynameisray really? your freaking out that much over something like that? wow. thats pretty pathetic.

[bimernut]

@theguy5550 Only if you don't care about communicating. If you put stuck in quotes you suggest that they were not really stuck. That does not seem to be the case.

[sparkygl0s]

@mynameisray

Unecessary quotes are far preferable to enecessary expletives.

[mrbrechtefeld]

And thats how you dig a ditch folks lol

[redtuss0ck]

Did you have any issues with water in Final Drives at all? ... Just wondering ... bit like the the little yellow digger story eh.

[1D5dozer]

the guys saying "how hard it is on the front end" are the same type of guys I see pry on a rock or stump for 30 minutes. lol

Fact is the guys that "never have problems" are the same guys that don't do anything.

Sometimes you gotta get the job done.

[mcpheonixx]

Technique not withstanding, when a dozer gets stuck, it's freakin stuck. There's no " Oh I'm just a bit stuck " No buddy, your dead in the water LOL

[bestamerica]

'

what kind of videocamera use this

[sequoyah59]

I would not want anyone pulling my dozers that way. It may be faster but the risk of tearing something up, like the blade, sheet metal, a radiator etc. is just too high. It isn't the pull from the trackhoe it is the torque it puts on the blade at odd angles. I slid a D-6 off in the river working a side slope that way. Told the boss it wasn't a good idea to work parallel. Angles are better.

[surrynet]

@sequoyah59 Your dozers? Told the boss?, sounds like the dozers you are talking about is his,lol

[ibbe1976]

Oh deere...

[americandragline]

2 dozers where they shouln't be, and  345 tracking down a public road to save tow truck fees. Hope the state inspector was looking the other way.

[BORDERTRASH01]

@americandragline The excavator has triple bar grousers. They are street legal, just don't smash the reflectors. :)

[AaronH1345]

wow, do they realize how hard that is on the front end of those machines? go get a chain.

[pcfd20]

I would hate to be the foreman and pull up to this, but crap happens. good video.

[TheMit520]

@19thSFGA Whats that stand for ? Stupid Fucking Gay Ass ? well at least your the 19th and not the 1st... oh yea BTW (that stands for by the way! SFGA) GO FUCK YOUR SELF ! you had no reason to call me an Asshole.. You DICKHEAD

[19thSFGA]

Nwwd to put them motherfuckers back on a shovel !

[SubvenioArguo]

I was surprised nothing got broken. Those Deere dozers are tough.

[woog74]

"Can ya swim?, I said can you swim?"

[CellisJacob]

@woog74 is it supposed to be funny?

[jgrandison2004]

that guy in the second one needs to learn how to run that machine..... he didn't even have the tracks going while the loader was pulling him out... no help there... *sigh*

[ruuman]

that was really good, well done guys!!

[hundiraisk]

Excavator is like big brother coming to rescue.

He should've gave pat on a back one they were out, like "there, there buddy, it's gonna be ok.".

[13kpologt]

verry well done. the things you nead to do to get the job done.

[brianstacync]

when ya see these dirty bastards at the Exxon getting a hot dog and you white color yuppies look down at them through your nose...just remember the skill it takes to operate this equipment and build your roads and highways that you drive your BMW's on. good work fellas!

[d1duck]

4:31 Can you swim? :D

[SmackintoshSr]

Track hoe dude knows his stuff - pretty gentle touch considering.

[tsanne25]

ask me there were some smart moves there first the guy on the 750 angeled his blade all the way out smart not to forse the hydros to bypass an pros to the guy on the ex nise to see a operator an not a driver

[Catdaddy320]

That 345 scared the shit out of the 750, It had diareha when it came out !!!

SHIT ! Hapenes.

[Mr10inchnail]

CAT POWER !!!!!!

[wolfclaw223]

@waagii what is a doozer!

[grog768]

can you swim? lmao

[9b8]

oh wow, the second dozer op is even worse! Is the fucking track broken!?!?!!? Get that dipshit out of that dozer! Might as well shut the dozer off, save the fuel, and pull the bitch out with dead tracks. My gosh! I remember being only 16 years old and running a rented excavator, digging a pond out. It settled down up to the axles in muck due to the weight and vibrations from digging, on a 30 degree slope much like this. It wouldn't walk out on its own. It also wouldn't pull itself out...

[9b8]

@9b8 ...but with a little manipulation and finesse, behold, I was able to get it out by working both the tracks and the bucket, once I found the right angles (float to pull ratio). I was an amatuer. I've also operated multiple dozers, in blade and skid loader form. Both of these dozer operators are in my humblest opinion machinery and mechanics morons. But hey, I'm observing through the lens of a YT vid, so who knows the real circumstances. By the track behavior alone, I call BS to both.

[9b8]

I could be wrong, but the first dozer operator seemed to be a numbskull. When the excavator was trying to get him on back on slope, he wasn't working with the excavator driver at all, and just spinning the tracks. Seems to me if he would have pivoted the right track upgrade while the excavator was pulling, he would have been out minutes earlier. But hey, I could be wrong. It is what I would have done, though.

[SuptaTT]

Nice video!

[hotdog2020]

Wow! some skill right there. Thanks for this, that second one was really buried

[1245christine]

I'm curious as to why the owner would have his employees working in suck a risky situation to begin with. Why wasn't the water pumped out and the area allowed to dry up a bit before letting the heavy equipment work in such a situation. I work at a limestone quarry where we run D10 dozers, 994 CAT front end loaders etc. and watching this I think the manager/business owner obviously does NOT care about the safety of his/her workers!!!!!

[ohyea69]

@1245christine can i ask what u do for a living... i run heavy equipment and conditions like these make the days interesting.... and when ur trying to make money it isnt practical to pump out water when there was only a slight chance of going in... does ur boss wipe your a** for you because theres a chance u might leave some tp on your shoe?

[Watsupwiya]

Bloke in big "Cat" "shut up, listen, follow my lead or I'll put this bucket through your cab"

[Watsupwiya]

When you've got a couple of small Deere issues, bring in the big "Cat"

[ashley2771]

Rather ironic that this happened across the road from a Hulcher office, which specializes in rerailing and rescuing derailed trains...

[chefsu11715]

Muckety muck! Good job to the excavator operator!

[UsedMissiles]

That was some soup right there! I guess you couldn't do anything to the FL until the canal dried up.

[greatkeyboardwarrior]

excavator driver later walks into the pub with a big woody and yells out WELL YOU WONT BELIEVE WHAT I DID TODAY!!!!!!!!!

[Watsupwiya]

@greatkeyboardwarrior

If all his mates had smart phones, they'd all say, "Oh yer, just watched it on Youtube, nice bit of bucket work, what y'on with tomorrow"

[big420head]

k guy standing there is a big no no around here

[cgspeeddemon1]

@big420head he was flagging traffic (albiet poorly), around here they are required to be there by state law
