Chain breaks pulling out stuck lifted Chevy

[BIGORANGEHUNTER]

Couple words ! " TOW STRAP " Some are rated higher in strength than chains and if it breaks you might get rope burn or a welt chain breaks you die.

Natural selection in progress.

Ever seen a half-ton pickup unstuck a burried RV with a toy hauler on it. LOL good luck doing that with chains. Nothing beats a tractor or tugboat recovery strap/rope.

[Mr14sergio14]

you need to fucking stop saying oh my f****** god but nice truck though

[rideBPbmx]

DOnt stand next to fucking chains when your doin somehinlike this!

[l337pwnage]

well, at least you kinda of knew what was gonna happen. I guess if the driver wants to risk his life, thats his business. A jacket or blanket on in would have helped, but chains are so heavy that I don't know how much it difference it would have made.

[headshothoncho1]

atleast it was a chevy...

[GeauxHunting]

And that's why we use straps! Glad no one got hurt...

[evhvariac2]

Always an idiot laughing in the background when something like this happens.

[992bm]

holy shit

[ScRoTe1992]

buy a jeep.......... LOLZ

[elmer6400]

dumb fuck must be a space cadet

[Rorabough]

and thats why you dont use chains... shit breaks. get a nice fire hose or somethin nylon. just from experience haha

[c141bstarlifter]

you clowns are laughing and you could have killed someone or yourself

[CarlosCoy135]

always use a strap or rope, a chain breaking can do some serious damage and could definitely kill somebody

[flecur08]

@CarlosCoy135 tell me about it. My dad was working constrution and they were moving a hunk of concrete when the chain snapped and hit a guy in the face. Broke his cheek bone and his eye popped out of his socked. They took some napkins and shoved his eye back in his head and taped it in til he got to the hospital. Chains are dangerous.

[milehighmudduck]

You guys are lucky. I hope no one got hurt and you learned a lesson in yanking with chains. DON"T DO IT!!!

[aslugger07]

gotta be smarter then this people...

[KWIGGS99]

Nice tuck man That would suck if that were you. But im waiting to get my truck and im lifting it then im goign mudding !

[Spywell]

Stupid ass city people, you NEVER fucking stand near a chain like that. I have broke so many chains that are much higher rated and the dents all over my tailgate prove it.

You should use a really thick rope made to pull tractors.

I keep carpet in my truck to put over chains.

You are all lucky nobody was KILLED!

Seriously

Go get a Winch and read the warnings!

[Dreeeyer]

lol you try to teach them a lesson, yet your the one using a chain.. you make me laugh bud. Get a nylon strap.

[Spywell]

"You should use a really thick rope made to pull tractors."

"I keep carpet in my truck to put over chains."

Your own ignorance is a source of greater amusement.

[Dreeeyer]

"I have broke so many chains that are much higher rated"

My Ignorance eh?

[Spywell]

Apparently you don't understand. Chains, like winches can snap and become extremely dangerous.

I normally use a 2 1'2 inch nylon tow strap to pull out tractors and trucks.

The point is yes its safer to use ropes, but if you are to use a winch or chains then you need to use them safely.

You should always put carpet, or a blanket over the winch or chains to keep them from coming up high enough to go through the rear window and kill the driver.

@Spywell a guy just died about a week ago out here where I live in WV from a winch snapping. I like to use canvas tow straps instead, but if you just run it around something and pull it back through the loop on the end, then you better pray it don't get wet, b/c if it does, u will never get it off. I carry a couple clevises with me, but I've still had to cut a couple off when I couldnt find em

[Spywell]

@daBlade80 Winches can break as well, I havn't broken any winch line yet and there are many scenarios where the winch is the only tool capable of getting you out. Thing is, people just need to be smart about this stuff. I rode up on some guys winching a new ford out and they let me know they were winching before I came into the area. It surprised me because they were dumb enough to go into the meanest mud hole on the trail with a 4 door 4x4 F150 with low profile street tires lol morons.

[needlenitz18]

@Spywell got a sled stuck in the ice on the shore. ski was under the ice and other on top. Strap snapped and dented the tailgate almost in half. Shit is too dangerous

[spudd5005]

thats why thy make snatch straps.thill hate to see that happen to anybody.

[f150lariat02]

well atleast it wasn't your truck. But i still feel bad for the other guy. Nice truck man.

[JosiahM1970]

thank you for the compliment. I don't think I mentioned but it broke both front and back windshields.
