00:05This time on Highway Through Hell, a loaded lumber wreck has auto grappling a messy
00:20manure tanker takes a turn for Merv and a mystery man
00:29We've had a guy in front of the gate all day long at Jamie's door. Hello
00:37How are the roads up there? In British Columbia Central Interior
00:44East of Quesnel
00:47You never know what you're going to find on this road, eh?
00:51Runs Highway 26, also known as the Barkerville Highway
00:57Highway 26 is the road to Barkerville
00:59It's one of the biggest historical sites in B.C. and a lot of loggings out there
01:05It's also notorious for animal encounters
01:09There's a fair bit of moose and deer
01:12Deer on the road
01:14So you just try to pay attention
01:18Watch out for the moose
01:21Seventy-five kilometers down the highway
01:32That's the worst wreck I've seen
01:34A local resident was first on scene
01:37When I saw the logging truck
01:41The driver was standing there on the highway
01:45And I was just thankful that he was standing
01:52Coming in from Quesnel
01:54A 50-ton auto heavy wrecker
01:57A logging truck crashed
01:59And owner-operator, Rob Barber
02:02Where the truck crashes is kind of a caribou habitat
02:06Lots crossed right there
02:07There's the truck
02:1130 feet below the road
02:14A Super B train
02:16Lies buried under its load of logs
02:20You actually can't see the truck
02:22From all the trees that are on top of it
02:25It's a bit of a mess
02:26It's not so nice anymore
02:28It'd be quite the ball
02:29Because that was bending in there pretty good
02:53What happened there?
02:56On Highway 26
03:02There's the truck
03:04Rob faces a fully loaded Super B
03:07Buried in logs
03:11He just pulled all the wood off
03:12So we can find the truck
03:14To dig out the wreck
03:16And salvage the load
03:18Rob's brought out
03:19A button-top loader
03:22With that grapple
03:23He can get four or five sticks at a time
03:25Just way faster
03:30Used in the logging industry
03:32Log loaders are equipped
03:35With a special button-top grapple
03:37To easily transfer fallen trees
03:44Helping to secure the transferred load
03:47Is the driver of the wrecked truck
03:49Christopher Webster
03:51Come around the corner
03:53And there was a moose
03:55So I moved over kind of hard
03:58I got into the soft stuff
04:00And it got pretty bad
04:02Happy I'm alive
04:08Last night
04:09With limited visibility
04:10To avoid hitting a moose
04:13The fully loaded Super B
04:15Swerved
04:18Plowing through the trees
04:19Before stopping in the ditch
04:25From the amount of damage
04:26To the truck
04:27And the trees
04:27He took out
04:28He was very lucky
04:29That he walked away from that
04:30Rob's concern
04:31Is understandable
04:32Hey, how come Bob?
04:34Because Christopher
04:35Is also his nephew
04:38Once we're done loading
04:39I kind of want to stay
04:41For the rest
04:41Yeah, then I'll get up
04:43Into there
04:43Yeah, yeah
04:43Christopher
04:44Was my oldest sister's boy
04:46He didn't get hurt
04:47So it's kind of nice
04:48To be out here helping him
04:50Joining the family reunion
04:52Paul's going to come out
04:54Another of Rob's nephews
04:56And Chris' cousin
04:57Paul Langlois
04:59It is fun to have
05:01Your cousin out there
05:02Your uncle
05:02It's a big family thing
05:06And it's rare
05:07It doesn't happen all the time
05:08How far they got on this?
05:10You got one bunk done
05:11One bunk done?
05:13Ooh, icy
05:14Yeah, that's right
05:15Last winter
05:17Get hooked up to it
05:18Get ready
05:18Paul returned
05:20After some time away
05:22To team up
05:23With his uncle Rob
05:24And younger brother Kyle
05:26Paul!
05:27I'm happy
05:28That I can
05:29Be back with the family
05:31Working again
05:31Right on, buddy
05:34He's done
05:36Two hours
05:37Since the button top loader
05:38Got to work
05:39Just park on the other side
05:41Of all our trucks
05:42Okay
05:43Enough logs are cleared
05:46Now that the logs are all loaded
05:47Christopher
05:48Get out of the way
05:49To finally see the wreck
05:51We're gonna
05:53Disconnect the trailer
05:54And use the button top
05:56Probably we'll just pick the trailer up
05:57And put it on the road
05:58And then we'll
06:00Get a better look at
06:01What's left of that truck
06:02Team Auto
06:04Move in
06:05What a mess
06:06So holy moly
06:08To assess the damage
06:10Knowing it's my cousin's vehicle
06:12It does play a different part
06:14It's more of a personal level now
06:17That is family
06:18To remove the trailer
06:21Well, I don't know
06:22Well, I don't know if there's tension there
06:23Rob enlists the help
06:24Of the button top operator
06:26Ty Homan
06:29Probably just give that a pop
06:30And I think it'll come off
06:31Okay
06:32Can you drag it?
06:33Yeah, I'll spin it right up here
06:35We'll just use the button top
06:36To kind of drag the trailer up on the road
06:38Because they're ideal for this sort of stuff
06:41The log loader's heavy-duty jaws
06:47And swinging arm
06:51Give Rob a unique advantage on this recovery
06:59That was nice
07:01Yeah
07:03Yeah, there you go
07:08Let's see
07:08Airlines
07:11A careful inspection
07:12This is amazing
07:14Oh, they're both good
07:15Yeah
07:18Reveals the trailer's airlines
07:20Were miraculously spared
07:22In the crash
07:23All the airlines are in good shape
07:25So we can just put air to it
07:26And haul it away
07:28Rob's gonna hook on
07:29Yeah, he'll get it out of the way
07:31We're on a two-lane road
07:33It gets tight
07:36Rob will clear the trailer
07:38So I have to go
07:3930 or 40 kilometers
07:40To find a good pull-out
07:42I can stash it
07:43Rolling
07:43Before they take on
07:45I think you're good
07:47The rest of the rest
07:48You're gonna have quite a time
07:49Getting him out of there
07:51Okay, thank you
08:06How's the road looking?
08:08680 kilometers south
08:10All traffic
08:12In the Fraser Valley
08:14Yep
08:15Definitely crawling
08:16Highway 1's afternoon rush hour
08:20Is in full effect
08:22It's bumper to bumper
08:26Entering the fray
08:27We've got aggressive
08:28Toine record here
08:29An aggressive rotator
08:31We're gonna head out to
08:33Matt's
08:33We've got a
08:34And operator
08:36Chris Merman
08:37Got a customer called us
08:39For this area in particular
08:41It's one of the main thrill fares
08:43And now this is just
08:45High-volume traffic
08:46On this narrow little road
08:48Sitting shotgun today
08:50Bringing little Jaden
08:52It's gonna be my rigger
08:53And we're driving Bertha
08:55Fellow heavy operator
08:57Jaden Dick
08:58I really enjoy working with Merv
09:00He's always willing to help
09:02And teach me
09:03So I can get the job done
09:05But just off the highway
09:06On an alternate commuting route
09:10Holy crap
09:15A tractor hauling manure
09:18Blocking everything
09:19Lies upside down
09:21Closing the road
09:24Emergency clues
09:25They're on scene now, yeah
09:27Oh my god
09:31Got too close to the edge
09:33And he hit that driveway
09:34You see this tractor
09:36Way up in the air
09:37And the manure wagon
09:38Underneath it
09:38To do complete upside down
09:40That's amazing
09:42It's pretty confusing
09:43To look at for sure
09:44Come on buddy
09:46Also on scene
09:47Is the owner of the tractor
09:51Give me some torque
09:52Detention on this
09:53Yeah
09:53That's what I'm thinking
09:54Right now
09:55Is how do we alleviate
09:56Your tension problem
09:58The hitch for the tractor
10:00Managed to stay all complete
10:01And just turned the coupler
10:02Right upside down
10:04The forces that are on this hitch
10:06Now are going to be
10:07Interesting
10:08To be able to get it all
10:09Uncoupled and separated
10:11Probably have to hold her up
10:12By them pins
10:13We'll grab it
10:13Two spots
10:14Support it
10:15Right
10:16Knock the pin out
10:17I just can't reach over
10:18Can you
10:20I won't have as good
10:21Of control over it
10:22Alright
10:22That's fine
10:22I'll come back
10:23On this side
10:24Yeah yeah
10:24There's no other way around
10:27Staying on this side
10:27Of the wreck
10:28Is a little bit more
10:29Cumbersome
10:29Just the angles
10:30And everything
10:30To work with the rotator
10:33But with the wreck
10:34Completely blocking the road
10:37Repositioning the rotator
10:39To the opposite side
10:41Will take time
10:43This is the main thoroughfare
10:45To get from the west side
10:46Of Abbotsford
10:47To the east side
10:47So getting the road back open
10:49Is a big priority
10:51Totally block that side
10:56Eight hours north
10:57Rob's going to be a while
10:59On the Barkerville highway
11:01Because once he's hooked up
11:03No problem
11:04With no wrecker on sight
11:06Just time
11:07Yeah
11:09Cousins Paul and Chris
11:10Are anxious to get started
11:12With the tractor
11:13Rob's taking the trailer
11:1535 kilometers
11:16To a big enough lot
11:18For us to store the trailer
11:20That's going to take time
11:21If we can grab onto the end
11:23Pull
11:24Once you've got the way
11:26To the front end
11:27We can just place it
11:27Right on the road
11:28Okay
11:30I decided that
11:31I'm going to jump in
11:32And get this job done
11:33As soon as possible
11:36You want to go middle?
11:38Yeah, right there
11:40The challenge on this truck
11:42Is trying to get it
11:43Out of the trees
11:45Using a chain
11:46To the frame
11:47All right
11:48Ty starts lifting
11:51With the button
11:52With the button top loader
11:53See if she'll do her
11:58What a mess, man
11:59Holy moly
12:01A big job like this
12:04We don't know the challenges
12:05The loader's going to have
12:07The tractor is almost clear
12:09Of the mess of trees
12:11But the loader
12:12Kind of perched
12:14Kind of perched precariously
12:15Here on the bank
12:16With snow underneath me
12:17Is on unstable ground
12:20Frickin' heavy
12:22I can only lift so hard
12:24Or I'll end up
12:25Tipping on top of it
12:26We're maxing out
12:32Off highway 26
12:35A 25,000 pound tractor
12:40Come on
12:42As big iron
12:43Struggling
12:44Trying to lift as much as I can
12:47Without teetering myself
12:48Off the bank here
12:51Hours earlier
12:52The fully loaded super beam
12:55Swerved to avoid hitting a moose
12:58And plowed into the ditch
13:02Now the tug of war
13:05No, I can't swing it
13:06Proves too much
13:08For the button top loader
13:10There's so much
13:11Broke off
13:12And sticking down
13:13Into all that brush
13:14That I can't drag it
13:15Might have to wait
13:18We've got it close
13:19To the edge of the road
13:20I need help
13:21To get this job done
13:24Paul
13:25He's here
13:26Uncle Rob
13:28And his 50 ton
13:29Have returned
13:31Just next time
13:32I can't swing it
13:33Like I need you
13:34To pull it
13:35Yeah
13:36Just keep pulling backwards
13:38He did a pretty impressive job
13:40They got it out of the trees
13:41So it's easier to get at now
13:43We just got to pull it
13:44Straight up the bank
13:45He just picked up
13:46Right behind the shack
13:48And then you're going to
13:48Hook on the back
13:49Yeah, I'll just hook on the pin
13:50And it'll come
13:51Okay
13:56With a line from the 50 ton
13:57To the rear
14:00And the button top loader
14:02Rigged to a chain
14:03Behind the cab
14:05They'll drag the truck
14:07Onto the road
14:11Good
14:12Okay, we've got the
14:14Big wrecker hooked on now
14:18He's going to help
14:19While I hook on here
14:21Rob leads the charge
14:24With the 50 ton
14:25It's helping by lifting
14:27The front a bit
14:27So it's not dragging so hard
14:30While Ty's log loader
14:31Takes the weight
14:36Keep pulling
14:42That's good
14:44The truck is finally
14:46Out of the ditch
14:48I'll pull that out
14:50With one of my tongs
14:51And just grab this
14:53But it's still far
14:54From road ready
14:55Okay
14:57Try that
14:59Everybody stand back
15:01We've got to clean it up
15:02To make it safe
15:03To go down the road
15:04So we're going to have
15:04The button top
15:05Just kind of break
15:06A few things off
15:07It'll just make it
15:08Way easier
15:08To try to hook on to it
15:10Okay
15:10I'll make some shrap
15:12Oh yeah
15:19It's hard in there
15:20Woo
15:33Should I go back
15:34Get the deck
15:34Yeah maybe
15:35You might have to
15:36Go back
15:36Now that we've got
15:39The truck on the road
15:40I'm taking the opportunity
15:41To go back to town
15:43And grab the town deck
15:45I'll go back
15:47So that I can grab
15:48All the pieces
15:49That have been torn
15:49Off the truck
15:52It's on the road now
15:54And it's going to get
15:55Out of the way
15:55So they can
15:56Load it onto the low bed
15:57And he can get out of here
16:00I'll probably walk
16:01I'll wait
16:02To reach the low bed
16:04For transport
16:05Get on my tires
16:07They'll need rubber
16:10To hit the road
16:12These are grousers
16:13And they will destroy
16:14And they will destroy this pavement
16:15In like no time at all
16:16So we put the tires down
16:18Keep the tracks off
16:20The cement
16:22The button top
16:24Is loaded on the low bed
16:25Boom
16:29And hauled away
16:31We've got to focus on
16:32Cleaning up the mess
16:33So we can
16:34Get things off the road
16:36As quick as we can
16:38Paul returns
16:39With the flat deck
16:40To help finish the job
16:44We're going to put all this stuff
16:45On the deck
16:46In a slick way
16:47Hey
16:49Pretty messy
16:50Nephew Chris
16:51Takes one last look
16:54This thing saved my life
16:57At what could have been
17:03That was kind of my favorite truck
17:05No, I'm going to miss it
17:07I'll replace it
17:08And get back to work
17:10He'll probably be a little nervous
17:11For the first little while
17:12Driving again
17:12But he's a strong-willed young man
17:15He'll get comfortable
17:16Fairly quickly I hope
17:19The last piece
17:20Is loaded onto the flat deck
17:22Enough
17:23We're on
17:25And it's on its way
17:28Everyone was unharmed
17:29In this incident
17:31So
17:31Can't be thankful enough
17:33Hey, I'm going to town
17:34It was a good day
17:36I got to hang out with family
17:38And
17:39Had a good day at work
17:41She cleared up now
17:43I'm amazed
17:44It opened this path
17:49What's the hold up?
17:50At rush hour
17:51At rush hour
17:51In the Fraser Valley
17:53I want to go home
17:55I want to be thinking
17:55Here
17:57An upside down manure tank
18:00I wonder if we just drive
18:01From this side
18:02As team aggressive
18:03I got enough boom
18:04That we can stay close to it
18:06Rethinking their strategy
18:08Yeah, let's go see
18:09What it looks like
18:11The traffic behind that wreck
18:12Is really backing up
18:13So in order to get around
18:14Would take a long time
18:16We're just going to do it all
18:16From this side
18:18Merv backs the rotator in
18:20As close as he can
18:22To the hitch
18:24What's this tractor weigh?
18:2625,000 pounds
18:27Okay, good
18:29Separating the tractor
18:30From the trailer
18:31Just provides
18:32The simpler way
18:33Of getting this job done
18:35We'll grab either side
18:37Two lines are hooked
18:38To the rear of the tractor
18:41We don't want to be
18:43Trying to disconnect the hitch
18:44Without supporting the tractor
18:46In some way
18:46See what she does
18:49We're going to try to relieve
18:50A little bit of stress
18:50And tension on that hitch
18:53With a rotator
18:54Easing up the tractor's
18:5625,000 pounds
18:59Tractor moves
19:01Go whack that pin a little, Dickie
19:03It's now up to Jaden
19:07To disconnect the hitch
19:09Jaden's in a pinch point for sure
19:10That's not a very friendly
19:12Or nice place to be
19:13There's a lot of tension
19:14On that for sure
19:17I thought that was going to
19:18Kick like a horse though
19:19We don't want to
19:20Have that pin come right
19:21Out, go flying
19:22Careful
19:25There'll be a lot of tension there
19:27In the Fraser Valley
19:30I wonder if it's going to kick
19:31Like a horse though
19:33Disconnecting a 25,000 pound tractor
19:37Suspended in the air
19:40Puts Jaden
19:41In the danger zone
19:43It's a bit of an awkward spot
19:44There's no real way
19:46Of getting it to a nice spot
19:47To hammer on it
19:48There
19:49But from below
19:51And with a heavier duty tool
19:55The owner pitches in
19:58You can probably hit it
19:59With a pry bar in there now
20:03Oh yeah, she's going
20:09Okay, whack that pin
20:17We got the manure tank
20:19Off the back of the tractor
20:22And now it's just
20:23Take the tractor
20:25Place it back on the ground
20:31Okay, we're clear to move it
20:32Yeah, move her ahead
20:34It's a big win for us
20:35When the owner of the vehicle
20:37Can actually just drive it away
20:39The tractor is cleared
20:40Well, let's get this thing
20:42On its wheels
20:45But the 81,000 pound manure tanker
20:49Is still blocking the important route
20:53If we pick it
20:54And we get a grey on that back hoop
20:57And a grey on that front hoop
20:59On that side
20:59And we come underneath to one point
21:03And we can go up
21:05This is going to be done in two maneuvers
21:07And then this side we hook here
21:09And then we use the other cable to
21:12Let it out
21:13I don't want that tank
21:15To split open
21:16And cover me in cow manure
21:22With two lines to straps
21:24Cradling the fragile side walls
21:28They'll first reverse roll
21:30The tanker onto its side
21:32Then they'll move closer
21:35Add a catch line
21:36And gently land it
21:38Onto its wheels
21:43Okay, pull
21:47Come on
21:50We don't want to roll it over
21:51Into a position
21:53Where it would want to go
21:53Into the ditch
22:01Okay, grey strap all the way under
22:11Coming this way boys
22:16We just gotta be careful
22:17We'll move slow
22:22Watch yourself buddy
22:25That's what we're looking for
22:26Just no splitting action
22:28And no spreading the manure action
22:41Milk chocolate
22:45Stinky mess that is
23:02It's a beautiful night for a drive
23:0411 kilometers southwest
23:06In Abbotsford
23:07Yeah, it's in good shape boys
23:11MSA's 35 ton rolls out to a job
23:14We'll all head out
23:16With Gersimran or Sim Banwaite
23:19Stepping up this year
23:22We don't want our dad working as hard
23:24And doing all the heavy lifting
23:27So he's kind of stepping back now
23:29And letting us do the job
23:32We're just going for a flat deck trailer
23:36That's loaded with lumber
23:37He's down the road from our yard
23:40This is not going to hold
23:42Already on scene
23:44Sim's father, Karpal
23:46I'm semi-retired
23:49They are doing all the recoveries and stuff
23:52If they do need my help
23:54They said, okay, let's go do it
23:57Sam
24:00Looking around at the rest of the yard
24:02It doesn't look too bad
24:04But this one spot
24:05Where the trailer was unloaded
24:07Is like quicksand
24:08A closer look
24:10This isn't even lumber
24:11What is this?
24:12Reveals an unusually heavy load
24:15Hardy panel
24:16The load is house siding
24:18It's in an awkward spot
24:21The pair must work fast
24:25To avoid an even bigger problem
24:27Because it's sitting in the 45 degrees
24:30If the belt broke
24:32The load can slide off the trailer
24:35It's easy to lose the load
24:37Just to try to lift it up a little bit
24:40From that end
24:41Butt lifting with the boom
24:43The thing is
24:44The sides of these trailers
24:45Aren't strong at all
24:49Could collapse the trailer
24:51What if we don't even use the chains
24:53Then just the bar
24:55T-bar right underneath
24:56Will take the receivers off
24:58Come from the side
24:59They'll try using the underlift
25:02On the reinforced kingpin plate
25:05That's where all the weight
25:06Of the trailer sits
25:07On the truck anyways
25:09But to get the four foot wide
25:12Underlift in place
25:13From this angle
25:14They'll need to approach
25:16From the side
25:18Yeah that will be ideal
25:20To level the 44,000 pound trailer
25:23Bring in this angle
25:25So that way we can go further in
25:29To lift the other side up
25:34Sim positions the wrecker
25:36At a 90 degree angle
25:39And as we lift
25:41It'll level itself out
25:43With the underlift
25:45Right below the kingpin
25:47Okay sim
25:50The 35 ton
25:53Carefully raises
25:54The fully loaded trailer
25:56Lots can happen
25:58The load can get damaged
26:00And the trailer can get damaged
26:02The trailer can get twisted
26:05I think that's good
26:07Finally out of the soft ground
26:09Do you want to stick some blocks here?
26:12They need to find a way
26:14For it to stand on its own
26:16Yep
26:17Now I can throw some
26:18Wood blocks underneath
26:20The landing gear
26:21So it doesn't sink back down
26:24But working
26:25Under the suspended trailer
26:27Is risky
26:29This trailer is loaded
26:31And it's heavy
26:32I'm kind of sketched out
26:34As I'm trying to get some
26:35Blocks underneath
26:36And so
26:36I'm going to get in there
26:38Quickly
26:39Do what I need to do
26:40And then get away
26:41Yep
26:42Okay coming down
26:48I'm hoping that this rock
26:50Doesn't break the wood
26:58That's good
27:00On a farm in Abbotsford
27:02Can you drop it?
27:0544,000 pounds of house siding
27:09Come down
27:11As MSA
27:12Feeling the weight
27:17Okay bring your truck
27:21So now he's going to
27:22Hook it up
27:24We have to do this quicker
27:26Otherwise the landing gear
27:27Is going to be sunk
27:28Into the ground again
27:30The tractor moves in
27:33Yeah he's good
27:34Connects to the trailer
27:36He's got it
27:38The trailer's hooked up now
27:39So it's all good
27:40It doesn't look like
27:41It's twisted or anything
27:43And drives out of harm's way
27:46I'm feeling great
27:47Because the truck
27:48Is hooked up to the trailer
27:50But we are not done yet
27:54The shifted load
27:55Could fall off the side
27:58So now we are going to
28:00Flip these receivers over
28:02And try to
28:03Push the load
28:05We have to push the load back
28:09So it will be stable
28:12Using dunnage
28:13And the 35 tons
28:15Under lift again
28:16The load is pushed
28:20That's good
28:20Back into place
28:22All good?
28:23Yeah man
28:26The driver's able to
28:27Go deliver his load
28:28Done deal
28:29Sim is learning
28:32And he has better ideas
28:34Than I do
28:35So I can step back
28:37I'm so proud of that
28:39Tonight went very well
28:41My dad's getting older
28:43He can still do the work
28:44And he loves it
28:46But I just want to
28:48Have him relax more
28:50And take that weight
28:51Off his plate
28:52Yeah just another day
28:53In the life of MSA
29:00Is this open yet?
29:0315 minutes northeast
29:04On Township Line Road
29:06Still closed
29:08Team Aggressive
29:10Is recovering
29:11A leaky manure tanker
29:13I don't want to alarm you
29:15I'm really starting
29:16To smell around here
29:19There's been
29:19Some good damage
29:23It's allowing
29:24The manure to spill out now
29:28The first section
29:29Of the roll
29:29Is completed
29:31Beauty
29:31So the second part
29:32Of our roll
29:33We're catching it
29:33With the third line
29:34In order to slow it down
29:35Set it on the ground
29:36Nice and easy
29:37Hey buddy
29:38Pull your weight
29:41And it prevents
29:42The chance of it
29:43Rupturing
29:43And spilling more
29:44Contents all over the road
29:46I'm hooked
29:50With a third catch line
29:52In place
29:52The rotator
29:54Will gently roll
29:55The tanker
29:56Onto its wheels
29:59Hey buddy
29:59Let the festivities begin
30:06Lifting on one side
30:10And controlling the roll
30:12And controlling the roll
30:12On the other
30:16Merv
30:23Gets the touchdown
30:26Good job buddy
30:27The cost of the equipment
30:29And professionalism
30:30To add the extra catch line
30:31It looks way better
30:32Than just slamming it
30:33To the ground
30:34A quick re-rig
30:36Yep
30:38And the tanker
30:40Is swung back
30:40Onto the road
30:43Hey Mervyn
30:44What's for dinner?
30:46Yeah
30:46Cow manure
30:50With local traffic
30:51Backed up
30:52Let's get the road open
30:54Priority is to clear
30:56The tanker
30:56From the roadway
30:58Is it going in the farm?
30:59Yeah
30:59Yeah
31:00It's going to the second driveway
31:01About 150 feet from here?
31:02Yeah
31:03Okay
31:04The owner wants it
31:06In the farmer's property
31:07Right adjacent to us
31:08And then we can deal
31:09With it over there
31:11Unable to move on its own
31:13They chain a tractor
31:14To the back
31:17And a loader
31:18To the front
31:24And escort the manure tanker
31:29Back to his yard
31:33Is it open
31:34Or what's going on?
31:3690 minutes
31:37After the crash
31:37First occurred
31:38We gotta go boys
31:40He's opening the road
31:41Traffic is flowing again
31:43Rolling through then
31:44Woohoo
31:46But the job
31:47Is far from over
31:49We have to get this thing
31:50Out of the farmer's yard now?
31:56Look at that little baby cow
31:59Baby cows
32:01Ew
32:02Don't bite me
32:06Merv
32:06Has to deal
32:07With the incapacitated tanker
32:10It was rolled over
32:12And it is no longer operational
32:14Oh
32:15I see a little bit
32:17For us to haul it away
32:19We're just going to put it
32:19On a low bed
32:20I'll probably grab
32:22Each rail on either side
32:23On that hitch again
32:25We'll come around
32:26The tank up
32:26With the two grays
32:29Some of the lifting points
32:30On the top of this manure tank
32:32Were actually damaged
32:33In the rollover
32:36We're going to have to use
32:37Two straps and some chain
32:38To grab the frame
32:39Mmm
32:39Cow manure
32:48Ech
32:49It's flinging poo
32:51This is not your most enjoyable wreck for sure
32:55Rigging in place
32:57All right
32:57Merv
32:59Starts the lift
33:00And this thing was completely upside down
33:03And it would be a very poor situation
33:05To find out that it did have some structural damage
33:08Coming this way boys
33:09We're a little bit nervous about it
33:11Can you see?
33:13I'm not guaranteed it's going to make it
33:15But
33:15Oh boy
33:20On a farm in Abbotsford
33:22We're gambling a little bit
33:25Aggressive's 35,000 pound wreck
33:28Hangs in the balance
33:32We don't want anything coming apart
33:35During a lift
33:35With the damaged tanker
33:37Suspended in the air
33:39All right
33:40Get lined up with her
33:41The low bed
33:43Makes its move
33:45Pretty tight area
33:46We're working in
33:47We don't want to hit anything
33:49We're working around the baby cows
33:51So we want to be careful of them too
34:11Positioned under the tanker
34:13Somebody push one way
34:14And one guy push the other way
34:16And we'll get her lined up with the trailer
34:17And I'll just keep booming down for now
34:19The team makes final adjustments
34:23You can't be just going down the road
34:25With this thing hanging off the side
34:27And causing more dangers to the public
34:32Ta-da!
34:37Okay
34:37Chain her down
34:40Our crew
34:41Has been around the block a few times
34:43We got this down pat pretty good
34:45Walk in
34:46Hook it up
34:47Pick it up
34:47Put it down
34:47And we all drive away
34:49I can't believe
34:51How good that went
34:55Didn't get covered in manure either
35:01Let's move on
35:04Learned a few tips and tricks
35:06From Irv
35:07Oh man
35:10I gotta pet some
35:11Cute baby cows
35:12So it was a good day
35:16Utterly fantastic
35:28The next day
35:30In Hallwood
35:31There's a visitor
35:33At the Jamie Davis yard
35:38You're at the front gate?
35:41Okay
35:41We'll buzz you in
35:49So we've had a guy
35:50Like standing
35:51Literally on the road
35:52In front of the gate
35:53All day long
35:54He's piquing my interest
35:56A little bit
35:57So at least we should sit down
35:59And you know
36:00Talk to him
36:01Hello
36:02How are you Jimmy?
36:05You've been outside the gate all day
36:06Yeah
36:07I really want to work for you
36:08Really?
36:09My name is Maxim
36:10Chamberlain-Nurman
36:11And I'm 23 years old
36:13Oh yeah
36:14I want too much
36:15Oh yeah
36:15I'm Jamie
36:16What's your name?
36:17I'm Maxim
36:17Chamberlain-Nurman
36:18Maxim has travelled
36:20Across the country
36:22I'm from Camelton
36:23New Brunswick
36:24Long way from here
36:25To pursue his dream
36:28Come on in
36:29I'll buy you a coffee
36:30Or a hot chocolate
36:32Well I'm really happy
36:34To see Jamie
36:35Because it's my dream
36:36To work for Jamie
36:40I was 7 years old
36:41When I knew I wanted
36:42To work for you
36:43And now
36:43You were 7?
36:44Yeah
36:45Am I that old?
36:48And now I'm here
36:49Wow
36:50I just can't believe the story
36:53It actually is
36:54It's kind of amazing really
36:55Like
36:56You know
36:57You just come right across the country
37:00You leave your hometown
37:02I get emails every day
37:03From people wanting jobs
37:05And I appreciate it
37:06That they're thinking
37:07Of coming to work here
37:08But this is different
37:10You don't have people
37:11Banging down the door
37:12Coming to apply for a job
37:13And what did you drive?
37:14A flatbed?
37:15Yeah, a flatbed, yeah
37:16Hmm
37:17But I need to start somewhere
37:19Yeah?
37:20You got a point there
37:21This is my dream
37:22And I really want it
37:23I just follow my dream
37:26That's all I have in life
37:27You know
37:28My first instinct
37:29Is to say
37:30No, I don't know you
37:31I don't know where you come from
37:33Right?
37:34Yeah
37:35We don't really
37:36Need anybody else
37:37At this point
37:38We don't really know
37:39Who you are
37:40And we're not really
37:41Hiring people right now
37:44I came a long way
37:46And I'm scared
37:47He's gonna say
37:48Go home
37:50This place is hard work
37:51And it's not easy
37:53You have to be strong up here
37:55I am
37:56And physically strong
37:57Yeah
37:58Max is a young guy
37:59And he seems eager
38:00And that's one thing
38:02I don't really see
38:03In young people these days
38:06We'll give you a shot
38:07You came a long ways
38:09You know, he really reminds me
38:13Of myself quite a bit
38:14In the younger days
38:15So welcome aboard
38:16Thank you, Jimmy
38:19I'm pretty happy
38:21It's my dream
38:22Okay, let's go back
38:23I'm gonna give you
38:25A bit of a test
38:26Before we send him
38:26Out on the road
38:27We have to put him
38:28Through the paces
38:28A little bit here
38:29To just see
38:30And assess where he's at
38:32Take this tow truck
38:33Right now
38:33Right?
38:34We're gonna do
38:35A little test run
38:36For the cross-country
38:37Job seeker
38:38So you told me
38:39That you've driven
38:40Record before?
38:41Flatbed
38:41Only flatbed
38:42You only did a flatbed?
38:43Yeah
38:43I never did
38:44Something like that
38:46This is where
38:47The rubber
38:48Meets the road
38:50So have you done
38:51Dolly's?
38:52Dolly's?
38:53No
38:53You haven't done
38:54Dolly's?
38:54No
38:56I'm not quite sure
38:57He has the experience
38:59He's advertised
39:01Okay
39:01Gonna be new for me
39:03Hmm
39:05Now I wanna give you
39:06A bit of a test
39:07At Jamie's yard
39:08In Hope
39:09So you told me
39:10That you've driven
39:11Record before?
39:12Flatbed
39:12Only flatbed
39:13You only did a flatbed?
39:14Yeah
39:14I never did
39:15Something like that
39:16A job seeker's dream
39:19Okay
39:19Gonna be new for me
39:20Is within reach
39:22Hmm
39:23Max tells me
39:24That he's
39:25Been on a flatbed
39:26So
39:27A wrecker's probably
39:28A little bit tougher
39:29For him to work on
39:30Okay
39:31Well
39:31Jump in this truck
39:32But I'm sure
39:34He can
39:34Work his way
39:35Through the problems
39:36Get the back
39:37Into that white car
39:38There
39:39Yeah
39:40Pick it up
39:40By the back end
39:41Put the dollies
39:42On the front end
39:42And then I want you
39:43To go drive around
39:44Go back
39:45Turn around
39:45And back in
39:46Straight in here
39:46With you
39:47Okay
39:48I'm there to learn
39:49So let's see
39:51What I can do
39:52We'll see
39:53What's what here
39:55It's one thing
39:55To talk the talk
39:57Another thing
39:58To walk the walk
39:58When you're
39:59At your dream
40:00You don't want
40:01To mess up
40:02I need to show
40:03That I can do it
40:12So put your arms
40:13On your L-arms
40:13You've got to
40:14Really give it up
40:19Yep
40:20Done
40:20Next one
40:22Trucks are
40:24$280,000
40:25To go pick up
40:26Somebody's
40:27$100,000 car
40:29This is a big
40:30Responsibility
40:32Okay
40:32That's okay
40:33So now
40:33Make sure
40:35It's straight
40:36So we have to
40:37Make sure
40:38That he can do
40:38What he says
40:39He can do
40:39Now what you've
40:40Got to worry about
40:42Is
40:42You're going to
40:43Put this in here
40:44But I'm going to
40:44Tell you something
40:45You see this
40:45See how we're
40:46Lifting the car up
40:47Yeah
40:48There's a lot of
40:48Pressure under here
40:49Right
40:50Now the first
40:50The first one
40:51Oh it's not so bad
40:53Right
40:54I like to do what I can
40:56To mentor other guys
40:57And pass on whatever
40:59Tricks I know
40:59Maybe a bigger car
41:02You get way more
41:03Pressure under here
41:04Okay
41:05So realize the pressure
41:07That's in here
41:07Okay
41:09So there you go
41:10Boom
41:10You're in
41:11And then do the other ones
41:13Probably the best
41:14Training you can get
41:16Okay
41:17Now your dollies are done
41:18That is hands on
41:20Experience
41:20Hands on training
41:22So I want you to go
41:24Drive around the yard here
41:25Do a loop
41:25Come back in the yard
41:27Go up there
41:28Back down
41:29Right
41:29Come back
41:30And then back it in
41:31Over there
41:31Okay
41:32Perfect
41:33Okay
41:37Slow and steady
41:38You'll win the race
41:39I know I can drive
41:40But wind is not your stuff
41:42It's kind of stressful
41:47He doesn't have to be
41:48Overnight learning things
41:50You know
41:50But I want to know
41:51That he's competent
41:54Dead straight back
41:59Yeah right in like that
42:01After this initial test here
42:03Okay
42:04I know where he's at
42:08You know I think
42:09You did pretty good
42:09I think that
42:12You're not as
42:14Experienced
42:15It's pretty clear
42:16That he's never done
42:17A dolly job
42:17And he hasn't run
42:18This piece of equipment
42:19Before
42:20The biggest thing
42:21For me here
42:22Is that
42:22Max has
42:23A good attitude
42:24And he's willing
42:26To learn
42:28It's kind of scary
42:29When it's your first time
42:30But it is a learning experience
42:32And then we'll get those dollies in
42:34Okay
42:35Perfect
42:36You did pretty good
42:37Even you're backing around
42:38And stuff
42:39He's not ready to go on his own
42:41Right now
42:41But
42:42We can train him
42:43We can work with him
42:44All right
