    I have been reading and watching a lot about recovery as I get more and more into off-roading. I came across this gem.... watch the last recovery with full sound, I almost lost my coffee.

    I have to wonder how those people tie their shoes in the morning.

    Then I realize: oh yeah, velcro.

    Astronauts also strap rockets with 7 million pounds of thrust to their backs.

    I think they get a pass.

    Its funny and sad how often people hook a strap up and pull from an angle, not expecting the stuck vehicle to go in the direction its being pulled lol.

    I saw someone get their radiator ripped open by hooking a strap around the rad support behind the grill once.
