This is a reality check. How dumb can you be. A bit of common sense goes a long way when in situations like that.

Talk about a close call, that is shocking.
Live life, Love life.
Snatch straps on towballs can harm and/or kill!!!!!!
Damn lucky, and then they say "this is why they say winch cables kill people".. Hindsight
I remember an old outback show Malcome Douglas I think. He said when you get stuck Step 1. Light Fire Step 2. Put the Billy on Step 3. Have a cup of tea and a good think about how to get out. ..Step 4. Recover vehicle safely.

That particular video has been around for a couple of years, and people still do it!!
A no brainer.
The more it's shown, the better.
Cheers, the ferret.

My mates still use snatches on towballs and winch cables to snatch. They just don't give a shit. Safe to say I self recover.
