    Always check the depth

    These novices demonstrate how not to drive in the bush, not only do they not check the depth of the water, but they also do a risky dangerous recovery

    Everyone makes mistakes, the trick is to make them when no-one is looking.

    Yep - didn't check the depth, had no one guiding him, and snatch strap straight over the towball ... very professional all round - just the types I want to be heading out bush with ... LOL

    Bloody stupid or what. The guy on the video knew or had a feeling the tow ball wasn't the best place for the strap....
