Big rig lost control and crashed into ditch - full recovery in 360 degree video (READ DESCRIPTION)
** PLEASE READ THIS FIRST **
This is my second attempt at a full 360 degree/virtual reality video. As of right now, the only way to enjoy this technology is by using your computer or your phone on the official YouTube app. If you try to watch it on your phone through a 3rd party browser or an embedded app like your texting app, it will not work. It will also NOT work on Smart TVs; technology just isn't there yet. If you want to see this video in regular format and not 360, then check my other recent upload here: https://youtu.be/VBQYGH9PKZ0
For those that do have a computer or on your phone, it is very simple to watch. First, you don't even have to do anything as I took the "worldlock" feature off, which means the camera records and follows my helmet like a regular camera. But at anytime, you can click and drag the video or use your finger on your phone to drag the video into ANY direction! Up, down, left and right. I think the technology is cool and is the future as more hardware becomes available for it, so really hoping you guys enjoy this one.
WARNING: Most phones have an accelerometer built in that will automatically change the direction of the video just by moving your phone in any direction. This can be quite annoying, so if you don't know how to disable this setting on your phone than I suggest holding your phone straight in front of you and trying not to move it to fix this.
OK, now that I got the boring stuff out of the way, let's get to the video. This tractor trailer was loaded with approximately 20,000lbs of mail. Not sure what caused him to veer off the freeway, but I responded with Hulk (50 ton rotator) and was met by Lacky in a heavy wrecker. There are lots of ways to do a job like this, but because the tractor was in a ditch and the hill was pretty steep, I decided that stabilizing the trailer while the wrecker winches it back up was the best method.
The way I rigged it allowed me to not allow keep the trailer steady from tipping over, but also to lift the front of the trailer and rear axle of the tractor at the same time. This was very helpful towards the end when the landing gear was stuck and I was able to lift it high enough to clear.
If you liked the video, follow us on Instagram and Facebook to see our daily recoveries and more pictures of The Hulk and our 75ton rotator, Big Flipper, where I post content regularly.
We also have a new merch store on the website where you can get Pepe's gear like hats, beanies, shirts and hoodies!
