Topic: Wrong way to right a rig after a flop!!!

[Tice]

Here's the video of us flippiong my rig after I flopped it, Side note>>> I said we needed to put someone in it cuz of the area it was laying in, it was in gear and found out after checking the front case popped out, still none of us should have flipped it over without atleast checking to make sure.  Lesson learned and noone got hurt.

You are really lucky! that was friggin close!

guy I know of righted his rig and forgot to put the ebrake/in gear on the rig in all the confusion. Long story short.......Huge hill, momentum, tree= totalled truck

Always, always, always anchor the vehicle. Usually in 2 locations, one to keep it from re-flopping from the momentum created in righting the vehicle and another spot to keep it in position so it can't roll very far once it is on its wheels again...... that was real lucky someone didn't get run over.

What was that shiny thing that went flying?

[Cheesemaker]

Yah!  The first thing I thought was where is the safety line???  You had a perfect anchor in front of you!!

Shiny thing?  My antenea was floppin around.  We made it a man law on another board that someone must be in the rig before righting it or have it tied off to something.

[Tice [OP]]
