Quite Amazing!

Two Excavators in Deep **** - Heavy Recovery - Terribargarn, Sweden - YouTube

Once again, I find it discouraging that Europe has such cool equipment. Check out the logging style claw on the back of the Excavator Bucket. Never seen that before.

I also can't help but notice that you don't see one annoying, flashing light unless equipment is blocking traffic. In NA there would be a thousand blinding and distracting LED lights, just to put on a good show, and they probably wouldn't get the equipment out anyway!

I wish all those recovery type shows would give a price tag.

It does make our equipment look like something in Mr. Slates (Flintstone) Quarry.

I’m surprised the combined winch pull isn’t more than 100 tons. I thought the heavy wreckers had close to that much combined winch pull.

I too, thought a hundred tons of pull wouldn't do much.

Don't forget that is 100 metric tonnes - 220k pounds. I would have expected the suction of the mud to cause them more grief at the outset. I imagine the poor operator in that cab as the excavator began to sink into that abyss.
