OHMYGAWD.
I only just tonight caught a re-run of the guys you were talking about. I was prepared to cut them some slack... but wow, those “aqua logging” guys are a catastrophe.
First, they’ve got no business being on the water. He clearly knows nothing about driving boats, especially in rivers. He’s gonna get people killed. Next, he’s got homebuilt equipment that just isn’t close to what he needs for that kind of work.
That “winch” has what looks like polypro line for most of it, though it also looks like a few different lengths of different kinds of rope have been tied together... wrong way to do it. That stuff will break and snap back something furious. Those logs outweigh him and his gear by many, many tons.
But more than anything they just don’t know what they are doing. It looks like he doesn’t even have a plan for what to do when he gets a log rigged up.
Yikes... He’s going to lose that boat and whoever is on it. But at least they’ll catch it all on video.
Yikes is right! :~)
I guess we missed the new one last night.
Where is the outrage that should be there for the little girl that got mauled and killed by Jesse’s dog? Which the dog had already bit a family member.The guy should be in jail for child endangerment.
