Thread: hummvee iraq & elsewhere & interesting jeep recovery

Just forgetting Irq for a minute..... how come the Hummer had soooo much trouble pulling out the Jeep?

Thought they were all powerful!

Reckon my Disco could have done it easier.

Also loved the attention to safety with the guy running around and standing near the snatch strap at full tilt.

Aside from tooting and driving steadily, that hummer did well to keep moving, i guess the guy on top had the big fifty aimed at everything, a bit more reserved than the footage of the blac****r guys that were spraying everything.
there is some footage taken from a private security vehicle going through a similar street, and two grenades are lobbed at it, you see the first explode and the second was under the vehicle.

the second vid, now we know who chews up the fire trails.
