What's the deal, you never got stuck before and needed someone to help get you out?
Not all of us have a ton of friends with trucks that can come to our rescue.

I've gotten stuck plenty of times, but the only time I've ever had to resort to calling someone to come get my ass was when I left my recovery bag at home. Every other time I've either been wheeling with a group, or self recovered. And don't think for a second that my self recoveries were any less difficult than what faced that tard. There's not much that a Hi-Lift, Hand Winch, and shovel can't fix; just takes awhile
Ridicule doesn't mean he is being singled out. Everyone gets ridiculed at some point.

Well this was the kids first time mudding. So yes he didn't know of any of the recovery techniques and tools.
I'm not saying y'all are wrong at all cause yes he was an idiot for getting burried that deep and prolly should've stopped trying to get out once his wheels lost traction.
I wasn't there when he got stuck but I'm guess he started sinking and instead of stopping and checking out the outside he probably just floored it and thought he could get out which led to him framing out.
HOWEVER,
I've been stuck so bad(riding in my friends truck) that we had to use a chain hoist and loading ramps to get out
. It took us 6 hours to finally get unstuck.
But sometimes when youre new, you don't have all the proper tools and the only thing left to do is call for help.
But that's also how you learn right?
Now if he makes the same mistake twice...then he is a fucking idiot in my book

I know man. It just seems like some of the comments toward him were a lil too harsh.
We all make fun of our friends when they get stuck or something breaks on their rig(as long as its nothing serious)
But some of the comments just seemed to cross the line from fun and joking to just plain rude.

Shit when I got stuck I didn't mind the flames I learned a lot and also met new friends and thanks to TOR I got the truck out but I'll admit thanks to that I get.out the truck now and check.before I go but the flames and harsh talk is part of the fun just take it like a man and laugh when ever it happens to some else then help if.possible. And I didn't pay for gas on my stuck but I.bought plenty of beer.

Usually it takes one good "oh shit" to teach a person to check before driving.

That's the quickest way to learn not to fly head first into mud holes
. When your engine shuts off and won't start for 30 minutes after flying into a hole is a scary feeling
Give me a week's heads up so I can get my 4Runner ready this time. If I had known how bad the last one was going to be I would have loaded up my rig and came down.
