A land Rover Defender had become stuck in sand at Sealine Beach. There was an incoming tide that swamped the vehicle.
This resulted in the electrical system failing and the brakes being locked on.
This is the recovery of the vehicle.

This truck is my truck, and I am the one who did this work, and I am the driver of the Boom Truck, and the one who carried out the rescue operation was me and my truck in the most dangerous places on the shores of Qatar.

So crazy how some people that apparently has lots of money to buy a high end vehicle like this lack some brains to avoid these situations. Surely that is a total loss. Great footage by the way, such a gorgeous beach and waters. I'm impressed with that rescue truck / crane and operator - he was very smooth and careful. Looks like the OLD Land Rovers are the ones to have too.

Thanks Sand Man for the great videos. In these situations its the driver's fault, not the car/truck. Dealing with what we call locally "low tide trenches" demands a great deal of experience to figure out the best spot to cross and at what angle.

Land Rover is a brand loved worldwide. It would be ideal if they add a Deffender variant with the same looks but basic technology, like in the land cruisers of the years 2000 to 2020. People would choose between the reliable, less comfortable varient (especially those who will drive on bumpby terrains and the very comfortable but sophisticated (thus less reliable) line they are now adopting for client who should only drive on ashphalt in areas within reach of specialised service.

@user-lx4gv8vv7d 3 ай бұрын

It's not correct. What actually happens is that the transmission, as with any JLR product, can't be shifted into neutral unless the engine is running and free of certain faults. There is an override for towing. Same with the e-brakes. They simply have to be unlocked. There are directions for all of this published by Land Rover.

Great recovery, love the way you always remain calm and relaxed! I'd love to share a couple of best practices I've learned from being the stuck vehicle back in my drinking days lol. First when stuck vehicle is being pulled don't let them give it gas, just let the idle of the engine spin the tires. If tires spin to fast they are burying themselves right back before they are moving so your just dragging them anyways. If they idle they sit on top of sand much quicker, still slow but not buried. You are by far the expert here not me you know your area not me so you can decide if this idea can hurt your process or help it. Thanks for the great content for me to watch have a great 2024. Keep up the good work. 😊😊

I lived there 2000 to 2003, did shed loads of desert trips with Hisham(good friend), one lesson VERY QUICKLY learnt, if you wan to drive in the desert, take and Toyota Land Cruiser or a Nissan Patrol…. Land Rovers( any type) are nowhere near as good, not only how they drive off road, but reliability, we were towing them out EVERY weekend, would never buy one.

Will Need A Big 4×4 Truck With A Winch To Pull Out Slowly. If Not Yanking With Straps Are Only Going To Damage Both Vehicles Along With Damage To Drivetrain On Vehicle Doing Pulling. Bring Out The Shovels, Plywood Boards & Traction Mats. When Driving In Sand, Always Deflate Tires To 15 psi. Always Keep Moving, Never Stop Unless It Solid Sand. Never Drive To Close To Low Tide Area Because If You Get Stuck, High Tide May Come In & You Will Lose Vehicle In The Surf. Have Proper Tow Straps, Shovel, Jack, Boards. Try To Only Go 4 Wheeling With Other Vehicles In Case Of Mishaps. Information From USA, North Carolina Outer Banks Beach Buggy.
