Don’t apologize for being human Rory. Don’t let the losers with too much time on their hands get ya down. You’re doing an awesome job!

You sound like a pretty normal guy to me. Don't let the idiots win.

Just try to ignore the idiots, Rory. Hard sometimes, I know … but when you see that sh*t just remember that 99.9 % of the people love this channel, love what you do, love the camaraderie between you and Mike and Shawn. Love the whole package. Stay safe out there and keep doing what you do. We all appreciate it!

Speaking from the UK - Rory, Mike and Shawn are three of the most genuine down to earth guys doing what they love to do. Don't let the trolls get you down and please please please don't stop posting your amazing videos. I can probably speak for all your fans - we wouldn't have you any other way.

Your private life is none of anyone else's business. We've all done things we're not proud of, I enjoy this channel and ignore the trolls. Cheers from W Jordan

btw, I LOVE how you addressed the trolls! Me & my husband laughed when you said that's "weird & creepy" and "I'm a fairly terrible person" and "we can go all out, have some fun with this" This is why people love you & your channel because you don't take any bs! Just an ordinary straight up guy that's made a few poor choices and deserves his privacy like the rest of us.

Rory, this is the price of fame. I was a professional brewer and spokesperson for the brewing industry in the state I live in for 25 years. My exwife used to complain thaf we couldn't go anywhere without someone recognizing me. For that reason I never got into the social media thing. I watch your channel because you are an offroad driving and recovery savant, and i ski and mountain bike terrain you work in. Keep doing what you do, ignore the click bait, and fu k the naysayers! Rock on Brother!!!

Rory, you're so good at keeping it real. And there are def some people jealous of your successes (KZfaq or otherwise) if they feel the need to dig through your past personal life to get attention of their own. Some people suck like that but most people are generally good, and none of us are perfect. Much love, brother.

Rory as a retired aircraft mechanic I understand your frustration. When machines don’t work you get a bigger hammer. When idiots show up you want to get a bigger hammer too… lol we aren’t necessarily people persons especially when people become problems. Don’t fret we get it…. We love your crew, skills , scenery and work ethic. That’s enough for us viewers!!!!

Rory, you are 1000% in the right here. On everything. Because you post a few work-hours in a week to YT, isn't the same as live-streaming your life 24/7/365. You have a private life, and that's nobody's business. Those people on YT, that dig through other YT-creators life and history, just to point out bad things, are just low-tier people to me. Ignore them, and keep up your great work with Trail Mater.

You have nothing to apologize for. You are absolutely entitled to a personal life. Nobodys perfect. So what and who cares. People grow and change with time. Ive seen you around town and watched how kind and patient you are and you're to be commended. You're the best at what you do and Mike and Shawn contribute to a great end result every time. F the idiots that throw shade!

Never apologize, just be you and continue on with what you're doing! Thanks for all the awesome content!

First off great Job on the recovery Shawn and also mike for epic filming as always. Secondly Rory there is no need to explain. We are all here for the same thing... You and Trail Mater and team Trail Mater that includes your family and friends and thats it! What ever happend in the past is none of our business. You are who you are and thats what brought us all here!! Keep being epic. #TeamTrailMater

Even being towed backwards in a broken jeep the legend is recognized.

I had an extremely stressful day, and the first thing I did when I got a chance to relax is watch your video. It just brought all the stress of the day down to a level I could handle. I enjoy you guys so much! Yes, you are most assuredly entitled to your privacy, so don't let the idiots get to you. I won't watch those other fake accounts and wouldn't believe anything they said. We all have a past and have things, we don't share with everyone. Keep doing what you are doing and I will keep watching and enjoying every minute!

All I have to say is thank you for the videos. Trailmater is #1 for me because of no clickbait, no open-ended titles, no melodrama, and the best combination in footage including wheeling, recovery, technical stuff, scenery, and y'all having a good time.

Your daughter and your interactions with her tell me all I want to know about your character. She has got to be your greatest accomplishment! Screw anyone that rips on you.

RORY, please , don't apologies. Why you are loved is because you are one of us, a normal bloke we can relate to. Plus a genius !!. I have learnt so much from you. Much respect. Love all of you guys.

Rory, I think you have a lot more admirers than haters. We admirers have to be reminded that if we get to town and see you or drop by to see Trailmater or buy a shirt that you are a working man. I will be on my day off and have time, but that doesn’t mean that you do. Still you’re a rockstar and you’re going to have your groupies. I am one of them and I will try to respect your boundaries if I ever see you. Glad you set us straight some times we need to be reminded.

Absolutely Best Landscape Videos on YT - as usual from you guys. Really enjoy the channel, the dirt, dust, grease, broken stuff, laughs and beautiful country. Thank you and same to all the crew!!

Keep being yourself Rorry, it's your imperfections that make you relatable to so many different people, there will always be jealous losers looking to tear you down, hearing you speak of exes and DUIs made me relate to you even more because I myself have a DUI in my past and 4 ex-wives and like you, I'm not the man I was 10 years ago. What you are and do is amazing and 99% of us are here to see just that, I'm not here to see your past, I'm here to watch the Rorry you've become.

Sorry this happened to you, Rory. The internet can be a rotten place and that's what makes the great community you have here so sweet.

We support you Rory! People need to learn to respect peoples privacy! Just because someone is popular or "famous" doesn't mean the public owns them!

It's awesome to see you guys getting recognition on the trails and around town. Well deserved.

It's so cool to hear bystanders calling Rory's name and waving! The snow-covered mountains in the distance are so beautiful. Thanks Mike for including some scenery.

I stopped by the shop in the early morning a week after Easter on my way back to MI from CA. Just stopping by to get a hoodie. Surprised to see the crew (Rory, Shawn, Mike) there talking about what was they were going to do for the morning. They were very accommodating to me, with small talk and letting me take pictures with them. A class act all around.

Just be YOU Rory, you don't have to hide anything, or prove anything to anybody! Being a "Celebrity" carries a lot of baggage, not all of it pleasant, and there will always be people out there that feel the need to take you down, DON'T Let them, and don't let them get to you! We greatly enjoy watching you do what you do, and hope you will continue to share your passion with us! See ya next year at the Wrecker Games, it was a blast, and you were super cool to yack with!

We appreciate you Rory and crew. Your personal life is yours. We are here for the content man and you guys are killing it!

The offroad community is so lucky to have someone like you out there doing what you do. I'd like to meet you sometime...on your terms, not after a long day on the trail...and hopefully we'll never need your services.

Thanks for putting yourself out there. We are all weirdos at heart. :)

Great work Gentlemen. Rory , you have nothing to apologise for. You are who you are and that seems to be a caring normal person. As for the buttheads that earn their money and jollies doing " expose's " , they should get themselves a real job and make a difference to the world, just like you, Shawn and Mike do. Keep up the great work guys. Your honesty is appreciated by all your watchers as well as , I'm sure, the people you rescue and assist while they're out enjoying life.

You're a normal human being, Rory. You have a past, a present, and future; and it's nobody's business but yours. No need to explain anything to us. Just keep up the great work you do and don't let those idiots bring you down to their level of trash. You, Shawn, and Mike are an amazing team and the best at what you do ✌️👍🏆🇺🇸

Good Conversation Rory! There are always going to be Trolls trying to make money off someone else's life. I see them for Matt and Paul also - we come to enjoy your video's - so keep up the great work! Hi to Sean and Mike!

Still love how unpredictable Rory’s posting time is. Keeps us on our toes and even more excited when we see it! But remember if you watch it, like it!!

Your personal life is nobody’s business even if your a public figure. You were so kind and generous with your time when I met you. Will always be fan of you Rory, Mike and Sean.

Rory, I've seen those "black-market" videos about you popup on my list, but I've never watched them. What you do/have done in your private life is none of my business. PLEASE, keep rescuing people and machines, and keep having fun! Thanks!

Rory, your channel is one of my favorites on KZfaq. What makes it so good is it's real and raw with NO BS. Keep up the good work and IGNORE the CRAP that HATERS post.

I don’t care what you have done, I’m here to see your skills. Big fan of all 3 of you. Keep the videos coming boys

We Definitely all have a past and there’s also a present!!! I have a screwed up past but if anyone mentions it to me I just tell them “ the past is the past I don’t live there anymore “ ! There’s only one person we have to answer to and be judged by and it definitely isn’t anyone we the living have met yet!!! Hope it gets better for ya, Rory!

You need to be you Rory, and you are. Mission accomplished. Everyone else seems to have said it, you deserve your privacy and off hours without harrassment. Do not change. Unless you want to... but you do not need to.

I'm a fan of your channel no matter what Rory. You are right to be upset with a low life telling your private life history. Keep up the great content.👍

People that do the exposed videos are the ambulance chasers of YT. Sadly lazy people with zero ethics/morals will always be a thing. The vast majority of us are just like you Rory, we understand people F up in life and learn from those experiences. Sometimes for us stupid ones it takes a few marriages to figure it out. LOL .... Continue to just be you brother we got your back.

Rory, you do what you do and forget the foolery. I like what you put out there with your team, and what you allow to be input from your personal life. I like you & your team, whats done is done and keep rocking you, thats what were here for.

You are just a working guy like me and that is why I watch. And you person life no ones business. Keep up the good work

A month ago if somebody told me that in 30 days I'd be binge-watching a bunch of Offroad Recovery videos of some dude and his team out of Moab, UT ... I would've said "What the heck are you smoking???" A few weeks ago I accidentally stumbled across one of your videos on KZfaq and now I'm hooked! In any case, I find your videos very interesting, entertaining, and informative ... and most intriguing to me is your ability to get that really cool wrecker you built, into some crazy sketchy areas, and then cut/weld/fab (and tow if necessary) out in the field to help get people back on 4 wheels again ... your skills are quite impressive. As for the tail-end of this latest video, all I can say is that you handled the issue with class dude! Reminded me of the movie "8-mile" where Eminem throws all his dirt on the table himself and in effect totally leaves his nemesis without any ammo! It sucks that somebody (who clearly lacks any level of class) would even put you in that situation to begin with, but kudos to you for handling it the way you did. Love your videos bro ... keep 'em coming! Hope to swing by next time I'm in Moab and show support by buying one of your shirts (and wearing it with pride up here in Lehi) ... and of course if I break down while I'm there, you know which shop I'll be calling!

Ah, the unfortunate reality of "social media". If the trolls were required to sign their real name and telephone number to every post they made so they would be accountable for their content, there might be less of this BS. Love how you keep it real. You are a human being that has a life. We come for the awesome content and commentary (and Shawn's giggle). Please don't change what you do and don't listen to the idiots. We will keep watching!

Alli have to say is thanks for the entertainment. That goes for Shawn and Mike too.

I agree with you Rory, you have a great channel and we all need our space. Just ignore the others! Love watching you and your team!

Dude, you're human and doing your thing. Having a channel does not mean you have to cater to other peoples star hunting needs. You may have your flaws, we all do. Let the trolls cast the stones and you just keep being you. That's all that matters. Peace Brother!

We love your videos. We saw the video you referred to and I just have to say, I agree with all you said. I thought it was rude and intrusive. We stopped by your shop and you and Sean were great. I was just going to get my picture with Trail Mater, but you guys took the time to talk to us and we got pictures with you too. Bonus!!! You are great and we love watching.

Everyone has skeletons in their closet. I do…. He who is guiltless, cast the first stone. It isn’t the person you were or the mistakes you made, it is what you do with it going forward. Keep it up guys!

You definitely should have privacy, unfortunately there are people that disagree. Keep doing what you are doing, thank you for keeping us entertained.

Everything you've ever done has made you who you are today. A awesome person, Don't worry you turned out fine.

I like to watch you recover and repair vehicles... your personal life is a separate thing, and nobody's business for that matter! Thanks for the content and entertainment!

Your fans get it Rory. I enjoy what you do and enjoy watching you do it. Stay you.

Retired after 40+ years of turning a wrench and don"t recall one day where someone didn't tell me they could not do it better, quicker, and cheaper. Makes me wonder what they were doing at the shop. People scrutinize their mechanics more than their doctors. I have developed such a thick skin from this that my knuckles no longer bleed, just my heart for others such as you still doing the job. "Been everywhere, seen everything, done everything! Of all the people I've met in the world, I like myself the best!" - True Grit

You're not a bad person for just wanting to do personal things in your life . I love all of your content and all that you do for the off-road community. Keep up all the great work you are doing

Rory keep being you! Yes you can have a private life. Don’t let the trolls ruin your day / life. Those of us that have met you in person, (at the wrecker games) or who watch your adventures on your channel, we don’t care what the attention hounds are trying to spread about you. You should be proud of what you have and what you are accomplishing today and in the future! Keep up the great content, great job to Sean and Mike for their amazing work on the channel! I must give credit to Joel Osteen for this quote” See when you drive home today, you’ve got a big windshield on the front of your car. And you got a little bitty rear view mirror. And the reason the windshield is so large and the rear view mirror is so small is because what’s happened in your past is not near as important as what’s in your future.” Rory stay the man you are today!

I'm glad you addressed the num nuts that doesn't have anything better to do than try to make some look bad. Maybe we should find out who they are and do the same to them. Just my opinion, I really appreciate your channel, keep it up. From Indiana

W see those videos online too; I just ignore them and refuse to give them any screen time. One of the things my wife and I appreciate most about you Rory, Mike and Shawn; are that you don't pretend to be anything other than who you are. You and your crew are amazing; making an impossible job look easy! As for the clowns trying make money off your personal history; do what we do; ignore them. You are loved! ~Rock and Sherri~

Some people have zero talent and are desperate for views at the expense of others, what I would call a "lowlife" keep on doing what your doing coz we all love ya and the crew. I'd be proud to call you a friend that's for damn sure and I ain't got no friends coz people are disappointing and disgusting. Always here to support ya'll

We all got something from behind us or current. I just wanna know how y’all stay so calm, patient and good attitude. Y’all rock.. God Bless 😊

I like the person you are and don't judge a person by thier past. People that do things like that are just jealous of your success. Keep on being real and gladly post more vids as I will be watching.

I appreciate how you film your jobs, etc., and that it’s not a SHOW. It’s an account of what you do. There’s got to be a way to thwart internet trolls. As you are getting quite famous, there’s lots of thwarting to be done. It’s a pleasure to watch you work.

Unfortunately that’s just the way some weirdos are. I wish we could just let people make their videos and appreciate the content. Great work Rory 👍

No apologies necessary…you have a life, live it my friend!! We enjoy what you post on KZfaq, it all takes a lot of your time!! Some people are just ignorant, sad to say!

The mere fact that this kind of "bothers" you, exposes your real caring human side. I will never meet you and your crew, but I sure wish I could. Keep it up.

Sorry this crap is happening. But I loved the surprise and joy of the fellows on the trail seeing Rory in the towed Jeep. Thanks for making videos!

Another awesome video guys...can't wait to see the next one! Rory say's he's a "fair-ably horrible person" that has dedicated the last half-ish of his life to helping others in need out, professionally...and everyone who know's him seems to really really like him...and by the looks of it that is a lot of people. 😄

Omg! I love watching you guys, you are just like us, our group worked together for years and now meet for coffee in the mornings once a week. Everyone has a past, if they don’t, they have not lived a life worth living! Have fun, keep making us laugh, and showing us how to fix broken trail rides!

Rory the Moab Legend.

5/7/23 just passing through Moab from Florida and saw your shop and Trailmater and had to stop for the obligatory photo. To my surprise you pulled up in your Jeep and declared you weren’t there, but were gracious enough to pose for a photo-op. I’ve been following you a couple years and truly enjoy your channel. Don’t let the naysayers get to you and just ignore them. You don’t owe them the time of day as I’m sure they’ve never done 1/10 the work and public service you have. Again, thanks for your time today.

Rory you are a great guy bud going to keep watching bud

"It's gonna get weird." Keep it weird, Rory. Thank you for being real AF.

Sorry to tell you, I watch this mess for Sean's empty laugh, mikes Kindness and patience and the scenery. Rory, you are very brave.

Your life is absolutely your business! Be nice when you can. But when you are working continue to act the way you need to. Feelings are to close to the surface any more. Thanx for all you and the guys do for us!

now there's something you don't see everyday... Mike driving, LoL I would have bet that the first one we see drive TM besides Rory would have been Lily

Love Shawn's "safety strap" 🤣🤣🤣

Rory your channel ROCKS. Don't sweat the haters sitting in their chairs that never leave the house.

Welcome to the internet. For all the good (and most of it is GOOD) there always will be Internet Maggots trying to make a living off of someone's success. Hang in there Rory and team, we ALL would miss your videos very much! !! !!!

“Trailmater exposes some executive muscle!” 😂 Everyone deserves due respect and personal space and well said Rory!! I appreciate you guys and always makes my day watching your vids... especially also old blue!! Cheers 👍

I would never run for public office simply because people dig for dirt. I have people with my name known for good and bad. Regardless of me be a good person with a good reputation, someone is always looking for an angle to cut you down to their level. I do appreciate what you have shared about your progression into the off road recovery business. It shows that everything has to evolve and you got to put yourselves out there and do something for peopleto take notice. Keep it up bud.

Rory, fame has its down side. Rather than being upset with people then upsetting them, then feeling guilty about it, let people know when they are welcome, when they aren't. and please respect your privacy. Then if anyone goes against your stated wishes, you can ask them to leave, or excuse yourself and leave them. If they are real fans, there won't be any backlash, they will understand. If they don't, that isn't your problem. Cool video!

Love watching the trail recovery stuff. Your personal life is your business. Keep it up. Thanks

Rory, thank you for your content. Your professional talents in recovery are remarkable, I’m sure you are saving lives by your example. Respect to privacy, unless a (trailmater) video comes from your channel, or one you have endorsed, it is not viewed or supported.

We all come with some baggage, small or large, but we are here viewing your channel for one thing only, you and your guys antics on the rocks and some fun thrown in. Keep up the good work Rory, the trolls can go to hell 🤣❤️🇷🇴

Hey Rory and the guys. Loved the video and as for as those other posts, you have to realize that people with nothing in their lives worth putting on You tube, all they can do is try to latch on to someone else to get the spot light. That just makes them look even smaller. Just keep doing what you do and don't sweat the losers of this world. See you on the next one.

I still love ya Rory, I think you're a pretty good guy!! Keep being you! ❤

That axle shaft said exit stage left. LoL God bless

Ole Blue has been growing on me a little. I could see where it would have it's moments to shine, but Trailmater has more of a personality. If that makes sense.

I'm glad to hear I'm not the only horrible and weard person 😂😂. Let them talk kak if they want, we don't care. We love trailmater and the whole team❤🇿🇦🇿🇦

I love your channel, you guys put out the best content and unfortunately you have attracted clickbait losers, I think the only thing to do is have KZfaq pull those videos as the content is your own copyright, not theirs. Rory, one of the things I love about you is you're straight up, your human, you call it like it is, and you are gracious enough to address this on your channel. Please don't let these losers dimish your spirit. Thank you, Sean, Mike, and Justin for being such a great team!!!!

You dont have to apologize for being a human. Screw the haters!!! Stop watching that junk its disgusting hate, just focus on you and your fans like you always do!

Your channel is successful because we enjoy seeing and hearing you being an incredibly talented and hard working you.

Rory I couldn’t agree more with you bro. Your personal life is yours. Nobody’s business but yours. Unfortunately there are those type of losers that get off on telling people things about others just to get their jollies. Keep up the great work man and forget about those freaks causing problems. Your true fans will always be your fans!

Another great video! Love when people recognize you on the trail and give shout outs of support!

cool change seeing rory in the toad & Shawn & Mike driving... Great video as always..appreciate you guys!...the mechanic shops in town must stay Swamped!

Take it as a compliment. They don’t go after people that aren’t worth going after. So you’re doing something right.

Never be sorry for being you Rory, you’re human like the rest of us. Love the channel, love watching you and your crew and love trailmater!!!

Your channel is about off road recovery and related shenanigans, and thats all it needs to be about. Yes, you are entitiled to a life outside of youtube. Some people need to learn boundaries.
