thanks for the entertaining pics ,-It would seem the first wrecker driver forgot to factor in the weight of sea water at 64 LBs per cu ft * the interior volume of the vehicle -increasing its normal weight considerabley.

Funny ,as a teenager off road racing a Bronco we burried it up to the windows in a bog and much the same had the first smaller wrecker get pulled in itself ,-then having a second larger wrecker pull both of us out .

thanks again

Last picture is a fake.

Notice anything wrong? No splash as it falls back in the water, look around the edges of the falling crane, just a little fuzzy ?

Yeah the last pic is photoshoped for sure. They used the 5th picture from the top as the base photo - you can see that the cars match up for both pics but the timeline wouldn't.

And the white dingy that's tied up in the background suddenly reappears in the same exact position.

It's Roundstone Pier in County Galway, Ireland.
The last one is a fake - the rest happened.

This incident happened many months ago.
It showed up on the web and the second truck falling over was quickly debunked as fake.

Or for that matter...a WAR

Sorry, I'm feeling nostalgic for the old forum and its political slant!
