Hey guys.... This would be my truck. The only reason why I regeared just the back because I blew out my rear end and only had the money to do the back... I'm ordering the gears real soon then I'll be selling it for a powerstroke. I didn't back in too far and I almost had it out but the end when I got to the very top, it started slipping. this was like my 3rd attempt. I had a strap around the tree but its hard to see in the video. The winch is a 12000lb winch so it has plenty of pulling power. My friend just likes to film my stupidness

You are correct. They usually shoot the MICLICs out where ever they need to clear a path, typically using a tank to shoot it, there is a cord of detonator going down the middle of it. When they get it all laid out, they blow it. It's pretty impressive. I've never gotten to see it in action except on video though.
you can burn it, drop it, shoot it, step on it, and c4 wont go off. pretty much det cord/blaster caps are the only way to set c4 off lol
our route clearance used it sometimes in afghanistan, **** is cool as ****! should be some youtube vids of it if you wanna see it.

I hadn't backed in too far at all... I actually thought I had it out and the whole boat and everything was out of the water but I started slipping on some slick mud at the top. The reason I was so far back was because I was trying to get some traction by backing up and going at the hill again but it didn't help. And the reason I only regeared the back was because I blew out my rear end at an intersection about 3 weeks before this video and I had to do something to get the truck back on the road. Otherwise I would of saved up to do both at the same time
