It certainly looks like the Defender had chains on to me and the H2 didn't. Is this braggin'? I'd post pics of me pulling someone out but there was NO ONE ELSE AROUND. Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge Defender fan, it's just baaaaaad karma to bag on the stuck people. It guarantees a bad stuck day in your future!

Wow, heavy snow fall! Great video .. glad someone was able to get you out of the snow bank, even if it was a Defender.

Re: I'm on youtube
Wait, you get stuck, for some reason in a snowed in ditch (were you trying to impress someone?), you need someone to recover you, and you're proud that you're on youtube having someone saving your ass?
Troll or just drunk?
Too much calimari?
Great, more troll material against H2's...

Re: I'm on youtube
Did you guys see the big metal hook in the center of the 100 foot long strap...(could have been a nice hood ornimate, or worse) Also, why would you pull someone in reverse. Reverse is a much weaker gear in the tranny than first or second.....

Gotcha Ernie. Seems like the problem was ice. The defender folks and the Hummer haters are going to have a field day with this. Most people love to hate Hummers. Givin' 'em ammo is not cool. If those are your videos on youtube, it'd be even cooler to delete them because ignorant people that don't know think that the H2 is stuck because it's inferior to the chained up Defender.
Buy some chains wouldja?
Oh yeah, that strap and hook thing, that was intensely dangerous (I've seen tow balls and clevis hooks slingshotted clean through a jeep!). Also, pulling backwards like that is really hard on the steering components.

Re: I'm on youtube
Hummer owners are much stronger than other... Everyone can have problem on iced hills... During this trip i'm very lucky because other (TOYOTA) without control have broke the oil cooler (motor) with a piece of wood (I do not know the name....pieces of wood on the side of the trail...).
Other people have take the video and say "you are on youtube".
But in Italy we do not have problem with hummer or other trucks....

Ernie, I've simply got to get my wife to Italy. Of all the places in the world I've been, it's my favorite. Perhaps someday I can get her over there.

Re: I'm on youtube
hummmm...something doesn't seem right about that vid. looks like something the H2 could have got out of on it's own if the driver would have made a good effort...or maybe the H2 just needed chains
