Pulled Out Chevy Diesel Stuck in Lake

I'll have a video put together soon, it was an exciting pull partially because other diesels were unable to extract him, partially because when I pulled he was stuck on his subframes from trying to get out all afternoon, and partially because everyone thought I might not understand physics when I offered my 1/2's ton help. I kept my mouth shut, remained humble and yanked him out after about 3 decent pulls. Even some of the people I were with doubted my truck when they saw the diesels trying, one of the guys (diesel mech.) mentions, "Don't look like a douche bag, we both saw the trucks that just tried." The chevy was lifted on 36" MTZ's.

He saw we went around that patch of mud/swampish area so he slammed his truck into reverse and loaded his ski in, he made it about two feet back up. I will post in the 04-06 forum if I ever get the video from the psycho bitch who took it. You can see in the last pic how far he dug himself in...I was slipping and sliding over that mossy embankment.

HERE IS THE VIDEO:

it's on film right before I guess, the friend of mine actually says, "oh come on dude...are you watching the same thing I am? You're about to look like a real douche bag in front of everyone."...my response is, "watch this heh."
