Something I've always been taught in strap recoveries is to throw your jacket or a blanket over the middle of the strap. Beats a hook to the back of the head.

Edit: I'm copying this from my comment below so more people see it -

Other than just taking some energy out, it will also change the direction of the hook/"whatever is still attached to strap" towards not straight at you or the other driver-it has killed people.

For pulling someone out, always use a recovery strap, or this can happen:

NEVER USE THIS KIND OF STRAP: http://www.amazon.com/Neiko-Heavy-Duty-Strap-Hook/dp/B000IAIP72/ref=sr_1_1?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1396559247&sr=1-1

If that hook slides off or breaks, it will go through the back windshield, your head, and the front windshield, like they weren't even there.

Buy a recovery strap and hook it into your hitch like this: http://image.fourwheeler.com/f/46283968+w600+re0/129-1307-01%2Blow-buck-liberation-getting-unstuck%2Btow-strap-in-hitch-pin

Use a properly rated D-ring/Shackle that is specifically rated for loads, and more importantly--IS RATED FOR A HIGHER LOAD THAN YOUR STRAP. You never, ever want to have the shackle be the point of failure, or it turns into a missile.

It is better to walk home after getting stuck than to get carried to the morgue. Remember-Stay safe, stay alive.

You are better off using a recovery strap to pull someone who is stuck on the side of the road. If the metal hooks on the end of your tow strap fail, now you have a projectile shooting towards either your car or the other guy's car. Those straps are more for pulling someone at a constant speed on the road.

I've got this smittybilt which has worked great for pulling small tree stumps and did this to my gate post when I tried to drag it out.

I'd seriously reconsider pulling any stranger's cars though. If you wanna help carry jumpers, a snow shovel and a cell phone. Dont risk liability fucking up their (or your) vehicle trying to pull it.

a) smarties!!!! we both have them on our lists!!!

now that im looking we have a lot in common on our lists same protein powder, sour patch kids. creatine. and now im going to add the bumper dumper


b) since we have a lot of the same items, im gonna try to pull things off my wishlist that you might like:

You seem to do a lot of outdoors type stuff, how about a waterproof iphone case. a recovery strap incase you ever get suck or need to pull someone out.

You must workout since you have protein powder and the like: i hear this is a great workout book.

and last but not least, a camping cot
