Those Diesel XJ's got way more pulling power

Hahahaha I called one of my buddys once to pull me out of a ditch in his front wheel drive 4 banger car at like 3 in the morning.Anyways I had a fully loaded Dodge Dakota and he had an accord or something and he couldn't get me out.I had about 20 foot of extremely heavy chain hooked to his frame and to my heavy front bumper.The last time he was gonna pull he backed all the way up to me and I said"well go ahead and let some slack in the chain before you start pulling this time,give it a little snatch"Somehow he misunderstood that because when I got in the truck and he got in the car,he put his car in gear and matted it to the floor.When that chain finally caught he had to be doing 25-30 MPH and my truck JUMPED out of the ditch.I will never forget watching his Car Crab walk away,with the frame all tweaked,it must have bound something up in his drivetrain too because the car blew up a few days later.
