Off-Camber Rollover Insurance - Winch support

Just a quick video showing how I chose to help ensure a friend of mine didn't roll his Jeep when he ended up in an off camber situation on the trail today. It was an awkward position for him to be in, regardless of how he got there, and he was clearly uncomfortable during this point.

My solution involved strapping the winch line to his roll bar, using a snatch block fixed to a tree to hold his rear end down as he maneuvered out of the troubling spot.

I would 100% do this again the same way if it happens again. We got out of their safely, and that's the goal.
