Can't tell if that's synthetic rope or muscle fiber

Doesn't make sense to me. If the cable broke wouldn't the hook still be on the tow point?  Maybe the author is just mistaken. Send the hook had to come loose somehow to me.  They say it's a Houston TX area club.

Maybe hook was looped over something (axle, bull bar) and hooked back to the cable?

My guess is they had a redneck truck pull after 1 bro insulted the other's new Tony Llamas. Since pistol duels are passe, the decided to have a winch-off. The HF Badlands 10k cable snapped, leaving the Chinese warn VR12k victorious, but also seriously injuring the owner who was straddling the steel cable during the pull. Lessons learned on both sides.

I had an early departure this morning to head to Nashville for meetings today and tomorrow. Snow flurries as I passed AOP and pretty heavy flurries as I passed through Monteagle.  Very happy with my heated steering wheel and seats this morning in the truck.

I have found the steering wheel gets too hot unless I'm wearing gloves...I wish it had selectable temperature control.
