Default This is why you practice proper towing techniques

This is why you don't just f'ing gun it when you're towing someone, and why you don't stand right next to a winch or tow strap line!

Man... That is just no good. Is it just me, or are they using a tow strap like a snatch line? I'm just in my phone, but if that is just a tow strap, doesn't that make this activity even more dangerous than normal?

The guy that was giving the tug should be glad the strap let go, with him hitting the skinny pedal that hard not sure the driveshafts or transfer case would have held up.
