From Reality TV to Authenticity

When the State or National Guard can’t complete a rescue mission, it’s time to call the Diesel Brothers. “Heavy D” and “Diesel Dave” rose to fame thanks, in part, to a prank that landed them on Jay Leno and then Discovery Channel. But now they've found a much more meaningful passion. The Diesel Brothers have since carried out multiple rescue missions to recover crashed airplanes and missing persons, making use of their most impressive vehicles. These include Heavy D’s Black Hawk helicopter, which they say leaves the FAA asking, “Who are these guys and how do we know they aren’t going to kill themselves?” In a conversation about trucks, fame, and “rolling coal,” the two men outline their ongoing legal battles with an environmental group in Utah and give their take on the rise of electric vehicles. Heavy D, who has met the President himself, tells Glenn that “Trump has an authentic admiration of Glenn” because he is “legit,” and the three men applaud Trump for not taking on a “God complex” after the assassination attempt. In the end, the pair puts Glenn in the hot seat, asking him to name the one person—alive or dead—that he would most want to have dinner with.
