With a couple of snatch blocks, almost anything is possible.

Many moons ago there was a guy stuck in his backyard. He ran the cable around the bumper and under the Deuce to the only tree behind him. Worked fine he said. Only problem was the wear on the bumper. Said it would have to be welded.

I remember that video, he was stuck in mud in a backyard and he ran it over the front bumper and under the truck.
With the truck helping as it powers in reverse it should not have taken too much of a tug to pull him backwards, relatively speaking.

Tell your Buddy that anything can be done even if there are no pictures to prove it....
I've used my duals and a rope to get me moving again... It is about common sense verses stupidity and more commonly just plain dire need at the time weighing risk vs reward. .....
Here is a Bush "wheel" Winch setup... http://wn.com/going_4wd__the_bush_winch__wheel_winch
Where there is a will, there is a way....

It can be done and there is a drawing and demos showing how. Let me switch to my lap top and see if I can find them
I cant find the threads that discuss it but heres a pic from one of the field manuals that show it. (fm 20-22 I think)

*edit*. It's not in the field manuals. But looking at that pic again it looks like it came out of one of the PM Magazines.
For anyone that owns and operates winches and likes to play in the woods I highly recommend both FM 20-22 vehicle recovery manual and FM 5-125 rigging techniques. There's a lot of stuff in those that the regular weekend warrior (4x4 mudder types) don't know
