Today me and Jack use Dave the armoured recovery vehicle to fetch the GoldenEye Chieftain from its place of slumber onto the concrete pad to begin its healing journey. mrhewes.co.uk
All day long I think chieftain was the best looking tank ever. I love being a mechanic on them (even though my knees have never forgiven me) and there was nothing as scary listening to the squadron move in the middle of the night in a forest. The sound of the engine the tracks it was just awesome. You bring back so many good memories😊
Your best ever episode! Even better than 'getting the engine out of my house'. The sheer power of the tanks. Their weight. Then Jack's words of wisdom 'If I believe what's going on in my head' and nails the tank manoeuvre only to suffer the indignity of completely getting the turret move wrong. Your team work. You slipped the safety ring onto the engine trolley and Jack put the safety pin in. Morecambe and Wise would envy your timing. The detailed explanation of inspecting and removing the engine and the totally unexpected arrival of 'Jackaline' in his/her/them's' high heels made a very serious emgineering operation comedy gold. Well done. Keep it up lads!
Well done Joe and Jack! The tracks looked super tight on the chieftain. Also Jack's sense of fashion is spot on. It looks like he's been practicing...a lot.
All I really needed after another standard 10hr day working outside today is coming home to see Jack climbing a tank, in the rain, in high heels. You delivered. Top quality content.
23.25min Yep it's a bad idea Jack ! showing my age now but , back in the 70s platforms for blokes all the rage which led to injury on the dancefloor , twisted ankle and a dislocated knee cap, got carted off to hospital that night , on crutches for 3 weeks . Yeah go on ave a good laugh🤣🤣🤣
Poor Jack, he does look quite good wearing those "stacks" for any other name. Pity he's got the walk down to a Tee... Anyway welcome back to the fold Jack, you were missed, if only because, you went off with a spanner, (Oh, sorry, someone called you a spanner, misunderstood the conversation). Nice piece for work getting that T piece off, and the bolts out of the flywheel, and Joe for his skill with the telehandler too. Nice to see the team back to full strength and in good heart. Thanks for all your work as usual.
Jack, you made my weekend. I work night shift, just came home, sat down to snack and watch you and Joe and the tank and I am nearly falling over laughing. Absolutely love Jack so much. Not his first time in heels but he is on the Prom's.
I can just imagine the health and safety man drinking a cup of tea and then chocking on seeing somebody foot ware ( very fetching by the way) and convulsing with his dinner stuck in his throat. Happy days, love your vids .😂
i just love the sound of the Foden .could go to sleep to that sound ! saw two of them at Capel one was a crane and the other had a live in wagon on the back
amazing, Jack must have had the camera the first few minutes as he showed Joe's fly was down but could not get the banner right away. Jack your a good mechanic. Joe watch your fly ! and we want more Ted action in the video's 😛
Poor Jack needed a step ladder to see that banner ... poor fella 😊 AND WHATS WITH THEM SPEAKER COULDN'T YOU FIND ANYTHING SMALLER ?? DAM that shed must rock !!
@@ThePhoenix198 Part of the military life is being able to laugh at yourself as much as others in uniform. They still perform skits and shows at Christmas dressed in drag - though I think the pc brigade has had an impact, remember going to one way back in 1983 as a young teenager and being told to 'forget' some of the language I heard 😂
I just wanted to tell you guys you guys are doing amazing job. I really love the tanks and all the stuff that you guys remodel to fix up. It’s so amazing people actually take the time to do things like that. I would really love to see World War I tank, remodeled and restored. thanks for sharing the video. Much appreciated and thank you once again.
You’re too funny 😂. Of course Jacks platforms saved the day.If i had my passport id love to go to OMH but wouldn’t be enough time to process.Perhaps next year God willing.
Really hits home how much of a mischief you can do if you've got no bloody idea what you're doing. Looking forward to seeing how it runs up. Good to see the T-34 is doing a bit of lurking in the shadows too. 😊
Any day where you get to muck around with Tanks etc is a bloody great day! You are living the dream guys. Well my dream anyway and i'm sure yours as well. 😁👍😎🇦🇺 Fun, fun and more fun.(Except for when something breaks down)lol.😱 Always a good post when the persuasion tool is required.
First day back and Jack the man diva looking glamorous as ever 😄but I do wonder if he wore those so he knew what it feels like to be at a proper blokes height 🤭
It's almost like a recovery tank should have a reel of 'Hawser' inside, perhaps with a little engine so you can decide how much ';hawser' protrudes. I imagine adjusting that could be hazardous and result in some wincing. The commander could shout "WINCING" when he wanted to driver to reduce the amount protruding.
Well I've seen it all Jack newly married and balancing on platforms , just picture the bedroom antics Ha Ha .isn't it about time Jack starts driving the tanks he's a perfect fit in drivers position .cheers mate from Australia 🇦🇺 👌 👍
Jack is enjoying those shoes way too much😂 Look how well perfectly length straps make the crane work like magic. Would a one of those white party tents with longer poles . Work to keep the rain off the engine department?
thanks to jack, we now know what it would partially look like if ginger spice helped to remove an L60. That’s one thing off the bucket list chaps. Many thanks
Love it, the weight of everything on tanks is colossal, I remember it all from 30 years ago, even using the “slave” lead to start another vehicle was a potential finger losing situation 😂
