Rebuilding Alan's Mountain Fortress After It Was Destroyed By Fire 

Heavy D is the kind of friend everyone should strive to be.

This kinda stuff is exactly why I keep watching. Something bad happens, you all pull together to sort it out. Love you guys. Stay safe

I think this is a case of, "If you build it, they will come." Alan worked his butt off for years to get the fortress to where it is. Now, that effort has drawn others to his vision. It's amazing to see. Has to feel great to help a guy like that.

The grin on Heavy’s face was priceless! You can see he loves to help people out, you go Heavy!😍

There are genuinely deserving people like this, who's lives they've dedicated to making everyone else's around them as good as, if not better. I don't know Allan's whole story, but the guy needed a break. I had someone help me in this way when life took a swing at me. The sparks gang once again coming in clutch. Using their resources and time to make Allan's dream blossom from the ashes of his former storage facility. Great content for sure, but even better human kindness

I am genuinely impressed at the structural capacity of that roof. That’s a lot of weight up there.

It all started as a helo flight and the discovery of a building in progress on a mountain top. Curiosity got the best of Heavy D, so he ventured up there to meet the owner, and now for the rest of the story....................... So fantastic to give Alan something to look forward to, rather than to spend his time being sad over what he has lost. Fantastic move Heavy D!

Man, if I was able to afford to take a week or two off of work, I would LOVE to come help Alan rebuild the fortress. We need more Alan's in the world, despite every obstacle life has thrown at him, he always manages to come out on top and keep pushing forward!

I'm really looking forward to this. Felt so bad for Alan. So glad he has you guys as friends.

Just when I wonder where the hell have all the truly good people gone, I see this video pop -up and I was crying before l was even two-minutes into watching this! Dang it! Heavy D and Gang, you all are an amazing, giving and rare breed of people to have as friends and to have the honor of knowing via YT! I cannot thank you all enough for showing some almost forgotten, sadly missed and much-needd world-wide, "old-school love , friendship and commradrie"! Bless your hearts gentlemen for all you do everyday to enrich all of our lives! Peace to all...💜💙💜

The look in his eyes when you opened the dumpster was priceless! You guys are amazing what you do for people. Alan is such a great dude. Keep it up, I'm with you guys every video.

I’ve come to realize heavy D and his team are the realist people out there. The kind of people you want in your corner!

This whole crew inspires me every day! Dave Sparks heart is made of gold and it shows in every video! Thank you all for being such incredible examples of what the human race could aspire to be. I really hope to get to meet the whole crew someday and thank them all in person for their service to mankind. Heavy D for President 🎇🇺🇸🎆 Dave Sparks 2024 Leading America towards the Promise Land’

Dave is the definition of a true friend, can't wait to see this project completed 100x faster.

God bless you guys for being amazing friends and family helping Alan in his time of need 🙏🏻🙏🏻

It's awesome what you guys did for Alan.. That's what family does in a time of crisis. God Bless y'all and keep you safe. ♥

I wanted to see this video so bad after the last one. Alan is such a great person I am glad you guys met him. Good job Heavy D

The fact that you put that many palettes of weight on the roof of his fortress, or fourth floor as the case may be, is a testament to his skill and craftsmanship. Rock on Mr. Wizard!

I’m so glad you met Allen he’s such a good person with a huge heart and honestly there needs to be more people like him out here! Can’t wait to see what he does next!

The smile on Allen's face when he realises what HD and team have done for him is why this video is on my daily playlist.

That smile on Alans face when you opened up the role off was something else. Meeting you has changed that mans life.

It's good to see Alan smiling after that unfortunate shop fire, keep up the good work guys.

“Most challenging recovery in the history of the channel. Today we recover a man’s faith”

Man you guys are just awesome, the generosity and kindness that comes from the whole crew is genuinely remarkable, if ever any of you guys find yourself in the sunny state of Queensland Australia I would be honored to pay some of that back, been in transport most of my life ill get all of you a trip in a Bdouble or road train as driver or passenger cheers guys from the land down under. Mark

Dave I want you to know that you’re making a 75-year-old man cry you guys are so awesome I love you and I love your crew so much I can’t seem to get enough of your videos because they make me feel good and make me forget about my problems. You truly are an angel.

Man. What a feel good Sunday across RU-vid! Ed gets the Golden Nugget finally, Rudy from MORR gets his brother his dream truck, and this team of animals moved up The Wizard's building schedule by at least several months...love all you guys! You are a true inspiration, keep it up! This is more of what the world needs to see, and more people need to follow in your footsteps.

Geez after watching the reveal of the Golden Nugget to Ed which made me realize how many good people are out there now I'm watching your guys's video and it seems more than just a coincidence but once again I'm blown away at how many kind-hearted individuals are out there what a blessing for Alan to be a part of the crew God bless you guys for what you do

One thing I truly love about these guys is when someone in the crew is down and out they drop EVERYTHING to b able to help that person out ontop of all the extra stuff he dose for everyone that works for him and are true friend to him and u can tell he is doing it from a place of love, appreciation, and bc I think he really just likes to do it and brings him joy to b able to help people out like this

You guys rock, you’re the best friends any man could ever have and Alan is well deserving 🇺🇸

Love the support you guys are providing for Alan, that's family right there

i never seen Alan smile so much and u can see in his eyes how relieved and excited he is. Im really glad yall are there for one another. its a blessing to see. If we all lived like u guys the world would be a better place for sure. God bless yall.

I just love you guys! Your stories are fascinating, your filming is absolutely beyond incredible, but more importantly, you all are restoring faith in humanity. Thank you for all you do, and for taking us along for an adventurous heartfelt ride.

YES YES YES! I love it man. This is what a society should be, helping each orher out. Man, what a awesome place this could be if we all living for this maxim.

The look of wonder and joy in Alan’s eyes when he saw the materials was heart warming. Y’all are good dudes.

Heavy D has always been a amazing human. We should all strive to have a portion of his kindness.

Allan is such an incredible addition to the team, hard workers who know what they're doing like him are an extremely rare breed. The same way that Heavy D is an extremely rare breed. Normally people who are as successful as he is don't have the time or the compassion to help people the way Dave does. Truly a great group of guys all the way around. Thank you guys for all that you do, and God bless from Florida.

Heavy D, I have to say many of “your” adventures and journeys bring good to those that need it. I started following you after your infamous race at Cletus’s. From your personal reflection in “the time out corner” to now, I have watched them all. It takes a special kind of guy to say they were wrong, and you are that guy. From helping the Wizard to helping at Cerro Gordo, you and your extended family are the folks that show that there is still good out there. Thanks Dave for making humanity feel and be better.

It’s clear to see you’ve got a heart big as all outdoors Dave… and All the good that can be done through your kind heart is immeasurable!!! A giving heart paired up with enormous resources equals projects like this and so much more!! The 🧙‍♂️ wizard is happy so magic 🪄 will happen!! ❤️!!! Ty for being such a good friend to someone in need

Love how Alan was smiling and happy about the cinderblocks and then offended by the cherry pepsi. Absolutely hilarious.

That floor is stronger than any relationship ive ever had

Y'all are so loving and inspiring. I can't think of anyone that gives so much. You are such great examples of the joy of service. Thank you for all you do and for bringing us all along. 👍

"What is a man who achieves Great Heights of success if he does not reach over and offer his brother a strong hand up to achieve his life goals as well." Nothing, but Heavy D and Diesel Dave and crew are showing "What a Man Is." Daniel Alexander Cannon

Alan's "God bless everybody" has to be one of the most heartfelt thanks I have ever heard. You can tell he didn't just rattle that saying off, he meant every word. We need more people like him around.

Dave, I'm not the type of guy that likes to dish out compliments or praises, but you and your guys are really to be admired. I wish I could have been there to help you all. You're a man after my own heart.. Franz Ludick, South Africa.

Dave has been inspiring to me beyond words. I'm a young guy in my 20's who is lost and without purpose, desperately searching for a goal. After watching this channel for awhile, you've motivated me to act instead of want. I have goals now, motivated by the level of grace and compassion you give the people around you, and how you treat the land as your backyard. God bless you and your crew, you are doing only what I can describe as holy work. Keep inspiring those like me to take TODAY into their own hands, not tomorrow

vids like this can turn around my day and make me uncontrollably smile for hours. keep on doing good guys.

This is why y’all are my favorite channel just down to earth humble kind and there for people when they need the help god bless you guys

Helping Alen is the reason I've subscribed and religiously now watch Heavy D ... Allen is a Gem for you 2 give him a job and help him from goodness in ur heart says absolutely everything!!!! I tell everyone 2 subscribe 2 you because of ur actions when you didn't have 2 and it cost you!! Forever a fan

To have family like you, beyond a blessing. Making a grown man cry.

I'm excited to see Allen's mountain top house fully finished. I've always wanted to build my own home just like this, and make everything sustainable, with all food, and electric/ off the grid type builds.

When I first watching this channel, I thought "just another rich guy playing with his expensive toys". after a year or so, I've come to realize just how much good you do for others. Your unselvish sharing is nothing short of wonderful! Keep up the wonderful work! You deserve a medal!

The things you all do to help people is just incredible. This one made me cry because what you guys did here is truly life changing for Alan and in the comments I see for other people too. We do need more of these kind of moments happening in life with each other for that is the only way we can get through life is together, helping each other. 🙏🏼♥️🥰

You guys have the biggest heart and generosity that help out where you can. I know deep inside Allen is very excited and very thankful I am probably after everybody left he probably cried a little bit but that’s OK. It’s good to see people with this type of platform help out other people In need, keep up the good work love watching a Videos

I noticed two types of smiles, first was Alan's smile of appreciation followed by Dave's smile of helping a friend. Most excellent.

I think Allen was meant to come into all your lives, he just makes things brighter and he's such a good soul and he deserves some decent friends around him, who won't let him face the tough times alone. Thank you for doing this for him, I can't imagine how hard it is to watch your dreams go up in smoke literally. You're a God send Dave, you're the kinda person we should all aspire to be! ❤

I agree that Dave is a great friend. what he's doing for his friend Alan is really unusual and unheard of. my hat is off to you Dave.

You can tell Dave so appreciates what he's achieved in life to date, but what he appreciates even more is the ability it's given him to help others. Thanks Dave your an inspiration and so are your crew.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. The current generation of Youth desperately needs positive role models like the Heavy D team. What these guys are doing...and demonstrating....is more important than most people realise.

Hey i just want to say Alan is such an amazing human and with his knowledge and drive what an addition to the already amazing team.... And is nobody going to talk about how impressive that concrete floor is that alan made himself.... Big construction companies would have failed that load bearing thats for certain..!!!!! Amazing to see everyone pulling together to help a friend when in need.

Dang HeavyD….your team’s compassion and generosity have no limits. I know what it feels like to be able to help others and see the good and inspiration it brings to all. America as a nation had this ability in spades during the tough years, but it has sadly eroded somewhat. I hope more people see you and your team as an example of what good stewardship and caring for our fellow men, women and habitat can do to revive our history of a “can do” nation. From one rotor head to another, pull pitch and climb…..

Wow this is what we need more of! There are so many wealthy people out there now that could be helping the less fortunate. There are people that really work hard but cant get a break and takes everything they make to barely support there families. Thank you Heavy D and the crew for what yall do.

Heavy D and friends are salt of the earth sort of people. It's heart-warming to see such effort go into helping a friend out. Thank all of you for taking the time to make such top-flight content. Cheers!

The smile on his face was priceless bro you know no one's ever done anything like that for him so that touches his heart good job boss good job

What a great friend(s) you guys are. Great to see in this day and age

I’m no engineer by a long shot but that is a lot of weight especially the double stacked ones. Besides that I would love to see that place finished

Nothing better than to see successful entrepreneurs who actually care about their employees (and friends/family).

You guys are absolutely amazing. Wishing Al all the best !!

Mad RESPECT for Alan. Good luck.

You guys are just such good people it’s pretty awesome that you always help people and put people in front of you

Hey Heavy what you and your crew are doing for Allen is just amazing. You have restored my faith in mankind. This is one of the greatest acts of kindness I've every seen in my 73 years of life. You and your crew are beyond any words to express my feelings. You are truly a hero.

You’re such a kind friend to not only go out of your way and help him clean but then brought him more then enough material to rebuild and build extra. Hats off to you man!

I could literally watch you all’s adventures all day! I found Heavy D through AWP and what both of these channels do is amaze! Even for a little southern girl like myself! Keep giving us the raw material guys!!

Now THIS is a follow up video. The way you guys look out for each other, no matter at what cost, that's why I keep coming back here.

Alan is such a down to earth, easy going good guy. Glad to see his buddies helping him out. Good luck on getting things back on track.

Honestly, it's people like you that restores my faith in humanity. In these uncertain times, when we see, hear, and feel our country and humanity slipping thru our fingers... knowing that we may never see the good ole days again. At least people like all of you still exist in the world brings hope!!! Alan, you're a good guy and it's about time good things come your way. God works in mysterious ways, all we have to do is live by his word and we'll be blessed. 🙏🏼❤️

You gotta love the passion Alan puts out there when he talks about converting the tipper float to a flat bed float with sides for the 10 wheeler and then his personal projects he glows with pride. I honestly think that Alan is a pure honest hard worker everyone knows he puts his 110% to all the jobs he takes on and deserves all he receives in life enjoy 😉 and stay good 👍.

Seeing Alan smile is worth it all. Do good, Help others. Seeing this imprinted in Heavy D and the entire crew is amazing. Giving back is the very best we can strive to do. Thanks guys .

well just being subscribed here i have to say this is the most convenient environment i`ve been a long time ago so thumbs up and keep on goin and make us people be proud of your work so we can share this expierence to other in struggle folks ladies and gentleman i appreciate it greetings from an dedicated forklift truck driver working at BMW industries Germany/Southeast Bavaria 🥰😍🤩

I love how much heavy d helps his family out the amount of work, dedication, money, heart, sweat and tears he puts in is truly amazing his team is amazing good job guys I'm happy that heavy d and his team are helping him get back on his feet and even better now he can finish his building

You guys are what America represents . Loving hard working generous men . I love it

Bless you Dave and your team. This brought a tear to my eye. That really is such a kind and wonderful thing to do. Love Alan's place and his dream. Its a wonderful project he has, and will be an awesome home! I was mortified to see his workshop gone to the fire. Having gone through two fires my self, and two floods, I know how heart wrenching an experience it is to loose so much. I still haven't come completely back from it! It can take years! Could do with you guys help over here! lol... a bit too far regrettably! Keep up the good work. Love what you do. Love, light and peace. Erik.

I am impressed with the amount of weight that roof can handle!!!

What a team, Heavy and all his guys should be very proud a massive effort and always with a laugh 👌

Thanks Heavy D for being such an awesome friend to the Wizard. You are an inspiration on how to turn a negative situation into a positive. God bless you! 👍😄👍😄👍

The look on Alan’s face just before you showed him what was in the truck, and then after you told him and showed him what you brought was priceless…. I don’t think anyone has ever seen such a happy wizard…

Way back in the past in some communities, when someone's house or barn would burn down, the community would come together to rebuild. Thank you for bringing that back.

07:44 that is a face that is so suprised and thankful, it said everything and he deserves it for being such a nice guy. The diesel bros and team are amazing people and I would love to know a group of such generous helpful people.

As someone who has also had their life's work torn away from them several time I can honestly say this is an amazing sight and a very awesome thing you did Dave.

Heaven has a new seat ready with all the controls for when the time comes - name tag says "Heavy D Sparks". In troubled times people are either light carriers or the light itself - this guy IS one of the lights. Heart warming stuff.

Really are a great bunch of ppl I’m glad to see everyone helping and can’t imagine being Allen

Heavy D,is a angel on earth, helping Alan,and his vision for his compound.

Dave, you and your team have the BIGGEST hearts I have ever seen. I was hoping for you to help him expedite his build. I can’t wait until this is finished. I didn’t have hope that it would get finished in his lifetime because it’s such a huge project and he was by himself. You guys are amazing people, and your family and friends are all incredibly blessed to have you in their lives. God bless y’all! ❤️🤗🙏

Heavy D and the crew, you guys are simply awesome human beings. This sort of compassion mixed with the story, logistics, cinemaphotography and character you all bring is addictive to watch! A piece of that compassion may even be spreading into the hearts of those of us who watch. Be proud guys, be very proud.

To see his reaction was priceless! Everything happens for a reason and God definitely had a plan set forth! I'm sorry those happened to you Allan but all this couldn't have happened to a better person! You deserve all the materials to get you back on your feet and make your dream come true finally! We love you!!

Why don't you continue to help him build cuz at this rate he's not gonna live to see it done or at least enjoy it. You've got the man power, the equipment, and the money to help him finish it so he can actually enjoy it before he dies.

"The wind would take Al straight to the planet he came from". A perfect description of Al from what I've seen 🤣. He's a truly unique and wonderful sort of character. So great he's got you guys to help do this. He can't ever replace the personal stuff but supercharging this whole build and supplying so much equipment and gear hopefully will dull that pain a bit. Good on you guys 👍. I just got to the part where Al saw what you'd brought and seeing that smile and happy grateful look, hearing him "wow", a few times, a "holy moly", an "aw thanks" an ", "that's amazing?" and gave Dave a grateful wizard hug and actually looking happy brought a tears to my eyes. So nice to see him happy about something after so many setbacks and a chance to actually get somewhere on this very long term job. See, you did get some emotion out of him lol. Loved that satisfied, warm and fuzzy smile on Dave as he brought the Tellehammer over too. Thank heavens you lent him the Sany excavator to make that road better or you'd have had to do that before you could get all this gear up there relatively easily. Sorry this might seem muddled but I pause and type as I watch or I'll forget. Sorry about the length too but I really feel for Al after all the work he's put into this awesome project over so very long along with such horrible setbacks, you guys are awesome 🥇.

What a blessing you are to your friends! You and your whole crew give folks like us hope... it's good to see there are still good people out there, willing to go out of their way to help another. If I lived near you, I'd bake you a cake!

The perceverance, endurance, commitment, relentlessness and enthusiasm shown in these 'Alan's stories' videos, shows that there are times when pure emotion, dedication, friendship and dexterity to carry on regardless are second to none. I applaud each and every one of the team for doing what you do. Keep on being real.

This was great to see, HeavyD! Your friends are blessed, indeed. Allen 'The Wizard' is such a lovely guy, and has been a wonderful addition to your team and channel (and I'm enjoying his own channel too!) We would all get by with a little help from our friends if we all had friends like HeavyD! Much love from Australia 🇦🇺❤️🇺🇸

Dave, you are one great dude. Awesome crew full of hard workers too.
