emtbrat21 yes, 'struth, but the American show "Dirty Jobs" was much more intentionally nasty/graphic/gag-inducing, and the host Mike Rowe seemed to revel in the muck a bit more... Although, you CAN see our Baldrick bathing in a tub of bovine blood and guts if you watch his series "Gods and Monsters"... It's well gnarly, yeah?
I love this guy's smart yet relaxed style! You may like Terry Jones! I really like most his stuff ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iO7YZr1U6jU.html
The segment on the grain Toni was talking about the grain and how they moved it with a hose. The person said if you didn't pay attention, you could be sucked under the grain like and undertow had got you. My husband's uncle was driving a bulldozer in a rock chamber of the phosphate plant he worked in when someone opened a valve to release some rock , they did not let my hubby's uncle know. He was caught in the falling rock and was crushed to death by the rock coming in on top of the bulldozer.
Damn that asphalt pounding is giving me flashbacks. I've had to do that before on highway survey work. But only because our tamping machine broke and we didnt have time to get it fixed.. It was only for a day on small boreholes. I cant imagine doing it day in and day out to build an entire road.
The water carriers would have been much stronger & tougher then Tony. But it is good to experience earlier people's hardships to appreciate how good we have it now.
I laughed when she pulled up in the car next to him. And then he got fined for cussing. I probably would have had to declare bankruptcy just for cussing the first day.
You're kidding that you can get fined for swearing in public right? h wait, this is the UK we're talking about, of course they'd fine you for that. They fine you for not having a tv licence. Figures they'd make one to swear in public.
@@mariawhite7337 The UK and in fact most of Europe is much freer than the US when it comes to these law. Its about 30 place higher on the Freedom Index than the US.
@@Ukraineaissance2014 tell that to me again after I get a concealed carry permit and can swear in public. Edit: you have to ask yourself who is making the 'freedom index' and ask if they are biased. Cause last time I checked it places like Cuba was very high on that list.
@@mariawhite7337 1.We can swear in public dumb fuck, its a program about history and historical laws..... 2.Cuba isnt listed on the index, so you just made that up... Come back to me when you can cross the road without being arrested, drink at 18, not go bankrupt from visiting the hospital, be conscripted into the army or be murdered by the state and dont have the largest prison population in the world
Done the asphalt laying too, only for a few weeks, at least I had decent boots, and we only had to use the tamping rod at the edges and corners where the road roller couldn't reach. I didn't get a lot of pay for doing that job either.
much respect to tony. his biggest fear has to be heights. he can work in shit/urine and he wont show fear like he does when he has to go above the side walk level. way to go dude. you rock sir.
When my dad was in vocational college in the late '70s he had to review a study that found 50% of non smoking elevator agents, and 100% of smoking agents had emphasima.
Some of the jobs around the docks in the East End of London are described by author Jennifer Worth, who worked as a midwife there in the late 1950's. This film doesn't even go into the squalid, crowded conditions the dock workers and their families lived in.
In southern California, Escondido area, there was an enormous open field adjacent the river bed, where forms were laid out on ground, & adobe clay bricks were made. Same thing. So Cal sun dried it. Idk if it was fired, but you'd see 100 people of all ages, working there .
It's hard to imagine how regular people lived in these times. They had it so hard, real work. In pain, exaused. They worked for everything they got. It makes u really think. How people now complain about drive thru, first world problems. Social media, clothes styles. These days everyone complains and has something to say. I'd like to put them people in these types of situations. See how they fair. Coming back to the 21 centery, they'd learn to b more humble and appreciate what they have. It could always b worse
How did one work the hook ladder back down to the ground? At 13:50 what is the prominent sort of conical shaped building? It appears in a lot of London filmed videos.
It's called The Gherkin because it's sort of pickle-shaped, but it's officially called 30 St Mary Axe. (London street names, eh?) It replaced the old Baltic Exchange that was damaged by an IRA bombing 20 years ago. The developers were going to built it twice as high (it's nearly 600 feet), but then realized it was on a Heathrow flight path. Anyway, it's a commercial building with offices for lots of corporations with money. And there's a restaurant at the top, of course.
Lol, "asphalt"... It sounds weird every time they say it, but I guess the English pronunciation of it as "ash-felt" is no sillier or stranger than our American "ass-fault"... Neither one fits the spelling.
I think he even thinks that about himself sometimes yeah he still willing to try which always an actor I guess LOL once a performer always a performer❤
