Dis is amazing!
I gotta try dis!

Andrew Camarata is putting a giant steel roof on his shipping container castle/workshop. 41:45 he explains that it's hard to slip off the metal roof right before it starts snowing. I believe him but at the same time, how hard would it be to have a rope?

Posting him is almost cheating in this thread.


But, seriously though. He does listen to the comments sometimes and improve. In that video alone you see him going from trying to do something he shouldn't, because he stopped to read the manual, to complaining that commenters get on his rear end for lift rigging, to swapping out that rigging for something better.

He was wearing at least some eye protection a bunch in that vid. I wasn't putting effort into tracking times ot anything, but getting a non-glasses wearer to put on eye protection is hard as gently caress so it's nice to see he's wearing it at least sometimes. If you wear glasses normally you've always got at least inadequate protection on, or prescription safety glasses you just wear all day, so it's easier on us. Prescription safety glasses are way, way more comfortable than the non-adjustable garbage btw. You can get adjustable non-prescription glasses and they're soooo much more comfortable but entirely too hard to find. They should be the default for anybody but site visitors.

I think the best example of him listening to the comment section was when his dog, Levi, jumped off and missed the dock. He seemingly nearly drowned under the dock. It was a really bad scene. We tore him apart in the comment section. The next watercraft video Levi was outfitted with a life vest/lift harness so he could be lifted on and off the boat, and float if something hosed up.

Every dead animal has a bad smell, but dead sea turtles are among the worst I’ve ever experienced.

We peeled the dead turtle open a little more so the vultures could have easy access and do their foul deeds. This was a fairly large loggerhead (shell dimensions: 3ft long, 2ft across), and there wasn’t much more than peeling shell and disorganized bones left when we came back 2 days later.

Did you keep the bones

I watched his DOT stop video... so many mistakes, he's skating by on luck.
1. Took the lug nuts off before loosening the wedges
2. Grabbed the wedges with no regard for the pressure behind them
3. Took a grinder to the bead when he couldn't get it over the lip of the rim
4. "Fixed" a rotten exhaust with a sleeve clamp
5. Thought that an 8-year old fire extinguisher that had never been inspected and had a plastic valve was fine, complained about having to buy a new one
6. Filling a newly-mounted tire on a multi-piece wheel without a cage, and standing next to it

The list goes on and on. The guy's super-motivated and clearly smart and talented, but he needs to learn a little more about operating/repairing the equipment he's using.

You're safe here.

This looped video reminded me of a Mayday! episode where the plane got into trouble and a particular warning alarm rang for so long that it just timed out as no-one could imagine a plane having that issue for so long and not having crashed.

I can't remember which incident it was, though.

"So you want to understand an aircraft carrier? Well, just imagine that its a busy day, and you shrink San Francisco Airport to only one short runway and one ramp and gate. Make planes take off and land at the same time, at half the present time interval, rock the runway from side to side, and require that everyone who leaves in the morning returns that same day. Make sure the equipment is so close to the edge of the envelope that its fragile. Then turn off the radar to avoid detection, impose strict controls on radios, fuel the aircraft in place with their engines running, put an enemy in the air, and scatter live bombs and rockets around. Now wet the whole thing down with salt water and oil, and man it with 20-year-olds, half of whom have never seen an airplane close-up. Oh, and by the way, try not to kill anyone."
