my inspiration to the late fred dibnah his work climbing chimneys inspired me not to have fear of heights i have since painted rollercoasters with only a harness due to health and safety back in 80s i used to use ropes tied to tracks or frame work even now myself at 54 still still have no fear of heights and yes i still paint rollercoasters R.I.P fred

What were all the chimneys originally used for?

To exhaust the soot from the steam engines which powered the mills

After watching so many of his videos I'm very curious as to why there's so many chimneys in england and why they need to be demolished!?!?!
@I-T-S-M-EАй бұрын
Victorian Britain used steam to power the factories.the chimneys exhausted the soot. No longer needed and I guess cost of upkeep.
@JB-ef7ksАй бұрын
@@I-T-S-M-E thank you for the answer! I can't even imagine how dark, dirty and soot filled the sky would've been back then!! Especially considering England in general is mostly always dark and gloomy from overcast skies, fog and rain in general!! Definitely couldn't live there currently let alone back then considering I'm Florida native born n raised and hate having several days like that here even though my ancestors are from England mostly. My last name is Benefield which I'm told is posh and means bean farmer but don't know from what area of England my ancestors emigrated from sadly. I know that I'm a mix of English firstly but also Welsh, Scottish, Irish, French, German and 3 different tribes of Native American from the southeast of North America mostly Florida and Georgia! If you know anything about Benefields please let me know. Thanks again and 🥂
