Demolishing a trailer

[@Military-Museum-LP]

You always have the complete plan worked out and what little is missing you improvise. Plus I love the fact you are doing it alone. No other payroll checks to make out! Keep dong as you are. You work your butt of but low expenses. Bravo!

[@ericball6894]

I love how scrap yards tell you all these different gradees of steel and aluminum. Yet they all get loaded together in train cars

[@Poppi2006]

I grew up before video games/controllers, so I’m impressed by the hand/eye coordination of you younger guys. You make it look easy. Thanks for letting us view over your shoulder. I always liked being a sidewalk supervisor.

[@RickRose]

Great videography all around. Drone shots, inside-the-trailer-being-demo'd shots...The drone over the scrapyard was genius. Great music mix. Thanks for sharing.

[@JasonFiske]

Watching the drone footage of the scrapyard made me feel bad for the cranes and excavators trapped in that small area. They all want to run wild and free with Andrew. Great video. Nice work.

[@Randomname183]

I don’t comment a lot on KZbin, but I just wanted to drop a note and tell you how smart you are for wearing a respirator and ear pro. I do similar work to you and a lot of people do not protect their hearing and lungs. I can tell that you’re thinking about your long-term quality of life. Keep up the good work

[@charlesbnuu]

How talented a man must be, to make a simple old trailer scraping job, in to a interesting vídeo of 53 minutes ! Congrats Andrew, keep going with this kind of videos. =)

[@jimlyles53]

Andrew, you handle your equipment like a precision tool! Your videos are awesome.

[@TomTremayne]

I love these videos.......it's weird too cos whilst they're not really about anything they're so incredibly watchable! I love the way the second run Andrew makes to the junkyard is done. The drone footage & music makes it in to a damning indictment of modern living and then all of a sudden it's an automated microcosmic ecosystem all of it's own! I found myself watching Andrew's truck like a hawk wondering what he was gonna do in that yard.......I dunno, am I sick or weird or messed-up or does anyone else agree with me?!

[@jamminscientisttorah]

Agreed. a Although I disagree. See they are about everything. The package presented has always been " do you know this or do you know this?" I am learning. Do you want to learn?

[@peterbrown6224]

Some people don't have an hour for a video. A snappier format (10 minutes) might help. It won't convey just how good Andrew is, though.

[@tomre2769]

Getting there now :-) I prefer the longer videos.

[@173will3]

Update: he has hit a million subscribers

[@davesharp5507]

@Peter Brown that's a pretty poor reason to not appreciate someone's work. If a video is too long for some people, then those people have the option to pause and resume where they left off, later. But if the video is shorter, we who appreciate seeing almost everything that happens included in the video, don't have the option to add content that isn't there.

[@karaburress6772]

[@waiakalulu3501]

Some of the BEST EVER drone footage I ever did see. Stunning shots of the scrap yard. Lots of strong work here. Man and machine getting the job done!!!

[@brianunderwood3109]

I stumbled across your channel and have watched a few videos now. I have to say, I like the positive attitude with everything you do. I watched the septic system video where you had to redo the entire thing because of the engineer. I'm a commercial construction superintendent, and nothing drives me more crazy than paper pushers changing the play thinking it's no big deal. I hope you were compensated for your efforts. I know I would have been hit with a change order before the second go around. But even then, you kept a positive attitude and got it done. Also with the rock stairs, above and beyond what most excavators would do. Great job. Keep it up.

[@davebrittain9216]

Hey Andrew don't you just love seeing what is in the scrap yard? Growing up we had an auto wrecking yard. Always like old cars and scrap. Always interesting. Your works certainly improved the look of that place!

[@larryt8420]

That was too cool! I loved the inside the trailer shot. Also the ending music matched the drone shot beautifully! The rest was great also! Good job, keep up the good work. Hope you got paid enough for all that hard work. You are about the hardest worker I've seen in a long time. Wish I had about three hundred of you when I was still managing construction projects!!!

[@johnm.evangelis693]

I am happy you found the inside camera Andrew otherwise I would have felt bad about it, because you're doing it to get us some great footage.

[@denjhill]

When you entered that nasty trailer I swear I could smell the rot through the computer screen. Great video. Always something different and interesting.

[@jamminscientisttorah]

The work shows me that joy...the one about "doing the job right", " the one about doing the job in the best timing " and the one about " customer as participant ".

[@Grakoham]

Fantastic, just fantastic. You are having way way too much fun ! I know it's a lot of hours crammed into a 1 hour vid but looks like so much fun. Rise of the machines , movie came to mind when you wrecked the trailer. GREAT shots and great ending. You could have a career in video making alone. Great music. Andy, great job !

[@lakesideranch]

Another quality job and excellent video as usual. I admire your operating skills and your work ethic. Kudos for the time it takes to bring us these quality videos sir !! 2 thumbs up from here in Massachusetts

[@kackendall]

This may be the most cathartic video I have ever seen. You can make the most mundane task feel dramatic. Simply perfect.

[@BarnStangz]

Great video as usual Andrew. It was nice to pop this baby on the big screen and sit down for almost an hour watching your hard work pay off. And now I even feel motivated to get out my excavator and do some digging that I've been meaning to!

[@dahak972]

Andrew, I’m constantly impressed by not just your skills with the equipment, but with these videos as well. I wish you worked up in Delaware county.

[@Slikx666]

A little suggestion for people using a GoPro type camera where there's a chance of not finding it. Make a housing for it which is painted a bright colour, pink works well as not much is that colour. Reflective tape works well if using it night time. Nice work Andrew.

[@larryhamilton7630]

Andrew you hit a nitch in making simple wonderful videos. I first thought you were a spoiled rich kid, or a hot shot from Wall Street . Cause the money doesn’t add up. But you combined a simple business with excellent reality videos outstandingly done my compliments. Those Catskills are amazing only seen em once and took my 18 wheeler over em once. You really live a wonderful life.

[@ulftillberg9331]

I have now more or less binge watched almost all of your videos since I found your channel a few months ago, and the vast majority of them are amazing. I have learned so much I probably never will use in practice, but you never know when you need the knowledge how to change tracks on a skid steer. :) You should use respiratory protection the whole time when demolishing buildings and other things, it is not so long ago they stopped using asbestos, lead paint and other lethal substances when they built stuff. Live long and prosper. Greetings from Sweden

I'm pretty sure your truck's tailgate never felt that many hands on her at the same time lol

[@silentepsilon888]

I was wondering what the scrap metal price for tailgates was.

[@MERRYLANDful]

Nice

[@spudth]

Our local scrap yard has a policy Once it goes in it can't come back out. bye bye tailgate. Seriously those things are dangerous. My buddy cut off 3 fingers when he couldn't close his tailgate and tried to let it down easily.

[@dalefrasier1435]

This man is incredible. He takes each job head on, and gets it done. Andrew sometimes it bothers me that you work alone, but you do what you have to. I am retired military, and wood love to volunteer to work with you free of charge. I live in Cheyenne Wyoming, and I am willing to relocate, to work with you. I got my heavy equipment operators licences. I went to Alabama to get my license. I am 63 years young. Andrew please give what I am asking, your undivided attention. I was raised on a farm, in Colorado.

[@stanpatterson5033]

Lmao... I can just imagine the smell of the trailer prior to demolition. When I saw you reach out to grab the handle of the fridge, I yelled out "Nooooooooooo....", but you opened it anyways... Usually a fridge that has been closed and shut tight stinks to high heaven, but it actually didn't look all that bad inside... still, couldn't have smelled very pleasant.

[@arcticarrowhvacr]

I'm quite mad the VINTAGE USA MADE fridge went with it

[@zachball8820]

Looks like this is gonna be a cool video Andrew keep up your amazing work

[@ChristopherBix]

Another excellent and interesting video, as usual. Kind of sorry that someone didn't try to salvage those great louvered windows though. Don't see those much anymore.... probably with good reason I imagine. They likely leak like a sieve. And surprised to see you putting your nice GoPro (I'm assuming) at risk to get those cool interior shots. I figured you must have put them under an upside down U shaped piece or maybe an open box made out of steel or something very sturdy to keep it from being crushed. And getting that pile of junk up to the roll off dumpster bit by bit by bit reminded me of dealing with a ton of leaves, which I'm doing now. So it made me think it would have maybe saved some time to lay out a big tarp, load the pile onto it, and then just pull the tarp with the garbage on it up to the dumpster, and load it from there. Just an idea, and it might be that a tarp strong enough to handle that would cost too much. And the guy scrapping a good Explorer? I'd be suspicious he's more interested in destroying evidence. Something doesn't smell right. And.... what in the hell happened to your tailgate at the yard? ha! The bottom didn't swing open, and the top came apart instead. What the hell? Equipment malfunction or operator error? ;-) In addition to great video work and editing, not to mention amazing drone work, your choice of background music is usually very good. Not jarring and doesn't take away from the visual but adds to it. Especially like your classical style stuff with drone footage. Also a question re: your drone. I'm constantly amazed at how close you get to tree limbs and other obstructions. Does it have an automatic avoidance function? I'd be afraid a breeze would blow it into something. Also, how high did you fly it too in the closing shot. Amazing panorama. Very dramatic when it starts hovering so close to the ground and ends up way up there showing the dramatic landscape.

I thought that trailer was haunted the way the audio picked up those loud noises. That's prolly where they died, deep in the woods like that. The neighbor definitely knew more than he was saying. I would alert the authorities to take a tour with their cadaver dogs. Might solve some unsolved crimes. Can o worms, alright. He gave it away.

[@obfuscated3090]

Hoarding junk isn't for everyone. I'm a mechanic and when a vehicle goes beyond economic repair, recycling is what to do. Shovelling money into one end of a junker as the rest falls apart doesn't get people to work and does bleed money. Anyone who wants to can find vehicles to hoard, fix or flp, the trick is knowing what to choose.

Would be easier on the ground with increased leverage compared to 6’ above, never mind the stress on the trucks. Plus using the thumb to crush things first would likely be easier on the excavator.
