The Question is will the haul road hold up Its not looking good Land Bridge Project!

[@duaneleeth]

I still cant understand why i enjoy watching people move dirt around but something keeps me coming back to each video. Keep it up!

[@MatthewBerginGarage]

I'm the same way and I've been like that since I was a small boy. I'm now an old man.

[@jeb6653]

It is the KID in all of us who cant do in any more. I love watching all the videos. Stay safe and have fun . AZ

[@billvandorn5332]

I think our human nature is to be on a constant search for information to learn and grow. There are a lot of mathematical equations with the various laws of physics etc. Which are like equations and puzzles that tantalize the synopsis in our brains tagging the endorphins of the feel good chemicals... It's also a way to relax to avoid any resemblance of anxieties or stress that might be associated with our own responsibilities... Regardless, at least it's healthy and not abusive and becomes a win-win.

[@charlessingleman3725]

Because we all had Tonka construction equipment in our youth and now living the dream through Dirt Perfect. Thanks Dirt Perfect.

[@bret0044]

Can’t understand why I get off work (trades). And then watch shows about people working. 😂

[@laceitup1]

I don't know why you don't have a million subscribers yet! You are one of the top 3 channels I watch religiously! Love you and Aaron together and Jerry when he comes out of retirement. I've learned alot about moving dirt and laying tile since watching your channel. Not that I will ever use it but it's some fun entertainment! So thanks Mike!

[@michaelmclinn5914]

Mike has a stalker. Lol. Put the lotion in the basket. 😅 sorry I couldn't resist.

[@laceitup1]

Go away!🙄

[@steveallison7940]

Kudos my man. 30 years equipment operator here, you run a very clean & organized site. 💪🏻

[@lynnlutjen3819]

Looks like Farmer Chris is going to have a super highway between his fields. Looking totally Dirt Perfect 👍👍👍👍

[@dansbrown1313]

Thanks Mike, watching you and Aaron working together with mutual respect and humor is a wonderful thing.

[@FASDND]

watching someone move dirt, it's relaxing.

[@joebacarella2829]

Well, the road held up, that`s a whole lot of dirt moved, thanks for taking us along.

[@Wolf-hd9ke]

On this freezing rain and snowy morning WATCHING MIKE AND AARON brings a little WARMTH into my room!!! Aaahhh. In S.IL right in the heart of the worst of what will be known as "The Ice Storm of '25". I can hear the old timers now... "Yep, there was freezin' rain 3/4 of a inch thick and just south down the road a piece, well fifty or a hunert miles or so there was a tornady and 🌩 and freezin' lightnin. I kid you not!"

[@warrenmichael918]

So. IL here myself. Just N of Mt. Vernon and i hope it doesnt get too bad, weve been lucky so far with just a few inches of snow and some decent sleet n ice on top of it so far.

[@maxjones9139]

Love watching work in better weather as the blizzard starts in ne Kansas. The ice has been brutal! Be safe everyone!

[@frrapp2366]

not so bad here in n OK but still slick be safe back

[@RudyFisher]

Mike, there’s a little screw on the side of the horn if you turn it in and out and honked the horn till you get the right tone, you can change the tone of a horn on any vehicle

[@DirtPerfect]

👍

[@billvandorn5332]

I forgot all about that screw! You're absolutely correct and a great suggestion!

[@kenore4003]

Still think they need to put a real honker on the equipment instead of the pathetic little apologetic "Oh excuse me , if its not too much trouble here's a little beep."

[@benritchsmith]

@@kenore4003hahaha!

[@jamesjimjames1]

Another tough day and a lot of good work done, and one big step towards completion

[@cyndikarp3368]

Looking good, getting much closer. This time you parked piles of dirt in Farmer Chris way.

[@AlanMalcolm-l8v]

We can watch the snow and ice in Derby around the fourth of july! the history channel!

[@williambasinger5859]

If your worried about breaking through the crust there is a thing called bridge mats

[@Lwplantltd]

That last 1/4 tank goes a lot quicker than the the 1st 1/4 We’ve all been there,

[@bfcmik]

Lots of good dirt hauling there.

[@rhondasweeney7271]

Almost having this job done. It is looking awesome. Aaron, Mike , thank you for sharing 👌 😊

[@duaneayers6117]

Indiana definitely has plenty of borrowed pits & washouts when a person needs them. Hoosiers will not put trash in them.

[@paulprigge1209]

The strength of that thumb is amazing.

[@stevenhogan8476]

I can’t help thinking how much productivity farmer Chris gains from the multitude of projects you and Aaron have completed for him. I know he appreciates it and as a viewer I appreciate you guys! Always entertaining!!!

[@Denis-tu1pd]

The reason why i watch b is they are fun to watch and how dp explains what they are doing.

[@Moose-rq8gv]

Great videos lots of different things instead of just loading or just knocking trees down love the content

[@BennHerr]

More excellent MBTS camera work!

[@ep9360]

I concur with the Duane leeth. I'm surprised at watching so much dirt being moved around. It's definitely an art form. I can't wait for another trip to an Indiana corn field, albeit virtually. Hope you guyz are ready for the coming snow storm in 2025. Be safe , God bless.

[@mattankrom524]

You got this guys. I'm a farmer/truck driver. I'd wait an extra day or 2 for ya. Love watching you guys do what you do.

[@brucehuff5566]

That is looking very nice. You don't get enough credit on your project management. Keeping it all being productive and not shooting yourself in the foot. Stay safe.

[@brettbull5238]

That was great camera work, work on the table. Very much appreciated as always

[@Nicholaskleyn]

Good morning dirt perfect. Looking forward to watching another good video. Thanks for the great entertainment this past year. Keep up the good work.

[@terryrogers1025]

Looking good gentlemen, you’ve got both the barrow pit and bridge site looking nicely groomed. Looks like the bridge is compacting well. Thanks for the update, enjoyed watching.

[@MelvinLochner]

Ya know, I’ve been moving dirt for 54 years now and I still enjoy your videos. I see some things I would do differently like on your land bridge project I’d had Jerry on the dozer spreading the dirt as you was hauling. But you did it with just you two, kudos 😊

[@CAT_M131]

I don' under stand why Aaron can't hauling dirt and Mike spreading it with the dozer they save time at the same🤔

[@laceitup1]

I'm thinking Jerry doesn't want to work all the time anymore and they just finished that huge pond where Jerry worked everyday. He may need a rest!

[@RAYAR54]

LD18 does it solo quite often does a lot in the run of a day. He also often goes from sun up 'til sun set.

[@johnmarshall9065]

Here in Akron Ohio we are in a sweet spot - no ice storm as in Kansas and away from the lake effect snow off of Lake Erie. Got a little buzz going and listening to Mike's story. Great video.

[@Vickie-Bligh]

Making excellent progress. I had to laugh when you said that you told Chris he could start harvesting the far field...and you left all the equipment in the way. It's looking good, Mike. Aaron is really becoming a strong equipment operator. You've been a good teacher. Thanks for sharing.

[@tonycole613]

DP you were mighty blessed to have Noel in the woods to be able to get that dirt. I’d never thought there was that much dirt or seen it from the beginning to where you hauled out awesome job man you and the man behind the scenes. Do good work together. God bless stay safe looking for a prosperous bigger new year.

[@leolarocque-v5v]

Like the video Guy's it was a very Good Day at work Mike and Aaron .

[@allensharlow7763]

That’s been a lot more work on that road for Farmer Chris than I expected, but your doing a great job on it guys 👌👌😎😎🍮🍮🙏🙏

[@davidcolesr.8628]

That’s some beautiful material at 16:50 in the video

[@TonyBaroni]

That project turned into a lot more than it looked like it was going to be. If Farmer Chris is footing the bill for this, it's going to taking many a ear of corn to gnaw down that bill.

[@roadrunner681]

yall stay safe neighbors, your right in the worst spot for ice in hoosierland

[@UK-Expat-in-USA]

The land bridge is getting closer in height and width, what I find interesting is how high your benches are where your digging dirt from. That provides some reference to Pond Dam you just finished and how deep you would have gone, if the soil was coming from a small area. Aaron & Mike, thank you for another good video!

[@kevinkenyon7045]

Mike and Aaron another good day of work! Thanks for sharing! Kevin

[@JayMcGinness574]

Farmer Chris is lucky to have a friend to make that happen for him. Land Bridge looks sweet!

[@dougkolb3706]

" The Great Ice Storm of 25 ". Mike and Aaron in short sleeves while Louisville got 3" of snow in 2 hours and a ton more on the way before it switches over to Ice. Can't wait to see the winter shop projects you and MBTS did during this Snow/Ice storm

[@michaelmullins1290]

Glad that camera didn't get lost or even broken. It's definitely coming together nicely.

[@whatdoyouthinktodd]

Ol A A ron is doing a great job with that camera work. He deserves a raise 💰💰💰

[@johnsmith-xr6qy]

The "clean up" gives a good mix of the soil so your road should be a good one. You guys make a good back up team for Farmer Chris. I think he knows it!

[@fransinyard891]

Good morning sunshines! Great video! Much love and respect from Henderson Ga USA

[@ronaldheit196]

Well Mike, I definitely enjoyed this episode as usual and gave it a double thumbs up. That flat area you'll leaving behind will be an awesome spot for the property owner to set up as an "in the woods" camping spot fot him and his young boys. Should be some Deer in there in the fall with rabbits and squirrels year round. Just leave the haul road passable for vehicles and he's got himself a nice private camping spot.

[@bernardsteffen2788]

Great Camerana keeps it interesting.

[@guido2110]

Looking good, bigger job than I thought from the beginning.

[@scottleeswood-jones9978]

It's amazing how you always find just enough dirt. Perfect!

[@davidseabolt6605]

Great video Thanks be careful with the snow and ice Post some shots of the storm for us in the south

[@rockman531]

Howdy Mr. Dirt, Looking real good! FC should be very happy! Thumbs up! Stay safe. Jim

[@jenniffer9034]

Good morning you two! Awesome videos today!

[@philmckinney5837]

Well guys we know how far behind you are on your videos as its blizzard time now and y'all still in short sleeves but still great Videos

[@GregoryYancer-on2ns]

Nice day's work. The marshmallow road is holding up. MBTS ain't getting too close to trees with his new haul truck!!😊

[@randycrager4074]

When you call it a "Borrow Pit", that means you eventually plan to put what was taken back in its place! For Duane just below, I've been coming back for 4 years now and I agree but I've been involved in Mikes field for many years and I love it.

[@glennfryer1539]

Never miss an episode UK

[@tomswindler64]

Nice job,not to bad for bunch of dirt pushers.LOL.good little video.just keep on doing what you do best.👍👍👍😎😎😎

[@coldwarkid6611]

I love it that Hyundai loans you cool machines for us to watch. This takes the place of my childhood obsession with Tonka Toys😊

[@dennis2376]

Any job you do for Farmer Chris you are it is always a race. :) Thank you and have a wonderful week.

[@Damoinion]

Interesting approach to the pumping haul road situation. Absolutely shows your level of experience.

[@weekendwarriorwade]

48:48 . Good thing MBTS is wearing a hat. We wouldnt be able to see him other than the brim of his hat.. :)

[@DixieBourne]

Mike my dear friend I enjoy watching your videos my family knows better than to call me when I am watching you.wishing you a wonderful day.

[@DirtPerfect]

lol thanks

[@arnoldromppai5395]

When i worked for local paper mill in the wood land division in far away camps. When we had to get the pulp truck across a low area to get 2 to 300 cords of pulp out. The koring bunchers would cut junk unmarkatable timber and lay it down like A quarteroid road and the D7 or D8 cut fill out of the banks to cap it off. Big koring fellow forwarders. Koring 3 man slashers, koring de-limbers were back an forth on the roads to to get to the portable bush shops for repair an service. Trucks loaded 180,000lbs back an forth 2 shifts a day. The roads held solid. Grader would trim them up once a week. But when having to build roads across swomps them cut areas were left until freeze up and D7 an 8 would build winter roads across useing snow and brush. The roads are built 300' wide so trucks an machines wouldnt brake the ground an machine, truck an ground would be less likly to roll over ground an all. But come brake up in the spring was long hours a day and weekend to get the last 1000 cords across that was still road side..

[@dano9215]

Mr. Dirt, you sure know your way around an excavator, my friend. I am always amazed at your skill. Just saying.

[@pattucker612]

Another good video, we’ll see you on the next one

[@tommymann69]

Nice to have heated equipment in 20 degrees weather down south this week lower Alabama Gulf Coast 😮😮😮😮😮

[@lowellstevenson9162]

Job is looking good can't wait for the finish 😊

[@charlessingleman3725]

850 Jinormus and the 850 mini. Two hard workers.

[@everestyeti]

Aaron needs to clean his truckm the windows and roof are really dirty. 🤣😂 Coming along nicely. 👍

[@michaeldurling793]

I'm impressed by what two guy's and some good equipment can accomplish in a short time.

[@steveleverett300]

Another great video. Best channel on KZbin ❤❤

[@TimmyMoza]

Great video shots this one… loved the new angles and live shots…. Yall really upping yer production game…. Oh and the land bridge is nice too… ;)

[@kevinmurray7135]

Does Matt know that you were you cut all the dirt out back in that spot would be a nice hideaway in the corn field for just getting away from everything and kick back and enjoy the peace and quiet i think just a thought cause it’s really nice what you guys have done to make one heck of road for access 👍👍😎🇺🇸 NY

[@wayneketter4768]

Awesome video guys, as usual. Keep us updated on your snow situation. Sooner than later, Mr. History channel. Stay safe and warm.

[@ronneidert]

18:35, great camera shots Aaron!

[@UncleMelB]

Should make the beavers happy.

[@justinwiatrek1864]

I am genuinely invested in the abrasion test results. It may take me another five years of watching the History Channel, but I will be here until the end to figure out which wears out first: the 850J exhaust stack or the spoon!

[@MrGhostLt]

Thanks for another great video.

[@maxobara1496]

Lots of piles!! Great work, nice to see the shop truck in action!!💪🤗🇺🇸

[@BrianIrons-v3e]

Mike have Aaron weld on a receiver hitch on the back of both 850 dozers that way you can get thunder where you need it and don't even say you never bought the Case Captain done told on you demo dozer doesn't get parked clear in the back of shed for the winter

[@terrylonewolfswisse8116]

I never knew there was so much to doing your dirt work but for some reason I watch every epicode I can and so much of what you do is a lot more than I thought it would. I live in Iowa so see a lot of tiling from a distance and you have shown me there is so much more than I thought is would be, thanks for all you do but have one question what is flex fuel?

[@redevil7081]

Y’all will make it by Thursday, you always meet your customer’s needs. Just remember to fill all your machines and your fuel hauler…get some fuses.

[@TheGingerGenius78]

Looking good amazing how the haul road is holding up pumping away like that !

[@tracyeaves1084]

Are they going to take the other trees down to make more land for corn

[@silk9775]

Good Stuff. Thanks

[@Chico-td2fy]

Dirt dirt. And more dirt 😊

[@fredcroad331]

Aaron needs to clean his windshield to. 😅

[@larsdaun1518]

It is hard to work against the clock. But you Will fix it as always.

[@clarencewiles963]

Thanks for sharing your work. Even if you’re working in the fog on this project. I’ve noticed that you have very good dirt in the pit. As you dump it and level it it’s packing down real good and tight. That land bridge is going to work out great. I’m thinking a good crown and seeding it. 😊 Thumbs up 👍

[@simonwilliams-m1s]

I wonder how much time it would have taken to build the old land bridge compared to the one you are with old school tech. Love watching you guys thanks for the entertainment

[@ronaldclark1178]

I don't think I have ever seen anyone who loves to park equipment in the way, except maybe me.!! lol

[@joemrkvicka3393]

From my flying days - you can never have too much fuel. Unless you are on fire…. Full tanks are happy tanks.

[@Rutherford342]

Ok. DP we are snowed in and need another episode. Also. I am not sure you have been giving MBTS enough union breaks aka Dew breaks😂

[@staceyacre]

Good morning from Minnesota. Today, 1/5/2025 and it’s 0 degrees and -18 windchill and no snow on the ground again.

[@keithsuits9792]

Enjoyed the video

[@daviddziegielewski653]

Always enjoy your videos. Sort of like being at work joking about with my crew.

[@stevencroon]

Always good stuff😄😄😄

[@davidkozuch6095]

You guys are doing a outstanding job 😊 and hello from Hamburg NY good morning it's January we got some snow ❄️❄️

[@ronneidert]

52:18 , haha! I wondered as MBTS was backing up if you'd make it thru the bed! Nicely done. By the way, it hurts longer when you fall after 40...
