i do that shit all the time hahahahahh

[@wolololer]

@@Metalborn710 that laugh, when i almost injure myself, or almost destroy something in work xD

[@lid52up83]

So true

[@straighttalkwithernest1607]

The "I almost died laugh" was pretty accurate

[@ianoleary1420]

It’s so accurate. I see it daily.

[@Renee_R343]

Holy crap, never really thought about it before but the "laugh when you almost died" but it is a very specific laugh people around the world use to convey the very same thing. Odd when start thinking about it.

[@fms6306]

Renee Rehe yup thats universal across cultures it seems

[@justinmckee2256]

It is

[@tyvekhomewrap9164]

Getting yelled at for following instructions is a whole new level of relatable.

[@underscore_tip]

I fight back by giving deliberately misleading instructions and then yell back at them for following them. Also satisfying watching someone have to re cut something

[@iComplainer]

that was better than anything collegehumor has produced for the last 5 years

[@ShoutsWillEcho1]

Oooof

[@FishyBoi1337]

Truth

[@brotherabrahamzamarripa9108]

Yes. I think they're just out of it now. They're as weird or even more so than this generation of adolescents.

[@ThomasGuldimann]

Newton's Third Law still true.

[@michaelscott-joynt3215]

Imagine that. People who work and learn real-world stuff have a better sense of humor than adult children too old to be in college (but pretend to be young and cool), who have Reddit gold and never missed The Daily Show, and so think Jon Stewart is a genius.

[@Archi2g]

laughed so hard at the part about the 'almost dying laugh'

[@drstyles69]

Archi that’s so accurate! Some factory job sites are dangerous and when you almost tip a lift over when you’re 50 feet in the air you make the same sound

[@jarvusff7726]

Archi Ahahah I can confirm this laugh is a real thing.😂😂

[@comatose03]

I've made that laugh numerous times when almost stepping off walls while setting trusses lol

[@_valve]

Archi that was my favorite part cause I know that laugh a little too well

[@sergeantsaundy1312]

Same!

[@learnerlearns]

"Work is mandatory, fun is always optional"

[@NOBOX7]

He wasnt joking ....

[@JohnOConnor1005]

you haven't lived until you have done that laugh...

[@LorddOfChaoss]

Yeah because if you didn't make that laugh you probably died lol

[@eblizzard2842]

Awesome, just awesome. Reminds me of my first lumber job as a scrawny 18 year old fresh out of high school. Since then I've added marine construction and foundry work to my resume. Only a certain breed of people can appreciate the humor and culture of this kind of work. "THREE WHAT?!?!?!" C hair had me dyin'.

[@MrFrankie4700]

I remember I almost fell 50ft from a platform and wasn’t even tied off, I sat there on a pipe and had a whole ass conversation with my buddy about life 😆😆😆

[@TheOneWhoMightBe]

Getting yelled at for following both good and bad instructions. Sounds like you've worked for my step-father. "Pass me that." "Which 'that'?" "THAT!" "There's three 'that's', which one do you want?!"

[@deadshot2081]

Also when they call it a thing rather than being specific

[@MudMotorsMax]

Sounds like my old dick head boss

[@rtelles1127]

Was working with another crew .and let their foreman take the lead . And i was cut guy .so he yells " Bob cut me a 2 by " Since were working with 2x6 ,2x8 and 2x10 at the moment. I yelled " 2 by what ? 2x6 2x8 2x10 ? Speak in full sentences Aaron!"

[@ajtihansky9495]

The near death laugh is universal across all trades. Love it!

[@whiteboy1256thst]

Working in construction 101 Wake up Work Sleep Work in your dream Wake up Work Get yelled by the supervisor Cut steak with a circular saw

[@rudetc]

Enjoy having this guy on site. He'll be a comedy writer in NYC within three years.

[@borp6912]

This is the most wholesome humor I've seen in quite a while that still felt genuine

[@isaach3438]

The "almost died laugh" almost made me die laughing. Crappy jokes aside, AvE sent me.

[@brent1041]

Cutting the steak with the skil saw had me dying. Haha

[@runwillrobinson]

Typical Gen Xer, has to use a skil saw to cut skirt steak. Back in my day we used a crosscut saw.

[@jacobthorson1749]

noobs, I use a radial arm saw lmao

[@adamawson2675]

Rip across the grain for a more tender steak.

[@raifsevrence]

Except that wasn't a skirt steak. it was a dirt cheap top round or sirloin steak. Skirt/flank steak looks nothing like that.

[@kevinkubed7683]

Reciprocating saw all day. After I tumble marinate steak and dry rubs in the concrete mixer.

[@52Ford]

Barbarians! I cope all of my steaks to the grill grate with a 32 TPI blade and slice with a #4 1/2 hand plane.

[@citygirljace]

I'm a 19 year old frame/drywall helper and I identify with everything this guy said.

[@Brokeninternets_]

Your dead pan humor rocks. The start of a hilarious How-to construction parody channel? Loving it.

[@Carpentrycontractors]

Thanks, subscribe to our channel and check back we have more videos in the works!

[@IanDarley]

I work in construction in the UK, all of this applies here also :-)

[@renem8130]

Killer forearms! You should've also mentioned how you develop your quads from squatting at the porta - potty as well.

[@twosheafilms]

Worked construction during school breaks as a teen... so many flashbacks. The getting yelled at part had me in tears! Awesome video guys.

[@Gchupp]

X Carpenter myself you were pretty much spot-on , that's why I believe every teenager in America should have this for their first job, builds character

[@freshstartfitness8875]

Definitely should. Otherwise it will consist of brain dead,money hungry morons who would sell their own mother for the sake of a dollar

[@G8tr1522]

I did college out of highschool for 5 years. Switched majors 3 times. Dropped out. Just started working electrical construction last year. I’m less (mentally) stressed. I get sleep. I feel like a man now. I work harder than I ever have. I feel more confident than I ever have. I used to be shy and overly-polite. Now I crack edgy jokes with the cashier. I feel more motivated to go back to school now more than I ever have, and I can’t tell if it’s from all I’ve described above, or if it’s because I’m afraid a $65k master electrician salary won’t be enough when I get to that level. I wish my parents never forced me to go to college. Honestly, I’m glad I did it the way I did. Waste of time, but I am who I am now bc of it.

[@curtisst.pierre99]

J M Framing is one type of Carpentry

[@improvising0]

17 years old and have been working for about under a year and i can definitely say it’s a great job for teenagers.

[@phantasos12]

"that laugh people do when they almost die" Hilarious...and yet maybe a little too close to home for me. Also, the shart. This whole thing was hilarious. You've got a real talent for dead pan humor!

[@waynegacyii9010]

Some call it construction. I call it, building a 3 story tree house everyday, loving my job.

[@USA_Walmart]

I've watched this video so many times and it always makes me laugh. Great video

[@barnconversion7277]

Best bit for me was "It's kinda nice though, because when I woke up, I had to use it"

[@THIGGEH]

I work commercial electrical and structured cabling, we run all the electrical conduit underground, wire the whole building to the power grid etc, all of this still applies 100%

[@Icybubba]

Including Fajitas?

[@glen2844]

The laugh when you almost die, I shot coffee out of my nose laughed ng so hard. Ihave done that laugh more times than I care to admit.

[@andrewmitchell8401]

[@victorholderman5754]

Lol sheet rockers can be real dicks.

[@Schizophrenicjo]

framer drywaller here, can confirm

[@candymanjp84]

Victor Holderman haaaaaa lol I say that all the time

[@lexianonymous7690]

I'm a drywall finisher and lmao the whole video. I can relate, but I will admit drywallers are a little more rowdy. I've never seen a drywaller who's worked more than a few months, not sing to himself. We'll be working and all of a sudden out of nowhere lyrics of some song are being practically yelled😂. I thought they were legitly crazy and took getting used to, maybe because I'm a girl, but after doing drywall a few years, I get it.

[@contras.]

We make 800 sheets of drywall our bitches. Good money too

[@kas9653]

Late to the party, but that was hilarious! Especially "the laugh when you almost die" - also known as the "1 inch mile" when on scaffold planks 😅

[@Randoman]

My construction teacher in high school toldus to watch this for an assignment I still come back to watch it

I work construction in the Bay Area and California, started off a framer now I am in the office....I CAN TOTALLY back up everything that was said in this video. Great job guys

[@Yarra_Shejtan]

He did nail it, pun intended. I remember i saved all my wages because i was either working or sleeping, good times. ;)

[@SolidMikeP]

The first two weeks of framing felt like Double days of Football, no exaggeration.

[@Zac19088]

*worked. Now in office

[@SolidMikeP]

Worked would be past tense, I still work construction, just behind the desk. You dip shit wanna be smart guy.

[@Magknot707]

Man i hope i get into the office-side someday haha. Congrats man. Im bay area too

[@mtvjackass74]

Too funny and very true on all points!!!! If you are a carpenter and able to stay on the job from start to end it's a rewarding feeling.

[@Carpentrycontractors]

It absolutely is a rewarding feeling!

This is so spot on. Every bit of it!

I'm in welding school, can't wait to get into the field.

Coming from the AvE shout out. You guys are funny. Reminds me of doing carpentry with my dad. Even makes me want to do more. Also that almost just died laugh is the most accurate thing ever.

Been in construction basically since I could walk, my grandpa owns a general construction company and ince I could walk he always had be do little jobs some of my favorite memories in construction were from that. Once I got older I split off from him, I chuckled pretty hard when you mentioned taking out the days fustration. I had a small demo job to do before I could go home on a Friday and was pissed they only had me do so instead of a 10 minute job it would be an hour by myself, so I was going extremely hard busting out concrete stars with a maul since of coarse nobody brought a jack hammer in site. Well my fucking boss had the nerve to come up to me explaining that I was going to crazy trying to break the steps out and that it was unprofessional, I couldn't believe it so since I was already in ot I slowed down took my time a little over 2.5 hours(5.pm on a Friday) then he had the nerve to come back over and yell at me for taking to long and that I was milking it for money! I was younger and I sadly completely lost it and never worked for that a hole again lmao

[@william474]
