It's funny how some channels have fancy editing with music, transitions, etc., and then there's Alan! Raw, no fancy stuff and you really have to appreciate the simplicity of his videos. .

[@russelldrey8678]

Every wizard needs a fortress to hang his hat. Pretty awesome stuff. It takes DIY to a whole new level 👍

[@ChrisTesch87]

Alan is a brilliant madman, and I'm here for it! Love this guy. You can tell, he's sunk EVERY penny into this fortress and it's all going to be worth it!

[@MacGyver2154]

I hope he gets it done soon so he can enjoy his hard work.

[@ChrisTesch87]

@salty.oldcracker same! How cool will it be to see it all lit up and done!

[@blawknox]

Doesn't take much to impress you evidently SMH

[@joduval]

I wish I could afford to take time off and go help the wizard!

[@adventuresbackroad2534]

He smart, he a natural engineer born.

[@kirkdavenport7185]

You remind me of my Dad (RIP) who did everything his own way and that was that. He built his own dome-home complex from scratch complete with a hydroponic farm dome, solar space heating (air), monolithic foundation cooling, wind turbine (power), and had a dowser come and locate his water well to be completely off-grid. He also had propane for a refrig and the stove as well as gas backup heat. He was an interesting man. Like yourself, my Dad got a lot of teasing and sideways glances, but this was because no one understood him or his intentions. They were all lemmings running together to a distant cliff. My Dad set up his own camp and stepped away from the crowd, and lived his life out, his way. God bless him and God bless you. Be safe!

[@aaronmcconnell7358]

Your dad sounds like my kind of guy a man on his terms,reminds me of dick proenoeke he one day decided to leave his job moved to Alaska and built his own cabin to live the last 40 years of his life in nature. there is a documentary "alone in the wilderness" that was made using his old home videos ,it was on KZbin for free .definitely worth watching God bless be safe.

[@hotlinepressurewashing3064]

I love these videos! Don’t ever hesitate to share because you think it may be boring!!

[@jonnyringo6338]

You can really see the hurt in Alan's eyes when talks about a tool he doesn't have anymore because of the fire

[@stacey_h]

I wish there was a way you replace some of the tools he he lost and now needs. I wouldn't know what he is talking about but sure would help if someone did.

[@cryptonymus]

One of my favorite channels. I admire Alan's way of problem solving.

[@remb9614]

I agree!

[@ronnydowdy7432]

❤ You amaze me that you have done mostly all of this build of The Mountain Fortress by yourself over the years. Myself would love to hear you're backstory about how you got the idea and how long you have been working on the build. I would like to see a more detailed tour of the cave systems you made along with the inside rooms of The Mountain Fortress. ❤❤

[@MargieM10]

I second this! A life story video would be awesome.

[@brettmorton7365]

I third this. You just know there's gonna be an interesting story there...

[@delbutler885]

Are you guys thinking at all. You build up a mountain Fortress and then plaster everything inside of it all over the internet. What is smart about that?

[@ronnydowdy7432]

@@delbutler885 He never put anything on KZbin when he was building his Fortress until Heavy D seen it and gave him and his crew a tour. Heavy D hired him after he sees all the equipment that is on the Fortress property and the knowledge that Alan has. Heavy D has like 1.4 million subscribers and they wanted to know more about The Mountain Fortress so Alan is trying to make a KZbin channel.

[@fisch69]

Something I have had great success with to make a strong repair on plastics is: Super glue with, either graphite lead Pencil shavings) or powdered charcoal, sprinkled on top of the glue as quickly as possible !! I know it sounds crazy but works like a dream! Makes the repair as strong as the original plastic!! It’s a cheap, fast fix! Nothing to lose!

[@ThePastaManCan]

Yay another Alan video :D

[@jayajm2]

Seems like this man is in every video that Sparks makes plus he has the time to keep his own channel going. Amazing! Keep up the great work, Alan.

Alan is the Wizards Wizard, so versatile !

To be Alan’s age and working all week for Diesel Bros then work all weekend on the fortress is amazing I hope he gets it done so he can enjoy what he has built. Also get some security cameras up to help protect the place

[@sonyakc]

Thank you for sharing your tricks and tips and your journey with your fortress. Great job once again. Blessings Overflowing 🙏❤️👋

[@ltsgarage7898]

I love how he jumps off the tractor and says “ahhh Shoot, I broke one of my Bolts” trust me Alen one broken bolt on that truck is the least of your worries… Friendliest truck in town. You drive down the road and it waves to everyone. Fenders flapping, doors flapping..

[@nada7.077]

Alan I am so glad Les was able to help you with the second wind turbine frame. They’re looking good up there at the top of the fortress! Alan you sell yourself sort, your content is always amazing and interesting. One great thing about your channel is the wonderful variety you provide! Looking forward to the cave exploration video! ❤️🙏

It’s seriously amazing Allen has anything that runs.

Can I just bring all of my tools up there with me and help you build!? Living the dream!

You are one amazing guy .l believe you could build anything . Love all your videos. Keep showing us your build .

The Wizard wins again! Thank you Alan for this episode.

[@craigjones7111]

I could watch Alan all day, he is a man who always thinks out of the box

[@RobertCline-jp4ve]

his thinking is like a fart in a frying pan

[@-108-]

Agreed. I love it when the Diesel guys edit in complex algebra and formulae, when Alan is deep in thought or explaining something complex. lol

[@davestevens4263]

This is what hard working crazy people build. I know because I dug a 32 ft cave into granite with 1 room by hard . A hand held air chisel in about 6 months. It is awsome , 38 degrees cooler in there than outside. 108 the other day & 70 degrees f in there .

[@-108-]

@@davestevens4263 Just imagine if you only had the tools of a miner 49er. Ooooooh boy, that woulda been a lot of work. Prolly woulda taken 15 years!

Allen im happy to see that you have gotten some help

[@Dwayne7834]

You are going to have a hell of a place when you’re finished. Thanks for the update.

[@ProjectKnowledge4U]

Finished, I think the wizard has more creative visions then the time needed to complete them all. I am amazed at his creativity, his ability to design and fabricate is beyond measure. I truly hope that he creates a foundation or trust so that his work can be studied and preserved for future generations. Alan, nothing you do is ever boring, it's inspiring as much as it is educational, both in the content of your posts and the comments of many eager fans you enliven!

This video contains so much gold! The gloves (just like in dumb and dumber) might be my favorite scene in that movie. The rag for a gas cap. Endless gold!

Please continue may the weather cool down

[@lorditsprobingtime6668]

I love watching your videos for a lot of reasons but, probably the main one is getting to see that incredible view you've got up there. I find myself wishing I had a nice little mountain top, away from everyone else just like it. Apart from that view, you've got such great power options too. You've got so much wind and could potentially have acres of solar panels too if you wanted but, that view is priceless.

Alan as a coal miner here in Utah I love exploring old mine sites

[@mp194801]

THAT'S GOOD WIZARD you have a good friend in Lance to help you lift up the turbine frame up in the Fortress - you make me feel so giddy looking over the edge of the Fortress - but you both got the frame up to the very top safely - now talking about grinding back the bricks to install the window frame to fit - if you do grinding make sure you wear a mask you don't want that dust in your lungs. Stay healthy Wizard, stay healthy. You're just amazing Wizard working from your head without a structure drawn-out plan like many approved plans are required by a Building Inspector - is that required with your Fortress? But I guess you know what you're doing so far. Enjoying your progress - thanks for the update!!!

[@neilfromclearwaterfl81]

Ditto: I'm hoping Alan is only taking the mask off for a moment when making the videos however even that risks Concrete Dust Silicosis which is harming so many its considered the "New Asbestos". Would hate to see the video of the housewarming party when the Fortress is done with Alan sitting there in a Wheel Chair hooked up to an Oxygen Tank. See too many Widows selling their Deceased Husbands pet project that he never got to enjoy because he didn't wear his respirator and died of lung disease. Wouldn't be mentioning this if we didn't care about you Alan. Best!

[@fishhaulergreatlakes8208]

Alright a helping hand good for you Alan

[@stum8374]

Can we imagine what the wizard would come up with if he got to gether with other great inventers of the 19th & 20th centuries!!!!! Those are the men & woman we need now a days.

[@williamconner8240]

Dave sparks just picked up some interesting equipment you could use to put heavy items on the top. A deal to be made and then Dave helps drag equipment up mountain.

[@01cdave]

I enjoy your escapades AND the views of the geology around you! You live in the Disturbed Land of UTAH. The Midas Comet shoved Utah over a hundred miles toward the southeast, then the Laramide Orogeny shoved ancient rock layers over younger rock layers, pushing everything up to 50 miles at a time toward the east. That first time took perhaps5 minutes, the second took millions of years.

[@bretts1]

Alan I been watching your videos and you Sir have a awesome attitude and there is no “Can’t make it happen” in your vocabulary ! Your down to earth and so fun to see what one man’s will and determination CAN DO. Have two questions! How many years ago did you start the fortress ? Second we’re can I buy a hat like yours. I seen some close but there too small? ❤

[@NET-POSITIVE]

I think an A-frame with rollers that is retactable and removable would be a wise item for the I beams that extend out where you where lifting from. Simple and very handy if you are lifting large or heavy items to the roof top.

[@khonkala665]

It’s all interesting to us. Keep filming! 💚
