Old House Demo ( Part 1)

[@Constructionqueen41]

It's amazing how fast (and easily) they come down. Nice video!

[@wolfiewolfification]

Also love how you went in there and just took a swipe at the chimney, chris boy. that was pretty cool too.

[@watchthe1369]

It is amazing how quickly someone's "Castle" disintegrates when confronted with horsepower and hydraulics.

[@kasnitch]

how many of us have dreamed of doing this for a living since we got the first Tonka ? I know operating isn't all fun, by any means, but this job here is like making an eagle.

[@housekiller3478]

kasnitch that was my thought when I was growing up. who'd of thought growing up and destroying shit I'd get paid for it when I got older

[@housekiller3478]

why two machines on one house? sorry so long to response

[@TrailTrackers]

@@housekiller3478 : LOL for this late response... But... It's easy to see so I'm wondering if you really are a "house killer" and own a machine. But anyway... 1st: Because they can. 2nd: The smaller machine is parting out the brick, which is usually taken to a different landfill; cheaper to dump that than the general demolition debris.

To bad this house was in such bad shape. It was a really cool old house. Thanks for the vid.

[@ngtflyer]

At first I thought "That doesn't look too bad" .. then you peeled the roof off and I could see how far gone it was.

[@regsparkes6507]

I was using a Yanmar just yesterday and without that thumb I was lost,...you made me think back to the days when the only thumb we had was on your hand !!! How did we manage without it ??

[@APHIXrs]

That house woulda looked nice with the tiles under the lead/tin hahah

[@completelandcare2263]

Awesome demo skills

[@carolharvey4082]

I used to bring down houses like these with my 1991 1550b turbo jcb backhoe

[@phillipbonner5215]

That's what you call being a real homewrecker

[@channelt1750]

Awesome!

[@bobbaer869]

Hello Chris I believe you have to much fun demolishing houses lol

[@h.v.schainsawtrees4967]

What year was that house looked old

[@mitchmackenzie3293]

Such fun! 😱

[@nilzlofgren]

Is there going to be a part 2?

[@toughredneckotaku]

Was there anything still inside the house?

[@joeyrousch2438]

Why did they try not to save the house instead of having the house torn down?

[@stereolababy]

i've built houses before but this is more fun

[@yamaharidr450]

i guess thats one way to re roof a house.

[@bandit4817]

Hey mate, do you have asbestos problems in any of these old houses, because here in Oz it is a major problem.

[@pcno2832]

+bandit4817 We don't have too many private houses with asbestos-board covering the whole exterior, like the "fibro" houses I hear about over there. The closest thing are asbestos-cement shingles where were used between the 1920s and the 1960s; I believe they need special handling and disposal. But we also had asbestos in floor tiles, joint tape and compound, roofing, pipe insulation, practically everything, but if it's embedded in a solid, no one worries much about it. One more thing we had was vermiculite insulation, which, if it came from a certain mining town in Montana, was known to be contaminated with asbestos. I never worry about the asbestos in my house; I leave it alone and it leaves me alone. But if it ever has to be demolished, it might be a bit of an issue. I used to work in an old theater which was covered with asbestos-board-cobb panels; it took them months to tear it down with guys in space suits walking all over it.

[@fanlexion]

nice video and nice machine thank you

[@jmeadows8890]

Hey Chris have you ever found anything in those old home's

[@wolfiewolfification]

Chris, that is a pretty old house you are wrecking. Couldn't you salvage any part of it, or did they just want it all out of there and destroyed. Looks like it's 100 years old or more don't you think, Chris babe?

[@TR-zn4pw]

is that the 140 or 160

[@johnkramer7161]

+machinery master (machinerymaster) 160

[@GermanEarthMover]

your another operator isnt good... Chris you are an really good Operator! Greetz from Germany (Y)

[@charlesdyer2376]

House be gone!

[@FIREFIGTER301]

it was save-able just someone needed to come along who had the time, money and disare to fix it

[@vulcan_nz]

looks a bit too much of a job for the little Yanmar lol.

[@kjwoodlief]

Sad

[@gabemcdowell4465]
