Old footage of steeplejacks on Grimethorp collery chimney

[@FiveLiver]

Fred Dibnah banded chimneys by himself! Though these chimneys were still 'live' in those days pouring smoke everywhere. Well done the camera man - crazy.

Don’t know what’s more dangerous assembling the ladders and scaffolding or breathing in all that smoke

[@jimsauer2453]

Yes.

[@echothehusky]

Awesome!

OSHA APPROVED !!

So Fred was not the only one.
