Hello Chris . My husband who is 44yr old operated equipment for 28 yr . But in 2018 he had a stroke and it caused brain damage and left him in a mental state. So he can't work anymore. I put your videos also other creators on for him to keep him entertained. He watches every one of your videos several times. Keeps him smiling . So thank you Chris for entertaining him. Blessings to you and your family

I've been fascinated by some of these videos and it's not just because I enjoy seeing work being done or dirt moved around. It's clear that the operator has learned to engage his mind to understand the three-dimensional forces affecting his work and the machine, sometimes solving pretty complex puzzles to do the work. So I suspect that you, in providing your husband with these videos, are not only keeping him entertained but also helping his brain into figuring out how to work around some of the damage caused by the stroke. Good for you!

Quick-clay is perhaps the most scary one. This one was filmed in Alta, Norway last summer where luckily no one was killed: kzitem.info/news/bejne/t42F2Xugg6GQon4&ab_channel=AroundNijkerk. There also was one this jan. 3rd at Gjerdrum where 10 people lost their lives when a quick-clay landslide took out a part of a village. It's stable until disturbed, then it just liquefies as this demo shows: kzitem.info/news/bejne/0WdoqnytemdnaY4&ab_channel=NVE.

Was using my E35 bobcat back in the fall cleaning around the pond. Looked pretty solid. Scraped a few saplings and such down and looked out the cab and couldn't see my tracks anymore. Never felt the machine sink, guess I sat there too long. I promptly backed out and decided "Nope...central VA is too far for Chris to drive to get this outta here." When I get brave again I'm cutting logs and taking with me...when it's very very dry.

I just realized that excavators can use their two treads combined with the arm and bucket to climb in a similar way that parrots use their feet combined with their neck and beak. That's why this talented operator will someday be able to climb a tree with his excavator, if he can ever find a tree big enough and with the kind of branches his beak... I mean bucket... can grab onto.

Chris: "this gooey clay is not going to dry out within the next three weeks" Other guy: "I'm thinking about late tomorrow I should be able to get back out here" Chris: "OK, let me know how that works" Other guy: "yeah I'll let you know" Chris: "Ok send me another picture. Maybe you can get out there a little farther, get it up to the seat, maybe" Looks like he'll be keeping Chris busy for awhile longer and be power washing the excavator again. I think Chris just invented a new 'Disney" ride 'letsdig18 excavator' with steep 45 degree angles and fast turning zero cabs. Caution: If you're pregnant-can't take Dramamine-have a heart condition-brain disorder-vertigo-or any other medical issues; do not board this ride.
