Ok

Fun to watch. Thanks for letting us hear the equipment work and the sounds of the demolition. Too many nowadays have music instead of the sounds of the equipment.

Awesome demo! Straight into it, no mucking around. Great to watch, well done!!

Well done. I enjoy the heck out of watching demo videos like this, Thanks for sharing,!!

Now that’s what I call a professional, great job 👏

Although my company is primarily engaged in road construction, forestry contracts, I was approached last year by a development company to tear down three strip centers. I did the math, gave them what I thought would be a bid too high for consideration. A day later their attorneys were putting together a contract and securing a performance bond, insurance. Since I’ve done four more contracts. What are being paid is amazing. Best of which, I don’t have to haul away the wreckage. I bring in one of my 395s, easy money.

Easy money if you already have a fleet of equipment, good operators, and insurance/bonding/legal to handle contracts and liability. But that's a big hurdle to clear. Still, surprised there's not more competition. Where is your company based?

He won’t say where he’s based. My experience in the peoples socialist republic of New York with those easy money jobs-no bid or insider government contract with kick backs.

I subbed because of how you took that first big bite out of the building. You weren't afraid of it, just jumped right in. Best of luck!

Just a suggestion...I think if you record until after cleanup you might grow your channel more. Keep up the great work 👍 love your videos!

That roof must have leaked every time it rained. I haven't seen a building come down so easy

These are fun to watch. As for the bank vault door, I'm not sure where you'd use it, but it would seem worth saving.

Thanks for a great video! such a underrated channel!

I enjoy watching your videos keep making great videos I like your videos keep making great videos I like your videos a lot

In New York, we recycle heavily. Our strategy is (As much as possible) keep like materials together. Also not all of our dump sites take all materials thus the separation. Sometimes the metal recycle sales pay for the entire expense part of the job. Keep up the good work. Also like others have suggested show the job after all is said and done. Clean, graded, Etc. Good Work 😄👏

Can someone explain the purpose of spraying water on it

Amazing how powerful these machines are! I saw a group of them a while ago cut a path thru a mountain for a pipeline. They looked like T Rexes chewing up the earth from a distance. 😗BTW I wonder if most of those cinderblocks can be cleaned and resold.

Thanks for sharing - I like the way how you demolish. If you use the "put everthing in the center-method" there would be not so much to see for demolition lovers. I hope you will get a lot of fans. By the way it would be cool to see how you crush the metal stuff like fridges, stoves or AC.

I think in this case, the concrete and cement masonry unit blocks need to go to a different place than the rest of the building scrap. This is probably why he was carefully peeling off as much of the wood pieces as possible, then toppling the block walls away from the main spoil pile. It takes a little longer to knock down the building this way, but its a lot less work later when loading out the trash than manually sorting out cement blocks from the wood and interior building debris.

OMG 12:37 lifts the back of the roof in one massive grab. Wow!

You did really well, nothing damaged. Slow and methodical. Only thing I'd suggest is not to work over the final drives, I know, not always going to happen, but its a good habit to be in especially when doing heavier work. Subscribed! Love your channel!

Hello I'm from good old Europe, Austria. You have a great feeling when demolishing with the excavator. We separate everything here into wood, metal, building rubble, problematic materials and residual waste. How does it look for you? Have a good time an enough work.. 😊

that guy running the machine is awesome

My 4 year old grandson picked this video to watch. We both loved it.😊

I'm so glad we haven't got smell-o-vision. I love it when you can get close to the action.

In all the years I've stood at an airport, I've been impressed by the power that gets the plane into the air. I have a similar feeling with excavators. Planks like 2"*8" become like matchsticks when the bucket presses on. My neighbor, who is not used to driving, swerved to the left with the bucket, when the intention was to the right. It took us a week to repair. Meanwhile, the children were without a playhouse. Were we made aware of the power of an excavator perhaps..?

Nice video. Seems the machine loves it.

Nice demolition !

fun to watch professionly done

These were mini banks. I built a few of these in the 80's.

from one demo operator to another nice work bro

Much appreciated.

Simply Satisfying

Did you put everything into a dumpster or try to separate the cinder block onto save weight ?

Imagine making a prank, and booking a demolition of your neighbor’s house, when they are out !

Were those LVLs or solid beams that you kept picking out?

Well done uve done a great job keep it up

What a mess. How NOT to do it, mixing it all together.

just subscribed always been fascinated with construction equipment so awesome 😮

What is the water for? To keep down dust or asbestos? Or in case the demolition creates heat and then a fire?

@vicjjr31

3 ай бұрын

That was my first thought. I used to do asbestos abatement, and we sprayed water on any open insulation to keep the particles from contaminating the air.

Its even more fun to drive the excavator right thru the building, but a bigger excavator though

Cool video. Stay safe out there

Enjoyed, Cat at work😼🤝

Cool video!! Well done.

my daughter loves watching this heh

I played about 20 minutes of T-Rex sounds next to this.

Hey, what's the address on the building ?

No way I could be that meticulous. The child in me would have to destroy everything as fast as possible.

Good job 👍🏻

hey buddy great video keep up the good work

No need for sorting out the E-waste before demolishing? Do everything go to landfill or incineration?

Good operator!

How did you get into the demolition industry?

Nice job

I work with an excavator here in Brazil too, my dream is to work with an excavator there in the United States

looks good

i saw absolutely positively one hundred percent nothing wrong with this video!!! no one got hurt everyone was safe! plus you were doing your job from a safe distance! but i have a question for you!!!!! how do you know what is salvageable or not salvageable when it comes to tearing down a building ???

you should show the clean up also i feel like i seen half a video 😁

My boy just got dismembered

I could not have done that good

wow amazing

Well done

That roof and over hang came apart way way too easy. As if the put just enough nails to hold it there. Surprised high winds never ripped that stuff of the structure. Nice job separating the debris.

Done a good job

Nice couch.

water is crazy safety

your a fine operator save the lvl beams for resale

That’s what power can do in a short time when it takes weeks to put up

i was just gonna ask you what was the purpose of using water when tearing down a building? and i found the answer! it controls dust and prevents it from spreading to other areas :D interesting!!!

A lot of unnecessary pushing and scraping of lumber!

Painful. Must be his first time sitting in an excavator.

Just curious why you dont work with scrappers to recycle a bunch of this. A lot more worth saving than just the beams.

Good LUCK in your Demolition Business but keep the Driver Gears on your Tracks to the rear

Someone must have vandalised the inside though? What a mess.

How much of that could have been salvaged? I see big windows and wooden doors that could have been reused.

No one saved the couch.
