It astounds me how these billionaire money people like SIR Jim Ratcliffe or SIR James Dyson couldn't recognise that keeping all this wealth of industrial knowledge complete and thus charging an entry fee to see it (as a simple matter of preserving British Heritage as a business venture) this place could have sustained many jobs locally in opening it up as a walk around museum / education centre. The local and distant schools could have benefitted from this and without doubt would have been visited by millions of people from far and wide...even worldwide. Fred Dibnah was a legend of Great Britain. He was everything British... which is now sadly almost dissolved. SMH
He’s a national hero
Impressive, but I don't understand why they don't just leave the dogs installed in the chimney...
A Great Britain , but more a great Yorkshire Man. Modest but beautiful.
Fred makes me want to be a stronger man
WWIII appears to be here soon, watching this documentary is sobering and preparing me for what seems to be a WWIII reality in the near future. God Save America. God Save the UK.
When Great Britain was great. houses were available no years waiting list on the NHS your doctor was your family doctor talent was actually a thing Individual people had individual likes Industry industries real trades Buildings were made from brick Police were wankers but not pretty wankers England is dead Politicians greedy bankers they have all fucked us At least X factor and love island are on this weekend 🎉😂
Fred's documentarys kept you captivated from the first minute to the last minute his knowledge and drawings was amazing fred new what he was talking about you get actor's politicians and news readers working off a script not our fred so much knowledge god bless you young man❤
Too bad they ruined this video by adding that stupid piano soundtrack. I know why they did it to get by the copyright, but still it's awful.
Brilliant
Excellent
Love it.
I like seeing the pictures of back then and now, but I don't like that they changed the names of the streets.
Love it.
What ever became of Charles dickens son ?
Idk my clan tbh. Half scottish though....but also we've been in America since before it was America, soooo.
Love it.
This guy has balls the size of watermelons, im absolutely terrified of heights, so seeing this man climb up the side of this chimney with just rope, twine, and ladders is scary as shit. No tie offs, no osha, just a good time had by all lmao.
We need Woodlands, Forrest's. I have a plum tree. And hope to get a Rowan. .
Beautiful ❤. Also, it is an interesting bit of history.
Excelente y lo mejor es que se puede traducir al español. Hablo poco en inglés. Ahora super feliz😅
Critical comments are being removed; afraid of different viewpoints?
What viewpoint was removed?
@@Pilkie101 My harshly critical comment that it was Britain's -final- hour, not its -finest-, since it is my contention that the war broke the nation's back and it can be regarded as nothing more than a pyrrhic victory.
We haven't removed any comments from this video. All viewpoints are welcome

Toward the end of the war the German soldiers couldn't get to the west fast enough to surrender to the Americans vs the Russians because they knew the Americans would treat them better. I've always thought that to be so hypocritical coming from an army that decimated Jews, etc as well as the peoples of Russia. Thanks to Hitler most of Germany's citizens (especially the younger ones) had no moral compass. They worshipped a cruel, evil man who, in the end, turned on his own people by wanting to destroy their water, food, electricity, etc because they weren't worthy. His evil was truly unimaginable.
Every day there are fewer and fewer of that very brave generation left! We owe them all so very much!
I don't know how anyone could do this job and live long

What a dumb opening
Historians have completely debunked the association with JTR and the royal family, but the nonsense is still trotted out. Every bit of this section at least is utter bunkum.
What’s a massudge?
Great video, felt relaxing just to watch it. ❤
Thought they'd knocked it down!😊😊😊😊
I've seen this many times but it's still better than any of the crap today 🥰 thanks for sharing 👊
Awesome video but you need to watch jack the ripper the case re opened on BBC I player
For a man that did this so many times, it’s incredible he never once had a serious accident in his career. Well, except getting married, that was a tragedy he’d say. 😕
PURE BALLS!
Never forget!
Love the music that was played in the church is such a fitting song and tribute as whenever I play it it reminds me of him. The guy had a lot of faith in his work being the heights he worked at, rip Mr Dibnah “Fred”
Wow ! That blue plaque says it all. RIP oh great one.
Do they put a new type of war like the British Civil War?
Jackass
I’m starting to take a look at what I should see when in Scotland. Had my dna done and I’m 53% Scottish! I had no idea. I knew I had some English and a Danish great grandfather but was completely surprised. My dad had some too but my mom was of people who came to Canada back in the 1700s. When I step onto the ground in a month or so, I am likely the blood of generations stepping back to their home for the first time since they left. Also going to Dublin and have a ‘wee’ bit of Irish as well.
Alexander Seton, Lord Fyvie and his wife, Dame Lilias Drummond are on my family tree if I may brag just a bit. 😄
Ena Mill in Atherton . I lived a minute from here and it's all still there .
Well done.
How sad and “empty” the whole place is now. None of Fred’s spirit remains.
He was from the old world. The british hayday.
I’d love you to revisit Fred Dibnahs house please.., make the public aware of the atrocity it’s become!!
What’s happened to Fred’s house is a disgrace!! It’s now owned by drug dealing, scrap dealing, money laundering a*holes!! Don’t bother going around there.., you will not be welcome!!
I am in contact with HRIH Princess Donna Dayu Kencana who is the real Queen of England, Charles needs to step down immediately
