/ @628dirtrooster This job here just keeps on giving. We are now in mid January, two and a half months after this job, and I'm still dealing with hip and leg pain from that fall. It's waking me up at night. My injuries didn't fully reveal themselves for about a week after the job. I'm still uncertain of the full extent of damage. I think I may have fractured a bone in my foot but I never went to the hospital to get anything checked. It is only because I've herniated disks in my back before that I know what some of this pain is. Yes, I have a herniated disk, likely from when I landed with my full weight plus forty pounds of tools on my right knee sending a shock through my back.
We recently returned from the Hive Life conference where I was in pretty severe pain most of the time but I hid it the best I could. No one knew I was injured except my wife. By the end of day two of the conference I was sitting down as much as possible. We were able to bring my dad to the conference and with the aid of a wheel chair he got to attend most of both days. For a little while I thought I was going to need to join him in a wheel chair of my own. I am now trying to stay off my feet and recuperate. That's tough to do and still make a living but we'll get by. I have to be ready for 2022 cut outs so rest and recovery is my focus at the moment.
I have to give big love to Mike Barry and Rick (can't remember Rick's last name but he's from Idaho) for both pitching in to help with unloading, setup and re loading of our booth before and after the conference. Those guys and two other's whose names I can't recall were an immense help. They saved my bacon without knowing the need. Thank you guys!!

Glad to see you up walking around at the Hive life conference after a spill like that!!! Also wanted to tell you that the scenic shots you add to your beekeeping removals is so inspiring to make a person get up and move to go see stuff like that!!! Keep up the amazing work!!!
I’m binge watching your videos! I hope you see this comment, even though the video is more than 2 years old. You and your wife are adorable. You’re just a big teddy bear and your wife is sweet and beautiful..your photography at the end of the videos are incredible and give me a warm feeling. I retire in 4 years and after binge watching so many beekeeping videos I’m inspired to start backyard beekeeping in my retirement! I’m mesmerized by the bees! Thank you for the incredible videos!
You're really going to enjoy beekeeping! Thanks for all the love.
Sorry about the fall...those injuries can take a while to heal! Remember when climbing up a ladder "good (leg) up first" and when climbing down "bad (leg) down first". That was a life changer for me. Great footage of the sunset!
I walked for 6 months on a broken foot, telling myself to suck it up, cupcake. It'll heal. Finally I went to the doctor and ended up having to have surgery to remove all the bone fragments. Save yourself months of trouble and just go and get it fixed.
The foot seems to be healing up, it's the hip that's really killing me. If it doesn't ease up after this week I'll go get Xrays.
Hey DirtRooster. Thank you for the video, the photography, the music, the sunset. They are much appreciated. You're in my thoughts. I hope you get better soon. Having rheumatoid arthritis and sciatica myself, I have an idea how you feel. Don't let it get you down. God bless and see you soon.
I'll get all healed up eventually. I hope you find a way to get some relief.
Randy, so sorry you fell and got hurt and hopefully there’s no permanent ailments from the fall! That was a beautiful sunset and great footage especially to be driving while filming. It was good to talk to you in TN and one of these days I’m going to come down your way and catch up with you on your turf.
Always wonderful to see you and Pete working together so funny
Pete we missed you at the HLC!! Randy, we are praying for you after that bad fall.
The sky is beautiful and what a sunset thank you Randy
It was a great day.
There was so much smoke coming out of that smoker, my eyes started to water. Hope your knee recovers fully. Thanks for posting the beautiful sunset video Randy.
Pete’s fear of rats cracks me up! I think that was the fall you took right before we came to visit. Another awesome video!
We need to start Pete out on hamsters.
Good luck with your injury. You did such a good job of describing it my knee hurts now.

I did a similar fall back two years ago. Whoever did the lawn on the side of the sidewalk had a wide enough mower that they went over a pretty significant dip in the ground and cut all the grass at the same height making the dip completely invisible. I was helping my brother-in-law move and went to go put something in the back of the car and bam down I went right onto my knee without being able to brace myself because I was carrying something heavy. Then had to continue to work since my brother-in-law had to be out within the next two days. My knees swelled up, and I could hear it creaking and occasionally grinding on each other. Finally convinced my parents to let me off and got some inflammatory drugs for it. Knee wasn't right for about three months after that but did eventually heal fully by staying off of it completely.
Crazy story for you... When I was a teenager I was riding my bike down a hill and into a field I wasn't familiar with on a road I wasn't supposed to be on. Someone had mowed the ditch level with the shoulder of the road and the field. I didn't see the ditch until it was too late and I was really moving too. I woke up in the hospital with a fractured cervical vertebra, among other injuries. I broke my neck again a year later. Thankfully the Lord was watching out for me and I didn't paralyze myself. I still have a little trouble from it all these years later but I played football into high school and got into boxing for ten years after that. I'd say it healed up pretty good. lol
I completely understand your being frustrated about being told, "You didn't put the wood back properly." Especially seeing the extensive disrepair the rest of that place was in. But it's your good name on the job.
Hope your legs heal up quickly.
I think my frustration was more in the fact that she completely ignored that I had fallen through her deck and injured myself. In hindsight I should have filed a claim against her home owner's insurance. Almost three months later and I'm still dealing with pretty severe hip and knee pain.
I definitely owed her a trip back to straighten out that board though. Gotta leave it right regardless how jacked up the rest of the house was.
@@628DirtRooster Yes, ignored the fact you were injured on her property - then knowing you should've filed a claim but didn't and now you're dealing with a lingering issue.
I hope you're feeling better and like I said in my original post - It's your good name on the job, we all knew you'd make it right and do more than originally contracted to do. Oh I wasn't saying you'd do a half assed job because the rest of the place was in disrepair, just that she'd point out the board before you were finished with the job is what disgusted me.
I love the banter between Pete and you. Funny as heck!
Pete is a good sport.
Hope by now your doing a lot better. Hope you got insurance information from owner. Love your endings. Your pictures or videos of the area are beautiful.
much respect,ive never been to Louisiana, props to you for your carpentry skills in a tough spot,i wanted to make hive life,but next year i sure want to,great sunsets ,...thank you,no mites thats cool
Really enjoyed watching this. Thanks.
Heal like a youngster. After the citrus run in Manatee county the saw palmetto honey comes next and is a favorite for folks with allergies.
Rooster perfection as usual. Thanks for sharing. We are heading out to video hives in the snow. Definitely an oddity in our area. No telling what kind of shenanigans are in store. Glad you are ok.
If I was there I'd make some nice snow angels for the video.
Where are y'all located Craig

Dude....that popcorn soundtrack in the opening was hilarious... great choice for audio of the bee catching. Bwahaha
Every good movie needs popcorn.
Beautiful country and sunset Randy. Hope your knee recovered man. Good bee content. I could tell you were hurting.
Wow! The video of the scenery and sunset was simply icing on the cake!
Really enjoyed it...beautiful area.
Hope your leg is better.
Gorgeous footage at the end. Feel better Rooster!
Hate to hear about about your fall. I know its hard but you need to rest as much as you can before cutout season. Falls are not fun anymore as we age. I am glad you made it back home safe and sound. I really enjoyed seeing you in all the videos at Hive Life. Hopefully next year I will get make it and meet and shoot the breeze. Take care and get well soon.
Love watching your cutouts! I did my first in October but luckily didn’t have to get into any deconstruction. I used to work in Biloxi!
Beautiful looking fishing spot there at the end. Great video!
Wonderful.
Way. Of. Life. Always a great video. Thanks buddy! 🐝🐝🐝✌️
Get you some down time you deserve it. Bee's will still be there and waiting for you. 👍❤🐝🐝🐝
Hope you feel better soon Randy!
You do an awesome job at video and especially editing.
Beautiful sunset! Oh, and a nice cut-out too. Praying for a speedy and complete recovery!
Yes, thank you
Hate to see you get hurt. Hope you feel better. Great video.
Man I hope you heal. Praying for it.
Now I know why you were relaxin at the booth at #hivelife good to see you are bouncing back. Good cutout btw
It was because I was tore up from the floor up. :)
Hope that knee feels better sooner than later Randy. You fellas in the south have a great swarm removal niche 👍🏼
Wonderful Vid! Thank You!!
It’s always great to see the sunset with you, specially with that great guitar music. Greetings from Ibiza island Spain
Hi Benjamin
Great video Randy. Got to meet you at HLC and didn't know about your knee. Hope it heals quick. Remember to bee patient or bee a patient.
That was a nasty fall DR!! Hope your feeling better today. Nice video and enjoyed the shots you took at the end, beautiful area!!
Thanks Tea Bag. Have a good Sunday.
Randy, I feel your pain as a former sufferer of 4 levels of herniated discs. I always refused surgery because I was a Rehab RN for 21 years and saw too many people have multiple surgeries without ANY relief. I will pray for a complete recovery for you and that you and your beautiful wife can make ends meet till you feel better. God bless you. You always make me smile and have taught me so much about bees and how wonderful they are. I always love your beautiful photos too. I do wish you well my friend.
Hope you recover and get well soon! Just hearing about it made my knees and back hurt. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us. Stay safe, get well!
Loved the video
Beautiful sunsets 😱👍👍😉
It was indeed
Get well soon! And don't hesitate to go get it checked out.
Beautiful sunset!
Prayers going your way.
Randy I hope your knee is OK that’s a hard fall to take I know I’ve done that exact same thing on a dock and tore ligaments so you make sure that you get that taken care of because when you get to be my age in the 60s it’s going to bother you believe me take care my friend always enjoy your videos
At 52 I'm not far behind you. I don't heal nearly as fast as I used to.
thank you for adding the sunset1 I dig the music you play with your videos. I hope the leg feels better. 1st year beekeeper, thank you for sharing.
Our pleasure!
Take good care of yourself. I fell and hurt my knee over a year ago, it has never been the same.
Beautiful scenery at the end!! :)
It was a great day for some sun gazing.
You had me cringing with the shin on the deck move...been there done that, ouch! Sounds like a rough day for ya, heal up quickly Randy!
Great video sir. Glad you didn’t break your legs or anything. That could have been a lot worse. Keep yourself safe and maybe some camera training is in store for your help. Lol!!
I always love your broll. Peaceful
Beautiful shot , sun setting at end of bridge, fisherman in foreground !!!
Hope you recover quickly!!🙏😎
Thank you
I’ll be honest dirt rooster one of favorite channels to watch. Randy’s a good dude.
You're too kind Shelby
The water is so still and peaceful. Looks like a nice place to spend a afternoon It's always rolling waves here on the southeast coast.
Love your videos
Thanks William
Sorry about the fall Randy, I took one a couple of weeks ago myself, got real lucky and no injuries other than my pride. Hope you heal up good as new soon. How about an update on your dad's longhive, really interesting as I understand you don't have to lift boxes with them. Thinking of starting a hive or two myself on east bay across from Pensacola, lots of salt water here but I have a small fresh water pond on my land as well. Only problem is we have black bears here !
U r the winnest person I have ever heard.
Yes, I win all the time.
I've been watching for a few years now
Very nice 👍🏼 specially at the end gorgeous 🤩🙏🏽 sorry for the injury by the way 😊
Thanks Jojo. I'll heal up. :)
Hope you feeling better take care of yourself
Pete's my "brother from another mother", 'cause I hate rats and mice just as much as he does, LOL. Dang, I hope you get to feeling better--I can sympathize as I fell and broke a toe, and came down with a sinus infection in the first week of 2022. Your filming and photography skills are really improving--love the sunset footage! Glad you got to go to Hive Life, sad you were hurting though. But, it'll get better! Cheers!
Started watching this as soon as I got home. Another great removal mixed with some funny moments. Hearing you describe your fall has my knees hurting out of sympathy. 😥 Sure hope your doing well.
Thanks for the thoughts Aline
That's so frustrating about the injury. Hope you can get it checked out soon at least to see if some physical therapy could help. I know that pain of back and knee issues, definitely not fun. Heal soon!
Be praying for a quick recovery.
Thank you Rod and Rita
Sorry to hear about the on going pain, I sure hope that clears up soon! It also sounds like you could use some time off to heal up a bit!
I could definitely use some time off. Beach time coming. 😆
"Do you need something to wipe with over there?" Was EXACTLY what I was thinking!
Looked like he was scratching for some wide leaves. lol
Good thing you didn’t try to catch yourself. I broke an arm reaching out to stop my fall.
Sorry you got hurt, loved your video though especially showing to drive back home
Great Video my friend.... I saw Beaches at the end of the Video... 😃
Awesome!

Sehr tolle Filme das sieht immer nach sehr viel Arbeit aus.

Machst du das Hauptberuflich.
Toller Einsatz bei Dir ist immer was los mach weiter so.

This is my primary job for a few months out of the year.
I hope you are not badly hurt! Hugs!!! The Homeowner should be grateful that you are not claiming against her homeowners policy!!
She should but she seemed not to be concerned about me. Never even asked about my injuries.
Some people don't care about anyone but themselves. It will come back to her one day and it won't be pretty. Never have understood nastiness for no reason.
39:00 I forgot how much I missed living in the south.... Till I remember the 100% humidity. Those sunsets are in my blood. Thanks for all that you do
Humidity is nasty here.
Love the area filmed beautiful! Always hate weak boards. Could have been very bad.
So I’m just after a right knee replacement. As you told your tale, falling through the deck, I’m just cringing and my knee is hurting. Yeah, I’m FEELING YOUR PAIN!
i broke my leg in that exact move, landed on the corner with my shin, and crushed part of the bone, i know the pain and i am ss. i was 16, i cant imagine the pain of doing that now.
So very sorry that happened to you.
but ya are looking good my friend...
long time no see it seems... hope you have a good one and thanks for the vid
alwasys enjoy the watch...
Dang that reminds me of when I sprained my ankle so bad I thought I broke it. I was 16 then. My brother drove me to the hospital and I could feel every rock in the road as we drove. I hadn't thought of that in forever.
man, you make me wanna move .. the area is so beautiful there
Get well soon!!!!!! As we get older it seems to take longer to get back to where we were when we got hurt. Take care of yourself.... or you'll have Elizabeth to deal with! LOL
She won’t let me quit, injured or not. Haha
sorry about your knee...that hurts!! hope it heals quickly...
Thanks Gail
Nice wrap up to the video. You need more sunsets to enjoy.
I really like your video style. Taking your time to stop and look at the small things - well edited too.
I appreciate that!
Poor Randy this really sucks… this lady’s house insurance should cover your medical bills… you saying you have a disc hernia could possibly be causing some pressure on your sciatic nerve and causing all your pain,you should have a MRI to confirm that,I went through all this after falling down stairs years ago and frankly still have pain on and off from my sciatic nerve… get treatment before this becomes chronic…. I could feel your pain while you were quietly working while your buddies were chatting….best of luck to you Randy in your recovery…💕
Hey ROOSTER 🐔 hope y’a ain’t hurt fer long bud!! Tell partner Pete it’s his job to check them walkways.
Beautiful fishing location.
It sure is Diane.
I lived near brackish water most of my life in Brige City, Texas near Lake sabine and the Sabine River and surrounded by marsh. But the duck hunting and Red fishing was great.
Yep, plenty of reds around here.
You still doing removals this time of the year. Oh wait it’s not cold there.. 😂 snowing in the Jackson area.
Yep, still got them calling.
This was probably months ago
Yeah I see after watching this was Oct though.
24:36 the house behind looks good,
and the end of video u driving the car, the view are so good too
Boy you're whole a lot nicer than I would have been. I would have told her that because of her rotten deck I got hurt. And I'd make sure I sent the bill to her insurance company. Yes I know. Not very nice. But it just burns me when people all of a sudden see how bad their deck is after you've worked on it not before. And then you show us all the squirrel holes 🤦🏻
@16:27 Mr. Paul those bees like it when you SNAP those rubber bands against them. ;)
Holy Crap Randy, I hope you get some relief soon.
Unfortunately your like me and think it's gonna go Away 😬.
You should tell those people about there damn Deck and make them compensate you for real😨.
JO JO IN VT 💕😄☃
Hi Mr Dirt Rooster or may I call you Randy? Sorry to hear you were hurt and for a big strong man like you admitting, however begrudgingly, to being in pain, you must be really hurting! I do understand pain and if I’ve learnt anything it’s that you should not hide it. In the long run it doesn’t do you any good and it doesn’t give those around you a true understanding of what you are going through. I know medical costs in the US are HUGE , we are so lucky down here in Australia with our health system, but get yourself seen to. You are too young and active to carry an injury that can have many long term effects physically and mentally. Look after yourself as you are too important to those around you to be suffering. So sorry if this sounds like a lecture but I am speaking from experience. Lecture over! Btw I love your channel, I have watched all of your videos, some more than once. I don’t grow bees I should and probably could but life does get in the way sometimes, I just enjoy the bees, love watching you chilling at work and maybe even most of all your beautiful photos and videos of your local beauty spots which you often end your videos with. Stunning vistas all of them! Recover well, stay healthy and safe in this crazy world. Hugs Deb

Nice travel log, now I don’t have to go.
Road trip!
Ouch! Hope there are no lasting effects from the fall! I landed on a knee on concrete a couple years ago and while it didn't affect the knee itself other than a bruise that soon went away, it somehow damaged a nerve causing a half-dollar sized area about 3 inches below my knee on the outer side of the leg that took nearly a year before it could be touched without causing pain. It was really weird.
Versus the homeowner griping about the uneven board, she should have been worried about getting her butt sued for negligence with you falling through the rotted deck flooring.
Take some multivitamins. Whenever I have some healing to do I take two a day. Buy a tube bandage for support and maybe a TENS machine if the pain is really bothering you.
Love ya work Chief 💜
Thanks Chief. My wife has been feeding me all kinds of vitamins lately.
