Way over dramatized. Almost nauseating for those of us in hard rock mining.
Fake title
Fake drama
Faked problem
and this isn't even "hard digging"
Man he got some nice popcorn shots
Those tires are also way too worn down with actually little to no grip at all. And not even using chains.
Over dramatized? Nah.... Try to slap adblock on and hear them cry!
At the beginning of the day, workers struggles to open their lockers and punch in on time. But before they even get there, they must face the crucial decision of what to pack for lunch, and what to put in their thermos.
haha this is so on point
You're qualified
If the workers arrive to mine late, the mine could lose millions of dollars and the workers...their jobs...and they are late... every day.
@@Broney-tw3vy without those jobs the town will dry up
Wtf 😂😂😂😂
Artificial tension in the narrative just annoys most adults.

Awful lot of these shows use this technique...sad silly stuff. Reality TV for Trump's America. He's approve of this approach.

Unfortunately the American disease of nauseating documentary presentation seems to have spread
"Driver Rips Massive Hole In Loader's $90K Steel Wheels"
Let's go through this title word by word -
1. The driver didn't do it
2. Nothing gets ripped
3. Not a massive hole
4. Not even a hole, just a gap opens up in the links
5. It is actually a loader. I'll give them that
6. It doesn't have steel wheels, the wheel is also not what gets slightly damaged. Not even the tire.
It actually does have steel wheels lol
@@davidtillman3 steel reinforced? Tbh I have no idea how a wheel even has the strength to support a house sized vehicle, made completely out of dense metal. I need to look up how this works brb
INFURIATED COMMENT TROLL SAVAGELY ATTACKS TH-cam DOCUMENTARY TITLE IN SHOCKING TIRADE! XD
@@7XHARDER Its just a wheel and tire just on a much much larger scale. It's still a steel wheel, it's a multiple piece wheel cause it would be physically impossible to mount it like you would a regular car tire. The chains that are on the tire are completely separate from the tire, they get wrapped around it for rock protection, since tires this size cost $70k to $100k for a single tire.
5. - that one made me laugh haha!
Like, -"You got ONE right. You failed everything else." 🤣
Over-dramatization at its finest. I'd watch this without all the bull crap commentary.
+cRizy89 what would be the reason to watch grown men work in the first place???
Entertainment. The same reason millions of people watch grown men play a sport
@@omarfierro2982 but is it really entertaining??? i'd rather watch a good movie.. james bond and whatnot.. but seriously,someone depicting average day joe acts and then overdramatizing it is beyond me.
Omar Fierro k
cRizy89 : discovery channel shit
Sweating??? Hot??? You mean to tell me that that $5,000,000.00 front-end loader doesn't have A\C??
They don't
It's an older model haha, the new ones do
@ 1:58 I see what looks like a Big air conditioner on the side of the loader when buddy is mouthing-off, it says Sigma on it....I googled it and they make.....Air Conditioners!!
@@catsbyondrepair You are factually in error........(Rod Rosenstien said that once, traitor that he is...)
Operator would down it in for A/C , or find another reason to down it, any reason would work. Asarco too fuxxing stupid to maintain anything!
I've been working at this mine since 2009...this video is embarrassing 😵 Good to see Lonnie (truck driver) again in this video tho. He retired 7 or 8 years ago. He was a super down to earth guy.
Am i the only equipment operator that watched this and started laughing?
fatflyguy you are not
No lol
I am a senior in high school going for an operator. This acting pisses me off.
Vincent Sluga cranes are where it’s at operating wise. Ppl who can run loaders are a dime a dozen.
Hahahaha your harsh hahha
Just as things seem to be improving, a new problem occurs. A rock causes a small dent in the truck, meaning it will have to wait for hours for a dent fixer crew to arrive. A true disaster.
Wow that's some casting couch level acting.
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 omfg
Have definitely seen more convincing acting from a casting couch..... For research purposes obviously 😅
Thicc miners get fucked by blown tires (PMV)
I love how daily breakdowns that are known to happen and accounted for are made to sound so serious on tv.
That was terrible. Cut the overly dramatic narration.
The truck with a puncher was blocking access to the crusher🤔 well drive it out of the way shit with the puncher they showed drive it to the workshop...
Seriously. Its like the click-bait of narration.
Race against time? It will be there tomorrow.
The down machine is costing them about $100k/day being down. It's thousands of dollars per hour being lost.
No shit.
Andrew Delashaw Omg i never could have figured that out !
Commentator- If they don’t get the loads out for the day, the quarry will go bankrupt and get shut down.
Me- Did I set the timer on the pizza in the oven?
Bill rushes to the porta-potty on first break and makes it just in time to avoid a catastrophe. However, he struggles to achieve a clean break as the wind tosses the plastic blue room back and forth as if it were on a ship in a storm. Finally, after pulling a shop towel from his pants pocket, he is able to get just enough pressure to clear the smear and avoid a crusty problem. A problem that would have plagued him for the remaining 8 hours of his long, perilous shift.
I came for the large machinery content.
I then proceeded to leave pretty damn quickly because of the BS dramatization.
“The temperatures are touching some of the highest known to mankind..... 50°c”
I’m not an expert but I’m pretty sure we are aware of higher temperatures!
Not inside a haul truck with No A/c. I remember helping a driver out of a haul truck at 1100 hrs I retrieved his stuff from the cab . The water bottle was so hot I could barely pick it up. I asked him why he drove it? If everyone refused to drive a haul truck with no A/C these Fuxxwads would fix them.
Live here in Az, Kearney isn't even close to Phoenix temperatures. Phoenix gets 122 and 123 degrees occasionally and we run heavy equipment every day through the high heat
@@troyb.4101
Closed cab with no AC? Then your company is being run by idiots.
I wonder what it will cost when the driver passes out and drives over the edge.

The chains are to protect the rubber from damage from sharp rocks not to give more traction though it may help with that.
Indys Dad it doesn’t. When it gets slick your just sliding around.
Brenden Gustafson yeah if it’s dry. If your on snow or mud it’s like having slicks
Chawsky Crawliey are you fucking high? You probably haven’t even seen a truck with chains in your life
@@j44bunch you are clueless stop while you are ahead
Brenden Gustafson when you operate in a steel mill you fucking idiot. Helps with heat displacement so your tires don’t burn.
"The storm passes and no one is hurt".
Man I ain't never known someone to file workers comp for being hit by rain drops.
When those ramps get wet, they get slick as ice. Rain drops dont hurt until they cause your million pound truck to lose control and spin in circles going downhill.
Some educational commentary would have made this great rather than all the doom and gloom pish. Couldn't watch to the end.
a20dmd, it didn’t end...they just cut the video off when another issue arose.
Lol. Jobs on the line. That's just friendly chit chat between friends.
It's like a reality TV show. Over dramatic and leads you to believe death is going to happen right as it goes to comercial
Chains for traction? And hard to fix? I fixed those every day! And the chains are used to protect the tires. It’s basically chain armor.
In the title they make it sound like the driver used a knife to cut up the tire. Actually the abrasive ground wore a hole in the chain mail around the tire. That's why those things have patching links to close the gaps.
I’ve had operators complain while I was out there fixing the equipment they broke. But I’ve never had them tell me to hurry up, because they know I am the only mechanic within 50 miles, and no one else is coming 😂. But seriously everyone I’ve ever dealt with has been really cool and grateful I was even there some even gave me lunch when a simple repair ended up being a huge one.
This morning I noticed I didn’t have anymore peanut butter for my PB&J sandwich ...and I’m going to have the guy that did this video tell people about that story so it comes across as a near death experience.😂
Punches hole in tire, chain break, oh it's the end of the world..
Fastest way to piss a mechanic off is sitting on your machine telling them to hurry up lmao
That moment when in reality the mechanics kick the operators ass lmao
No Academy Awards given out this day.
Earth: My storms will blot out the sun..
Workers: Then we will dig in the shade
MSHA is going to love this show!
Extra inspections on the way!
OSHA too!
Christopher Benson MSHA is OSHA on steroids.
@@Ben942K osha doesnt regulate mines.
At 4:40 a rain storm rolls in and turns day into night. The guy at 2:45 watering the road is now unemployed. Now his family is dangerously close to being homeless. What will he do?
"Driver Rips Massive Hole In Loader's $90K Steel Wheels"
Almost every word in that title is wrong, it´s almost a work of art.
This was ridiculous...wtf lol. Everyone in this should be embarrassed
Don't piss off the guys in charge of fixing the machine you operate that can kill you if something breaks.
Staged conflict 😂😂
That was so absurd. There's no way he's cursing them out to make them work faster. He's probably taking a break and hoping they don't finish too soon.
Whoever this narrator is, I bet he'd be equally enthusiastic in a video about drying paint...
What most viewer don’t understand is the true critical mission path of these workers. They are mining the filler weight for plastic dumbbells in every kids basement. The future of the human race depends on this to maintain earths natural balance. Gods speed men!
I was expecting a massive hole in $90k Steel Wheels
Yep, a 5 year old will love this video.
I thought going into a burning building, getting shot at or being in contact with sick people on a daily basis was dangerous and nerve wrecking, now I know that getting a hole in a mesh cover tire is the worse thing possible.
That storm came out of no where...no one could have predicted that one
Was going to leave a snarky comment about the ridiculous over dramatized narrative of more or less routine daily events but it looks like you guys have it covered. Well done, carry on.
The average car has way more than 110 hp haha. In fact the average car has double of that.
They said the loader had 3,300 hp equaling 30 cars so that's the math I used. The 3 cars I've owned in my life had hp of 170, 200 and 245.
Well they must have been referring to Honda Civics, Toyota Corollas, Chevy Prisms, and other sub-compact cars.
they really him to drift the dump truck lmao
Oh wow how do they survive the week, this is so stressful...lol
Whew massive hole in tire fixed in 5 minutes with adjustable wrench, that was a close one! XD
Sooo which was the 90,000 dollar wheel? the ones on the Dozer where it only broke the chains?, because that only damaged the chain. That wheel on dozer looked to be the more expensive when compared to the trucks wheels that got mess up in slide. When the wheel had to be replaced on the one dump truck the mines owner didnt get too upset at the replacement, so I'm doubting that was the 90g tire. Title of video should be chain AROUND 90000 dollars tire breaks... because the tire was fine.
J Shankle It’s not a dozer it’s a wheel loader.
Shocker equipment breaks.... everyday problems for the average constructionworker
"Rock in road snaps chain on TIRE of loader"
You would think 5 million dollars would get you a giant loader with air conditioning
More drama than a teenage girl! Lol
I love how much people are making fun of this 😂
I love how they dramatize this lol!
The comment section is a 1000x's more interesting than the video!!! lmao
Time? Race against the clock? Schedule? Haha calm down
In Australia when it rains all the trucks and machines have to stop work.
Is it me or is that 2350 operator TRYING to break the machine every 30 minutes
The hole wasn’t in the wheel!
If the hole was in the wheel, it would have taken alot longer to fix
5.24 the biggest vehicle drift you will ever see #big cat drift
The producers of these shows should be slapped. So much absolute bullshit editing, manufactured "drama" and over-the-top hyperbole.
Protection chains. I would have the hole fixed before he got out of the cab, ha ha made for the office people I guess.
Another Discovery Channel omg omg omg omg were all gonnadie
A leak rendering the loader powerless? Depending on how bad it actually was, maybe. Every piece of equipment at the quarry I work is at least leaking one thing lmao
right? just call the lube truck to top you off lol
I live in the anthracite coal region. This is just a typical day at the mines. This is why mines have a shop, service trucks, and full time mechanics. Not to mention lots and lots of spare parts
I used to wire those loaders and test drive before they were disassembled for shipping. Can't grasp the size until you see it in person.
Drifting that boi is badass
"Lend us a hand" Guys it's your f*cking job as mechanics to fix it
36 seconds is all I could bear to listen to
This video is so overly dramatic, it's funny. I think the one truck driver couldn't keep from laughing. You would think they would have paramedics on-site at all times.
5 million dollar machine should have at the very least have ice cold ac
No you would be surprised
Anthony Efx they do but if they break they seem to stay that way.youll have a much cleaner machine inside if it works and you can keep the windows shut against all the dust.ive been inside excavators I could barely stand to run because of the filth and sweat smell which also devalues your equipment at trade in time
@@cmonster6 yass total stank hole. No ac makes for lazy ass operator.
There multi-million dollar machines don’t have small ac systems? 😂
Dust clogs up filters for the ac and wreak havoc on the condensing system. Even the new machines have ac problems.
Did I see a guy about to use a lockout lock? Amazing!
Why the pressure? COVID-19 should teach the world that slowing down is sometimes the best way to go
Thought Arizona has in the USA, what is 60 c?
yes Arizona is in the USA. 60 Celcius is 140 degrees Fahrenheit , 50 Celcius is 122 degrees Fahrenheit, most of scientific type things in the USA are measured on the Metric scale. the units of measure are more precise in metric than the Standard scale.
Brian K do you have Google? Any 6 year.old kid could look up the conversion on Google. And yes we do use metric for some things in US. We've been buying our soda in 2 liter bottles since the 80s and speedometers had km/hour and mp/hour since I was a kid. I'm 52. And most science and medical measurements are metric.
@@michaelanderson1859 Also a lot of cars made in the U.S.A. these days have metric nuts and bolts .
@@michaelanderson1859 You totally missed the point. I don't drink soda, a gallon of milk is 128 oz and I have not seen a speed limit sign yet in the USA that is not in miles per hour. I'm 63 and wondering if you can multiply fractions without Google?
@@brianko345 he means IN the car the speedometer not speed limit signs
WRONG the chains are to save tire wear not for grip.
uhh no they are for grip too. Ever see school buses use chains? they arent trying to save their tires lol. Only way they can get grip in snow with that much weight
@@tuneless7047 I'm not saying they don't give grip, I'm saying the reason they fork out the cash for them is the money they save by slowing tire wear. The kind of chains for grip in the snow are designed completely different and have way less links in them
@@tuneless7047 It is for protection of the tire, not grip. I've worked on these machines. I've also ran them. And I can tell you the chains flat suck for traction. Our machine only runs chains on the front tires since they are exposed the most to sharp rocks in the dig face.
1:46 - 2:00 How real men communicate
I used to live in Kearny from 1959 to 1965 and my dad worked at Kennecott copper which is probably this mine
It is kennecott
Why all the drama and intense music 😂 nothing is happening
Just way over the top lmao
My buddy works at this mine they go down 2-3 times a day they are in no danger of going under they literally own the whole town it's a census controlled town
There wasn't a hole in the "wheel" it was chains that had the hole.... The wheels/rims maybe steel but the tire is rubber... Click bait or ignorance?
50c isn't the highest temp known to man, fire burns hotter than that LOL.
I want all of you to know that over 150 years ago, in the White House, I took a dump.
Thanks Abe. Just what I wanted to know 😆
Everyone knows a real loader operator would tell maintenance to take their sweet ass time. This mine is on strike right now, and has been for like 6 months, they won’t be needing that loader any time soon 😂
Nice vid thx,
The only realistic thing in this video is the ending when the loader develops a hydraulic leak. Any mechanic or electrician who has worked on them knows what I'm talking about.
Problem with that mine is that colts hat! 😁
Holy shit...a leak. Now this machine is just like every other machine ever made...
Rips GIANT hole in 90k dollar steel wheel, is there anything not clickbait on TH-cam anymore.
Very nice hat sir! GO COLTS!!!
50 C is 122+ F for those that need help with the math. Evaporating water from the small downpour+ dust kicked up by the equipment= airborne goop that gets more than everywhere.
These are skilled operators . years ! you not just jump off the street . HATS OFF ! BE SAFE !
They don’t half make it dramatic 😂
Two of my friends who were brothers worked at a mine in California and drove mining trucks. They told me they would both slid back and forth going down the road behind each other to keep their speed down. At 5:16 is exactly what they did, it wasn't because they were out of control.
Calculon called.
He wants his 'ungodly ACTING talent!' back.
Where's the do not recommend channel button. Ahh there it is.
This guy broke equipment twice in one day LOL.
What's a driver ?
That’s a drifting mining truck!
I don't know if they noticed but those chains have thousands of holes in them
