I'm not racist. I admit I'm not the greatest speaker in the world and I'm very scatter brained. My attack was not on Mexicans, I was actually trying to defend them. My attack was on the polo shirts. Those guys take advantage of hard working men and force crews to work for peanuts while they make all the money and they've never roofed a day in their life! They're the ones I have problem with! I have no issues with anybody that earns their living like this. Please no racist comments here. This ones for the boys that think they can teach people how to roof from a drone shot while other people perform the work. The dude's in office on the computer breaking down what their workers are doing. or there guys who built a platform in a closed environment! You're the problem! Where's your credibility video! Thanks for watching. Subscribe if you enjoy learning more about protecting your home! Sorry if the comments came off wrong!
As if so many ppl are fuckin sensitive these days getting hurt over words that don't mean anything they make a big deal over it. Fuck what they think just keep being you my friend who's not a racist lol
hahah thanks man. lots of sissies. but I get it. there's tension and real problems with racism that they deal with often. I expect someone to speak up if they felt insulted. just my dumbass don't know how to complete a sentence lmao
You didn’t come off as racist so all it took was 1 second of thought and I understood.
Im Mexican and easily understood what you were trying to say man 👍
I'm Mexican American and I can appreciate you taking the time to clear things up, but it was not necessary. It was clear to most people if not all. You do great work and is obvious you know what you are doing.💪👍
I made it 46 mins in, then my back started hurting and had to quit watching....
That made me laugh
Lol
Now THAT is funny!!!🤣😂🤣👍🙏
I have never done roofing or ever been interested in roofing so why the hell did I watch this whole video?!? Lol nice work
Lol I've roofed a few family members houses here and there. I hated every minute of it mainly because it was hot as hell and I hate heights and my parents house is 3 stories tall. I know how to roof I'm not the fastest but this guy taught me a few tricks so I'm glad I watched it.
I've done roofing but I too can't explain why I watched this video either lol but I've got mad respect for a blue collar worker getting it done! raising a beer to you brother!
Brandon Bogan and I found myself enjoying every bit of it
Same
motomaniac
I did a roof this size this past September. It took me all day. I was a little slower because I only worked with one hand. The other hand was holding a beer all day. Good job dude!!
You held the same beer all day?
Hell yes! Salud!
That's the right way to do it :)
so you aprove of him wearing shorts no fall arestor.... spitting down the side of the building his partner smoking pot or something... hmm
Agent Smith
Not a union job. I did residential for years. You start putting all that crap on, you’ll be working in the dark.

Worth watching for that
Sam G yea I herd that 59:02 💨😂🤣
It was boycub
😂🤣 definitely heard a fart
I thought he was farting the whole time
I think I heard a couple of them.
2am and I’m watching some dude install shingles
Lmao
Same here
I couldn't have done it that fast. It would take 20 minutes for the ambulance, 3 hours for x-rays, cast, paper work, 3 months of laying in bed, 2 months physical therapy.
Id say 6 months should cover it.
Ah this takes me back to my twenties. Glad that shits over.
You said it brother! In my 20s as well. Screw those 11/12 pitches !
I don't even own a roof, but watched the whole thing.
iseewhatyoudidthere watched this and i own a tin roof 😅
Me neither..
Ya same here I've got concrete shingles but this reminded me of the old days when I worked for a contractor watched whole vid too :)
My roof is metal . thank God
That's some back breaking work . Did condo roofs back when I was in my late teenage years . I started as a guy picking shingles off the ground an setting up , to tearing roofs off . With in a year I had a gun in one hand an shingles in the other . Times were alot different back then . So we're the people . Had a great time even thought the first twomonths in the beginning of me doing it . Kicked my ass everyday
Good job. You are definitely the fastest gringo 😅 With a little more practice you'll be as fast as an average Mexican lol.
Now that's just doggone funny, and I'm a white guy.
@@pauljaco4746 all you had to say was doggone, and everyone would know you're white.
Og Bqze and mid 60s
i was just got a say that... i had roofing company in south texas working with all my buddies mexicans.. one thing i learned pay them well they will performed well...we madevlots of money during the hell storms
The average Mexican woman
I don't know why I'm watching a guy talk to a camera and tear off a roof on my day off, but I cant seem to stop
that's when you know you made a good video! lmao! one time I watched a guy fillet an alligator for 28 minutes...I do not recommend it.
Send link to alligator fillet video XD
I love seeing a veteran brother making a living as a owner working beside his guys. leadership at it's finest Godspeed brother!
Yessir thanks!

@@NWIVeteranConstruction nice way to only reply to compliments

Hik Dingle
Are there you tube rules that mandate you reply to negative comments?
Yeah, I was cocky and fast as hell when I was your age too. Ripping off three layers in 98 degrees 99% humidity in Central Alabama. Now as and old man I wished I took things a little slower and not beat the living shit out of my body. I started in construction at 13, by 16 my brother and I would do entire homes in a day, tear off and lay. Typical 1700 SF home. We killed ourselves. Now at 60 We are stoved up and can barely move some days. Take time to be good to your body now before it's too late. All that money we made and for what? We are so beat the hell up we can barely enjoy life. It's not always about speed. Speed is only important if you want to make good money fast. That thought process after 20-30 years gets old fast. But good job young man! Keep busting your ass doing roofing. Call me in 30 years.
@Roald Shakleton no, 60+30=90
If you're still alive in 30 years that would be amazing.
Ok, I think you guys are missing the fucking point. It seems I have to explain....The lesson kids is not wether I'll be around in 30 years, but to try and take care not to kill yourself while your young, I'm paying a huge price for "timing" my work when I was young and strong, in construction and in the military. See class, when you beat the living shit out of your body for 40+ years, you will pay the price and all for chasing that almighty dollar bill. I hope today's lesson is a little more clearer. And for you smartass pricks pointing out the obvious of 30 years equalling 90 that's great you can add! Call me in 30 years, is considered a descriptive future occurrence. In others words a matter of speech, it's not literal. Understand now boys and girls? Stop killing yourself, take time to work smart not hard. You'll wish you had, got it? But, what do I know, nothing. Do as you please. I know I wish I had listened to the old timers back in the day! I was cocky and thought I knew everything. I still don't know shit. I do know one thing, my broken up, arthritis and cancer ridden body hurts like a bitch every damn day now. I'll give you one guess why! But go ahead act like the badasses that you think you are and have fun with that. And you can still call me in 30 years!
@@robertcaudill2544 decompression exercises. They do wonders while a worker as well as retired.
I started roofing at 13 too 37 now and i feel 57 started off toting shingles up a ladder for roofers and worked first 8 years nailing with a hammer it takes a toll on ur body fact
I’m Mexican and I didn’t take your comments wrong. I understood what you were saying. I just started my own roofing company and I have been learning a lot from your videos.
dam right! anyone can do roofing you just proved it.
I Dont see many that can keep pace with me. I love how you worked through the pain, and when you saw the end in sight, you turned it up, Oorah🇺🇸💥
Your not looking in the right pllaces
this dude been on more roofs than santa clause...and i drank two beers watching this.
the cameraman smoked like 3 packs of cigs. due is a chimney
@@marine2tough he was smoking green cigs haha
Did you edit the part out when you fell off the roof?
The camera guy smokes mad herb

@@jimmyjackz best way for the body aches.
@@gasser5001 lol I've did about 10-15 roofs in my life helping a buddy of mine and I've never seen a roof get torn off or put back on without greenery.
@@jimmyjackz gotta pass the the drug test! As in you bring your drugs we wanna test em!
Never tried mad herb, I dabble with the happy though
Thank you for your service first and foremost...
I personally like watching your videos. I learned how to roof by accident earlier this year by telling a buddy i would help him on one and from there I just took off. There's a lot I still have to learn, however watching your videos has increased my speed to where I can throw 18-20 square a day by myself depending on pitch and weather conditions. Thats not too bad for a guy who learned five months ago from scratch. Keep making videos and giving folks a chance to learn and I will keep watching.
Great job dude. But take it from someone who's laid down a few squares, old school, start seeing a chiropractor now. Good luck
I'm seeing that chiropractor now ! I decked and roofed homes/apartments around Tulsa for about 4 years and that's all I wanted. Car wreck didn't help which was after roofin.
I love the stagnet corner.
Lol
That was pure life joy there

i,m always amazed with bizarre u.s.a roofs ! it looks like the country is still controlled by big oil ! in australia we lay a roof once for a lifetime of service .our terracotta or cement tiles go way past a hundred yrs & our original corrugated steel sheeted roofs from the 1800,s are still serviceable to today , direct coastal exposure is our only exception to longevity being about 60 to 70 yrs , i guess you guys just accept what your being served up , but their are long lasting alternatives for you all !
Terracotta doesn't do well in the winter. Freezing weather causes terracotta and cement tiles to crack and break that is why you only see shingle and metal roofs in the northern parts of the states.
@@thinkingcashew6 Slate, Wood shake. Slate is good for 150 yrs.
john ryan wood will rot from moisture after 10 years or so, at least that’s what happened with my old house. And slate is more expensive than asphalt shingles
@@RaceboyYT Wood roofing lasts 35-40 yrs when installed correctly. It needs to be installed on slats so that the cedar can breathe underneath. There is a product called cedar breather that is used when you install on solid decking, If you don't install in either of these 2 methods then yes it will rot quickly. Someone who knows how to roof would never install wood shingles directly onto the decking. And yes, slate is very expensive. But stone or slate is absolutely the best roofing material. Easily lasting 150 yrs. Easy to repair, if you're a roofer. You get what you pay for in roofing material.
@@thinkingcashew6 they use slates and tiles in Denmark and they have no problems, these shingles will cost you more in the long run and to be honestly look tacky
Dude why our you nailing below the nail line that's why it's there so once the sun seals it there's no leaks from rusty nails years down line I'm just saying hit that tar nail line. Just how I was taught.
the actual seal down strip is on the bottom back of the shingle.. where he is nailing, nails another row across the top of the previous shingle laid.. putting 10 nails per shingle instead of 5...
He is nailing on the nail line. GAF HD shingle nail line is just above the sawtooth and below the seal strip
I’m w the goat. I don’t feel bad putting 4 nails because it’s really 8 nails a shingle.
you need to learn your shit boi, its a HD shingle.
@@troyzupancich9550 if those are the new GAF HDZ the nail line is the tar line
They should create a labor Olympics.
Events would include:
Masonry
Framing
Roofing
Skilled carpentry
Landscaping
Auto
Metal work.
They do. Check it out sometime its pretty intense!
@@luisruelas6899 really? What's it called?
@@imtypingwords check out the IDEAL national championships for electricians. I've seen some for bricklayers and masonry and im sure there's some for those other trades you mentioned. TH-cam is a gift from above lol
Masonry has a competition. Winner gets thousands in tools to help their business or for themselves.
Just about every trade has a competition. It's crazy because the judges measure with a level, string and ruler. It's all built to code and with speed with 0 errors. True masters of their craft.
The last comp I saw had a winner out of AZ.
They do, it's called The World Skills Olympics and it's held biennially.
Oh yeah I forgot. In the 70's we didn't have pneumatic coil roofing nailers. Nail apron and a hammer brother. That was it! Old school!
Realy nice to see someone who is good at his job.Hard work, skills, and pride. Cool video. I can roof, but not quite like that. Hats off to ya!
im just here for the comment's cant stop Laughing at those.
Yup, my back started hurting just watching you carry those bundles around and bending over so much, 49 and one back surgery in the bank in 2012, I have a 2 comp and 1 wood shingle tear off and 3/4" decking replacement in a few spots on my house 22ish square. It's probably gonna kill me lol. Appreciate the videos, My parents roofed back in the 70's, would nail my pant legs down to the roof when I was 4 to keep me in one spot, that was daycare in the 70's for me lol. Course it was all 3 tab, t-locks and shakes back then in the panhandle of Oklahoma. No modern day shingle loading like these days, and no fiberglass in the shingles till later on. I still have AJC roofing hatchets from that era and the nail holders one would wear around ones neck to slide the nails out the side..
Ahhhhahaha man this is my favorite story from any comment ever on my channel. Amazing how the world's changed so much. Definitely will be nailing my son's to the roof one day! And best of luck with your reroofs
You should pin it to the top, it was my favorite also. @@NWIVeteranConstruction
I'm Mexicana and a roofer my self bro. lol you ain't telling no lies. You have skill. Much respect
I like that trick where he runs three consecutive full shingles in a row to the left (and you think to yourself wtf is he doing?) ... and then he trims the upper most by 1/3 and then cuts the quarter notch from the one below it ... those cuts seems counter-intutive at first but they obviously work. That's a pretty slick trick. (And the bonus ... because they are partially nailed, no need to have one hand holding the shingle and one hand on the knife)
That plus how he lays out all of his full bundles in exactly the right place making it easy to reach and transfer to the successive laddering course above is the epitome of efficient.
Really impressed with how smart and quick you ran this.
My father was a roofer for over 45 years. I have four brothers and we all know the trade. You nailed it, it's his prep that makes him as good as he is. Don't forget, this is him goofing around on a weekend...
yep fast, butt the waste stub will wear deeper faster and the cuts allow water seepage too. Ok n for a flat garage.. probably can't see our from the road and if you didn't know why the overlap is important it wouldn't matter. In any case, wish I had my back back... 😏 be careful dude and best wishes to you
That fast moving action reminds me of Benny Hill! =D
I have done construction my whole life and u r one of the fastest roofers I have ever seen and who cares if you didn't snap a line i was watching the top of your shingles with the lines and writing on the felt paper and they looked straight with that u did one heck of a nice job and I have never seen felt paper like that I have always used black paper 15 or 30 pound I like the look of yours a whole lot better well keep up the good work buddy have a good day and God bless you and your family
6:12 I really like how you mentioned the fact that the "polo shirt people" have their stages showing the viewers how to do it when in reality all they do is talk about it and they have the real workers behind the scenes doing the actual work while the polo shirt people rake in the benefits. You DO the actual work.
oh yes. my biggest pet pieve
I won't dare wear a polo/ golf shirt partly for this reason.
13:25 *drops hammer trying to do a trick* " that's embarrassing" *boycub laughs* " shutup boycub" 😂😂
EDIT: spelling (and slow it down to .5 to hear that funny conversation)
Little exaggeration on worlds fastest roofer. Speed of a normal worker in any roofing company
Alex Kate Likhonin well he is white and his work is fast but correctly done so taking everything into perspective I’d hire him
@@TheTinkle1 lol
i have a friend with a roofing company and they wont use a gun and are faster with hammers than that gun you should see these guys go !!!!!!
Lol I know guys that can run circles around you.
Please post a video I’d watch it.
tired from just watching this... i remember the back pain
Tell us about your back when your 40! lol. But, you are a badass worker.
at The 1 Hour Mark You cut The Shingles & You cut Though The Felt on The Roof at TheSame Time, I would have used a Piece of Bord to cut on so That would Not have Happened, Just a Suggestion for You to Help.
Thank You & Please Stay Safe Especially When You're Not Tied off with Fall Protection & again Thank You.
You are a credit to the trades. Your ability to mix best practices with field knowledge and tips make your videos some of the best.
I have great respect for you for tearing that shingle up when you nailed on the side lap. Every shingle company I know of sends it
In my day we did it with hammer and nail we had one guy that was damn near as fast as he was with that air hammer to this day Ive seen no one matching him he's probably dead now though... that was back in 91 we did housing duplex 21 apartments long on each side that had to be the biggest job we had ....I could recall we had a crew of 20

This guy is an awesome roofer that knows his trade but broke every OSHA rule in the book
Nothing would get done if everybody followed bullshit OSHA rules, bunch of pencil pushing doofus’s that have never picked up a fucking tool in their life!
@oShane Kasper that is a correct statement but as a power plant worker I believe it was designed to save lives and reduce injuries for the industrial craft workers of America. This may not be applicable to the independent contractor but important nonetheless .
Residential guy dont gaf about osha
Genie Harris yeah... just wait when they pass by or someone snitches and then ends up with a huge fine by the end of the day.safety comes first in my company. It’s money out of my pocket
My dad owns a roofing company and working with him we do everything almost the same as this guy
While I agree you could make more by slowing down and milking it, however making $1k in an hour and a half means you can knock out 10 houses a day and make more than if you milked the job for 15 hours. 10k between you and maybe 3 other people is a pretty damn good day in my opinion
HE BELIEVES THAT HE IS FAST! HA HA HA... LOL I SEEN MEXICAN AND HONDURAN GUYS WORKING IN A MORE DIFFICULT PITCH. FASTER THAN YOUR. YOU PICK THE EASIEST PITCH. YOU HAD TO INCREASE THE SPEED OF THE VIDEO TO MAKE YOU LOOK FAST. I KNOW ABOUT ROOFING... FROM 1 TO10 I’LL GIVE YOU 6*
I really enjoy all your videos and have been learning a lot from your input and technique. I am getting ready to fully sheet and shingle the roof of our first home next month and have been taking notes! Thank you for all the information. As a tradesman myself I respect your work ethic and willingness to share from your experiences.
thanks ! be sure to hit that sub button for me then! I'd appreciate it!

Nice video, please use glasses man, your eyes are so precious. Just never know when something can go south.
I tell all the jobs on the jobsite." you only get 1 set of eyes"
@@Noold did you also invent glasses that don't fog up the minute you start sweating? Otherwise those things are more likely to get you called than anything.
@@bobcougar77 OVER 300,000 People go to the ER every year for eye injuries. 90% of those injuries were preventable.
Buy a nice pair of anti fog glasses.
@@Noold I've tried, if you've got a recommendation I'm all ears. I don't believe they exist. In the real world tradesmen where glasses for short bursts when they are doing something dangerous. I didn't see this guy do anything likely to throw something in his eye. slightly more dangerous to his eyes than walking to your office. A far greater danger is not seeing a slip hazard due to walking around blind with "safety" glasses
Agreed. Protect your eyes as you would your camera lenses. Might wanna throw some gloves on too 😎
Also very confused at the title of the video. Are you starting the roof til the world's fastest dude gets back from lunch?
No gloves? Tear off/throwing shingles i go through gloves like nothing.
Should have use a go pro and a helmet mount and had him handing you shingles. Nobody is that greedy to shingle a house that size by there self. Gloves, Gloves, You going to scratch the skin off your wife.
We call those bitch mittens lol
hes working so fast ,sometimes i see smoke coming from his ass lol
As a roofer (in training) from the UK. I found this video to be highly useful. Mainly because we don't use shingle over here. It's usually slate or tile we work with. So it's always nice to see varying forms of the trade!
why do you leave a gap between your first and second nail going from right to left. ". ...."
allritythen I wondered that too. We always put four nails in em
You don't want a nail where your next course is gonna butt together
It's guy like you that make America great. Your father must be very proud of you
This is strangely satisfying..
Credibility check: Well, I'd say none. I don't want a "fast" roofer trying to prove a point and taking shortcuts or banging nails as fast as possible. I want quality and a roof that won't leak, not broken boards and nails that will push up more easily later because they were hit with a hammer like a madman.
I was taught to never cut into the surface you're working on, hated seeing the cuts in the white plastic. But i'm not familiar with this type of roofing, i was impressed with the speed it can be done. We hardly see any shingles here in the Netherlands.
Economy of motion = accomplishing the maximum amount of work with the fewest movements possible.
This is true. I've worked in a few factories and assembly lines and the fastest workers are the ones that make everything look smooth and effortless.
Using the tip of the nail gun to stabilize yourself and locate the right lower edge of each shingle simultaneously...very ergonomic.
Its disgusting!!!! And how much time on the ground ZACK?
Garbage haha to busy rushing to prove a point hope he went back and did the job properly
I’m a 17 year old roofer and Im just starting to get in to nailing everyday and it’s very helpful to learn your time saving tricks because out there it’s rare for another roofer to help you or teach you something you have to learn by watching them
a roofer teach you something? oh thats funny kid...... you might as well ask an ugly girl to be pretty. that's not possible.
Hey I wasn’t sure if you noticed but you have a miss Call. Just wanted to let you know
thanks
Your phone is full of spam.
@@gerald4027 I Agree! "THANKS"?
Ok, so he's decent, but FAR from the "Worlds Faster Shingler". Click bait. Nothing more.
I really like your method of cut your starter strip while you go In stead of cutting ahead of time. You don't have to mess with them laying around. It seem be in your way alot. It is nicer to have someone to lay the next shingle in place while nailing them down. But you have someone that works the pace of you. Because it's really irritating when you have to wait on someone that is slow. I did roofing in the 70's and the nail gun looks the same. I really enjoyed roofing. Nice job!
Dumb question. What are the little black lines at the end. Looks like very small gaps? Like it didn't look flush. If the wind was blowing and the rain got in the side. Wouldn't it start leaking?
Not sure what you're talking about but if you mean the seams then no
First video I’ve watched from you , and it made me laugh the comments you make because 99% of them are true , definitely going to keep watching your videos !!
Then do me a solid and Hit that sub button my man!
It looks like the roof had another 5 years left in it.
Why wait til there's a problem to fix it though? It was old they wanted a new one coz they could afford it at the time
experience makes things happen faster......just ask my wife ;)
lol 1 pump chump
not peeling the tar tape off.. slicing on top of the paper.. no good.
Every home on my street, including mine, has lost numerous shingles in high winds because the roofers did not remove the plastic strip that covers the line of tar across the back of every shingle.
I kept watching all the way through wondering how or when he was going to removed that clear protective strip. The fact that he never addressed it makes me wonder if he is clueless, or sloppy because he was in a hurry.
I always use starters up my bleeder edge ... and yes your a real roofer ... I'm a female roofer and have been doing it for 15 years I've seen it all lol you meet all kindz thats for sure.. I love it for the money involved, roofing is a real lucritive business, the world will always need dried in roof over they head lol keep up the good work !$:)
i doubt any experienced, in their prime, roofers would find this impressive, but enjoyed the video, thumbs up from me.ROOFLIFE
Roofing hasn't been done like this where I live for about 40 years. No one uses nails anymore.
@@Pow3llMorgan staples then?
@@JustinKork It's welded down, or we use tiles.
Felt goes under the metal on the rakes. Read the directions
He mentions that in the video. I can imagine the reason for metal over felt, but it'd be nice to see some lab experiments or real data-backed study on how much it matters.
It makes no difference because you put shingles over it
Some dude farting throughout the video.
You have Economy Of Motion which means every move is forward. I'm learning a great deal of useful information from your videos. Liked and subscribed. Randy from North Alabama.

To all you people in the comments saying "oh he's not that fast, I know x person thats much faster":
He wasnt even really humping it that hard, he's showing how you can get shit done reasonably fast by not wasting motion. I doubt many of you can tear off and put back 2sq in an hour or two by yourself at his pace because none of you are probably at this efficiency level. You may be able to do it in the same amount of time, but you'll be huffing and panting like a bear in heat by the time you're done.

Boss job 👍🏼👍🏼.. I’m sure the Mrs appreciated the efforts too. Could do without vap-boy dorking up the shots with his smoke crop dusting the video though.
Lmao you be nice to boycub! He's my protegé
lol the homeowner once they leave sees all the nails in the grass haha
Most roofers and carpenters( such as myself) have literally a magnet wand(magnet on a stick) they will pass over the ground collecting all metal objects including nails.
S Will Denn unfortunately we don’t have roofers like you in many parts or even put that extra dedication and just leave there trash everywhere
I been roofer for 7 years old school style. Hammer and nails with just myself and owner doing roof repairs to 100+ square roofs in Texas year-round. Just a year ago I left that job due to a love but soon will be moving back to start my own roofing company. Watching videos like these helps me see how much different others like to roof and I take a little from each video to try and make a quick but quality job out of each one I plan on doing. Great video and keep up the great work!!!
I like how you finish the edges. Way faster than cutting them in. Happy I learned something new from this video.
My question is why u tearing off good dementional shingles thats why its comin off so easy. They look a day old.
The roof leaked ;-)
Man! U r good at what u do!
I really like ur technique .
thanks bud!
You keep missing the "tat- tat" - when using the nail gun - as in "Rat tat tat tat tat...." and you just left us hangin' :(
It's an old n series Bostic nailer, he'd prob be more efficient with newer equip. Less misfiring
Here in Florida, it would be Rat tat tat tat tat tat....6 nails per shingle
he doesn't even have the old roof off yet and i'm already tired.I just had my roof replaced and that's too much work for me. good job
thank you for your service. and for the video. good to watch other craftsmen at work.
