I'm in Southern Ohio checking out the Big Muskie Bucket at the Coal Miner's Memorial. The Big Muskie was the worlds largest dragline today only the bucket remains. After that I'm driving around the area looking at fall leaf colors.

Wow! My best friend, Nice one video. Love for you also best wishes to you, Carry on dear.
Thank you! Cheers!
Good memory of big muskie!
It is interesting
This is one of the better videos I've seen about Big Muskie great footage I plan on taking a motorcycle trip from s.western pa over to Big Muskie to see it for myself after leaving this comment definitely looking forward to it.
Thank you! Sounds good, hope you enjoy your trip!
I. Like. Your. Vidio. Mr. Singh
Thank you!
My Father helped build this crane and the New River Gorge Bridge, etc . (He has gone to the Bye and Bye this year. We buried him in the hills of WV) He was a very good crane operator that built mostly bridges from WV to MT. I got to grow up in both Eastern and Western America because of this. After he passed, videos like this started popping up in my TH-cam channel. It is a bit surreal. Anyhow, Thanks for the video.
Thanks for your comment. Sounds like he was an interesting person. Cherish the memories.

BUCKETNYA BESAR SEKALI YA
Interesting. It is really a Massive bucket.
Yeah, it is, would've been neat to see the whole machine.
I grew up in South Milwaukee, WI where Big Muskie including the bucket were built, than transported there.. Pretty cool to see the history of after seeing pictures and hearing stories as a kid.
That would be neat, thanks for sharing. I didn't know where it was built.
@@fortheexperiencechannel I remember going to the Barber Shop in town where the walls were covered with old BE drag-lines and other stuff. I have many uncles who worked there up until they closed. Sat many days in the late 70's watching trains leave there.
This happens to be one of my favorites!
Thank you
Pretty cool video
Thank you
Wow 🤩 that bucket is huge 😃 I should see if I can stop by and make a video too 👍
Yeah it's interesting to see in person.
@@fortheexperiencechannel Easy enough to find. Coming from I77, head west on SR78. It is on the left just before McConnellsville, at Ohio Power Park. It was wild to watch that thing work when I was a kid.
Just imagine that bucket piled full of some of the rocks around it, or just dirt, or sand, well over half a million pounds. The Big Muskie could drag it to fill it, hoist it, swing it as far as 500 feet away, and maybe to 160 feet of elevation, or more, and dump it, all like it was a kids toy, in less than a minute, or maybe two.
😯😯😯😯😯😯
Thanks for watching
A friend of mine moved that bucket to that location.
Wow that must have been a big job. Glad they did it. Nice to be able to see the bucket today.
@@fortheexperiencechannel I think he said it weighed 600,000#.
I cannot quickly find it now, but there was a website with photos of the bucket move. The Internet stole the man’s photos I am sure. They used what I call a military semi-tractor and a scraper to pull the bucket up some of the hills to get it where it is now.
I watched them set it up once I cleared the land to build the pad to set it on
Awesome. That would've been neat to see. Thanks for watching.
Looks the size of the box on a 797 haul truck.
Yeah probably close. Looks like the bucket is 220 cubic yards. Thanks for watching.
Even when expecting to see a large dragline bucket, it surprised me how large it really is.
The Bucket 230cuy-170m3
Thanks for watching
The chains have to be that thick so they don’t self destruct from hitting hitting the box and themselves. Each time the chains hit the box is like hitting it with a sledge hammer. Cables could not be used for they would be destroyed within days. Anything touching the box is all chains. 😳
Thanks for watching.
Put a roof on it and make it a gift shop
How many cubic yards ? Weight of the bucket?
It looks like 220 cubic yards, 325 tons of dirt. There's some interesting facts starting at 10:29 in the video. Thanks for watching.
@@fortheexperiencechannel Yeah. I asked the question before the video was done.
They say Muskie burnt a 1/3 of the coal it unearthed.
It could be. I knew it took enough electricity to power 27,500 homes. I've wondered how much coal that would have been.
I have tried to guess the net energy of surface mining coal. There is an awful lot of variables. I figure Big Muskie may have used as much as half of what it produced when adding in the energy to make it in Milwaukee, transport it to Ohio. The “Cradle-to-grave” energy use numbers often used to compare coal to solar/wind/hydro anyway.
I suppose if you include the grief value and lost wages felt by the dinosaur family when they died… 🤣
