Can’t tell you how many times I have thought that! I have learned to look at the reflection in his window to see where he ate breakfast and if the cup changes after lunch 🤣😬
Way to go United Rentals. Might want to make sure your customer doesn't have the best construction channel on TH-cam which also has quite a few subscribers who probably have to rent. Now we know where not to go. 🙂
I thought we'd see constant dental issues, but instead I'm impressed at how long you've gone without missing a tooth. Very good choice on those teeth. Starting to get into flipping incredible range.
The coordination between you and the bolder buster guy was pretty sweet. Tough job for both of you. While the cam is steady, I've never seen your body bounce around so much. What a grueling project for you and never a complaint. Kudos!
In the area south of the Houston Texas area, we don't have rocks. We have 50 feet of mud under everything. We have to build slabs to float on the mud. For heavy buildings, we drill down about 30 to 40 feet, use a bell attachment and fill the hole with rebar and concrete. Man that stuff is hard on buckets and the machine!
Wow it is so nice to see two people that know how to run machinery work together!! It's like watching a dance the way it should be!!! looked like it was pretty successful to me?? They should have done better but you did better than they could have done!! That's why you get the big money to repair your machinery after such abuse!! Awesome video to show reality of digging in Carolina Rock country!! I hope people that have visits there in the future consider the effort put into that property they need to think about how much it cost to build that vet clinic for them!! And pay the people that take care of their pets..what their true worth is!! You don't spend a half a million or more dollars if you don't care about animals!!!
You're like a drill Sargent...Just when he seemed close to finishing, you pile on more 😁. I know that if I ever needed to hire you, I would be proud because of your effectiveness and workmanship.
Guy on the Hammer, Alright, 1 more to go and I'll call it a Early Day. Who 's this guy ? Wait a minute, he's digging up more ? Get's phone out..... Hello Honey, yeah I'll be working late Tonight.
@@scruffy6151 lol,, I would guess he might actually be happy that someone else is pulling the rocks out of the ground and he doesn't have to flick them out of the ground himself with the hammer.
These big rock videos make me feel at home, here on the slopes of Mt Rainier in western Washington we dig up round river boulders as big as houses. Always satisfying to see them crunched into manageable pieces after they’ve given you hell for a day or more.
Chris is like I need change for this big rock, come back with dump truck full....if there was a River near by that needed a jetty now is the time... keep rocking/working Chris !!
I bet the guy on the hammer drill was happy you showed up to make his day way easier. He seen you moving those boulders and was like yes I dont have to move around and drive over all these rocks.
Chris its to bad you couldn't find any landscaper to take the large boulders for there landscaping project. They could use the rocks to build a stone retaining wall and crush the rocks for fill behind the wall and use some of the boulders for the landscaping on this project. Keep up the great work.
You two double teaming this rock issue is working very well. Let him start early AM, you show up mid to late morning and hit it hard till the whistle blows at quitting time. Lots of Rip Rap rocks there.
Hey Chris, at 12:00 I thought oh-oh there goes the wind shield, one little chip breaks off, and good bye window. I think the people that picked that property, should have bought it for a gravel pit. Have a great weekend: }
Love the cup reflecting on front glass looks like you are toting it in the bucket. Lol. That has been a rough ride, I don't think I have ever seen the cab move that much when you are working.
Chris stands watching the "Hammer" work... turns and looks at the Volvo... and thinks to himself... wonder if they make one of those to fit on the Volvo 😂
The guy on the hammer has got one hell of a teddies job breaking that rock he must of upset his boss I've worked on red sandstone in the UK with a air driven impact hammer and I had to move the drewbar compressor with me and and my god that was one hell of a mind breaking job and after 6 week of this work I lost the plot and jacked the job in and got a proper job driving a moter scraper being pushed with a big cat or 2 behind me, thanks for another great video on the animal hospital site it's one of your job's I'm following with great interest, Mick.
@@ko9446 Yeah, but did he order a dozen "blue teepee's" to catch the drainage??? I still cannot figure out the math on this stuff, but a half a yard of soda going in seems to make a full yard of liquid coming out!!! Some sort of magic.
'The Rock is Right Show' Chris-> "Behind which Rock is the Deal of the Day? Is it Rock #1? Rock #2 or is it Rock #3?" Hammer guy--> "I'll take Rock #3" Chris--> "Let me show you what is behind Rock#3..More Rock and a the chance to buy a Brand New Hammer Bit!" Hammer guy--> "What was behind Rock #2 and #1?" Chris--> "More Rock" Hammer guy-->"I need a Pepsi"
Rock n roll! Nice shots with the camera facing out those were some big rocks. Can that be used for rip rap? At least it wasn't Manhattan Schist! The camera never stopped shaking loved it.
I wouldn’t pay that bill without talking to that stores DM first. Credits are issued all the time for that kind of stuff. I know I spent 15 years in the rental industry. Good luck and God bless!
Well I remember a few videos back your had mentioned that there was going to be a retaining wall along the tree line sure it'd be a pretty retaining wall if they could reuse those rocks to build a retaining wall it would save hauling them away also there's some beautiful stone there and I wish I had had them when I was building the front of my house I probably had 40 50 ton of rock in mine come out beautiful I don't see why you couldn't use them you got to buy cement in the truck anyways so why not put a few extra guys to work hope see you the next one soon thanks for keeping up the good work
What a tough big rock as hopefully use an 45t or 36t excavator with bigger rock breaker! What we use in quarry is an 30t or 36t with rock breaker for aggressive rock very hard rock in Australia 🇦🇺.
I’m thinking that when this bolder job is complete that Chris will be thinking about a trade. That Volvo is getting the crap shook out of it and the whole bucket attachment is getting 3 times the wear as usual. At least getting thrown around in that seat is good exercise..
Businesses can take out huge loans based on current and projected profits. Way bigger than most peoples mortgages if their turnovers high enough (or if they’re just starting a business, but their plan looks solid enough to the bank/investors).
7 months so far of ledge and rock on my site. Sewer is 10 to 23ft at the deepest. I'm in a cat 349 rental and it's still real rough digging. Blasting and hammering every day.
I know what thats like. I was on a job 9 months breaking rock 10-12 hrs a day. The only thing I liked was it was in a Volvo ec350 with 35hrs when I started.
This scene reminds me of a week we spent at a resort in Cuba. Workers were digging irrigation line trenches through the iron hard coral rock. All week. With pneumatic jack hammers . In 40 degree Celsius heat! Poor buggers.
Chris, I know what you mean about United Rentals. They're a rip off. I inquired about a skidsteer with a mulcher and was quoted almost $4000. a week pius $350 to deliver and $350 to pickup. I love your videos. Stay Safe and God Bless.
I wonder if they would let you use temporary speed bumps to deter people from speeding in a construction zone or when one lane is closed on a two lane. I always go slow like 15-25 depending on road width and people. Also I bet that rock would be good for filling in muddy spots on a farm and covering with crushed stone
I think Chris is tryen to show off his excavator , picking up the big rocks, throwing them around, really ripping into them ..he's never that violent with his machine, seems that hammer is a bad influence :P
@letsdig18...in your opinion is work like that hard on the seals of the hydraulic pistons on them excavators....constantly prying on heavy bolders?...always been curious to other operators opinions on that....
As this started I thought "Why is Chris carrying his drink in the bucket?"
Then realised its a reflection 😂🤣😂🤣
Thought it was a 5 gallon bucket at first.
I did too... I was thinking dang Chis is thirsty today... lol
Can’t tell you how many times I have thought that! I have learned to look at the reflection in his window to see where he ate breakfast and if the cup changes after lunch 🤣😬
I thought it was a really big drink.
i was fooled lol, i thought he was gonna burn some brush at first bucket oh fuel lol
As a dad, I can either watch this or clifford cartoons to avoid a toddler meltdown. Please keep uploading videos!
Hammer operator: "...just about ready to wrap up this section!"
Chris: "yeah, give me a second, I might find a couple more for ya!"
Love this!
Yea. That guy was probably thinking, "Duuuddddeeeee.. STOP THAT!!!"
That guy had to cry every time you pulled another bolder out 😆
This is the job that turns you into an alcoholic. Poor hammer operator
I would love that job.
Chris just kept feeding him. Saying here chew on this one for a while. Lol God bless
Nah, I don't mind it. Those rocks are my bread and butter.
Teamwork, what a concept. I bet neither of you expected to get that much accomplished that day.
Breaker guy.....”man I’m glad that’s over”
Chris “Wait, hold my drink” 😂
. . . and if he's getting $50 an hour with nothing booked tomorrow - "Thank you".
Finally boulders broke, I will be glad to see this project DUN.... has to be HARD on your machine....
It's been oddly difficult to watch, too. I fast forward through most of it. Like watching someone trying to chew Grape Nuts.
Yeah its Not Done yet, still a lot more grading and finishing to do, though this is the most progress for sure.
I bet it's going to be new teeth time for that bucket!!!
Didn't they just replace the teeth 6 weeks ago? Or was that the little excavator? 🤔🤔🤔
@@karlschupp8552 He had teeth welded on the skid-steer a week or two ago.
Way to go United Rentals. Might want to make sure your customer doesn't have the best construction channel on TH-cam which also has quite a few subscribers who probably have to rent. Now we know where not to go. 🙂
Right? I know where I wont be renting from.
Anyone that's ever been around a ho ram knew that rental unit was a POS
"Its a rental, no need to be gentle"
Blasting company: we broke ALL the boulders
Chris: hold my sweet tea
LMAO
The power of those excavators is just mind blowing to me. Very cool
Great video!! Thanks for sharing, Icy cold and 2 feet of snow out here in Canada so I appreciate the entertainment!!!!!
I thought we'd see constant dental issues, but instead I'm impressed at how long you've gone without missing a tooth. Very good choice on those teeth. Starting to get into flipping incredible range.
they have hardly worn any
makes my toes curl up watching you dig rocks, but i can't stop watching.
Makes me lift out of my chair trying to help him pull them rocks out. wow its hard work.
The coordination between you and the bolder buster guy was pretty sweet. Tough job for both of you.

I can imagine the breaker guy saw a few bolders, half day, home by lunch. Chris busts his bubble as he digs up more and more monsters!!!

Cooperation sure seems to work way better! You are showing a life lesson Chris!
Every time I see you working the Animal hospital ground. It reminds me of Fred Flintstone.
Hey Fred flinstone is back with his mate Barney rubble.
They certainly are working very hard
Looks like Godzilla meets the giant scorpion.
Just another day in bedrock
I like your videos
You're like a drill Sargent...Just when he seemed close to finishing, you pile on more 😁. I know that if I ever needed to hire you, I would be proud because of your effectiveness and workmanship.
He's just trying to save the guy coming out again!
Notice he never abuses his equipment
Guy on the Hammer,
Alright, 1 more to go and I'll call it a Early Day. Who 's this guy ? Wait a minute, he's digging up more ?
Get's phone out.....
Hello Honey, yeah I'll be working late Tonight.
😄
@@scruffy6151 lol,, I would guess he might actually be happy that someone else is pulling the rocks out of the ground and he doesn't have to flick them out of the ground himself with the hammer.
OT baby
@@kiljoysvnzr0 very ttue.
Lol Guy on hammer , I thought I got em all.😂👍
Chris that’s a lot of rock! Hopefully not everyone is losing money on this job. Thanks for sharing. Kevin
Can you imagine having to bust all that rock by hand. They used to break them with hand drills and feathers and wedges. Some places they still do!
Chris, as I was watching you pry thos big rocks out, I started twisting in my seat trying to help lol. What a tough job this turned into.
now that is talent right off! Not even spilling drink while holding it in bucket lol! Only took a second to know it was a reflection but still funny!
These big rock videos make me feel at home, here on the slopes of Mt Rainier in western Washington we dig up round river boulders as big as houses. Always satisfying to see them crunched into manageable pieces after they’ve given you hell for a day or more.
I betcha every time that operator looked up saw you digging more out,said to himself ( oh shit ) and just shook his head.great video 👍👍👍😎😎😎
Well Said...Well said... would be tough running that all day with my bad back & neck, Hope that Cat has an upgraded air ride seat
Probably not...he's getting paid
I agree with Jason Hendrix. Everytime Chris pulls out more rocks, the other operator is like. Mo Money!!!!!
"What did you do today?"
"Threw rocks at my buddy!"
Chris is like I need change for this big rock, come back with dump truck full....if there was a River near by that needed a jetty now is the time... keep rocking/working Chris !!
I bet the guy on the hammer drill was happy you showed up to make his day way easier. He seen you moving those boulders and was like yes I dont have to move around and drive over all these rocks.
I feel the earth movin under my feet,
I feel the sky come a tumblin down
Chris its to bad you couldn't find any landscaper to take the large boulders for there landscaping project. They could use the rocks to build a stone retaining wall and crush the rocks for fill behind the wall and use some of the boulders for the landscaping on this project. Keep up the great work.

It’s one of those jobs you can’t wait till it’s finished all new pins and bushings for the 220
Hey Chris, at 12:00 I thought oh-oh there goes the wind shield, one little chip breaks off, and good bye window. I think the people that picked that property, should have bought it for a gravel pit. Have a great weekend: }
Seeing the awesome power of and excavator never ceases to amaze me
Wife "how was your day honey"
Husband "busy, the boss has been bustin' my boulders all day".
Love the cup reflecting on front glass looks like you are toting it in the bucket. Lol. That has been a rough ride, I don't think I have ever seen the cab move that much when you are working.
Chris stands watching the "Hammer" work... turns and looks at the Volvo... and thinks to himself... wonder if they make one of those to fit on the Volvo 😂
You don’t want a hammer on a nice machine...in 6 weeks it becomes a shit machine....the hammer destroys the hydrologics and pins
@@paulthesoundguy1 Yep. We have an old 330b as our hammering excavator. Doesn’t get used often and it’s already worn out so it’s perfect for it

Enjoyed the video. Have a new appreciation when Chris says he found rock!!
I nominate this as the absolute best site for building a rock garden!
My back hurt just watching you! That looks brutal.
What happens to all that Rock?
You should truck it to your farm and sell it for landscaping .
It would build nice feature garden walls.
That looks brutal in your cab. I bet you are sore after all day of getting tossed around. Great video and job.
Probably no worse than a Rodeo Bronc Rider, but those guys ask for it. They think it is fun.
That was some beautiful heavy equipment, rock busting choreography.
Anyone thinking of adding a rockery to their garden? lol!
That bucket and thumb have sure earned their keep on this job.
At the beginning of the video, if you look into the loader, you'll see a cup with a straw being carried. It must be a really really heavy drink!
Chris at the store "yeah can I get a 1/2 yard of soda please".
Chris works up a big thirst.
@@ko9446 Yeah, but did he order a dozen "blue teepee's" to catch the drainage??? I still cannot figure out the math on this stuff, but a half a yard of soda going in seems to make a full yard of liquid coming out!!! Some sort of magic.
Chris you are getting much better at pulling those rock out. Practice makes perfect.
'The Rock is Right Show'
Chris-> "Behind which Rock is the Deal of the Day? Is it Rock #1? Rock #2 or is it Rock #3?"
Hammer guy--> "I'll take Rock #3"

Chris--> "More Rock"
Hammer guy-->"I need a Pepsi"
WOW that was Amazing when that first huge boulder broke! And there for a minute I thought I seen Big Bertha's sister!!
4:50 Chris flexing with the Volvo
I'm glad you was able to be there when they come to bust it all up pretty awesome
Rock n roll! Nice shots with the camera facing out those were some big rocks. Can that be used for rip rap? At least it wasn't Manhattan Schist! The camera never stopped shaking loved it.
The cylinder for the thumb and the circuit it's on just amaze me the load they take.
0:14 That's a Home Depot bucket size big gulp!
Should have rolled up with your Yanmar mini like, "hey, I'm here to help"
I wouldn’t pay that bill without talking to that stores DM first. Credits are issued all the time for that kind of stuff. I know I spent 15 years in the rental industry. Good luck and God bless!
That’s some BIG Boulders Chris , hard on the machines!!!. 👏👏👏👍🇬🇧🍺
Chris, just a heads up. Pushing against rocks with a thumb is a good way to break or bend the cylinder
NICE JOB CHRIS, ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO. LIKE ALWAYS. A LOT OF ROCKS TO BE HAMMERED.
0:02 - that is a BIG coffee cup! What, 8" in diameter and 2' tall?
Hauling it around in the bucket 😂
Well I remember a few videos back your had mentioned that there was going to be a retaining wall along the tree line sure it'd be a pretty retaining wall if they could reuse those rocks to build a retaining wall it would save hauling them away also there's some beautiful stone there and I wish I had had them when I was building the front of my house I probably had 40 50 ton of rock in mine come out beautiful I don't see why you couldn't use them you got to buy cement in the truck anyways so why not put a few extra guys to work hope see you the next one soon thanks for keeping up the good work
i see the smile on your face when i guy dose his job like you need it to flowed nice together cheers nelson

Quite a rocky start to this video.
I see we're back working the Bronto-Crane .... Yabba-Dabba!😊
Great job to both of you guys !!!
You guys are rock stars! 🪨 ⭐️
That is a lot of rocks Chris. Maybe you should put up a sign that says buy one rock get a hundred free!
How on earth (and rock) can all this material moving be affordable for and ANIMAL HOSPITAL?
I know for sure you’re not a pet owner. Ever seen a vet bill? No problem paying for this job!
Businesses can take out huge loans based on current and projected profits. Way bigger than most peoples mortgages if their turnovers high enough (or if they’re just starting a business, but their plan looks solid enough to the bank/investors).
New to channel. Looks like u must be around Wendell or eagle rock NC. I see those sorts of big rock formations a lot out that way. Cool channel!!!
7 months so far of ledge and rock on my site. Sewer is 10 to 23ft at the deepest. I'm in a cat 349 rental and it's still real rough digging. Blasting and hammering every day.

WOW, making some headway on those rocks, looks like a rough ride.
All these rocks on one lot in NC. amazing !!
Finally! A clue as to where this is located, geographically.
This scene reminds me of a week we spent at a resort in Cuba. Workers were digging irrigation line trenches through the iron hard coral rock. All week. With pneumatic jack hammers . In 40 degree Celsius heat! Poor buggers.
Thanks Chris. Git lots if rock. Now some one can build a big Rock garden.
Chris are washing those rocks off to get the gold. Lol God bless
You need a friend down at the local prison, where they can give you a gang of men with sledge hammers and chisels. "Gettin' a drink of water, Boss!"
. . . and you know that from personal experience?
Love watching play in the rocks best video i have watched
Chris, I know what you mean about United Rentals. They're a rip off. I inquired about a skidsteer with a mulcher and was quoted almost $4000. a week pius $350 to deliver and $350 to pickup. I love your videos. Stay Safe and God Bless.

“Breaking rocks in the hot sun” Much easier this way! Another satisfying video!

This video ROCKS!

Awesome Beutiful Place Working 😍Very Nice Video Brother, Cat Rock Drill Machine wow😊 Your Every Video Nice keep it up Brother 🙏
Man Chris you got ears of steel workin next to a breaker with the door open and no ear plugs!
The reflection of your cup on the glass makes it appear that you're carrying your drink in the bucket, lol!
Looks like you might need shoulder harness in that rig when you dig those giant boulders Chris LOL
Not so often this good teamwork occurs of a coincidence!
Probably tough for that hammer operator to work, being in the presence of the best bucket driver in the business. Did he get your autograph Chris ?
00:04 hahahaha..i thought you had a big cup in your scoop! ha! silly reflections
Cool to see the boulders are finally gone almost
I bet that veterinary hospital goes chapter 11 before the footings are in! WOW
I’m surprised the blasting didn’t break up that stone better than that. To have to hammer all that crap on top of blasting. What a pia.
Thanks for rock video Chris .
