Don't miss out on all the awesome stuff I'm sharing on Instagram.
Check the video description for the link.
Fun to watch. Thanks for letting us hear the equipment work and the sounds of the demolition. Too many nowadays have music instead of the sounds of the equipment.
Awesome demo! Straight into it, no mucking around.
Great to watch, well done!!
Now that’s what I call a professional, great job 👏
Just a suggestion...I think if you record until after cleanup you might grow your channel more. Keep up the great work 👍 love your videos!
I enjoy watching your videos keep making great videos I like your videos keep making great videos I like your videos a lot
Three months to build, 30 minutes to destroy. Nice job. 👍
Thanks for letting us hear the equipment work and the sounds of the demolition.
Well done. I enjoy the heck out of watching demo videos like this, Thanks for sharing,!!
That roof must have leaked every time it rained. I haven't seen a building come down so easy
If you noticed, there was a duct at ceiling level. On top of this was a rooftop air conditioner unit. It had been removed. Rain leaked into the ducts.
@@brianleeper5737 looked like the roof membrane was removed sometime before demolition, too. It might have contained asbestos.
We had an operator working material at a cement plant with a FA 21 with a ripper. And it impressed me so much. This 11 is so impressive. I would have loved seeing him run this machine on the pile pushing it to the hopper of the cement plate. Beautiful machine.
Somebody would love seeing you getting on the machine and running it. Step up homie
That sounds exciting but I have no idea what any of it means
Were those LVLs or solid beams that you kept picking out?
Although my company is primarily engaged in road construction, forestry contracts, I was approached last year by a development company to tear down three strip centers. I did the math, gave them what I thought would be a bid too high for consideration. A day later their attorneys were putting together a contract and securing a performance bond, insurance. Since I’ve done four more contracts. What are being paid is amazing. Best of which, I don’t have to haul away the wreckage. I bring in one of my 395s, easy money.
Easy money if you already have a fleet of equipment, good operators, and insurance/bonding/legal to handle contracts and liability. But that's a big hurdle to clear. Still, surprised there's not more competition. Where is your company based?
@@txviking I was thinking the same thing, especially liability. That must be why there's not much competition where he is. Laws are always dependent on the locality. The worse the laws are for businesses, the fewer the competitors he's gonna have.
@Leo-fk9ch Out or curiosity, where are you based?
He won’t say where he’s based. My experience in the peoples socialist republic of New York with those easy money jobs-no bid or insider government contract with kick backs.
50yrs ago as a kid thought these machines were dinosaurs watching this i still do great job must be very satisfying to do this
I subbed because of how you took that first big bite out of the building. You weren't afraid of it, just jumped right in. Best of luck!
Awesome demolition bud. I could watch it all day.
You did really well, nothing damaged. Slow and methodical. Only thing I'd suggest is not to work over the final drives, I know, not always going to happen, but its a good habit to be in especially when doing heavier work. Subscribed! Love your channel!
Nothing damaged except the entire building, ha ha.
Thanks for a great video! such a underrated channel!
1:08 That escalated quickly.
Great content, keep it coming 👍🏼
In New York, we recycle heavily. Our strategy is (As much as possible) keep like materials together. Also not all of our dump sites take all materials thus the separation. Sometimes the metal recycle sales pay for the entire expense part of the job. Keep up the good work. Also like others have suggested show the job after all is said and done. Clean, graded, Etc. Good Work 😄👏
Can someone explain the purpose of spraying water on it
Amazing job, Thank you for sharing ❤
Cool video. Stay safe out there
These were mini banks. I built a few of these in the 80's.
OMG 12:37 lifts the back of the roof in one massive grab. Wow!
Thanks buddy I skipped over that and I would have missed it
These are fun to watch. As for the bank vault door, I'm not sure where you'd use it, but it would seem worth saving.
Didn't see any bank vault door.
fun to watch professionly done
Enjoyed, Cat at work😼🤝
Imagine making a prank, and booking a demolition of your neighbor’s house, when they are out !
Did you put everything into a dumpster or try to separate the cinder block onto save weight ?
What a mess. How NOT to do it, mixing it all together.
I work with an excavator here in Brazil too, my dream is to work with an excavator there in the United States
No way I could be that meticulous. The child in me would have to destroy everything as fast as possible.
Hey, what's the address on the building ?
Amazing how powerful these machines are! I saw a group of them a while ago cut a path thru a mountain for a pipeline. They looked like T Rexes chewing up the earth from a distance. 😗BTW I wonder if most of those cinderblocks can be cleaned and resold.
That looked like tooooo much fun.
I take it all the materials have to be separated before going to the landfill?
Done a good job
In all the years I've stood at an airport, I've been impressed by the power that gets the plane into the air. I have a similar feeling with excavators. Planks like 2"*8" become like matchsticks when the bucket presses on.
My neighbor, who is not used to driving, swerved to the left with the bucket, when the intention was to the right. It took us a week to repair. Meanwhile, the children were without a playhouse.
Were we made aware of the power of an excavator perhaps..?
I could not have done that good
Great stuff! Like how you pulled those giant planks out. Saving those?
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it! Yep, when they come out nice and clean like these ones, we save them.
Hello I'm from good old Europe, Austria. You have a great feeling when demolishing with the excavator. We separate everything here into wood, metal, building rubble, problematic materials and residual waste. How does it look for you?
Have a good time an enough work.. 😊
Well done uve done a great job keep it up
i was just gonna ask you what was the purpose of using water when tearing down a building? and i found the answer! it controls dust and prevents it from spreading to other areas :D interesting!!!
I appreciate the brief walkthrough my man. Good to know this POS was torn down haha!
Nice video. Seems the machine loves it.
Thanks for sharing - I like the way how you demolish. If you use the "put everthing in the center-method" there would be not so much to see for demolition lovers. I hope you will get a lot of fans. By the way it would be cool to see how you crush the metal stuff like fridges, stoves or AC.
He needs a toy store to demolish - still filled with merchandise! 😂 😂 😂
I think in this case, the concrete and cement masonry unit blocks need to go to a different place than the rest of the building scrap. This is probably why he was carefully peeling off as much of the wood pieces as possible, then toppling the block walls away from the main spoil pile. It takes a little longer to knock down the building this way, but its a lot less work later when loading out the trash than manually sorting out cement blocks from the wood and interior building debris.
What is the water for? To keep down dust or asbestos? Or in case the demolition creates heat and then a fire?
That was my first thought. I used to do asbestos abatement, and we sprayed water on any open insulation to keep the particles from contaminating the air.
My 4 year old grandson picked this video to watch. We both loved it.😊
Simply Satisfying
that guy running the machine is awesome
How did you get into the demolition industry?
Its even more fun to drive the excavator right thru the building, but a bigger excavator though
The goal is to not damage the excavator, including scratching the paint, if it can be avoided.
Now I know what to do if I ever win a lot of money. Hire a guitarist to jam live while I'm at it
What’s the water for?
No need for sorting out the E-waste before demolishing? Do everything go to landfill or incineration?
i saw absolutely positively one hundred percent nothing wrong with this video!!! no one got hurt everyone was safe! plus you were doing your job from a safe distance! but i have a question for you!!!!! how do you know what is salvageable or not salvageable when it comes to tearing down a building ???
wow amazing
Nice demolition !
Cool video!! Well done.
What did you charge for this job??
hey buddy great video keep up the good work
Good job 👍🏻
just subscribed always been fascinated with construction equipment so awesome 😮
the fun part is over, now you have to clean up the mess
That roof and over hang came apart way way too easy.
As if the put just enough nails to hold it there.
Surprised high winds never ripped that stuff of the structure.
Nice job separating the debris.
Waisting alot of time on small lumber!
from one demo operator to another nice work bro
Much appreciated.
No hopper to fill with the debris?
Nice job
I played about 20 minutes of T-Rex sounds next to this.
I'm so glad we haven't got smell-o-vision. I love it when you can get close to the action.
Good operator!
Just curious why you dont work with scrappers to recycle a bunch of this. A lot more worth saving than just the beams.
Well,it has ventilation now
i did demo on a 963 for decades
looks good
your a fine operator save the lvl beams for resale
Nice videos! My son loves them!
you should show the clean up also i feel like i seen half a video 😁
very good 😊
Well done
Just discovered your channel. Great watch. I'm in the UK. Where are you?
Wow, that's awesome, thank you.
We're in the Pacific Northwest, US.
North Mill Road in Spokane !!!!
A lot of unnecessary pushing and scraping of lumber!
Where are you doing all of this at? I know its not Arizona !!!!!!!!!! LOL
well done
Nice couch.
Ah man, I wish we could have saved it for you.🤣🤣
water is crazy safety
How much you charged the owner for this job???
Is it too late to save the purple plaid sofa? 😂
Yep, it didn't survive.🤣
@@HomeWreckerBrian Damn, I missed it!!!
I like it…the demo….but…all that metal scraps….I wish I can load it and cash it N 😊
Tear it down.Waisting hours and time and fuel!
Why not salvage the windows?
This is the slowest demolition I have ever seen
What type of cat is that??
Lol money talks that's all 😂😂😂
The fluorescent light tubes contain mercury. You may want to consider pulling them out and recycling them before smashing the building to bits.
Good eye, I did take those out just after the walkthrough.
@@HomeWreckerBrian - That is great. I'm not a tree hugger but mercury is nasty stuff.
Good LUCK in your Demolition Business but keep the Driver Gears on your Tracks to the rear
I, use do that but I will be there again?
cool
My boy just got dismembered
