A true craftsman, indeed.

Nerves of steel

Fred was so good at what he did that walking up these 350' chimneys was like walking down the street. Amazing.

400 and 500 quid for 2 monsters dropping, seems cheap even for then, imagine todays cost to blow these up

Your mistakes. Mistake 1. You do NOT lubricate the spark plugs, you do not measure the electrode gap, (1,1) and most importantly you tighten at random without a torque wrench. Suzuki gives: 1.7 pm.Mistake 2. Also the drain screw You don't tighten it with a torque wrench, Suzuki gives 3.5Nm. Mistake 3. You are NOT filling the oil filter with lubricant, thus allowing a critical lubrication delay... and last but not least, you need to review your relationship with tools.For example, the spark plug you're using is ridiculous...Overall, out of a perfect ten, I give you a 4, very leniently. Keep trying, you'll do better next time.

My dad's favourite program, he actually can to the factory I worked at to repair his steam engine

Wish you'd left it in the original 4:3 Aspect - just doesn't look right like this. And. what's with the freeze-frame for the last 20 or so minutes?

HSE said wear a tin hat. Nothing about going deaf or resting through vibration white finger. 😮

Amazing as he was my question is how do you inspect it all the way round? Also what’s happened to these chimneys now? I can only assume they were taken down by scaffolding methods?

Lost my uncle on Piper. RIP to all 167 men.

If fred had got the right oppertunity in his early years he would have made a big sucsess if that oppertunity presented itself. Still he did'nt do to badly. He Always worked and worked for himself. Two wife's 2,3, kid's. Got the nod from royality was on TV made a few shilings and stayed true to his upbringing. So so missed he cheeky ways that were childish and funny at heart. I'm Irish, sadly people like fred were of their time . Its a different world these day's.RIP Fred✌️☘️

A look at many of the originals: Fred Dibnah, Thank You !

Nice pair of light cars! I own a Swift 1.0 boosterjet too. I have an easy question, because I need to change front brake pads: Do have, from factory, the brake bolts a chemical retainer-blocker-glue....or as it is said? Is convenient to apply some? Thanks for your useful videos.

Thank you!

My favorite line ever. From this movie

After watching this documentary, I ran a search on this man; what an interesting life! Who would have thought that a hardworking steeple jack would one day meet the queen and be rewarded the MBE!

Seeing freds face everytime he brings down a stack is like the look on a lil kids face on christmas morning looking at the toys hes about to open 😂

Thinking about the skilled mason's that built that beautiful chimney.

You serious clark?

An absolute British working class legend and possibly the very last of the kind of workers that made Britain great and I’m sad to say in this modern world with all of the Health and Safety shite we now experience with jobs like this I think we have seen the end of the likes of Fred which I suspect we’ll never see again in our lifetime.

Thank you so much for uploading this documentary. I watched it when it was first aired and have looked to see if it would added on RUclips. It’s one of the best documentaries ever made, on any subject, and deserved all its awards. The commentary, the experts, the survivors, the rescuers, the history, the footage and the accompanying music is excellent.

I can confirm they as a younger man at the bottom of ladder I would go looking at skirts

What a absolute legend fd was and still is 💯💯👏👌

Is it just me or is the audio messed up

Sounds good!

They don't make them like that anymore.

Haha I've been listening to another one like this every night to fall asleep to now I've got this new one I've found for the next 2 years so thanks its brilliant 👏

Amazing film about a real tragedy. May all the lost ones rest in peace. And i wish all the survivors lots of straingt and i hope they keep their friendship and meetings to last❤

"As yet"

Too bad they took that piss my pants out of the TV movie

Fred demolished 90 chimneys in his lifetime . But he said 'Half day out with undertaker' 9000 times 😂

Smashed bricks off chimneys all day , came home , demolished a big plate of chips , beans and steak , then 4 pints of Guiness , then smashed Sues back doors in 😂

What did i just witness

Question is why is the oasis song better well known

Hard graft climbing completely vertical ladders, then the over-hangs and that 300ft or so height, he had so much grit to climb that in his 50's, men half that age would quit at just 20ft. King Kong had considerably less boll0cks than Fred.

I love watching Fred Dibnah, could watch him 24/7!

Fred Dibnah is Superman!

What a man he was!

Bad enough climbing that high but then the overhang 😳😳😳😳

I would love to do this sort of work. At the end of the day someone has got to do it.

Exceptional drone footage!

WOW Fantastic ❤

Bloke helping in the red vest is the one and only Fred West! 💯true!

whoever made Fred wear that safety helmet should be ashamed of themselves!

The uk is an island, surprised it didnt sink with the size of freds balls!!

Everyone talking about Fred but give some for the guy sat inside the chimney hammering away at the supporting bricks........

It seems the sound works on pc, but not on a smartphone. Thats weird.

the part where they all wanted a brick signed by him was lovely and the crowd in Leicester would look a bit different now that's for sure.
