I really love watching the old stuff absolutely loved it.

Bloody hell, Dyer was a consummate pro... So slick between banter and advertising..

My late Mum loved this show....in fact, I liked it myself.

If Bob Dyer had of talked less and gotten on with the show it would have been a better show to watch !!!

Hi Larraine.

You wouldn't get 2 cents for the Encyclopaedia Britannia nowadays

as a lad we used to go around ask for stickers at the BP and other places the STP sticker was hard to find

Vaguely remember this show as a child. Great to watch

Nice

Seems to be a bit of a format change over the 3 videos of this show on RUclips. this one has trilons instead of boxes, no buy out, and the option to keep or trade, also there seems to be a schedule change as he mentions the hemi pacer would be offered next week and the board has prizes revealed

Great stuff, that’s a good show.

Nice cast

Can you use flash powder primery?

1969 mutton chops Moe's and valiants !

"Motor cars" lolol. 🚗

(SPOILER) As generous as they were on the "which ruler" question, the question made reference to *March* 1881 (when Alexander II of Russia was assassinated), not *September* 1881 (when President Garfield was assassinated).

Just discovered this months ago. Grew up in the states but love Bob Dyer here. Love his combo aussie (not sure which area)/southeastern USA accent. Very unique.

howdy customers

I can understand why this was a popular show down under.

hole depth of 45m? really?

That's one super-cool grand prize...a Hemi Pacer!

Great video! Thanks for posting. Do you know exactly what month this aired?

Guys ur welcome

How are you gonna pay 700 ton of bombs? This is american so it is fake

Looks like it didnt go all the way. How long did it take to load this shot. Ive done a lot but nothing this big.

you have no idea!

700 holes. 1 tonne of ANFO each. any good at math? apparently you are a physics genius. Also read up on ANFO.

What people are forgetting is, This technically isn't a 700 tonne explosion. It's a series of about 700, 1 tonne explosions of ANFO. Not high explosive but powerful, and accurately designed to move 100 of thousands of tonnes of bedrock...

Did you not read anything I just said? also, read Josh Heatley's comment, he is also correct. ANFO is not like TNT or fucking nuclear weapon! Do yourself a favour and google image seach "Orica MMU" - these trucks alone hold anywhere from 10t-16t of Bulk Explosive (depending on the product), the site i work at has four of these babies loading 17hrs a day - in one day we can load up to 700t of bulk...

Don't quarry be happy :)

also the boom on that DRAG LINE in the background stands 80 metres tall.

It's ANFO, Each hole takes a little less than 1 tonne to fill. Just about to do a 1600 hole shot at my work. Do the math. Breaking windows though? doubt it, the mine would be hammered by the councils, and government including the all feared DPI. also blasting at these depths the shock wave is dispersed mostly the the earth, my workshop is 20 kays from where they had the last blast... 1800 holes and it shook a shovel off the wall.

You people need a quick lesson in Open Pit Mine Blasting: Explosive used: Ammonium Nitrate Fuel Oil (ANFO w/ Relative Density of 0.8), initiated with TNT Boosters (each 400g) Blast Hole Diamater: 270mm Hole Depth: Anywhere from 2m to 70m deep Lets use a 40m deep hole (which by the looks of the video is about the depth of the bench being blasted): Each hole would take 30m of ANFO = 1500kg. Looking at the video, 500m Long, 60m wide = approx 450holes = 675 tonnes...BAM!

you're telling me this blast had .56 kilotons of energy? that's nuclear weapon range. you could not survive such a blast at that distance in that case, the camera would have been toast. you're telling me the earth would contain that much energy at such a shallow level? LOL

i bet he ment 700 tonnes of stones which would be the ammounth of material they get from this explosion ... more realistic i think

Well, a mounted camera certainly doesn't have as much structural integrity as a house, and even if it did, that is certainly less than 750m.

Now that's what I call mining

ok so the owner of the 2 houses in the 15km range must change their windows every 10 days because the explosions? i suppose that's a mine so it's not "once in a lifetime" explosion

Maybe it was 700 tons of rock that was loosened.

it´s 700.000 tons

I have seen big explosions in coal mines ,this is no where near 700 tonnes. I have been in the pit @ a distance of 400 m and it shook the landcruiser ,you could see the blast wave coming at you .This my friend was not 700 tonnes . Nice vid all the same

It is unusually gracious to see someone apologising on RUclips comments, which is worthy of praise.

I am sorry sir , you were right . please excuse me for my ignorance and the stupid comment above. Ill probably delete it to hide my shame , have a nice day

Look back to my comment some weeks ago: "Based on the time it takes for debris to fall the height of the lower cliff (<2 sec) and the size of the digger in the background (cab height <10m), I estimate the two lower cliffs to each be ~15m in height; the length of cliff blown up <100m and the distance of camera to nearest explosion <150m." So, what is your reasoned justification for calling me blind?

/watch?v=IXTwFsO1UvE here you go that's a 500 tonnes explosion.

500 tons of explosives is the equivalent of a small atomic bomb. (Force)

cheap made in china popping shells maybe

Holy crap !!

So the author still claims 700 tons of explosives was used? Well, let's say that the explosive's mass is 2 times that of water, then they had to dig out 350 m3 of rock just to make space for the dynamite? That's just ridiculous.

700 tonnes may be correct in the life of the mine to date ( from when video was uploaded ) but that explosion is far from a 700 tonne explosion. And as far as saying windows were blown 15klm away is so far from the truth like my ability to spell correctly. Sincerely some I.T guy.
