Imagine looking out of the window and seeing a scared hamster cleaning your window
Lmao made my day thanks
could be worse, could be an orangutan
@@MegaTamer111 captain slow would be nice until you realize he’s spent 4 hours on your window so you just look at him like 👁👄👁
Don't be fooled, while the building might look impressive, Hammond is so small that the windows they are cleaning are in fact on a bungalow.
He's the Hamster
why did I read this with Clarkson's voice in my head
@@gregf5770 I'm not the only one who did this then 😂😂
@@gregf5770 Bloody hell! I didn't at first, but now that you mentioned it...
HAMMOND!
One of the toughest jobs in the world
Respect to the cleaning team
but somehow it is more luxurious than those who are digging bird poo for fertilizer in Peru.
Not the toughest job in the world I've been a abseiling window cleaner for 18 years it's easy
the toughest job is a politician, all that lying and money grabbing is so bad for the brain and the back lets not forget the fact not going to work everyday or sleep at work is mentally challenging
But Oprah said being a mom is the hardest job in the world...
i could never man i shit myself gettin on the roofs let alone that high
Good thing he's got a helmet on
Samarth Srivastava 😂😂😂😂
The helmet is conveniently shaped to contain his liquid remains if he fell.
Helmet isnt for a fall , its for drops & swings 😭
I would have prefered a parachute instead if i was in his position.
@panfriedd oh yes he will survive falling from that height
Hammond looks like a really low/short budget version of Tony Stark
Lol, yeah he does!
BTEC tony stark
He's the realest thing to Tony stark
Scrap Industries lmfaooo what on earth? 😂😂
But both are the nearly the same height
I’ve been doing this 8 years now. Best job I ever had. Keeps you fit, doesn’t feel like work and if you get bored just look down! We’re cool with people looking down, we say never look up. Because you’ll see a mistake that is invariably made whilst cleaning windows stacked up over 600feet high. Good to see hammond gave it a crack. Believe it or not I’ve never seen anyone freeze up or panic and I’ve worked with over a hundred people in it now. Could be lucky
That, is amazing. I've never heard this job put in such a positive light, but it actually makes a lot of sense if you think about it.
I’ve been with a few people who got paralyzed and couldn’t continue. A small percentage though.
how to apply
Clarkson: Meanwhile, Hammond cleans the tallest building - in the world...
Perfect!😂
and my mind read it in Clarkson's voice XD
@LordGroyper You physically can't not.
🤣🤣
I know this comment is sarcastic but helmets are must in such job to protect them mainly from falling objects.
Probably cleaning Tom Cruise's Footsteps 😆
Wut
Haha😂
@@onscreen933 bro there is a movie where Tom cruise do some stunts to break into a room to catch some punks
@Ayham Ashraf
@@ayhamm777 mission impossible Ghost Protocol
James May needs to try this!
He would have a heart attack
My guess is James would rather massage jeremy’s sausage rather than cleaning those windows
Shit I would want clarkson to try it haha. Or is there a weight limit 🤣😂
He would faint 😵💫😵😑
That "NO" at 0:42 came from the bottom of his soul 😂
When your life is literally on the ropes.
“It’s harder than it looks”
Nooooo, it looks as hard as it actually is.
Just going to say, visiting Dubai, more specifically the burj khalifa, is definitely one of those bucket list entries, just the fact that you can say “I’ve been inside the worlds tallest building” is an amazing brag, not just that the view from the highest the general public can go, makes all the other skyscrapers you see in Dubai, becomes dwarfs by comparison, it’s truly amazing
"It's harder than it looks"
I most definitely never said that looks easy
Hammond: I could not do this for a job.
Him: Does it for his job anyway
RUclips: Did you click here because we recommend this to you?

Imagine cleaning skyscraper's glass and you see a plane heading towards you on the reflection of the glass
@@CreativeVibesYTx 11/10 grammar bud
@@CreativeVibesYTx are you trying to say 9/11 was good??
@@illuminosis6823 I am VERY sure, that is NOT the intention he's getting at here. XP
Sure, 9/11 was a terrible moment in human history, but much like with WW2, eventually it will be made fun of.
Some people just seem to like to start much earlier than others would like.
@@TheTrytix I can’t even see his comment anymore for some reason, so I don’t know what he said
@@illuminosis6823 Well, I can. Sooo... He said this: "Imagine cleaning skyscraper's glass and you see a plane heading towards you on the reflection of the glass"
First thought, "Is The Hamster going to roll that building in a ditch ??!?"
I love this series, and I think Hammond gets better and better with time.
imagine chilling in your living room and looking out your window and richard hammond is cleaning your window
"I don't want a bucket!"
"You're gonna clean glass!"
*_I DON'T WANT TO CLEAN GLASS, I JUST WANNA GET DOWN ALIVEEE_*
He clearly isn’t afraid of heights, he’s cleaning a window at 828m where I can’t even be half of that
Fuzzy VNM or even 1/100 of that lmao
There is no difference if its 800 m 400 or 50. if you Fall you're ging to die either way . so it could be 1000 m aswell
DrKampfpudding I once fell 2 feet and now I’m dead. Thank you for clarifying
DrKampfpudding You’re grammar hurts
@@fuzzymp Your* 😂😂😫
How you gonna try and act smart with your grammar comment and then come in with an error of your own?
I just love when hamster gets scared 🤣🤣
Massive respect to Richard Hammond here, massive!
Respect for Richard doing this!
On today's show "richard cleans a window of a small building, James organizes lingerie and I ride a bicycle"
So great man
Awesome Dear
respect for all who doing this hardest job
They do an amazing job. Amazing feat of human engineering.
It is a seriously long way down.
I loved James May in Japan. Looking forward to this show!
What an awesome job these guys have
He’s not scared of heights. I can’t even stand on 6 story tall scaffolding without trembling. He’s all up there dangling from the burj Khalifa lol
"I just wanna get down alive"🤣🤣🤣🤣
You gotta be kidding me. I literally peed myself 😬😂
Well done Hamster, afraid but strong minded. Brave man! 🍻
Man I wouldn’t even go to the top of the building on the inside
He's cleaning windows but is yelling "I don't want a bucket!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Shoutout to the cameraman. A real legend to get those angles and shots
I used to live in there and every time I would see these guys, I would always think to myself they have balls of steel.
Respect !! Hope they get paid big bucks
Notice how he's got barrel knots on, that's a no no for a level 1! Haha
That's gonna be a big hell hope from me mate
Very hard working ❤
Props to the camera guy...
Best thing to do when facing fears or when your nervous is exactly what he does here , talk
Talk and talk again non stop to distract you from the hell your going through😂😂
Beautiful city 😊😊😊😊👍
Good effort Richard, after 20 years of Industrial rope access in the oil and gas industry I would have loved to have done this, if only to have it on my C.V.
pov: your in an important business meeting, Richard hammond starts cleaning the window
My respect to them❤
This Is Madness!!
Very nice
I got damn near anxiety just watching this video, this looks terrifying!
“Comfortable?” “NO” lmaooo
Imma window cleaner and watching Richard clean is really funny
Fair play to richard he has balls of steel even in top gear he done some crazy things
Hammond: I don't want a bucket I just want to get down!
cameraman carrying 40 lbs: Am I a joke to you?
Starts to go down after cleaning
Bird: Im going to end this man’s career.
: what's your profession?
: I clean windows.
: hmm.. Ok..🙄
: Those👆 Windows.
: Woooh... 😳😵🤯
Omg my knees are weak just watching this
Tom cruise be like: hold my cleaning bucket
Wow massive respect for those workers
They need our respect, because their employers does not have any respect for them.
Gotta love Rope Access Techs.
Why isn’t this on amazon or Netflix
I think it will be on amazon soon, I’m not sure
It is on Amazon now.
Sally Smith only if you pay extra
Billy P ffs, one of the reasons why I prefer Netflix cause you pay monthly then you can watch the films you choose where as amazon you have to pay monthly then pay again to watch some films or programs
I got sweaty palms just watching this
I will never again moan about my job. Ever.
As I've aged, I no longer have the nerve to go out on a limb or to climb significant heights. It seems too risky and I love life.
@@Nhzharuthopar A couple years ago I had occasion to remove something from the roof of house. I didn't even have the nerve to get off the ladder. My brave wife then climbed the ladder and onto thevroof!
I don't have a fear of heights but daaaaamn this is something else alright.
Been up there but on the observation deck and behind the glass, not out in front of it.
Hammond I know you are a TV star but what on God's Earth made you do this??? I can not unsee it.
*slight gust of wind*
*SNAP*
How about the astronaut staying at the space station😂
That looks terrifying!
When is this episode being aired?
James and Jeremy should have been watching him on the balcony
Why is the muppet even attempting this when he is terrified of heights, just sit at home and enjoy reading a book in peace.
Wow! Richard, thats fantastically scary!
I can’t watch it. Lol I’m terrified watching Richard do this
Good on him!
The scariest monsters are the ones that lurk within our souls
And all I loved, I loved alone
You're awake
Edgy
Hammond: I’m scared of heights
Also Hammond: I can fly a plane!
Very difficult and hard work
I have conquered my fear of heights completely. It's my fear of falling that needs a lot of work.
The fall doesn't hurt but the stop does!
Id pass out 😂
I'm afraid of heights. Much respect
From where can i watch the full video?
What a brave hamster 🐹
i cant imagine the heat they are experiencing cleaning those windows. having lived in dubai for so long summers are all about making sure i stay inside the ac only
hes gooooodddd
Where I can watch the full episode?
My palms are already sweating
Camera man is the real hero✌️
Hammond is fear of heights while he is only the engineer 😀
Well, he hadn’t received any instruction on how to use a squeegee, which makes the job tougher and longer when you ARE actually required to do the job (properly), but he gets my full respect. You can lose your life falling 2 stories, really. And the tallest buildings are no more dangerous. I’ve never been higher than a mere 23 flights. But what impresses me about this fellow isn’t the height of this building. It’s that he had no time to gradually acquaint himself with the high-rise surroundings when he did this, and on an edifice that majestic. And that DOES make all the difference in the world, having time to familiarise yourself with this work environment. I didn’t have to go over the edge until I’d been on the roofs aloft wee 6 storey buildings for well over 6 months. By then, I was begging to go over. Coz I was around such a supportive group of caring gentlemen. We had one girl on our team. She was fearless. 5 foot 1 in stilettos. You see a chick do this, Sonny, you face your nerves pronto. This is NOT a man’s job. It’s a job for level heads. And broads rock the bloody casbah, I’m here to say. Anyone can do this work. Coz fearless people aren’t born, they’re made. But I’m perfectly content with small jobs! I got enough grey hair, thank you.
This and the bulb changing on that 2.000 feet tv mast require nerves of steel
Oh my God , crazy job...
I dont want a bucket! Lol
Even Watching it gets to my nerves instantly
Hammond is veery strong. All my limbs would freeze and I'd have to be resuscitated.
This job takes balls of steel.
Rajesh, you are gonna wreck the bucket Rajesh.
Crazy
