    It's a beautiful sight to see this huge environmental cleanup operation that also provides useful oil and ashfault for our use.

      Okay, watch any frame in this video and tell me what is frozen overburden and show me what is oil sand. I TRIPLE FCKING DOG DARE YOU. I will eat 10 pound of oil sand if you can find one god damned bush or one god damned frozen tree in this video!!!! The oil sand company is pulling oil OUT OF THE SAND. The oil company is the environmentalist!! they are decontaminating the ground.

      Propaganda much? This is about as far from an environmental clean up operation as one can get...

      You do realize oil sand is naturally occurring. It's raw and unrefined. Not like from an oil spill on the beach...

    I love the dump guides hanging from the boom to help judge where the bucket needs to be for dumping into the trucks. Working for a company that had to dig out useless material to get to the desirable material costs a lot of money.

    Hello Aaron Witt. I am a Haul Truck Operator at Suncor and I am, of course, very excited about these videos. I am also an artist with an exhibition coming up this fall in Fort Mcmurray. If I credit your videos appropriately can I use screen-shots from them as references for artwork I can present to our community?

    • @yermudder
      @yermudder Год назад +2

      the headlights are very bright but when it gets very dry and dusty we kind of have to just know where we are going. it’s not so bad up out of the mine on top but when you’re down in the bottom of it with a lot of traffic sometimes you’ll have 0 visibility. but we have haul trucks that spray water to minimize that.
