Watching you drill and blast the rock brought back memories of when I was a teenager and I would help my Dad to do the same thing. We used an air operated drill run by a gas compressor and would poke a hole in the end of the dynamite and insert the blasting cap. The cap was detonated by a fuse which we would have about 10 feet long. Light it and run. We were doing this to create a dam on a creek and had federal approval. Can't do that anymore. I still remember the sound as it went off. Thanks for bringing back a fond memory.
must have been back in the 60;s or 70's, the golden era of course. Now you can't do it anymore as civilization is declining and decaying. Full of robosapiens.
I've watched professional blasters use just enough explosive to break the rock into manageable pieces for an excavator (Hi Dave!), but your method is much more fun and there's almost nothing left to clear up 😁
Dave is very adaptable to situations, when demolishing near structures or people he is careful and uses little explosives. When he's sure he won't do any damage he works like this guy using lots of explosives. Demolishing with dynamite requires adapting to the situation. When you don't have digging machines nearby, the explosive not only breaks the rock but also displaces it
"Wow! Those detonations were absolutely awesome! You've got more energy than I do in a week. Much respect." I worked as a mechanic for a company decades ago that did seismic work in the oil field industry, and other things. One time they hired out to drill shot-holes in the floor of a rock pit so they could loosen up more rock to excavate. The floor of the pit was 100 feet below grade. I had to go out there and replace the starter on the shot-hole rig so they could get it started and drive it out of the pit. While I was doing that they got all the holes they had drilled packed with explosives and as the shot-hole rig was driven out of the pit they ran the wire that connected all the holes together up to the top out of the pit. So I hung around to watch what happened. When they set off the explosives you really could not hear it but felt it through your feet. I stood there and watched the floor of the pit, about the size of a football field, rise up into the air with part of it going about 300 feet into the air. I quickly rolled under my pickup to avoid being hit by rocks that flew over to where we had stationed ourselves at the rim of the pit. I think they used a little too much ammonia nitrate between the sticks of TNT in the holes.
Thanks! More blasting please! This video was awesome! Do you have plans to up your video output (say once a week?) Also many of your earlier videos, you say you will finish some items later … but have not so far! Like your water well Like your rock crusher Like road work Love the work, please more videos!
Wow, thanks! As it is right now, there is no way i can do that. But hopefully more often than now in the future. The problem with the bigger projects is that they get really expensive, and i need bigger machinery to handle it. So i'm saving up to get it. But the crusher and the road is somethings i'm going to work with this summer.
I noticed others have asked the same question before, and I was thinking the same. After seeing just a few videos I wondered why there's only 54k subs when the content/editing, and Bjoernstroem are all great. The videos wouldn't need to be as long, or as finely tuned re: the editing, making it easier to produce more videos which would be more profitable for him. He should have 500k to 750k subs easy, but that's jmo.

1) its a bot 2) those channels buy massive amount of bots 3) this guy is so stupid, why not just dig a small canal next to the rock instead of exploding it? @@K-Fed
Best video opening ever, "This rock is in the way and we will use explosives to move it"! haha. Note to self, 5 sticks is a lot if you ever get around to blasting rocks. Beautiful and Thank You. Your drone shot shows a lot of standing water. It will be a few weeks before you get into the forest for sure. 5th day in the row with thunder storms here in Texas. Lots of water also right now. Farmers grow a lot of cotton around me so I am sure they are very happy. Thanks for the video.
This was so much fun to watch. If you zigzag the drainage ditch it will slow down the force of the water so less erodes and you won't have as much to keep clearing out
Man oh man explosives are too much fun, is there no end to your talents? How did you learn so much at such an early age? I’m capable of the things you do with the exception of explosives, it took me 60 years to learn what you know and you’re better at many things than me. You are a very astute young man and I’m so glad I found your channel. Much respect, be well.

@@Tedinoz Bro he was at least a hundred feet away, behind a tree, and outside. Any particulates would have settled down before he even managed to get back to the site, and if the explosion itself managed to cause him harm I'm not sure PPE would have been able to do much either.
@@mortemexmachina187 Pretty sure they're referring to the dust from drilling. There are a few shots where he is wearing a mask but most are without. Hopefully it's just an effect of how the video is set up, silicosis is terrible
That last blast was over done, but it was cool. You made what’s called a counterforce charge. Essentially it’s just explosive waves colliding and multiplying inside a hard target. You could’ve had a slightly better effect on the rock if you did not place a charge in the center. Also if you have detcord or blasting cap at the furthest out point. The wave will travel more effectively through the explosive and into the target.
Fantastic video! The blasting and digging techniques employed to clear restricted water flow are both impressive and effective. Great job showcasing these vital processes!
I wish you and Andrew Camarata from NY USA could get together. You are both so much alike and yet your styles are completely different. Your camera work and editing are outstanding. I don't know how you both know so much about so many things. I'm in awe. Again, I hope you have some friends that can share the experiences you go through. Happiness is not real unless its shared.
Always your content is fun to watch. On the top of that, you just remind me when I lived in Stockholm/Sweden back in 2007-2011 .Beautiful country with pure nature ❤ Greetings from USA
Well, that was fun! Your a hard worker, thanks for the video look at the work that you do. The camera locations and slow motion shots were great. Glad you didn't shoot down the drone! Be careful.
Not seeing the whole picture, however looks like it could have been done intentionally as a check dam which helps slow the water preventing erosion and acts as a sediment trap. I install these regularly for storm water prevention plans and from the angle at the 3 min mark it seemed like that could be exactly what this was. Anyways like I said can’t see the bigger picture to be sure…best wishes
Your videos are the best produced I've ever watched on RUclips, and I watch a lot of RUclips. The second slow motion shot of that rock being blown up was crazy because of the one saucer shaped rock spinning right to the center of the shot. Great Video! New fan.
Me, minding my own business in the wilderness and I come across someone else's serious life obstacle and I happen to have all to means to to deal with that obstacle. How awesome is that?
Having been a combat engineer in Vietnam I can tell you i have never seen a guy trying harder to get killed. I don''t know a single safety rule he didn't break. - God must have a special liking for this guy. He scared the crap out of me just watching him.
Well, on private land there are no safety laws so he can do what he wants. Overall, you really making it worse then it is. (Btw why do amaricans always say they experience? It doesn't mean your good at what you did, it only says you did it short enough not to get killed. I dont get that about amaricans, nobody else does it...) he clearly knows what he is doing so you dont have to tell him what to do
To your subscribers - and possibly you - this will sound crazy. But the world we live in now is so disturbing and I watch your channel and you and feel hope.👍
Lovin' this job already! Go explode some huge rocks, play Mudrunner in Reallife with your Quad in some dirt puddles, getting to pull that caravan outta the mud, getting to use and work with a excavator making new paths for a river while still being in the middle of nature surrounded by trees and whatsoever. I don't know, but the thought of this being a Job is kinda satisfying. Sweden is awesome!
There is a really good reason why professional explosive demolition workers dig the holes deeper and back fill the drillings with quick drying concrete slurry once the charges are in place, it is because doing so gives a bigger bang for half the weight of explosive charges by impulse expansion, you obviously know that if you take a handfull of black powder for instance and pour it into a heap on a flat table surface and ignite it, it simply goes POOOOF in a giant cloud of black smoke - but take the same amount of powder and seal it in an airtight case and loose it off there is a sudden HUGE expanding vapour explosion, you could have done the same job with around a quarter of the explosive you used and if back filled deeply enough with rock hard set slurry would have just instantly vapourised that boulder rather than just smash it into largish chunks....but then I suppose you wouldnt have gotten half the BANG you were looking for - just an ex boulder and a hole where it used to be.
I would not think the bonding, licensing, and powder storage would be amendable to part time operation? In the US if you aren't doing it full time it isn't worth going through all the bureaucracy as well as the high cost of bonding and insurance required before a license is granted. Or are you full time in road maintenance and construction? Always interesting videos.
Good job building that road with the TB175! 👍 I suffer from much the same conditions, granite stone everywhere… Come and visit and bring the dynamite 😁
Great video! About welding the button insert to the drillrods, you were talking about... The drill rod is hardened and has carbon in it. Some kind of toolsteel probably. It does not weld with 7018 (Esab OK48.00) I have tried, it cracked along the weld when it cooled down... But there are stainless rods like 309 and 312 for welding dissimilar metals. It can take some "uppblandning av grundmaterialet"/utspädning... Do you wear an Epiroc branded jacket? If you know them, please ask about the material composition! The drill shank is probably no trade secret, like the carbide buttons probably are... But these shanks can be silver soldered! Cool very slowly! I have tried and it has held up for almost 1 hour constant drilling so far!
This has to be one of the best videos I’ve ever seen Omg you’re awesome I will definitely be following your channel ❤❤❤❤❤and your a cutie pie 👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️
Could you not use some sort of tie down strap in a loop to stand on instead of doing ballet with the jackhammer? Something adjustable so you can tighten the loop as it bores down? Would probably be a little safer and easier on the back.
I only recently found your channel and am enjoying them very much! It is very interesting seeing you at work and you are a hard worker. The footage of the rock being blown up was absolutely stunning. Perhaps because of my upbringing on a farm in Wales where certain trees and rocks act as landmarks and often from which the name of the field derives, I always feel a sense of sadness or longing when a large tree gets felled or a rock destroyed. Even though I know it has to be done and have helped to do so. I felt it with that rock too, even though I would do exactly the same thing. I wonder if anyone else feels that way. Perhaps it is a Welsh thing as we have a strong sense of 'hiraeth' (longing) even though we Welsh mined coal and slate in huge amounts!
My condolences to the camera man. 😉 But he did a good job. Joking aside, as some folks already written: your camera is excellent and brings a lot to the videos.
Dude, that last rock blast was awesome! You got some REALLY good shots! Looks like you're having fun. Can you talk about the road a bit more? It's just for logging correct? How long is it? Stay safe brother.
4:50 40:41 Just interested in Pyro-Stuff: What Explosive exactly is he using? How and at what temperature does it ignite? Looks like a termite kinda capsule that ignites the explosives but I don't really know...
Last demolition's video was as if it captured an exploding meteor at the time of ejection - the moment hurled debris enters into a collision course adventure in space! Very nice placement of cameras created a great visual of that rock's demolition, well done! You have some interesting videos, I have subscribed to your channel.👍
I'm wondering why you're cleaning in the direction of the flow. As you'll risk creating flooding downstream if there are obstructions and when you're releasing "large" amounts of water, also you're building a dam on the downwards side of the road which will make flooding more severe if it happened as the road is on the upwards side of the dam that it creates.
Would love to see that wheeled excavator with big mean aggressive tires on it, yknow ditch the dualies and make your own hub adapters to put something awesome/ridiculous on it. Really love that machine and your philosophy around how you use your fleet.
Hey man, have been enjoiying your video's ,watching them alllll the way through, its addictive for me, that boulder at 43:54, just before you touch off the explosive, the boulder looks so solid, to then just kinda melt into SO manny small bits, love the view from the drone, you really see how far it throws them bits of rock into the woods, so cool, it dose such a neet job, you would think its way more messy, really appreciate you and your video's, really love watching stuff like this, the rock crusher vid was the first i seen, really loved that one, didunt miss a minet of it, most people dont talk to, but you make it more intresting by infourming us what you are doing, your plan of acction and all, and just the diffrent camra angles, really enjoiy it, thank you ever so much for shareing it with us all, i will happly keep watching, you have a sub from me.

thats because you are dead inside, probably died a long time ago.

Good job building that road with the TB175! 👍 I suffer from much the same conditions, granite stone everywhere… Come and visit and bring the dynamite 😁
Great video! About welding the button insert to the drillrods, you were talking about... The drill rod is hardened and has carbon in it. Some kind of toolsteel probably. It does not weld with 7018 (Esab OK48.00) I have tried, it cracked along the weld when it cooled down... But there are stainless rods like 309 and 312 for welding dissimilar metals. It can take some "uppblandning av grundmaterialet"/utspädning... Do you wear an Epiroc branded jacket? If you know them, please ask about the material composition! The drill shank is probably no trade secret, like the carbide buttons probably are... But these shanks can be silver soldered! Cool very slowly! I have tried and it has held up for almost 1 hour constant drilling so far!
Thanks for the tip, will look into that!
Snyggt jobbat, hade inte sett denna video, måste ha missat den. Hursomhelst så gör du ett bra jobb😀
Gillar dina videos, intressanta och bra gjorda😃
So does anyone else think that Post10 might be just a little bit jealous of this set up? 🤔😉
Bob the builder in real life !! Truly multi talented , Huge respect
Love Your videos, and love Sweden too, home of my late wife.

Dayymmm this shot is Fire🔥 43:55
Don't know how I fell on this video I love it... dream work
Could you not use some sort of tie down strap in a loop to stand on instead of doing ballet with the jackhammer? Something adjustable so you can tighten the loop as it bores down? Would probably be a little safer and easier on the back.
Good idea, that could work.
Where are you from? Seems like by the equipment and vehicles you have you’re somewhere in the eu.
Northern Sweden
I only recently found your channel and am enjoying them very much! It is very interesting seeing you at work and you are a hard worker. The footage of the rock being blown up was absolutely stunning. Perhaps because of my upbringing on a farm in Wales where certain trees and rocks act as landmarks and often from which the name of the field derives, I always feel a sense of sadness or longing when a large tree gets felled or a rock destroyed. Even though I know it has to be done and have helped to do so. I felt it with that rock too, even though I would do exactly the same thing. I wonder if anyone else feels that way. Perhaps it is a Welsh thing as we have a strong sense of 'hiraeth' (longing) even though we Welsh mined coal and slate in huge amounts!
My condolences to the camera man. 😉 But he did a good job.
Joking aside, as some folks already written: your camera is excellent and brings a lot to the videos.
Dude, that last rock blast was awesome! You got some REALLY good shots! Looks like you're having fun. Can you talk about the road a bit more? It's just for logging correct? How long is it? Stay safe brother.

Just interested in Pyro-Stuff: What Explosive exactly is he using? How and at what temperature does it ignite? Looks like a termite kinda capsule that ignites the explosives but I don't really know...
Last demolition's video was as if it captured an exploding meteor at the time of ejection - the moment hurled debris enters into a collision course adventure in space!
Very nice placement of cameras created a great visual of that rock's demolition, well done! You have some interesting videos, I have subscribed to your channel.👍
You mean a Space X launch
Thanks for the nice camera work.
You have very good videos 👍👍so Rocky terrain there, do you live at northern Sweden?
Thanks, Northern Sweden is correct!
Great "special" effects. Thanks for video.
Who else is watching this because you can't sleep?
Me 😂,
It’s 2:30 am
Just popped a sleeping pill, waiting for it to kick in
😢
😊
I'm wondering why you're cleaning in the direction of the flow. As you'll risk creating flooding downstream if there are obstructions and when you're releasing "large" amounts of water, also you're building a dam on the downwards side of the road which will make flooding more severe if it happened as the road is on the upwards side of the dam that it creates.
AMAZING 🥰
Would love to see that wheeled excavator with big mean aggressive tires on it, yknow ditch the dualies and make your own hub adapters to put something awesome/ridiculous on it.
Really love that machine and your philosophy around how you use your fleet.
He is probably never going to do that bc it it used for work and not for fun
Hey man, have been enjoiying your video's ,watching them alllll the way through, its addictive for me, that boulder at 43:54, just before you touch off the explosive, the boulder looks so solid, to then just kinda melt into SO manny small bits, love the view from the drone, you really see how far it throws them bits of rock into the woods, so cool, it dose such a neet job, you would think its way more messy, really appreciate you and your video's, really love watching stuff like this, the rock crusher vid was the first i seen, really loved that one, didunt miss a minet of it, most people dont talk to, but you make it more intresting by infourming us what you are doing, your plan of acction and all, and just the diffrent camra angles, really enjoiy it, thank you ever so much for shareing it with us all, i will happly keep watching, you have a sub from me.
....LOOKIN' GOOD, NICE WORK STAY SAFE
Bro you are a badass with that gas powered drill and a camera! Awesome video! I shared it with all my friends good job👍👍👌😁
