Great video. Takes me back to some fun yet frustrating times. After having kids the FIFO life didn’t work for me but got nearly 10 years of drilling under my belt. Got to learn what a hard days work was that’s for sure. Love the bombs in the waterhole- used to do that while filling up the water truck!
I couldn’t handle job like this. Heard about these jobs and offsiders making lunch for power tripping drillers? I’d give the ol left right good night and get sacked lol
Love the vid brother. Had the honour of working on drilling rigs in Western and South Australia which is God's country for this line of work.
you done a great job of capturing the life of exploration drilling. now I can show my mates what been an offsider is all about

Legit some of the drill operators are absolute arseholes
@@adamstannard7934 im guessing outside of work they dont feel so powerful
That's what you call living the dream.
I used to be a mechanic for Rockdril on a Versatile 1000 years ago, good times , hard life. Much prefered Diamond to RC though, bit more chilled.
This reminds me why I love doing aircore so much.
Wonder how many know where that car in the tree is...
Excellent job!!

I. DO. NOT. MISS. THE. GIANT. " #1. RATTLESNAKES " 😎

Молодцом!!!😀
What kind of money you make through drilling these days? Day rate or hourly
TheMorsader offsiders will start on $30hr if you have truck licence. So $360 per day starting rate.
That’s for a 13 plus hour day when u factor in making blokes smoko and dinner so ya hourly rate starts to dwindle
👍👍👍
Sick video ,how the fuck that car get in the tree but 🤔
We just did a new episode on drilling technology. ruclips.net/video/i7yOWjyFBkk/видео.html
