Ok...first thing is that there are special brass tools made for hazardous atmospheres. Second is that they carried portable analyzers like we do for confined space jobs. Third is that there are safe job procedures for EVERY job NASA does. I tip my hardhat to these maintenance men.
@@ninabeena83 Correct. They would be checking in with their foreman to see if there's been any changes in the instrument readings. Something as subtle as a shift in wind speed and direction can force a re-evaluation of the situation.
All rockets are hard. That is why it is called rocket science. Also, it takes a very long time to develop them. Maybe one day when you grow up you can learn all about it.
Half a million pounds of explosive waiting to go poof and we see three guys stroll over to give a few bolts a whack with a hammer. Mankind is amazing.
they didnt / dont bang on anything....
I mean. It's either going to work or it's very suddenly not their problem anymore.
with the leak of LH2 a bang with a hammer would be disaster. but yes I know what you mean is just metaphoric.
There are special brass tools for jobs like this. I tip my hardhat to the FIN (Fix It Now!) Team!
Bread and circuses 😏

only a small spark would change the spaceflight world and those Men are The Real Heroes of NASA.
Their names would have been added to the Astronaut Memorial wall...
These guys are true American heros
A good plumber is like a good lawyer, worth EVERY damned penny.
Team leader: no smoking guys!
One of those guys is my step dad. Complete Giga-Chad
Fixing liquid hydrogen leak near an armed rocket ready to launch in a couple of minutes. :o
*coupe of hours
What incredibly brave men !
I love how they hang out between their vehicles and share a smoke before going up to bang on this thing.
Might be there last
@@cowbdave99 *their
They're doing something, but I guarantee it's not smoking. There won't be open flame allowed anywhere on the facility.
@@richardbarnes4699 right. Checking in and checklists most likely

Hope that hazard pay is good!
It's just another day for the Fix It Now team.
That thing is so huge.
That’s what she said.
And her boyfriend agreed

Better not have a trace amount of oil on those wrenches!
DID SOMEBODY SAY OIL!
Hats off to you guys/Dudes! TFS, GB :) 'Thanks For Sharing, GraemeBrumfitt, may as well throw in an England whilst I'm here...
Hope they'll fix it.
Maybe we shouldn’t use 12 year old rockets.

Well you can eat your hat now! GB :)
Lmao just scrap it at this point
You may as well eat your hat as well!!! GB :)
Scary. Almost if it was real.
Baaaah!
