  • In 2004 Marvin Heemeyer destroyed half of his town with an armored Komatsu D355A bulldozer as revenge for what he believes was government overreach and unfair treatment from the town. Unfortunately there is very little unbiased media on the subject at a time when Marvin's actions now resonate with millions of Americans, and even less information from Marvin's side with the exception of some tape recordings. So I drove to the town where it all happened to talk to the locals and get a better idea of why Marvin did what he did. #killdozer #granby

    I am from Granby, CO and was just a few blocks away at daycare when this happened.I don't remember any of it because I was 2, but I spent the next 17 years living and going to school in this town, growing up in the aftermath that was the killdozer. One of my moms best friends dated Marv for years, and before he went on his rampage he paid for her to go back to her home country to see her family. Patrick Brower who wrote the book on the killdozer was the publisher at ski-hi news at the time and Marv specifically went after the newspapers building because of how everything leading up to the rampage was covered. I grew up with Browers son, his wife was one of my french teachers at one point, there were so many others I grew up with or knew who were involved. Everyone in the town has some sort of connection to this day. I don't condone the actions of Marv, but I also understand why he did what he did and know he was at his limit. The town really screwed him over time and time again, I am just glad there were no casualties apart from Marv. Its really interesting to see an outsiders perspective.

    I have the .38 Special Marvin used to end his career. My Stepfather at the time was a state trooper in Greeley Colorado. He got a call and is seen in multiple photos at the basement, crawling all over the dozer. The handgun was put in a Greeley evidence room because the act was so terrible higher ups investigate. To make a long story short it expired in the evidence room and was claimed. It’s still in Colorado and has been restored. Except red blood cells have deteriorated the external metal of the handgun. It fires and operates fine but there is the engraving of the rust caused by the bodily fluids of Marvin that stain the handgun forever.

    For anyone curious, Marvin didn’t purchase the dozer with the intention of rampaging. He originally bought it to make a new route to his shop (the cementing plant basically blocked off his business). At some point he essentially was like “fuck it” and sold everything he had, then invested the rest of his money into armoring killdozer.

    I am from Germany and the story of the Killdozer is one of my favourites and also pretty good known by the people here. I often wish, more people would TREAD on the opressors in the world, so Marvin was a man to look up to for me.
    Also this series of WD is really the first ones where i am a 100% behind. Love the provocation in this one and i am really curious too see what he does with the kommatsu. A "rebuild" of the armored one as a display and reminder, kind of a collectors edition thing, would be an awesome thing to have on his farm. But the thing i hope the most for, is that he for once doesnt just destroy it for fun. This "thing" is one of the reasons I most of the time dont really go along well with cody. But this is just my opinion, and everyone can do what he wants with their money... Just bugs me to see, how he sometimes crash brand new cars or other things, that normal working people like me can hardly afford. But thats another story. For now, its the story of the awesome KILLDOZER, so... TREAD ON THEM!

    I worked in granby CO for the USFS for 3 years. I ended up meeting one of his old friends who used to ride snowmobiles with Marvin. Marvin was the creator of the Heymeyer bumper, a 3 plus inch round metal pipe bent and welded into a front bumper for a snowmobile. Marvin pioneered the Granby Signature style of snowmobiling through the mountains with these bull bar guards plowing over small trees that would otherwise stop other riders. He was a brilliant machinist and craftsman, and was respected and cherished by many people in town. I think he did what he thought was right, and he was willing to die for that belief. Pretty incredible story.

      @Mr.Unacceptable 2 месяца назад +17

      Our present town now is turning into this town slowly over 10's of years. Each government getting worse and worse trying to out virtue signal each other.. They are making up or applying laws by who you are and what race you are. If you are European you can build only to a specific hight and size as per the laws. but if you belong to a specific minority group. Even if you are 10th generation Canadian you get special rules to build a $2-4 million dollar building. I don't think anyone that can afford to build a 2-4 million dollar home is a victim. Meanwhile the people around me that are not this special class are denied building permits for things like blackberries on the property. Or demanding they pay also for the entire streets sewer and water for a permit to build. But mostly the special group gets to build out to the property line with gigantic 10 bedroom homes that become white elephants. While the non group can't build more than a 3 bedroom home and restricted to 1/3 build out 5 foot from the property line. My place I couldn't have a basement and couldn't build more than 2 bedrooms with an in law suite. But the people access the street have under ground garage. 5 bedroom house with a 4 bay garage an in law suite and a carriage house above the underground garage. On the same size property. We live in a flood plain. No problem with a 8 foot hole under the house filled with cars.

    My dad is a limestone miner and they have an extensive array of komatsu equipment ranging from haul trucks to dozers to all types of earth movers and those machines are mind boggling up close. I’ve seen one if their biggest dozers plow through 100+ tons of limestone like nothing. Without even slowing down. Best believe the people that did him wrong were shitting their pants when they saw that machine headed towards their building lol

  • @lkw1350
    @lkw1350 3 месяца назад +573

    I was there that day, I was 13. I was in the shop across from the propane tanks, on the dirt road where they tried to park the road scraper to block the dozer. It was obviously a very strange day.We think he came down to shoot the propane tanks hoping they would explode and damage the bridge over the railroad tracks and the river coming into town. The tanks were much closer to the bridge and the tracks then, they moved them to where you saw them when they were replaced. When it was happening, no one knew what was going on, there was this tank thing no one had ever seen before just fucking shit up. It was wild, like the cop said in the video there was no Grandby police, only the Sheriff . I remember before the sheriff could start to figure out what to do the citizens were shooting at the dozer. The Sheriffs and the state troopers were all spread out, no one knew if the dozer was shooting or the cops we shooting. It was the slowest chaos. After he got stuck and the stand off and it was over, the city didn't know what to do with the dozer. They moved the dozer over to the CDOT storage area down the highway out of town. My Uncle took me to see it a few days later. It was a crazy machine. They had to cut it up to actually get it out of town cuz it was so heavy. The way I remember the perception of what happened was that he was a guy that got screwed, tried to speak up and was shut down for small town politics. At the time Granby was small, there was only one restaurant, the only real industry there was the concrete plant, so they were bringing in a lot of money and used that influence. He wasn't a crazy guy, he did a crazy thing, in the end it was just sad. It definitely changed Grandby, in different ways. It put Grandby on the map for one, everyone in the country knew about it overnight. It also kinda started a bit of gentrification in the town, slowly we got these nicer, newer buildings, it made the other shitty buildings look shittier, Grandby realized they needed to rebuild into the stereotypical Colorado mountain town main drag to soak up some of the tourism. You did a good job with this, and it meant a lot to that family that you gave them that truck.

    What started it was Martin bought the muffler shop but the guy that owned the cement plant right next door actually wanted it also. Marvin was not a native of the town but the cement plant guy was, so he had contacts in the community and city Council. The real problem was that the only way to get the muffler shop connected to the city sewer, which the city Council suddenly insisted that he do, or they would fine him a ton of money daily, which they did. Problem was,, the only way to get connected was to go through the cement plant property, but that guy was mad he didn't get the muffler shop so he refused. They backed Marvin into a corner and he flipped out. I don't blame him at all. To those that say "there was a better way to resolve it" are full of it, because there WAS no way to resolve it, other than to sell the muffler shop.

    I came back from Afghanistan in 2014 and started a business in Deltona Florida. Code enforcement had a bone to pick with me right away. Long story short, I lost that business before it even had the chance to flourish. After that I lost almost everything I owned so I can totally understand how this guy felt. In hindsight I can see how I didn’t help the situation but my main takeaway is that code enforcement & the city in general has wayyy too much power & they won’t hesitate to kick the little guy while he’s down if he’s just trying to stand his ground & make an honest living.
