Glad your back on THANKS.
I'm glad to be back!
You're BAAACK! So glad! Hope you have been well, Joe!
All has been well. Had a long journey, time on shore with family and now finally getting content made for all of you!
It’s been 40 years since I was a crane mechanic, this was a fun watch. Thanks Joe and glad you’re back.
Thanks!
Joe proving that a great story teller can make any subject interesting.
Welcome back, Joe! I craned my neck noticing your post!
Awesome to see you again, Joe! Great video! 😊
Joe, glad to see you back! We've missed you
I am glad to have some time off to make some videos for you all to enjoy!
My first duty station in the Navy after graduating from air traffic control school was Kodiak, Alaska. Periodically a cargo ship would arrive and would need to be either offloaded or loaded or both. The call would go out for a working party to assist with this effort. I was part of this working party several times.
Your points you made about situational awareness are excellent! You’ve got to keep your wits about you. It’s really easy to get hurt!
Yeah, Joe's back!
That's what's up!!
I'll join the "Joe's back!" Crowd. Glad you are.
Pumped to see you posting again! You've got a serious talent for documentary filmmaking.
Hi Joe. I really like your videos. You do a great job teaching people what it is like at sea. I dreamt of it as a kid. In the 80's the opportunities were far, few and in between. You had to know somebody to get in. I became a Union Carpenter and am almost ready to retire. I have been an avid Lake Michigan sailboat sailor most of my life. Every time I see the big ships, I think...wow....I so wanted that trade. But I'm ok with my 30+ years in commercial construction. I'm glad you are sharing your experience in a humble way. Great job!!
The mishap reenactment guy and the hardhat rolling away. 'Whoa!' 😂💀
This would make a great safety video.
I've always had a very soft spot for cranes. They're just so...majestic.
Informative and entertaining as always. Love cranes. Years back my neighbor had a 40-year-old Pin Oak taken out. Very close to both houses. They brought in a huge crane on wheels. Actually, had to take out a hedge to get it in close. Lifted 8-10 foot sections of that tree and dropped it neatly onto the street. Hello from sunny Oregon.
Oh now this is what I’m talking about
Welcome back mate. 👍👍👍👍😎✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
What a cool and informative video, much i learned from that Joe, great to see your content again. Miss is it buddy when its not there!
Glad to see you back brother
It’s so good to see a video from you again Joe. So many great story tellers have left The Tube lately and I thought you were another one gone. God Speed my friend.
5:29 It looked as if your camera was attached to the block facing toward the hook; that's an interesting camera angle providing a unique perspective. Your signalman, Jeff, gave clear, concise signals that were easy for the crane operator to see at a distance. That was a good technique.
This is such a clear, well-edited, and well-voiced video. I've worked with multinational crane and lift manufacturers and I've never seen their professional media departments put out videos this good. Great to see you back, this is fantastic.
Kept searching for you every day,glad you’re back🏴
I really enjoy your videos! Happy to see some fresh content!!!!
Glad to see a new video from you! Appreciate it
Yey been waiting for your next upload!
Glad you’re back
You packed a ton of info into this quick video. Very well done. I can tell this one took a lot of work!
YES HES BACK
You totally deserve to be granted as an educational channel.
Joe, we have been waiting to hear from you. Glad you are back!
I appreciate that! Had a long stint at sea. Back on land preparing lots of videos!
Thanks Joe, Have you considered making documentaries your next gig?
Joe! Where the heck have you been man? I thought you must have got lost in the Bermuda Triangle. Glad to see you back. Incidently what is this video about, I'm getting a feeling that it is about cranes.....🤣
Ha After a long stretch at sea. I got sucked into a vortex crazier then the Bermuda Triangle... my hometown in New Jersey.
Loved this Joe. It was an uplifting experience
Seems he should use bright reflective orange or green highlights viz gloves for easier contrast between background, or shadows
Missed you. Good to see you back.
Always loving to see your video´s

Thank goodness, great to see you back and even better to see that you made it to Lyttelton 👍
Lyttelton was a great port!

Thanks Joe. The signals shown were exactly the same ones used in my 24 year USN career.
Thanks Joe. Great to see you again...
Good to have you posting videos again.

Ahoy Mate! Glad to see you're back with new material. Keep up the good work.
Very inteersting as always!
I've learnt something today, I watched your RV post last week and commented about your next ship post, thanks Joe glad you're back , atb from England
Great to see some content again Joe. Welcome back 🎉
Hey Joe don't forget boom up or down holding the load that is opening and closing your fist with the thumb up or down and for extending the boom u can do 2 fingers pointing in or out using just 1 hand which every way u want this keeps 1 hand free good to see u back
Was on a laker once and signaled for more slack to toss off a mooring like. The mate went the wrong way and I almost found out what life without fingers was like. Got back after we were backing off and she asked “did I get you?” 😳
Great to see you back Joe! You have been missed
Haha … cranes. I was working on a supply boat in the Gulf of Mexico. We hauled a huge Caterpillar generator to a super tanker. The crew on the super tanker wanted to only use slings. Our captain kept arguing with them that they needed to rig at least spreaders but the tanker crew refused. So, two wirerope slings on opposite corners of the skids of the generator. Our captain told us to be ready to bail over the side when the generator flipped and got squirrelly. Sure enough, in 6-8 foot seas, the crane operator lifts the generator a few feet off of the deck. It immediately flipped and started getting bashed to pieces on our deck as we moved up and down relative to the tanker. Captain was on the radio yelling to lift, lift. Then the operator instead of swinging over the stern, swings over the boat and wheelhouse. Cap ordered us to hang by our hands over the side of the wheelhouse. Then the cussing back and forth ensued.
Glad your back
THE RETURN OF THE KING
Welcome back Joe, cheers from Australia.
Pretty much the same signals as we used when I was in construction. The signals portion felt a little like a training video. LOL. Great video!!
Glad you’re back Joe! Keep these video coming my friend!
Got a few in pipes. Keep an eye on the channel!
Glad you're back. Good episode. 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Aw ya! Good day when Joe post! Good to see you. Seems like awhile
Keep the vids comin
I got a bunch lined up!
good to see you back joe
That one scene was reminiscent of ‘shake hands with danger’. For those not familiar they were safety videos from the 80’s
Happy to see you are back at sea.
So glad your back with your informative videos. Love the content and delivery.
Thanks so much!
Awesome dude 👍
Glad you liked it
Hey, Welcome back Joe. Best wishes from the UK
Glad you're back!
Wonderful to have you back! I love your channel!
Thank you so much!
Welcome back Joe! Excellent video sir! I work at a factory that makes mining equipment and we a lot of cranes, from 1/2 T jibs to 125 T gantries. We do alot of the same lifts.
I work on ship to shore cranes. I’ve done a few small repairs on ships cranes but not many.
nice to see you're back again!
Ah, your back! Good to hear from you.
Glad to see you back on
Yay you’re back!!! Great video. Learned a lot. 😊
Great to see you back. Great content as always mate!
Hadn't heard the word slop chest since I was a kid, Dad was a merchant mariner. Funny
Interesting, educational, and entertaining. Thanks.
You have a unique angle.
Thank you so much that you're finally back.
More to come!
Yessss, cant wait for more!
Glad your back too, didn’t see any RV video this past 4 month I assume you just chill this time around be safe out there 😊
Exactly. I worked a long job then spent some time with family.
Expecting more videos to come!! ❤
Finally got some Quality content !
Thank you for this safety video on CRANE types and mostly operations 😊❤ great job. When I bought my used 1978 Backhoe the backhoe end did NOT have a solenoid valve to stop the boom from dropping if a Hydraulic line split open. Very dangerous, there was a opinion in owners manual to show two valves on each side of control levers to LOCK out hydraulic flow. My backhoe dropped suddenly when one of my hydraulic lines cracked from age and blasted Hydraulic fluid all over me. After that I only do any lifting ( craning) with the front loader bucket. It has TWO hydraulic rams on each side so it will not drop uncontrollably
Its a lesson I investigated on all equipment to see if they had safty solenoid for preventing the hydraulic from dropping a load you lift, or do you have a redundant Hydraulic system in place to counter to loss of fluid from one cylinder.
Thanks for the new video joe. We missed ya
Glad to see you back!
Welcome back Joe. It’s terrific to see you back on your channel. Trusting that you and your crew mates are well. Do you have any thoughts on the crash of the MV Dali or any insights into the problems that caused the crash.
Wishing you and your team a great week, smooth seas and peaceful, seasonally appropriate weather. Peace brother
I'll probably do a video on the MV Dali crash at some point.
Awesome stuff... glad you're back
Glad you’re back!!
Missed your videos.💪
Glad to see you are back with a video!
