I don't feel well after watching that and subsequent videos.

Balls of steel!

Watched a show about Fred Dibnah. He had planned the demolition of a chimney by knocking some holes in it and preparing a fire. Overnight an arsonist/some vandals broke onto the site and lit the fire, the chimney came down almost exactly where he said it would.

Madness to think how he was able to do all the climbing, if I get half way up a ladder I feel all queasy!

Lucky you get halfway up? I'm just glad I ended up at 5ft 9 and a bit otherwise it was a dizzy life for me?

Always a joy to watch. His old school demolition of the chimney using the prop and burn technique is staggering.

Weird thing is he wasn't asked to, just did it for the shits and giggles
