Was that you in the video? With the backlight, I couldn't see. You sounded like a 18 y/o.
In situations like this, would flags have helped in allowing Josh to see better? Most of the time the hood is in the way. Camera in the bumpers would be good too. Josh, I had to watch a few more times. Awesome.
Ha ha! At least ONE thing hasn't been ravaged by 44 years of abuse!
Yeah, that's good ol' me barking orders like a drill instructor. I did everything but call him a maggot! I can hear myself occasionally saying, "You're doing great." or some such thing. Truly benevolent..
I laughed nervously while watching it hoping that the outcome truly was the same as back in July!

Can't say I blame you for that! I'll be Keith would LOVE to do the same thing. But he would cut more like 5 YEARS.

I new I should have put a warning on it for you. I almost craped my pants on that second fall.
I still remember that rush I had when I got to the top nothing like it and I hope never again.
