its low definition despite what the tittle says. enjoyable documentary though. I like seeing and hearing about how they worked many years ago. I think its safe to say, those guys were more man than I'll ever be. show up for work and the boss says, "drop that 5 ft diameter redwood, with this 2 sided axe." me, "where do I get my safety glasses and gloves?" boss,
Will watch this one later but expect it should be a good one except that these things tend to blow things out of proportions when it comes to danger. Yes, it can be dangerous but not usually as bad as the documentaries want you to believe. Yes, I know; I've worked in the woods and we also have a few others on this forum who are still working in the woods. I think they will agree it can be dangerous, but it doesn't get as dangerous as the tv guys want you to believe. Also, today it is not as dangerous as it was, say, in 1850.
Higher odds of a life altering accident than say trudging to work every day for Pricewaterhousecoopers or Deloitte Touche Ross.
Enjoyed it!!! Thanks Felter. Now I know where the term "skid row" comes from. Ill be quizing the guys at work about that.
