3-Year-Old Kid Runs a Mini Excavator

ant says...

>> ^beelzerob:
No, I'd still call it incredibly stupid. Maneuvering that close to a clearly steep drop-off? Stupid. If Jr. starts heading towards it and panics, you're going to trust his life to grandpa being able to jump up there and take control? Stupid.


And no helmets!

Interesting site, but crap video... we don't need to see the guy with the stupid glasses at the beginning and and end, we could do with some more explanation of what we're seeing and why it's amazing, we could generally just do better than a bunch of photos from an expedition.


i agree, but this was the best video i found about ths excavation i'll keep my eyes out for something better, a news report or something with a better narrative.

Unlocking the Secrets of the Universe

It was initially costed to be around 1.6bn in the late 80's just prior to the project starting. The costs blew out to over 4 times that due to under-costing the expense of engineers and the equipment required to excavate the larger holes/chambers for the detectors.

So Id definatly say its a lot closer to 9bn, if not more.

For those of you not Fearing of the living God , and think we who are , are insane, just consider the lessons of history to see if there is really divine intervention in matters of SIN gone wild, take the Roman city Pompeii for just one example, read the following facts.
Walking into homes and shops in Pompeii is to marvel at the fully-intact buildings. You expect to meet the toga-clad owner asking where you are from.

When excavation started in earnest in 1860, scientists were shocked at the level of preservation -- and perversion.

Walls in the town are often covered in sexually-explicit graffiti. If you know Latin, visitors can read who was doing what to whom almost 2000 years ago.

The brothels of Pompeii are open to tourists -- although no longer carrying on business. The erotic frescoes found inside one brothel would make a sailor blush. The two-storey house, called Lupanare, is the top draw in the town. The services offered and a price list was displayed in the street.

The "House of the Vettii" is a luxurious and well-preserved private home not far from the brothel. Surrounding two courtyards, Vettii is rich in decoration and colour. The house looks remarkably like the set of a Hollywood film about Rome.

Finally, head to the town’s forum. In Roman times, it was the centre of public and political life of any Roman city. The large square is enclosed by colonnades and has a spectacular view of Mount Vesuvius.

After a full day of walking the site, jumping back on the train to Naples will be welcomed. Next morning, consider a visit to the National Museum in Naples to view some of the artifacts found in Pompeii that needed to be preserved off site. Also consider a trip to the volcano which caused Pompeii's misfortune -- buses leave from the Naples train station for Mount Vesuvius about once an hour. Don’t worry, Vesuvius is safe now…mind you, they probably thought that 2000 years ago too.
DIVINE INTRVENTION OR COINCIDENCE, THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE !

That clip is from Visual Concept Entertainment's documentary Trinity and Beyond, aka The Atomic Bomb Movie. They have also couple other documentaries around same subject.

That's really impressive; would like to know more about it. It sure looks like a collapsing seaside excavation, and a dangerous excavation that would be. BTW, what does this have to do with the travel channel, unless you like to travel to exotic natural disaster locations?

ZEITGEIST, The Movie - Official Release - Full Film

I get what they're trying to say....

But US government trying to make their people dumber by giving all this entertainment, mass media and drugs and alcohol to keep the mind entertained? WTF?

And Josephus' work is a forgery?? National Geographic Channel had just done a special of James, the brother of Christ, and was actually excavating his ossuary. And as you might know, the reason why Josephus is controversial is because in his writings he claims that there's a brother of Jesus named James, which Catholic church denies as their official gospels don't mention him at all.

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2003/04/0418_030418_jesusrelic.html

There's the debate of whether this is real or not, but there's not much debate on the authentication of Josephus.

All these various gods born in Dec 25th... Yea I couldn't find any evidence of this either. They're mythical gods, why would the story telling give them birthdates? They're suppose to have existed for eons upon eons.

So what bullshit is this? I find it very ironic how this film talks about television controlling your mind and the information you get, and at the same time feed you this incorrect info.

Some other points that this movie makes is intriguing, but mixing in anarchist conspiracy theorists to represent your ideals, is just bad idea.

I believe this movie doesn't have enough credibility. Way too Anarcho / anti-government conspiracy friendly to be legitimate.

Sheriff Allows Illegal Trespass
