SW “Ohia”
Supa Dexta,

A good friend of mine introduced me to his videos a couple years ago. (Hey Larry! I’m sure you’ll read this thread.)

It’s neat to hear Dibnah talk about his smokestack work. His job was to remove that last vestiges of the mighty English manufacturing industry that made the country a world power.

He was an interesting mechanical type. His quotes are good too!

“I've never fell off a big chimney. You'd only fall off one of them once."

“I set out as a steeplejack in my youth to preserve chimneys. I've finished by knocking most of them down."

“I'm just a bum who climbs chimneys."

“Teaching boys to bake cakes? That's no way to maintain an industrial empire."

“The modern world stinks."
