The doco is a ripper despite its age. I've watched it quite a few times now. His take on the changing face of the city as stacks came down and taller buildings went up, was a snapshot of an era that few historians could muster in their telling of it. A master of his craft, able to explain in simple yet precise terns, why each step needed to happen in the way it did
That was so compelling and I love that accent (Yorkshire?) English spoken but almost as another language...
Love this. His last words: "I'm gonna to die in bed with me boots on" - I wonder if he did.
"An inventive child, Dibnah and some friends designed a makeshift diving suit from a crisp tin, a car inner tube and some piping." - from Wikipedia.
Ha! Brilliant!
That is amazing Adam! Thanks for posting! I work at AusPost and you must hear people moan about the work they have to do! They have no idea!
Very unsettling. I can’t cope at all with heights now I’m middle aged.
