John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Reminds me of my coaching days in the Yorkshire Dale's, HAWES to Keld or Mucha or over to Ingleton passing through Bolton Abbey gates, not enough room with mirrors extended, never mind meeting another vehicle coming the other way
And then he realised he should have taken the left at the fork... Brave driving for those parts, smoothly done! Hope there's an emergency dram of single malt in a breakglass for completing journeys like that.
satnav? no suprise. straight past the sign that says narrow bridge, sharp bends, impassable for coaches. on the lead upto two buildings just wide enough apart for a car in a village that was built before the motor car was a dream... "are you meant to come down here with these"? behave lol
I lived i an ex horse box lorry 8 years ago and I went to do a job in kent ,I used my phone to give me a route and just at the last mile I get sent down a tiny lane with a railway bridge ,this was off a dual carriageway so NO chance of reversing back onto the road,I put a branch through the front side of the box above the cab,thankfully the bridge was ok ,typically a local person came out to tell me that I shouldn’t really be going down this route to which I agreed ,anyway i had an inch either side to spare ,how I managed it I will never know other than going very slowly and using my mirrors etc
As Drayman, I feel your pain brother. Mind you though that's some good driving there mate. I always feel a bit chuffed with myself, at the end of a tough drive like that.
As a relatively new pass driver I was once in a village where before proceeding I asked a local is it ok to take this ( 18T) down there , pointing to the narrowing route . Classic answer " you probably can but I wouldn't " . 20 point turn later I was on my way all the round to the drop grateful for that advice. Had a few underpant changing moments since though.
And now for his next amazing trick, watch him thread a needle blindfolded while free-falling 4500 meters. That was skillfully done with a liberal dose of patience!
I once got stuck in a small village in Malta and the whole village turned out to back me up and go forward for about two hours till I finally got out of there. The leader of the village came out and said to me “what would you English people do without us Maltese? “. I said “cheers “. As American I found it very funny
This happened to me in Greece. Rented a VW 12-passenger van for extended family drive while in port in Rhodes. Heading back to the ship at the end of the day, the roads got increasingly narrower, until we got to a spot where we could no longer move forward. Had to figure out how to fold in the mirrors, but still ended up slightly scraping the side of the van. Stressful at the time, but we now look back and laugh.
I had to drive a bus which served several villages in my local area, one lane I had to drive the thing down had high hedgerows that were just wider than the bus for around two miles. If I met a tractor it was interesting to say the least. The thing was tho that I drove that bus the whole route of around 20 miles and not one person ever used it. But when the service was cut there was all hell to pay from the locals
Looks like dent in Cumbria?
It is
Like what size truck n trailer I wonder
Amazing driving, you deserve a medal
Who are these idiots who order stuff on lanes not built for 🚚

That was so satisfying to watch! Well done!
Thank you 😊
Wow, that is some close quarters driving there...
Dent in N Yorkshire. And this is actually the "main" road through the village.
Reminds me of my coaching days in the Yorkshire Dale's, HAWES to Keld or Mucha or over to Ingleton passing through Bolton Abbey gates, not enough room with mirrors extended, never mind meeting another vehicle coming the other way
beautiful place tho
Looks like Compo, Clegg and Foggy country😂….guessing Yorkshire by the walls and cottages.
Did I just hear a stall 😭🤪
Imagine if it was a busy summer bank holiday and there were 100 cars trying to drive through the same village 😅
Those streets looked as tight as Port Issac. Well done.
Get a big helicopter
Briton was not built for HGV's

Good grief! I would be tempted to get out, leave the truck there and resign. 🤦♂

I've seen plenty of drivers that would struggle getting a mini up that road. I thought you were stuck. Well done!

Easy money bang bang
Tighter than a flies arse that bud, glad you got through.
My heart rate went up just watching this!!
That’s the appropriately named village of Dent, in North Yorkshire
You bush brusher.

GPS navigation not advised.
Random recommendation 😂
Fucking Dent
Wow very skilful driving, I’d struggle getting my moped through there lol
Looks a nice place, where is it?

I feel for you, I've also been in these situations
The scumbags who talk about replacing HGV drivers with self-driving lorries should be forced to watch this on a loop.
I wish I could see the mirrors.
Not enough diversity in that village better get on to the diversity board
04:33 optimistic 60mph national speed limit signs.
Is there a weight restriction through this village ?
Nope
you fookin hero!!!
Wow! Pretty stressful… I’d need a swig of something strong to calm my nerves after that (or maybe before, lol).

this is unreal. The poor driver's stress be hitting an all time high lmaaaaooooooooo
Shortcut found...? 😂🤦
Why the bystanders smile tho?
Now it’s possible to choose what type of satnav you need , car truck or camper/ caravan and it will avoid all these places

This is a small village, but London's getting just as nightmarish in parts !
