Multi-vehicle accident and explosion on US 41
An unlicensed driver, riding an off-road dirt bike with no lights was sideswiped and tossed off his bike. The Ford pickup that passed me, ran over the dirt bike that lay in the highway. The bike exploded, catching the pickup truck on fire. The man with the flashlight had first hit the motorcycle. The pickup driver didn't see it laying in the road before driving over it, puncturing the gas tank and causing the explosion. I pulled forward from where I had initially stopped because all I could smell was raw gasoline.
This occurred on US 41 in the southbound lanes, south of Farmersburg Indiana. The dirt bike rider was not severely injured. No other persons were injured. The dirt bike rider was a minor. The Sullivan County (Indiana) Sheriff's Department is in charge of the investigation.

Car pulled directly out in front of my tractor-trailer.

While driving south on Illinois State Highway 17, south of Beecher, this driver decides to pull out in front of me. Thankfully there was no oncoming traffic or this may very well have ended as a fatal accident. While passing the car, I could see the driver looking down at his phone. I hope he realizes just how close he came to being a statistic.
Tennessee thunderstorm seen from Indiana - October 2014
Переглядів 438 років тому
I was driving west on Interstate 64 in Indiana and kept seeing this very active thunderstorm off to my left. I finally stopped at an exit ramp near Holland Indiana to take video of the storm. The storm was over 150 miles away, between Nashville and Jackson, Tennessee, around 2 a.m. Central Time on October 8, 2014. Sorry for the excess noise of the zoom. I did not have my video camera with me, s...
Bald Eagle near its nest
Переглядів 328 років тому
This bald eagle was sitting in a sycamore tree over a creek in southern Sullivan County, Indiana on April 10, 2016. It's nest is nearby where two fledglings aren't quite ready to fly. I'm not sure if this was the male or female parent, but one is always watching the nest. Please excuse the shakiness of the video. I had planned on taking still shots only but this eagle was sitting about 100 feet...
Flatbed Truck hits Jeep

I caught this on my dash cam at the intersection of 13th Street and Washington in Terre Haute, Indiana on 15 November 2013 at 2:09pm. Sorry, I had forgotten to change the time after DST expired. The light was red for 13th and green on Washington. The Jeep was crossing 13th when the truck driver started to turn right on red - apparently not paying attention to traffic around him. I'm not sure of...

This video was shot by a local TV station videographer. The drag line, a Bucyrus-Erie 2570W, named Old Glory is on its way from the Farmersburg Mine to Bear Run Mine near Dugger, Indiana. The 18 mile walk is expected to take a least a month since the dragline 'walks' at a blazing speed of 1/10 mile per hour. Old Glory is owned by Peabody Energy of Saint Louis, Missouri.

This Bucyrus-Erie 2570W dragline named "Old Glory" is preparing to 'walk' across Indiana highway 48 near Shelburn. At 13-million pounds, Old Glory weighs more than 150 Boeing 737-700 jetliners. It towers 220-feet high and swings a 335-foot boom with a maximum operating radius of 300 feet, the length of a football field. This boom carries a 115-cubic-yard bucket capable of moving a 335,000 pound...

Where can a I find this as a video file to be used in a power point presentation.
Formally known as KATE at Old Ben Coal in the 70s.!!👍
The crazy part is. This thing still runs to this day and I happen to work where it runs. Thing is an absolute behemoth and a pleasure to watch
Thanks for the information in the description. I was seriously wondering what its dimensions and bucket size was. That is an impressive, good looking, and I would figure, well maintained machine. Of course, this comment is 12 years later.
The dragline remains in operation as if this date, mining coal in southern Sullivan County, Indiana. At the time of this video, the machine had been freshly painted and decaled.
@@larrywanders Thank you for the information. I am glad to know that. I have loved machines my whole life and hate to see one get scrapped.
Great footage - cheers mate
Is this the one that got stuck in the filled in pond
Larry...I seen you made a comment on a video that someone stole from pam aus... What happened to her channel...
UA-cam removed her account, claiming she was making money off the account and not sharing with them. After that mess was handled, she basically told YT to shove it.
@@larrywanders what a shame...I really want to meet and I loved her videos...to think eagles actually landed on her porch and had play time with cats...that is something only very very few people ever get to experience... If you have contact with her tell her hello and lots of love to her...she is the best...thank u for letting me know...I appreciate that...
Is that about a 10 yd bucket?
Its about 120 yards, maybe more.
It’s about 10-20yds yeah
What the fuck did the Jeep stop for? He had already cleared the intersection and the truck
No he hadn't cleared the truck, The Jeep is still moving at 0:10 when the truck hits him in the side.
I was one the night shift crew moving this monster,I will never forget it , this went within 100 yards of my inlaws place and my wife and kids got to see me , i was proud to be involed in such an undertaking.
I believe my uncle Max was one of them who, ran this machine for over 15 years! Which I could find someone who worked with this machine! Brent!!
Wow nice job.
i worked on the road for that to walk on 7 days a week 12 hours a day for 3 months
Definitely not small ;)
@larrywanders Now that i have started in the mining sector, i drive past one of those models twice a day :) And it is even bigger when you walk up to it!!
@larrywanders wow.. really this is unbelievable. Thanks a lot for the info :)
@NickHey It sure is. It weighs about 13,000,000 pounds.
@Manjula009 It depends on how far the machine must be moved. In this instance it "walked" under its own power. There are two 'feet' underneath that move the drag line backwards. The bucket is placed on the ground, then one foot plate is raised and moved back (see video at 0:57). The behemoth walks at about .25 miles per hour or .4km/h
Hey Larry, could you please describe in more detail how the bucket is treated during a walk- is it placed on the ground for each "step", or dragged, or what? That is one aspect of a dragline walk that is never portrayed. Thanks.
fk that is big
I see a spot were I could nap in that shoe...
how to transport this machines ? :S..part by part ?
amazing...
Why do they call the bottom a tub
Beeindruckende Aufnahmen, Great!!
@trainfart Yes - a bit larger than the trains of which you have excellent videos :)
Wow, what a monster ;)
@Napoleon501ste I didn't think it was a stupid question. I searched over 2 hours and could not find a definitive answer to your original question. Now you have me curious :P
@Napoleon501ste Not sure why you deleted question but here is the short answer. I have no frickin' clue :P
@Santaclausemikey Under our Constitution, a roll call vote (each Senator called name by name) must be held if demanded by one-fifth of a quorum of Senators present, a minimum of 11. In this instance, the roll call vote was demanded to affirm each Senator's vote was recorded and present to cast their vote.
True. As a working American, why should I pay for those who don't or won't work so they can have free health insurance? Want better health insurance? Get off your lazy ass and work for it.
Congress, both the House and Senate, along with President Obama ignore the wishes of the American people. Over 1/2 of the citizens want no part of this "reform". Yes this is a dark day for the United States of America when those elected to represent us do as they damn well please despite what we continue to tell them.
this is a dark day for the usa
