Very cool - You did a really good job of encompassing what its like hanging out with Andrew. He's just like you would imagine him to be after seeing a few of his videos. Its unique to find someone with so much popularity who is a genuine as this guy is. Great questions too very good stuff here.
Thank you very much! It's very true what you said, Andrew is himself whether the camera is on or not. The person and personality people see in his videos is genuine. Just an all around great guy!
Thank you both @B-Rad & @CerebralAilment for sharing your visits! If you head down again @Cerebral, pick me up on your way through SoPo... I'd gladly pay for gas & lodging for a visit to the Camarata Custom Oasis!
Thank goodness he's against selling his soul to reality TV . Every thing reality tv gets there hands on they destroy . Go your way Andrew we love your channel as is. Nothing fake , no exaggeration . Just plane work and fun.
There was a point in this video where Andrew mentioned that young kids could watch his videos and that is very true. My Grandsons 8 and 4 sit curled up with their Dad and watch Andrew do his work. No swearing, no inappropriate comments, just a talented equipment operator mechanic guy sharing his daily life. I'm a fan.
Very true, I've been watching with my 4yo son for two years now. Found him because my son was fascinated with lawnmowers and Andrew happened to have a couple of videos fixing some. Been hooked since.
@@woofbark4475 My favorite toy at six yr. old was my Caterpiller dozer. The tracks fell off immediately but that didn't stop me from building sand pile roads and towns.
Yup...thats why I cannot stand that AvE guy with his profanity laced videos. Andrew is perfectly polite and doesn't need bad language and anger in his life.
He is a great guy, down to earth and hard working. That is something many younger people should take notice of. He also live alone, no family, put work as number 1 in life, possible, which is not for everyone.Wonder if he got any plans for family in the future, or prefere spending his life in the castle. Either way, he will do whatever makes him more happy, and it's alright
@@Rimrock300 I'd love to spend my days alone in a castle like his .. with the same drive for fixing stuff, building and creating things and generally boosting on in life. He seems to have it amazing!
He has plenty of idea. I dont get why people like to say this as if they are saying something profound. It's not profound and it's a little conceited. He talks to people, he is friendly with them, he understand this stuff gets others very interested and inspired and its part of why he does it and he knows it by the tens of thousands of comments he gets. If anyone knows, he would far more than me or you.
most UA-camrs that why they do videos is get good sponsors and get good money from it end day Andrew is still getting paid. people not going to make videos for the hell of it and not getting paid. Trust me Andrew still making good income just from UA-cam them self.
Andrew Camarata is a minimalist yet with a purpose. Everything he owns adds value. Nothing he owns is frivolous. He is the anti-consumer; unlike so many people. No skinny jeans and not glued to a smart phone yet he uses today's technology to create well done UA-cam videos. He is an inspiration. Thanks for posting the video.
This is one of the best interviews ever to be made, Brad, you did an AWESOME job, and Big THX to Andrew Camarata for allowing the time, and being a Great Host. Special thx to the Directors Levi & Cody for the Safety & Security.
A handy companion to the main AC channel, also pleased he hasn't sold his soul to the numerous companies that now plague many other channels with their 'in your face' product placement
I have watched and enjoyed Andrews videos for over five years. Each video delivered what I was hoping for which was Andrew doing what Andrew does. Create, design and WORK,WORK,WORK on every inch of his 90 acre mountain retreat. I turned 80 at the end of November 22. Sad to say my big project days are over, but watching Andrew attack each project with his army of equipment and his faithful dogs takes me back forty years to my ambitious youth. Thanks Andrew, carry on.
I guess Im being selfish when I say I want to see more and more of his videos. He works so hard and believe more contractors should care as much as he does.
Thank you both for your time and effort making this video, not forgetting the two super stars, Levi and Cody. In answer to the question, Who is Andrew Camarata? He his an all round inspiration to others, all over this planet. With regards from North Yorkshire, England .
Eu estou aqui no Brasil, estado de São Paulo, região noroeste do estado, na divisa com o Estado de Minas Gerais, aqui no município de Indiaporã, sou professor de escola pública, gosto muito do "mundo maker" e o Andrew é perfeito, sua linguagem é universal, MAKER
I am here in Brazil, in the state of São Paulo, in the northwest region of the state, on the border with the State of Minas Gerais, here in the municipality of Indiaporã, I am a public school teacher, I really like the "maker world" and Andrew is perfect, your language is universal, MAKER
This is a bright guy. Don’t care if someone is a doctor, lawyer or operates excavators. To be a success in this world you have to be good at what you do, no matter what that is. Andrew has his finger on the pulse of what he is doing and what he wants to create visually, and executes his plan every time. Great video. Thanks for making it.
Is A.C. not the most down to earth UA-camr & contractor you've ever seen ? Amazing really , seen his accomplishment of almost building this out himself ... Even i , as a European , am very intrested in his channel & have been watching him work for over 3 yrs now . I do follow other U.S. & U.K. based contractors on here of all sizes industries but he's by far & wide the most Joe Average down to earth meh guy off all . Something to be admired to be sure !
The main thing about A.C.is he really dosnt get big headed or lost in showbiz (up himself) on how insperational his videos are to people. He also seems to just enjoy doing what he does, I hope he carries on for a long time.
Fairly new to Andrew's channel. Not only do I enjoy watching the work he does, but find him easy to watch because of his aura of innocuousness, inoffensiveness, simplicity, and purity. Don't know if he is all those things, but he comes across that way. He exhibits a degree of naivete in his actions, but they aren't borne of ignorance, just simplicity. Sometimes he has to start over, but he gets it done. Add to all that the fact he loves dogs. Based on the number of subscribers and views it is apparent that a lot of people are drawn to what he possesses, or doesn't possess. The fact he hasn't allowed himself to sell out to corporate or media pressure is only an example of his character.
I watch Andy every time I get a notification, have been for a number of years now. I, like B-Rad, have always wanted to meet Andy. I may never meet him but he remains in my mind. I love watching Andy, I feel like I'm there.
Watch Loren on UA-cam [Loren and Sabia]. This young man, Loren, was driving a forklift like the huge ones at construction sites for lifting roof trusses and shingles up high. It rolled and he jumped right where the lift was going to land. Massive injuries, unbelievable.
@@shermgohn I just saw the channel, amazing guy. Terrible injuries, unbelievable that he survived. I am glad he is laughing and has the will to recover as much as possible
@@ZGGordan I was horrified to see Loren's condition. It was the same kind of lift that Andy jumped from only Andy had more time to process the situation at hand and absolutely made the right decision to bale when he did. Very sad for Loren. (Keep watching Andy, he is amazing and addicting)
I'm also a big fan of Andrews .. I watched container castle develope from nothing .. Hope you got to see it all as well man . The guys a genius isn't he .. there isn't anything he can't fix .
What amaze me about Andrew is, his versatility. His ability to work on solutions, instead of moping on the problem. Also, his sense of humour is quite refreshing. Thanks for sharing.
I am 66 years old I have watched all his videos. I have learned some and watch to bring back the times when I was younger. I wish I had skills when I was his age.
Andrew does what most of us men would have wanted to do at some point in our lives, but now that we are too old or that seems so unlikely, we live it through him. Watching a Camarata video is major therapy. It is so satisfying to see someone finish what he started. The dogs are a bonus, especially the playful, annoying scientist Cody. Andrew's friend Jesse Muller also has a channel worth watching similar to this, Andrew is the one, just like Abom79 is the real legend and Mathew Cremona is the wood slabbing guy.
He is the "raccoon" guy, who makes caterpillars dance, and fixes car body with a drill! :D "good as new", who have 2 dogs, like offroad, and jet sky, and drone shoot. he is a good pal who fixes anything. :D He is a silent hero, and you did a good film about him.!
I can’t get enough of Andrew! What an amazing young man!! His work is unbelievable!! We watch him every day. The castle is so fabulous I love looking at it. I’m blown away by the amount Of knowledge Andrew has about so much. May God bless you mightly Andrew with a long fulfilling life. You have so much to offer. Thank you for your wonderful videos I enjoy them all!! I love Levi and Cody and their friends 🥰
I really enjoy Andrew's videos. I really like that he shows his mistakes and shows how he must stop mid-project to fix machines or fix problems. It's what always happens to me. Nothing ever goes as planned.
I stumbled across this video just looking for something interesting to watch. Although I watches others as well, but Andrew is at the top of the list. I think it's because of his practical approach to describing how a thing works... even when he's not sure himself, he doesn't try to fake his way about it One thing that really impressed me about him, was being stopped by the highway patrol officer because his truck was not properly licensed to be on the streets working, Andrew got on the case and corrected all the violations and he even presented them to his subscribers, now that impressed me.
I discovered Andrew on You Tube a little over a year ago. Now the wife and I are both subscribers. A very talented young man. Glad you go to meet Levy before he passed.
Brad i already rated Andrew at 5 stars but now i got give him 6 stars because since i heard him talking about turning down product endorsements & free stuff because he wanted his channel to be fully in his control and after the last 3 years he really has not done one endorsement the only ad's are what youtube places mostly on the cell viewers ! His style has kept me watching the last 3 years my first watched video was when they put the first floor slabs on top the containers and i think i seen every one his videos since then ! Thank you for doing this kind of behind the scenes interview with him and bringing everyone more up on the real Andrew Camarata !
SURGE BRAKES . Couldn’t back up my boat trailer because I installed the axle backwards. Turned it around and surge brakes backed up fine. Andrew is amazing, watched him religiously for years.
I like how he starts his shows most UA-camrs spend 25 minutes on a 30 minute show talking about what they are going to do then spend 5 minutes doing it he doesn't he gets right to work I love it
Good interview. I forget who it was that I subscribed to first but it was either Andrew or Essential Craftsman. For me, the appeal about Andrew is his attitude. I always remember the video he did installing a drain field and the inspector or the owner (I forget which) made him re-do it like 3 or 4 times, by no fault of his. But he persisted and just did it. Most people (likely including myself) would have told them to shove it and walked away, but he didn’t. He just pressed on and finished it. Very impressive attitude.
This guy is as humble as you can get. AWSOME channel, amazing mix of work, machinery, repairs, rambling and humor. He makes a 2 hour vid ... I watch the 2 hours.
A very nice watch. Well done! Have to say I'm a fairly unexpected fan of Andrew Camarata. Or his work, I should say, rather. No BS. No clickbait thumbnails. No begging for likes and subscriptions. No name-dropping of companies or other youtubers. No sneaky promos. No begging for people to fund his life and hobbies through Patreon, or worse. He just gets on with things, mostly calm and collected, and takes everything in his stride. The amount of stuff I've learnt from watching his videos about fixing, operating and maintaining stuff is mind-blowing. So, very nice to see a little more of the person behind. Though, expectedly, he is just the same guy as comes across in all his videos :)
We absolutely love all AC's videos. But this interview shows alot more detail with what Andrew does and thinks. Well done both of you. Blessings from Ohio.
I started watching and following Andrew back in 2016 when he only had 25k subs, he's really taken off because he's genuine and has great content. A bit crazy and unorthodox but a smart kid and a hard worker.
Andrew has built the American Castle of every working man's dream I am very happy for him he just pushed me into looking for property instead of looking for a house the peace and serenity I'm opening the door letting your dogs go play being able to work when you work with mint it's just all so beautiful great job Andrew totally love your Castle
I run a landscape company in Calgary Canada. I have a plow truck and that is how I found you, you had a segment on plow truck maintenance, so I tuned in. I also have a lake front property near Revelstoke British Columbia. where I was planning on doing similar stuff you already have done. 6 acres and lots of privacy, planning on buying a excavator and building my own roads.
I enjoy watching Andrew work and admire his ability to fix things that he breaks...Ha! Just kidding, but he can fix and restore stuff and seems to know a lot about engines and machines. Loe the dogs, also. He is a unique guy. Thanks for the interview.
I remember when he put up the spancrete across the base containers .. that was my first video I ever saw of Andrews .. I've been hooked every since .. If this is your start I'm given you 2👍 up .. great content man . Love your questions , great stuff .. noone has ever gotten up close and personal with Andrew on this level .. Hope you do more videos man ..
Andrew is tenacious. He always finds a way to solve a problem or to get a project done. He fixes all of his own equipment, and of course, has built his 'Castle Camarata' over the past few years while continuing to do his excavating work around his community. His dog Levi, lived until about a week after this video was posted. He was 2 days short of his 15th birthday. The other dog, Cody, is only a year old.
I commented one other time on another older video which I found scrolling through youtube videos. I said then I was fascinated by his down to earth personality and his true desire to work things out himself no matter how difficult things got, one after another. It made me feel so at ease and calm. I am a fan. I am a 74 year old asian male and wish Andrew all the best that youtube can offer.
Andrew is genuinely just a good person, he honestly just thinks so differently from most UA-camrs. He’s not in it for money or fame, just filming his life and what he loves to do. I respect that a lot
Andrew is a really fascinating guy and a true hands-on artist. I've been following him since early in the castle build and have enjoyed every upload since. I must also give credit to Brad for the making of this interview where you really opened up Andrew to speak his desires and thoughts about his life dreams. Very well done.
Brilliant! A thorough, sincere, and honoring video record of a true polymath who is unaware of his talent. His prowess is surpassed only by his humility and gentle spirit. He would fit perfectly here in Alabama. God Bless you B-Rad and Andrew. We can't wait to see what's next!
Andrew is a very genuine person. I think why is his channel does so well is because he does not really need UA-cam to keep doing what he enjoys and loves.
Andrew has wisdom and clarity of purpose. He is an artist in the purest sense - uncompromising, unapologetic, continually evolving. Imagine if we all exercised that kind of freedom.
You did a great job on this. I'm a little envious you were able to spend time there talking to him. It was very interesting getting to hear a lot of what Andrew had to say and you asked a lot of things that I've wondered myself. I think one of the biggest things that makes him so likable is that he's not afraid to be himself. He does and says what he wants, and he clearly didn't let a lot of things bother him as comes across as a very unstressed person. He lives a true life of freedom, doesn't care much of materialistic things, has a lot of great ideas on how things should be built and work, and he's incredibly intelligent. He's a true jack of all trades. There's also something about how he puts his videos together. I never thought I'd spend over an hour watching a guy work on a piece of equipment and be thoroughly entertained. Plus, who doesn't like a guy who uses a chainsaw to install a radio in his truck? Lol. Thank you for doing this.
Andrew is so genuine and real. Andrew, don’t change anything. My Granddaughter (11yrs old), really enjoys watching what you are doing, and how you are doing it.
Andrew was the first channel I subscribed to on UA-cam. Actually got to meet him and mowed part of a field on his Ford Tractor. Great guy. Questions I would have asked: 1.) one video was filmed by another individual with Andrew just talking. How did he feel about that experience? 2.) Did he fire the female “employee” who assisted in the window and door installation on the upper sections of the container castle? Thanks for the great video!
@@dansbrown1313 His sister is married and lives up in Vermont near Burlington.... big into skiing. Andrew up loaded a video of her wedding reception with Dad singing and playing guitar in a band he was in. Andrew is not married, had a girlfriend who helped him on some of his castle building videos.
@@alb12345672 His Container Castle is near West Saugerties, I used to live down near him. You can actually see the container castle from google earth 🌍
Andrew's...well, castle is one of the best shipping container desings I have seen. I too came across that channel by looking for shipping container houses. That guy is living the dream...
That’s why I watch Andrews channel. He’s a real dude and isn’t all fake with catch baits and sponsors. Watch him so much in our house he’s like family. Including Levi (rest his soul) and Cody. Thanks for the video. Nice job interviewing AC.
I said kind of the same thing on a different video. I said he should do shirts with his sayings like measure never drill 3 times, if your gonna jump don't jump where the crane is gonna end up, if you can survive a 3 wheeler you can survive anything, well looks like I'm getting some new parts after this... or one with a check list like wrench check, impact check touch check cut-off wheel. But anyway you understand what I was getting at, and I believe people would buy the stupid fast
Very cool - You did a really good job of encompassing what its like hanging out with Andrew. He's just like you would imagine him to be after seeing a few of his videos.
Its unique to find someone with so much popularity who is a genuine as this guy is.
Great questions too very good stuff here.
Very nice work, thank you.
Thank you very much! It's very true what you said, Andrew is himself whether the camera is on or not. The person and personality people see in his videos is genuine. Just an all around great guy!
Keep up the good work I like how your not afraid to rip something apart to fix it and like the equipment work also
*Andrew Camarata is the kind of guy who always lets you sit in the front seat with your head out the window.*
Thank you both @B-Rad & @CerebralAilment for sharing your visits!
If you head down again @Cerebral, pick me up on your way through SoPo... I'd gladly pay for gas & lodging for a visit to the Camarata Custom Oasis!

Couldn't agree more

Yes, my 3 year old has been watching him for at least year and now my 1 yr old watches along with us.
"I'm going to keep the channel the way it is forever". YESSSSSSS!!!
I don't think he has any idea what an impact he has on people. I think he's what I consider to be a good human ,that has more energy than 3 people.
He is a great guy, down to earth and hard working. That is something many younger people should take notice of. He also live alone, no family, put work as number 1 in life, possible, which is not for everyone.Wonder if he got any plans for family in the future, or prefere spending his life in the castle.

Awesome video. Love how Andrew is humble and doesn’t want sponsors.
Rest easy Levi
God bless Levi. He looks like my Daisy who went to sit in heaven
most UA-camrs that why they do videos is get good sponsors and get good money from it end day Andrew is still getting paid. people not going to make videos for the hell of it and not getting paid. Trust me Andrew still making good income just from UA-cam them self.

and the best thing about Andrew..he is not greedy..never has ever asked for patreon..just a class act..best guy on YT..
My favorite is the vacuum cleaner. "These things are everywhere." Yet he continues to take it apart 5 more times.
I am 66 years old I have watched all his videos. I have learned some and watch to bring back the times when I was younger. I wish I had skills when I was his age.

That was classic.
oh there is so much more!
RIP Levi, it was good to see him running around again. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Brad i already rated Andrew at 5 stars but now i got give him 6 stars because since i heard him talking about turning down product endorsements & free stuff because he wanted his channel to be fully in his control and after the last 3 years he really has not done one endorsement the only ad's are what youtube places mostly on the cell viewers ! His style has kept me watching the last 3 years my first watched video was when they put the first floor slabs on top the containers and i think i seen every one his videos since then ! Thank you for doing this kind of behind the scenes interview with him and bringing everyone more up on the real Andrew Camarata !
SURGE BRAKES . Couldn’t back up my boat trailer because I installed the axle backwards. Turned it around and surge brakes backed up fine. Andrew is amazing, watched him religiously for years.
I like how he starts his shows most UA-camrs spend 25 minutes on a 30 minute show talking about what they are going to do then spend 5 minutes doing it he doesn't he gets right to work I love it
Anyone notice the shop looked cleaner than ever before, lol
Andrew has his way of doing things and I enjoy watching. The interaction with the dogs is also great.
Good interview. I forget who it was that I subscribed to first but it was either Andrew or Essential Craftsman.
For me, the appeal about Andrew is his attitude. I always remember the video he did installing a drain field and the inspector or the owner (I forget which) made him re-do it like 3 or 4 times, by no fault of his. But he persisted and just did it. Most people (likely including myself) would have told them to shove it and walked away, but he didn’t. He just pressed on and finished it. Very impressive attitude.
This guy is as humble as you can get. AWSOME channel, amazing mix of work, machinery, repairs, rambling and humor. He makes a 2 hour vid ... I watch the 2 hours.
A very nice watch. Well done! Have to say I'm a fairly unexpected fan of Andrew Camarata. Or his work, I should say, rather. No BS. No clickbait thumbnails. No begging for likes and subscriptions. No name-dropping of companies or other youtubers. No sneaky promos. No begging for people to fund his life and hobbies through Patreon, or worse. He just gets on with things, mostly calm and collected, and takes everything in his stride. The amount of stuff I've learnt from watching his videos about fixing, operating and maintaining stuff is mind-blowing. So, very nice to see a little more of the person behind. Though, expectedly, he is just the same guy as comes across in all his videos :)
I PAY THE $12 A MONTH FOR PREMIUM , NO ADS, BUT SOME DO SPONSOR, BUT I BEEN FOLLOWIN HIS PATH FOR A WHILE, THUMBS UP FOR THE EXECTIVE PRODUCERS
We absolutely love all AC's videos. But this interview shows alot more detail with what Andrew does and thinks. Well done both of you. Blessings from Ohio.
Thank you for the A.C. "Deep Dive". I feel whole now.
no doubt Andrew is the King DIY guy of all times he can and will fix anything he will try anything
Nice Job, this is a great video for new and old fans of Andrew. Thank You for sharing your work with us. Solid Work.
Thank you!
This guy can fix, build, weld, dig, operate anything. I love this show and he is from my hometown of Saugerties, NY. Actually from Glasco. Great show.
I started watching and following Andrew back in 2016 when he only had 25k subs, he's really taken off because he's genuine and has great content. A bit crazy and unorthodox but a smart kid and a hard worker.
Levi i will miss u bud.. was a pleasure to watch u live ur doggo life.
Andrew has built the American Castle of every working man's dream I am very happy for him he just pushed me into looking for property instead of looking for a house the peace and serenity I'm opening the door letting your dogs go play being able to work when you work with mint it's just all so beautiful great job Andrew totally love your Castle
I always look froward to Andy's videos. Especially the updates on Levi.
Andy's remodel via chain saw was the best.
I dropped on Andrew's channel by accident, but straight off i could see he was just a genuine hard working guy, never missed a video since.
I run a landscape company in Calgary Canada. I have a plow truck and that is how I found you, you had a segment on plow truck maintenance, so I tuned in. I also have a lake front property near Revelstoke British Columbia. where I was planning on doing similar stuff you already have done. 6 acres and lots of privacy, planning on buying a excavator and building my own roads.
I WISHED U THE BEST OF LIFE ANDREW STAY COOL...GOOD LUCK AND GOD BLESS,,T.Y....WAITING FOR MORE PROJECT TO COME....
From France. Hi, it's a great pleasure to watch your videos. I know your place of life now, it is a place that I love. Change nothing.
Nicely done. Glad you finally got to meet Andrew after all the travails with Covid and whatnot. Nice to see some more footage of Levi. RIP.
I enjoy watching Andrew work and admire his ability to fix things that he breaks...Ha! Just kidding, but he can fix and restore stuff and seems to know a lot about engines and machines. Loe the dogs, also. He is a unique guy. Thanks for the interview.
I love this video. It's giving me experience of hanging out with Andrew 😁
Genuine guy unaffected by fame and the lure of easy money. That's why I watch!
I remember when he put up the spancrete across the base containers .. that was my first video I ever saw of Andrews .. I've been hooked every since .. If this is your start I'm given you 2👍 up .. great content man . Love your questions , great stuff .. noone has ever gotten up close and personal with Andrew on this level .. Hope you do more videos man ..
Thank you, I really appreciate the kind and encouraging words!
Andrew, we love you so much. We enjoy watching all the videos. Greetings to everyone from Antalya / Kalkan. 🌞🌞🌴🌴🌞🌞
I just finished watching the tribute to Levi.
Good to see him in this video.
Andrew is tenacious. He always finds a way to solve a problem or to get a project done. He fixes all of his own equipment, and of course, has built his 'Castle Camarata' over the past few years while continuing to do his excavating work around his community. His dog Levi, lived until about a week after this video was posted. He was 2 days short of his 15th birthday. The other dog, Cody, is only a year old.
I commented one other time on another older video which I found scrolling through youtube videos. I said then I was fascinated by his
down to earth personality and his true desire to work things out himself no matter how difficult things got, one after another. It made
me feel so at ease and calm. I am a fan. I am a 74 year old asian male and wish Andrew all the best that youtube can offer.
Andrew is genuinely just a good person, he honestly just thinks so differently from most UA-camrs. He’s not in it for money or fame, just filming his life and what he loves to do. I respect that a lot
Andrew is a really fascinating guy and a true hands-on artist. I've been following him since early in the castle build and have enjoyed every upload since.
I must also give credit to Brad for the making of this interview where you really opened up Andrew to speak his desires and thoughts about his life dreams. Very well done.
I have been waching for a long time when there was just two containers setting there . I like watching everything that Andrew does Jim
Brilliant! A thorough, sincere, and honoring video record of a true polymath who is unaware of his talent. His prowess is surpassed only by his humility and gentle spirit. He would fit perfectly here in Alabama. God Bless you B-Rad and Andrew. We can't wait to see what's next!
Andrew is a very genuine person. I think why is his channel does so well is because he does not really need UA-cam to keep doing what he enjoys and loves.
Great video it's nice too see Andrew and for him to talk about all his videos this guy is a LEGEND
Andrew has wisdom and clarity of purpose. He is an artist in the purest sense - uncompromising, unapologetic, continually evolving. Imagine if we all exercised that kind of freedom.
You did a great job on this. I'm a little envious you were able to spend time there talking to him. It was very interesting getting to hear a lot of what Andrew had to say and you asked a lot of things that I've wondered myself. I think one of the biggest things that makes him so likable is that he's not afraid to be himself. He does and says what he wants, and he clearly didn't let a lot of things bother him as comes across as a very unstressed person. He lives a true life of freedom, doesn't care much of materialistic things, has a lot of great ideas on how things should be built and work, and he's incredibly intelligent. He's a true jack of all trades. There's also something about how he puts his videos together. I never thought I'd spend over an hour watching a guy work on a piece of equipment and be thoroughly entertained. Plus, who doesn't like a guy who uses a chainsaw to install a radio in his truck? Lol. Thank you for doing this.
Andrew is so genuine and real. Andrew, don’t change anything. My Granddaughter (11yrs old), really enjoys watching what you are doing, and how you are doing it.
Andrew was the first channel I subscribed to on UA-cam. Actually got to meet him and mowed part of a field on his Ford Tractor. Great guy. Questions I would have asked:
1.) one video was filmed by another individual with Andrew just talking. How did he feel about that experience?
2.) Did he fire the female “employee” who assisted in the window and door installation on the upper sections of the container castle? Thanks for the great video!
I thought one lady was his Wife and the other is his younger Sister.
@@dansbrown1313 His sister is married and lives up in Vermont near Burlington.... big into skiing. Andrew up loaded a video of her wedding reception with Dad singing and playing guitar in a band he was in. Andrew is not married, had a girlfriend who helped him on some of his castle building videos.
@@CranialAccess He is sorta near Catskill NY. You can't really see his place from the road though :lol:. I've looked.
@@alb12345672 His Container Castle is near West Saugerties, I used to live down near him. You can actually see the container castle from google earth 🌍
@@CranialAccess So not visible from 32.
Andrew's...well, castle is one of the best shipping container desings I have seen. I too came across that channel by looking for shipping container houses.
That guy is living the dream...
Thank you for this video, we've watched Andrew for about the same amount of time as you. He is amazing.
I’ve been watching Andrew for a few years now . Amazing young man , and I love his dogs …..
He's like family.
That’s why I watch Andrews channel. He’s a real dude and isn’t all fake with catch baits and sponsors. Watch him so much in our house he’s like family. Including Levi (rest his soul) and Cody. Thanks for the video. Nice job interviewing AC.
That welded signature is sick! He should start selling those haha things would move like hotcakes
I said kind of the same thing on a different video. I said he should do shirts with his sayings like measure never drill 3 times, if your gonna jump don't jump where the crane is gonna end up, if you can survive a 3 wheeler you can survive anything, well looks like I'm getting some new parts after this... or one with a check list like wrench check, impact check touch check cut-off wheel. But anyway you understand what I was getting at, and I believe people would buy the stupid fast
This is the BEST Andrew Camerata video not done by Andrew himself. Glad you got to meet and spend time with him. Andrew is the best UA-camr
Gracias por el aporte y vídeo, excelente trabajo, cAMARATA MI UA-camR FAVORITO GRACIAS......
Gracias por mirando
One of the most hard working, genuine men on the planet
