Imagine looking out of the window and seeing a scared hamster cleaning your window
Lmao made my day thanks
could be worse, could be an orangutan
@@MegaTamer111 captain slow would be nice until you realize he’s spent 4 hours on your window so you just look at him like 👁👄👁
Don't be fooled, while the building might look impressive, Hammond is so small that the windows they are cleaning are in fact on a bungalow.
He's the Hamster
why did I read this with Clarkson's voice in my head
@@gregf5770 I'm not the only one who did this then 😂😂
@@gregf5770 Bloody hell! I didn't at first, but now that you mentioned it...
HAMMOND!
Good thing he's got a helmet on
Samarth Srivastava 😂😂😂😂
The helmet is conveniently shaped to contain his liquid remains if he fell.
Helmet isnt for a fall , its for drops & swings 😭
I would have prefered a parachute instead if i was in his position.
@panfriedd oh yes he will survive falling from that height
One of the toughest jobs in the world
Respect to the cleaning team
but somehow it is more luxurious than those who are digging bird poo for fertilizer in Peru.
Not the toughest job in the world I've been a abseiling window cleaner for 18 years it's easy
the toughest job is a politician, all that lying and money grabbing is so bad for the brain and the back lets not forget the fact not going to work everyday or sleep at work is mentally challenging
But Oprah said being a mom is the hardest job in the world...
i could never man i shit myself gettin on the roofs let alone that high
Hammond looks like a really low/short budget version of Tony Stark
Lol, yeah he does!
BTEC tony stark
He's the realest thing to Tony stark
Scrap Industries lmfaooo what on earth? 😂😂
But both are the nearly the same height
I’ve been doing this 8 years now. Best job I ever had. Keeps you fit, doesn’t feel like work and if you get bored just look down! We’re cool with people looking down, we say never look up. Because you’ll see a mistake that is invariably made whilst cleaning windows stacked up over 600feet high. Good to see hammond gave it a crack. Believe it or not I’ve never seen anyone freeze up or panic and I’ve worked with over a hundred people in it now. Could be lucky
That, is amazing. I've never heard this job put in such a positive light, but it actually makes a lot of sense if you think about it.
I’ve been with a few people who got paralyzed and couldn’t continue. A small percentage though.
how to apply
Probably cleaning Tom Cruise's Footsteps 😆
Wut
Haha😂
@@onscreen933 bro there is a movie where Tom cruise do some stunts to break into a room to catch some punks
@Ayham Ashraf
@@ayhamm777 mission impossible Ghost Protocol
Clarkson: Meanwhile, Hammond cleans the tallest building - in the world...
Perfect!😂
and my mind read it in Clarkson's voice XD
@LordGroyper You physically can't not.
🤣🤣
I know this comment is sarcastic but helmets are must in such job to protect them mainly from falling objects.
“It’s harder than it looks”
Nooooo, it looks as hard as it actually is.
James May needs to try this!
He would have a heart attack
My guess is James would rather massage jeremy’s sausage rather than cleaning those windows
Shit I would want clarkson to try it haha. Or is there a weight limit 🤣😂
He would faint 😵💫😵😑
When your life is literally on the ropes.
That "NO" at 0:42 came from the bottom of his soul 😂
"It's harder than it looks"
I most definitely never said that looks easy
Imagine cleaning skyscraper's glass and you see a plane heading towards you on the reflection of the glass
@@CreativeVibesYTx 11/10 grammar bud
@@CreativeVibesYTx are you trying to say 9/11 was good??
@@illuminosis6823 I am VERY sure, that is NOT the intention he's getting at here. XP
Sure, 9/11 was a terrible moment in human history, but much like with WW2, eventually it will be made fun of.
Some people just seem to like to start much earlier than others would like.
@@TheTrytix I can’t even see his comment anymore for some reason, so I don’t know what he said
@@illuminosis6823 Well, I can. Sooo... He said this: "Imagine cleaning skyscraper's glass and you see a plane heading towards you on the reflection of the glass"
Hammond: I could not do this for a job.
Him: Does it for his job anyway
CZcams: Did you click here because we recommend this to you?

Just going to say, visiting Dubai, more specifically the burj khalifa, is definitely one of those bucket list entries, just the fact that you can say “I’ve been inside the worlds tallest building” is an amazing brag, not just that the view from the highest the general public can go, makes all the other skyscrapers you see in Dubai, becomes dwarfs by comparison, it’s truly amazing
First thought, "Is The Hamster going to roll that building in a ditch ??!?"
I love this series, and I think Hammond gets better and better with time.
He clearly isn’t afraid of heights, he’s cleaning a window at 828m where I can’t even be half of that
Fuzzy VNM or even 1/100 of that lmao
There is no difference if its 800 m 400 or 50. if you Fall you're ging to die either way . so it could be 1000 m aswell
DrKampfpudding I once fell 2 feet and now I’m dead. Thank you for clarifying
DrKampfpudding You’re grammar hurts
@@fuzzymp Your* 😂😂😫
How you gonna try and act smart with your grammar comment and then come in with an error of your own?
imagine chilling in your living room and looking out your window and richard hammond is cleaning your window
"I don't want a bucket!"
"You're gonna clean glass!"
*_I DON'T WANT TO CLEAN GLASS, I JUST WANNA GET DOWN ALIVEEE_*
Respect for Richard doing this!
I just love when hamster gets scared 🤣🤣
On today's show "richard cleans a window of a small building, James organizes lingerie and I ride a bicycle"
respect for all who doing this hardest job
Massive respect to Richard Hammond here, massive!
I loved James May in Japan. Looking forward to this show!
You gotta be kidding me. I literally peed myself 😬😂
“Comfortable?” “NO” lmaooo
He's cleaning windows but is yelling "I don't want a bucket!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
So great man
What an awesome job these guys have
They do an amazing job. Amazing feat of human engineering.
It is a seriously long way down.
"I just wanna get down alive"🤣🤣🤣🤣
Shoutout to the cameraman. A real legend to get those angles and shots
Man I wouldn’t even go to the top of the building on the inside
Awesome Dear
Respect !! Hope they get paid big bucks
Well done Hamster, afraid but strong minded. Brave man! 🍻
Props to the camera guy...
Gotta love Rope Access Techs.
pov: your in an important business meeting, Richard hammond starts cleaning the window
I got damn near anxiety just watching this video, this looks terrifying!
Tom cruise be like: hold my cleaning bucket
I used to live in there and every time I would see these guys, I would always think to myself they have balls of steel.
Wow massive respect for those workers
They need our respect, because their employers does not have any respect for them.
Notice how he's got barrel knots on, that's a no no for a level 1! Haha
I will never again moan about my job. Ever.
Omg my knees are weak just watching this
This Is Madness!!
He’s not scared of heights. I can’t even stand on 6 story tall scaffolding without trembling. He’s all up there dangling from the burj Khalifa lol
Very hard working ❤
Hammond: I don't want a bucket I just want to get down!
cameraman carrying 40 lbs: Am I a joke to you?
Fair play to richard he has balls of steel even in top gear he done some crazy things
That looks terrifying!
That's gonna be a big hell hope from me mate
Very nice
Best thing to do when facing fears or when your nervous is exactly what he does here , talk
Talk and talk again non stop to distract you from the hell your going through😂😂
Wow! Richard, thats fantastically scary!
Good effort Richard, after 20 years of Industrial rope access in the oil and gas industry I would have loved to have done this, if only to have it on my C.V.
My respect to them❤
Beautiful city 😊😊😊😊👍
*slight gust of wind*
*SNAP*
Good on him!
hes gooooodddd
I got sweaty palms just watching this
Oh my God , crazy job...
I'm afraid of heights. Much respect
James and Jeremy should have been watching him on the balcony
Imma window cleaner and watching Richard clean is really funny
Even Watching it gets to my nerves instantly
THIS IS SO UNCOMFORTABLE TO WATCH
Hammond: I’m scared of heights
Also Hammond: I can fly a plane!
Why isn’t this on amazon or Netflix
I think it will be on amazon soon, I’m not sure
It is on Amazon now.
Sally Smith only if you pay extra
Billy P ffs, one of the reasons why I prefer Netflix cause you pay monthly then you can watch the films you choose where as amazon you have to pay monthly then pay again to watch some films or programs
Starts to go down after cleaning
Bird: Im going to end this man’s career.
Very difficult and hard work
How about the astronaut staying at the space station😂
My palms are already sweating
Id pass out 😂
Rajesh, you are gonna wreck the bucket Rajesh.
I dont want a bucket! Lol
The scariest experience.
He would be shitting on Windows below him 😂😂😂
yeah i can relate
i cant imagine the heat they are experiencing cleaning those windows. having lived in dubai for so long summers are all about making sure i stay inside the ac only
This job takes balls of steel.
I don't have a fear of heights but daaaaamn this is something else alright.
Been up there but on the observation deck and behind the glass, not out in front of it.
Ah so this is why we haven't had a gt episode
Love to try it....
Hopely they can let me do it..
The scariest monsters are the ones that lurk within our souls
And all I loved, I loved alone
You're awake
Edgy
Oh God Really Great...
Respect. Not many rich hamsters would dare to dangle on a rope like that.
Looks fun
: what's your profession?
: I clean windows.
: hmm.. Ok..🙄
: Those👆 Windows.
: Woooh... 😳😵🤯
I have conquered my fear of heights completely. It's my fear of falling that needs a lot of work.
The fall doesn't hurt but the stop does!
Don't forget to appreciate the cameraman!
As I've aged, I no longer have the nerve to go out on a limb or to climb significant heights. It seems too risky and I love life.
@@Nhzharuthopar A couple years ago I had occasion to remove something from the roof of house. I didn't even have the nerve to get off the ladder. My brave wife then climbed the ladder and onto thevroof!
Hammond I know you are a TV star but what on God's Earth made you do this??? I can not unsee it.
The film crew 😎
For all of us that do this every day......hold my squeegee.
