• One man fridge load in... The reverse. How a 59 year old man loads a fridge by himself. You don't need any help on these. This is how the Egyptians did it during the pyramid scheme days.
A little technique goes a long way. Basically, one man can put it back in just the opposite way. Get the side legs on the tailgate and just push up. It will tip up pretty easy. Be in okay shape though.
Now I'm no longer loading fridges, but having the time of my life, and aren't we all, one way or another. After a broken arm, with 2 cancer scares and a botched biopsy, I'm back, only to find this covid challenge. Fortunately, I live in the rural mountains, not not of Tennessee, but California, and the only difference is the people, and I suggest we need people from Tennessee to move here please! HELP
I'm about making hard things seem more simple. Tricks of the Trade if you will. I'm an immature old man trying to act like a young man still, without breaking me. Right now, I lucked out and was able to purchase a ranch, thanks to all my clients and trusted people around me. This ranch has a lake and a pond stocked with fish, as well as meadows for farming and timber for milling. California hillbilly's are getting together with me, and we are opening a lumber mill to teach people to self sustain in hard times.
If one man can load a fridge, no complicated task, once you see it, you can do anything, and my followers will see this, and age has no limit!

I've purchased heavy equipment and am developing survival ranches and peoples property to prepare for the worst should it happen, but we're expecting the best! Now we and nature are forced back face to face perhaps. We can do this! I'll show you how if your discipline was focused elsewhere dependent upon a normal economy. - Jak na to + styl
I can't believe it's going on 5 years since this video. I just had a surgery for cancer, I hope they got it all, but I'll be back to heavy lifting using the ole noggin of course. I had one video go 5.5 million views in 4 months. guess I haven't mastered the algorithm, cause it ignores me lately.
Hope you're doing well! I went thru cancer treatment & surgeries myself from late-2014 to end of 2015. Surgical Oncologists do their best to get clean margins (i.e. removing a specified amount of healthy tissue surrounding tumor to ensure microscopic abnormal cells are removed), and then a pathologist looks thru the tumor block of tissue under a microscope to determine whether or not all of it was removed. They also do testing to learn more about the cancer cells at that point than what was able to be gathered during biopsy. Wishing you good health and a speedy recovery.
Cancer needs a cure already! I got diagnosed with a more advanced cancer at only 27, but not stage IV, so I became "no cancer detected" once I went thru neo-adjuvant chemo/immunotherapy (pre-surgery to shrink tumor & nodules) & then 1 big surgery, followed by 2 more (not including all the small procedures done awake or under anesthesia). For anyone between stages 1B to 3C, who achieves "no cancer detected," the 5 and 10 year anniversaries are supposed to big landmarks that enable patients to do less frequent screening based on the assumption it's much less likely to come back after these periods. However, for those of us who had to undergo chemo and lots of surgery, we never really sleep again because the cancer coming back is a constant fear.
Catching it when it's just surgery (i.e. non-invasive cancer), clean margins can be achieved, and it hasn't spread to any lymph nodes, is really the best outcome. Like all the times I've had precancerous melanoma removed - never came back because they caught it early and got really good margins. That pathology report is what's most important after surgery.
@@Living_Dead_Girrl I get the name. I've dodged a bullet again. Cancer brings you into view of the abyss that we all know is there, and if we are lucky enough, we don't have to look in prior to entry. I got for my first post 90 day blood test. It was non detectable 90 days after surgery. While I'm not depressed, or to anxious, my outlook on the future is guarded. I have so much stuff to do. I'm 64, but still doing the same stuff at 44, even 24. It takes you all your life of struggling with nothing feast or famine, and finally you seem to have control over some earth and autonomy, but the end is near regardless of this cancer. I could have 20 years, but I don't know. I should be hitting the ground running, but I'm not, unless I'm called on to do that. It is winter, snow, cold, mud, so I can't do my normal construction, so maybe I'm just fine.
I feel for you having to start this at 27. You must be battle tough, and I wish there was something to stop all this you have had to endure.
I'm usually gung ho about getting stuff done, but I'm having a hard time picking up slack I've seen since the surgery. I know recuperating created a bad habit I have to break. I was working out, then I'd get minor knee injury, then hip, all better now, but I stopped working out, and I just watch stuff on the web. I do a little content, make some goals that I procrastinate. I got a foundation to build for a neighbor, we suffered the caldor fire, and this showed us that cancer is mimicking how our government operates. That's another story.
Thanks for sharing, it's something you just can't talk about to anyone.
@@homesculptor Glad you get my username. Most people think I’m just morbid for no reason lol. It’s not only a good song, but demonstrates how cancer’s made me feel like the living dead. It’s hard to grieve a future that might never be. Devastatingly true how one finds themselves fighting their whole life to finally get some financial stability, or even on the precipice of succeeding in their career, etc - then cancer interrupts everything. Life on hold, watching life pass by; but also realizing all those things that occupied your mind & time were for nothing - because when you’re staring death in the eyes, the last thing you’re thinking is “I’m so glad I stressed about eating healthy & organic, and working out.” I mean, my first thought after diagnosis was, “why did I turn down all those Sprinkles cupcakes at work? I should’ve just enjoyed my life. But no. I wasted it stressing about what I eat, when I got cancer despite doing absolutely everything right.”
When you get cancer young, there’s a lot of victim-blaming done by society. Everyone, including medical professionals on all levels of my endless appointments, asked me the same exact questions… trying to poke and prod and find something I must’ve done to “give myself cancer” so young. Or their pseudoscientific blame directed at “genetics.” Cancer isn’t genetic, it’s caused by exposure carcinogens. Many carcinogens found in chemicals that’ve been banned for half a century still show-up in tissue, because they can be transmitted to the fetus. Then there’s the whole living in the same environment as family members who’ve had cancer that can be mistaken for “genetics.” I find the whole cancer genetic testing to be a scientifized way of victim-blaming, while also enabling racist theories into the medical world. Also a great way to lose health insurance for ever if the ACA’s ever overturned, because having a “gene mutation” is 100% considered a “pre-existing condition.” So is cancer despite the obvious irony.
What I’ve found hardest about getting cancer young, besides the victim-blaming, and coming very close to not catching it before it became state IV or killed me because doctors were extra-dismissive about my medical complaints and narrowly didn’t order any imaging despite presenting with obvious visible cancer… had I been old enough for a doctor to “believe” people can get cancer young - was how my own friends and other people have treated me ever since. I’m seen as a ticking time bomb. A bad bet. Someone whose just gonna die soon anyways. Well, absolutely anyone can die at any time! But that doesn’t prevent them from getting a job, or make people afraid of getting too close to them. I “survived” cancer, as they say, but when I came out on the other end, absolutely no one would hire me. My employment gap while getting treatment was a big red flag, and I learned after witnessing employment discrimination of my fellow cancer victims (as I like to call it) that I can never ever tell a potential employer or employer that I’ve had cancer. Thus, had to find a way to explain away my employment gap.
I had no choice but to try to start my own side hustle, my own business. Had to completely reinvent myself, taught myself how to design and make things in an art area I’d never done before, how to market, source, sell, and ship my work - and somehow turn a profit (no matter how small) off each sale until I could build trust and a good reputation with buyers. Starting a business, even if it’s just run out of your own home with cheap materials and your own labor, is an investment. It certainly wasn’t supposed to be forever or replace my career, but right when I started succeeding at that, COVID hit, and I’ve just been too sick to keep up with it… plus USPS was dismantled, making it impossible to do my job which relies 100% on shipping to customers within a tiny window of time.
Anyways, it’s best to try to not be hard on yourself. It takes time, and recovery is out of our control - just like life itself. Muscles atrophy, and the only way to bounce back from that is Physical Therapy, where they know exactly how to help you rebuild strength and muscle without injuring yourself, causing setbacks or even damage that can lead to chronic pain. I needed PT just to be able to use my left arm again after aggressive surgery and removal of lymph nodes. Gotta be kind to yourself. Patient. Listen to your body. When it limits you, it’s trying to warn you so you don’t hurt yourself, or so you’re forced to rest so your immune system has the energy it needs to fight off whatever’s going on - or so you seek medical attention and catch that diagnosis while it’s still curable. It’s also invaluable to try out group therapy at the cancer center, or offered by a cancer assistance program, etc. No one will understand your unique struggles like someone else whose living it. Doesn’t matter whether you’re in active treatment or not, nor what stage your cancer’s in, or if you’re no cancer detected - it’s for all people. I’ve met people who never told their family because they didn’t want to worry them, and ended up pushing them away while trying to do cancer treatment in secret. Group was the only outlet they had to tell another person, “I have cancer.” Unfortunately, males are statistically less likely to seek out cancer programs & group therapy, but the ones that do are very much appreciated by everyone else. There was also a cancer exercise program I got to do twice, that helped be safely rebuild muscle, balance, strength, motor skills, etc and then some. I actually came out fitter because of that incredible free program offered by my cancer center. I was always the youngest person in every room - whether the waiting room or group therapy or cancer events - all of it… but it’s been devastating to see just in 2016 alone, two male friends in their twenties diagnosed with cancer.
Cancer’s hitting my generation incredibly young for some reason, and it interferes with our ability to start our own families and obtain enough work to not be on the street. One of my friends was actually homeless for a year during COVID despite having incurable cancer…. Or I should say, because of it. That’s not the way to treat the sick. Our society needs to prioritize healthcare above absolutely everything else. Everyone will get sick, it’s just a matter of when. Instead of blaming the sick, they should be compassionate, understanding this could very well be them when they least expect it.
I hope you consider being a little gentler on yourself, ignoring the internal pressure to push past new & frustrating, but temporary, physical limitations downtime from surgery causes. It’s critical to heal before diving right back into your activities, so you can return to your full health like cancer never happened. Again, Physical Therapy is key to get back to normal at quickly as possible, without risking permanent injury. I know not everyone can afford it, but if you have enough health insurance coverage, it is 100% covered. Ever since I got diagnosed, I keep a high level of insurance on a PPO, because it’s cheaper than the out-of-pocket cost on a cheaper plan, and a PPO ensures you can see absolutely any specialist needed to save your life, or preserve your quality of life, should the need arise. I actually had the worst health insurance plan when I was diagnosed, but I was lucky it was end of year and I was able to switch plans a month after chemo began… and before all my surgeries. Before that, the stress from medical bill collectors alone was set to kill me.
Anyways, glad I stumbled upon your video, and saw your post in the comments. The algorithm, at least on this video, seems to be favoring you decently, since it was ranked relatively high in search (I always skip over the corporate “How-to” vids that usually get bumped to the top).
You might want to pin your comment so your viewers can see it. I had to scroll pretty far down in the comments to actually come across it.
@@Living_Dead_Girrl Pinned! I have VA medical, and they farm me out to private medicine. I'm so p'od more about how our country is so divided, and there are no means to really redress any wrongs, as the profit mode for treatment has spiraled out of control. I'm still scratching my head about that Dr. in Texas curing uncurbable cancer, and the state and feds trying to prosecute this guy over and over.
We just went through the Caldor fire, a cancer of the forest. Yet the USFS obstructed firefighters from fighting them because it was USFS jurisdiction, and they believe that fire is good for the forest, and it may be, but NOT WHEN IT IS NEXT TO A TOWN!!!! They repeated this inaction and was called to stop it, but I don't know, we'll see next year.
But FEMA came in and destroyed what was left on our properties, and the stole about $400,000 of trees I could have milled and sold. I used to be proud to be an American. Now I realize we are just financial fodder for public officials who harvest from us and live pretty good lives.
Everything bad happening to us at one time. However, I've always been able to overcome travesty and do better. I just imagine what it could be like if people that matter had a conscience.
@@Living_Dead_Girrl Yeah, I got monetized on another video that did about 5.5 million views in 3 months. I never took it serious, but they keep sending a bit of cash for my postings. At the time of the fridge unload video, I had just purchased a local hometown sears store, right before sears announced business troubles. I got out just in the nick of time.
my favorite part is how humble he is about his achievement
Anyone else's palms sweating after watching this? Nicely done!
Thanks! Glad you stopped by! Checked out your page. Good stuff!
You are great man. A double door refrigerator...not easy to load or unload , and you did it. Thanks for the helpful video. Your friend from Puerto Rico, Edwin Oliveras
Thanks 👍Hey Friend! I been to Puerto Rico! I loved it. I have a gold chain on my neck I bought from one of the stores there. I think the whole street had nothing but gold store there! Keep in touch
OUTSTANDING SIR THANK YOU!
Sure any time, glad you liked it.
Standing ovation from back hills of Oklahoma to you 👏
I love them okies from Muskogee!!!! Specially ones that ride big bikes! Spent some time at Altus! Oklahoma people are salt of the earth!!! Nice to meet you!
Thanks! I'm 59 and I need to do this today. I feel more confident now. :-)
Just hook that leg on the tail gate with your shoulder and cart. Once you feel it is stable, let the cart fall, and push like hell hands apart to control the weight, and it'll go right up. A spotter on the first few tries is a good idea!
Well done. Nice work!
Thanks a lot! Now, I'm 65, but still doing a lot of heavy work. I'm publishing a video of shed I just built where I milled all the lumber for it from trees on my property. I set a huge beam 13' in the air, and built it by myself. Still kicking butt and taking names! lol
Nice job!!!
My and my neighbor almost broke our back the other day doing it for the first time.
Oh no!
Damn that's impressive.
This video gave me anxiety but well done 👏 👏 👏
Very clean
Why thank you!
nice job Pat!
Thanks Adrian
You are the man!
Still got it!!!
This is impressive!!!
It's all leverage! But it does look like it should be a bit difficult. Thanks, and be safe my friend! Luv the tux. It's been a while since I had mine on!
Excellent.
Many thanks!
Awesome! Stay healthy.
You bet! I'm 62 now and working out, developing land, have the time of my life! Thanks for commenting!
Awesome job!
Well thank you!
Knowledge is power 👏👏👏👏
Great job, the only thing is leave the hand truck out of the way until you're ready to lower it, no need to keep walking extra steps around it. 👍
Thanks for the tips!
Awesome! SCARY!! 👍
Glad you enjoyed it. I owned a Sears Store, and during the time Amazon came out, I couldn't afford employees, so I had to do he heavy lifting! You learn the tricks
After watching your video, I had the confidence to try it. It worked great, but it was too scary for me to ever try it again!
I'm so glad!
Well done Sir
Hey thanks comrade
That was excellent!
Cheers Sammie, I'm 64 now, and I think I could still pull it off!
Well done
Yeah thanks. Not bad for 60 year old.
Thank you for this video I was literally racking my brain on how to unload it without tearing it up
Yeah, I bought a Sears HomeTown Store and had to learn quick. I've done hundreds of these. I no longer have the store, but got some great experience, and really enjoyed owning the Craftsman Tool center it had!!!
Nice job
Thank you! Cheers!
Bravo
Awesome thanks!
No problem!
That was amazing.
I love the bows. You earned them. 🎉
Yay! Thank you!
Thank you for your service Mr. Hamer. My husband was a Vietnam Vet. Died in 92 from Agent Orange. Forever my hero. Can a 87lb senior woman handle the weight coming off the truck onto the dolly. I'm tough, work a farm by myself, but not sure of the force coming off. My body weight is a negative
I'm a bit older than you ;)
We have ranch, yes, I'm sure you can do it, but please do not without assistance. I say this because I no longer have to do it. I'm 64 today, still tough as nails. I just felled all these trees and fell down and still got up unhurt, here is the clip. czcams.com/video/rYYZkyYzRyM/video.html
Now, I personally never lift anything heavy without my Escalera Stair Master, or my excavator, or my tractor loader. I could, but it only takes these old bones one time to seriously injure me. I remember grandpa, when he'd unload the truck. We'd say, "let me do it for you. . ." he'd say heck not get of my way you wipper snapper, and then one day he crushed a vertebrae.
I knew, as a chip off the old block, I was susceptible more to his stubbornness, and so I invested in things to help me pick up heavy loads, so I would not be sidelined from injury. It has paid off.
My neighbor moved, and asked me for one bit of help. To move a king mattress. The next day I was injured a bit and felt sciatica pain, it wasn't real bad. When that happens, so far so good, I sleep with my but on a pillow, and it seems to relieve the injury after a few days.
I'll not help people lift anymore. I need to be in shape, so I'm not gambling on my strength. I know I am a bit less structural, even though it doesn't feel that way.
Yeah, we went from vietnam insanity to today!!! I volunteered in 75, and the war ended by the time I went to boot camp. But I volunteered. I received the GI bill and got two free college degrees, one magna cum laude. Thanks GI bill!
The force coming off is great. If you see in the video I put my shoulder very hard into it. Now understand. I owned the Sears Store and would move freezers, fridges, washer and dryer every day. I was tougher then and did that every day. So, get some help please. What part of the globe are you located?
Smooth like butter
Indeed
well done sir
thank you Mr. Telco! I'm still doing that crazy stuff at 64, in spite of cancer, which I'm clear at the moment.
Sir, you are enterprise!
Thanks so much! You have a great day!
Today I've learned something new!
Awesome Mr. Newman!
Sweet video dude!
Thanks
Congratulations 👏👏👏👏👏🇧🇷
Thanks for the kind response!
The bow at the end. Thankyou Thankyou. Hahaha.
Cheers bud. I'm gonna go do this now
Have fun! Smoke and mirrors in the leverage. Let me know how it went. Putting it in is as simple czcams.com/video/lbVN-ssRGqU/video.html
Amazing
It's a simple technique. But you got to have some shoulder
Well deserved bows young man, I am applauding, actually I am standing on my feet applauding. Thank for such an inspiring post!
Anytime! Trying to figure out what to do at 62, hey maybe I'm a poet and don't know it!
Wow you made my day. Thanks
Heck yeah!
Darn tootin!!!
My Man
I love that frig
It was a new one that couldn't be fixed as I recall. I used to own our local Sears Hometown store.
My hands were sweaty watching this......not sure I'd try this myself
It's sort of using leverage. If you did it with spotters at first, which I'd recommend, and you try it a dozen times. You'd see that the physics is always the same, as long as you don't make any changes and move it to the tipping point. Then of course, you must be just a bit strong to let is slide off slowly using the friction at the base, along with your directing the forces. Once you do it a few times, it's a piece of cake. Hey Now, thanks for watching! I appreciate that.
Nice
Thanks. Anybody can do it once they learn the leveraging tricks.
Well done, very nice.
What kind of appliance dolly is that?
Did you have something like an Escalera for moving up and down stairs?
Ahh talking the lingo! So cool! That dolly is the frame for an Escalera. I still have that with the Escalera. At that time, I had the Escalera on order. I bought it with the forklift attachment. That think is so cool! I just love it!!!! Yes, I can move 1500 lbs up stairs no problem. You have to be careful at first. It can toss you over the bars if you let the center of gravity go to forward. It happened once. I spun it as I went down, and low and behold the wall oven was packed so well nothing happened to it.
Damnit! That was good!
Hey thanks!
I guess I'll change MY diaper now😲
Oh no! Sorry about that!
Respect
Thanks
With a cover like that I can only assume you’re a navy vet, and it makes sense if you are. So used to doing all of this in the Ship
Ahoy shipmate! Yeah US Navy, we did a lot of carrying stuff around. I owned a local Hometown Sears store. I ended up buying an Escalera StairCat, which made it real easy. When I got rid of the store, I kept the staircat. I love that thing. I was on the USS Kawishiwi AO 146. I was a fresh air snipe.
That overpowered dolly did half the work...all I got is a regular harbor freight dolly
I didn't used to have that, and I used a cheap one with the same results. As long as the bottom touches the tailgate, you have to lift, and it will work. The dolly just holds it, and cannot put it in the truck you have to. There is no power in the dolly
@@homesculptor Thank you good sir
Wow!
Leverage and physics
Salute 💪
yup yup yup!
I loved the bow. God job! Is there a video of you loading it up to the truck?
You know it buddy! czcams.com/video/lbVN-ssRGqU/video.html. I did the thumbs up though on that one! Yeah, the bow was a show of my appreciation.
Am in bed right cant move broke my back attempting this with wrong dolly
Yeah, I owned a Sears Hometown store and did this daily. Sorry to hear that. I bought the escalera stairmaster, unloaded the Sears store, but kept the Escalera. I remember grandpa, "get out of my way, I can get it, and then he screwed his back up and it was all over. Now I use an excavator I bought, and I'm just now ordering a large Tractor. I'm a building contractor, but can make nice money sitting in a tractor playing in the dirt. dirtsculptorcom on gmail.
This dude took that Dolly's spotlight.
That Dolly's been under the house for several years. It's lost without me.
That was smooth😂
Thanks, I moved a lot of those when I owned the Sears Hometown store.

I'm trying to find a similar video for 48-year-old man. I guess I'll keep searching.
I'd hope a 48 year old can do it!!!
@@homesculptor I couldn't find a video for my age group, so without the extra 11 years of experience, I decided not to risk it. Instead, I drove my pickup truck through the wall and left both the truck and the fridge in the kitchen. On the plus side, it's like a tailgate party at every meal!

@@KC-wf7qt Bless you my friend. Where are you from?
@@homesculptor California here, much love from the west coast line
Me too, Northern Cal, in Caldor burn scar. :(
Great technique and balance. I do this all the time with smaller appliances but struggle to achieve the right balance when it's a refrigerator. You did great keeping the tip in to the dolly at the right angle and speed to still have the fridge catch balanced in the middle. You were 59 when you filmed this?
Yes. I used to own a Sears Hometown Store and did this every day. I'm 62 now, and Ranching and doing excavation work, and getting ready to start a sawmill business with a friend. I'm developing 31 acres with two huge ponds on it into a paradise to retire on.
@@homesculptor bravo! That was impressive. Pat, if you HAD to buy a refrigerator now, what brands and type would you buy? What features/ technical specs would you stay way from? I’m asking because my very reliable French door kenmore elite 596.76602601 won’t come to reg. temps after a 2 day defrost. Stays at 24 F/ 44-46 F. I am preparing my troubleshooting now and if that fails, I’ll need another.
@@kimariokiji You know, nowadays, its a crap shoot with these. Just get the big warranty, or you'll be sorry. I had my side by side I bought in 2007, and old school was pretty reliable. I was in the Caldor fire, and evacuated for a month. the food went bad due to power outage, and it ruined it. I missed that old friend. It was a kenmore. the ones with all the electronics always seem to have problems Just get any nice name brand, but get the warranty.

Wow
Oh, it was nothing!!! lol
Wow. Can you send this guy over I need some help with my fridge!!!!!
On my way!!!!
I wish
lay the fridge on its back. You can plug them straight in. Been laying them on their backs for 20 years atleast now.
Probably so, but the initial start my be a bit dry. Could do some damage, but probably not likely or enough to notice. With a 2000 fridge, I tend to just do it vertical because most people have heard the contrary to your statement, and teaching people contrary things to tradition can tilt those that are hypersensitive order. lol. You know, the client that is looking over your shoulder at every minute, looking for any excuse to fault you. They are not the rule, but I run into them now and then.
clap calp calp awesome!
Oh thank you so kindly!
What brand dolly is that with two sets of wheels
It's a very clever think made by a company called escalara. This is a stripped down frame and wheels. You can make it into a stair climber and forklift. I have one of those also. But this one I used before I bought the upgraded version. I have both today, and still use them frequently.
Very impressive 🤣
Cheers! almost 5 years later, I'm still tough as nails.
I hope that technique works for me. Three days from now I ( 68yr old woman) will be doing the same thing.
Just a few pointers if I may? It's all smoke and mirrors. You let the equipment and physics work for you. The Ancient Egyptions could do it, so can we!!! On the put in part, I just test it first. Then when I'm confident, I just hustle to it, and lift at the highest point of balance. Not stopping until the thing is up and not tipping over 0.0 lol. On the take off part, you let the physics and gravity work after you find the tipping point. shoulder into it, hands up at ear height or thereaobuts spread a foot apart or more and catch it with your shoulder hips and arm strength. Eventually it will hit the ground, and it will be all over! Good luck! Let me know how it goes. Do a vid, and I'll publish for you and link you.
@@homesculptor I believe in mechanical advantage..I use you all the time out on the ranch. But still need a few tools to implement that. Wish I could come up with a gin pole. That would help do this and other things
@@CottonWoodBlues I don't know how far you are from where I live in Sierra Nevada Mountains, but you are my 257 commenter, and I can't believe it, but you won a gin pole set of posts! What a coincidence. I have a saw mill and a bunch of timber so, give me the diminsion, I'll mill them for you and you can have them free!!!! Hopefully your not to far!
I use a thing called an escalera to do my lifting for me. Also I have heavy equipment. As older youtuber I have to be careful. I'm not a spring chicken anymore, and although that was a well kept secret till now, these mechanical things are our lifesaver!!!
@@homesculptor I am researching all the options. I have "junk' all over my 10 acres and its amazing when I need something, I manage to find it if I need it. I needed an electrical box and just went walking in my 10 acres and there it was buried in the same..so many treasures yet to be discovered. I have manage to collect at least 20 or more metal poles aka conduit just walking around the desert. And enough would to build a barn. Got to be something out there for a gin pole..really trying to decide if I want something to put in the truck or more portable..thats the issue I have to decide on
👍
Thumbs up to you too.
@@homesculptor I tried your technique but with a regular dolly and the fridge hit the ground pretty hard as it slid off the tailgate.
@@kanisohana yeah, you got to make sure the legs are hooked. I never tried it alone when I first started doing it. Once you get the mechanics and physics down, which can be an artform, I'm a professional builder, so I understand weak points. But, yeah, you should never try this alone the first time.
Wow it 383 pound French refrigerator
I used to own the local small town Sears. Had to do that almost daily.
Este wey tiene la panza de Amado Tomillo 😂😂😂
keeps me humble
Tomfoolery!!!! I say
Tomfoolery!!!!
Exactly!!!!!!
What hand truck is that?
It's a bare bones Escalera without the lift capacity.
Gold star
At 63, I can still pull that off.
It's my turn this Sunday. Wish me luck 🤞
@@nefflz Just make sure those tippy toes are hooked with leverage and once you're sure, a swift move up, and then down is easy, just keep your shoulder ready
U DA MAN!
Ha! Thanks Scott! Have a great day
Where did get this dolly?
I bought the Escalera Stair Cat, but had this one that is without the lift motors.
Wow 20k views today! I think this video is going, in the least a sneeze or maybe just a runny nose, or slight tickle in the throat. I hope I get the infection needed. Or is that affection.
Wow 👏 👏 👏
😊 You learn the tricks. As a Sears Hometown Store owner, it got pretty easy.
This video actually helped me unload a fridge and I really appreciate you making this video 🔥🔥
@@alow2323 Pretty cool technique when I found it! It's very safe and the leverage makes it lighter feeling. I hope you subscribe. My channel is growing leaps and bounds, so I'm stepping it up a bit!!! :)
@@homesculptor I definitely will sir 👌👍
@@alow2323 Thanks!
Why not use a ramp and then roll the dolly backwards down it vs potentially scratching the bed hatch? Does that not work? Great video good sir
It would be dangerous to use a ramp. The heavy object would have no safety brakes. This way, the object is secure at the bottom, and mechanical failure and physics stored energy forces is stabilized. This is a fulcrum method, and is very ancient safe reliable way for economizing energy and labor and safety.
Oh, and this is a work truck. The bed hatch scratches are a by product and deductible on income tax section 179 IRS code.
@@homesculptor thanks for that. I guess I'm trying to make both ways work with less overall work. Plus personally I got a nice rig don't wanna mess her up too much. I wonder if I can make some sort of braking mechanism to make it easier without the risk of losing control to gravity. Really appreciate your effort for this one as it shows this can be done by yourself if needed
@@jahcreator I have an escalera stair cat 🐈. I'll do a video on it. I used to own a sears store and moved lots of appliances
@@homesculptor I'll look forward to that one. Moving refrigerators is such a pain haha
If this all went wrong, we wouldn't have seen it, could have turn tragic real quick.
I owned the local sears store in my town. I did this several times per day, never lost a fridge once. i"m 65 now, and can still do in no problem.
As for avoiding tragedies, my sawstop saved my finger video went 5.5 million views in a few months.
Cool beans,
The song "living on a prayer" clicked.😁
Amen! That I do! Was dropped on my head early on, but seem to have found a few niches. @@jjcjr009
bon Jovi?@@jjcjr009
Which dolly is this?
It is an escalera hand truck. It can be converted to the stair master. It's basically just the frame for the stair master, which I also have, and that machine is really cool.
What an Og Very risky lol
Yeah, it's the way I roll, even at this age! lol. Thanks
Dam youngster u got some guns
I eats my spinach!
@@homesculptor Popeye;
@@ggarcia3237 Kyuk kyuk kyuk! Hey, you look like Bluto!
Fucking legend
Did it like a Pro
Well, I owned the local sears store, so, I may have been a pro.
Not the men in the comments trying to mansplain to you after you already did it.
I know! Patronizing Pat! What a load of rubbish I say!!!! Thanks for pointing that out!
Easy way than that .😂😂😂😂
6 to one, 1/2 a dozen to another, but for sure!!!!
Don't mind the haters that was excellent. Dolly did all the work,? Yeah it's why we have them smh 🤣.
It's all leverage. Getting in is exactly backwards. It's a nice bench press to get it up, but the angle of the dangle takes some of the weight off at the fulcrum point.
Where do I get that dolly?!!
I think escalera.com maybe. I ended up buying the stair cat with the fork lift attachment. Actually, I got mine from a guy back east handtruckstogo I think it was. He's a good guy. Tell em pat hamer sent ya
Thank you Pat!
@@brandonfrentrup NP Brandon! Let me know what you get!
If we're being historically accurate here, slaves built the pyramids, and no, the Egyptians did not care one bit if they got crushed beneath the mud brick.
For anyone whose confused: read the vid description...
Was trying to find this thread to see what it was about, but can't. Like this so I can see it.
bow much deserved
Cheers, your too kind!
