Thanks for the heads up. One never realizes what goes on behind or under the locks. It looked very dangerous down there if any of the pipes spring a bigger leak!

I watched it, too. I could just imagine Mike slipping and sliding down that spillway or whatever you want to call it. Thanks Bright Eyes. I really enjoyed it but it made me feel really cold. I'm cold enough here and now.

Very intersting indeed!
Enjoyed seeing what was under the locks and especially liked the ice drill incident and the camera man not being prepared for our kind of weather! laugh

As good as Mike Rowe is in front of the camera, that is how good his crew is behind the cameras.. And Rowe is very, very good!

Regular stories are tough to shoot and tell on television but Dirty Jobs does stories that are almost impossible to shoot sometimes..

The tight quarters that they have to shoot stories like the Locks story are really difficult, they must go through a lot of equipment over the years, also.


Onward to The Land of the Midnight Sun!
