Back in 2007 when I first made the Dragster Backhoe video, youtube had a file size limit of 100mb and no HD. To celebrate the 4th anniversary of the clip, I decided to recapture it from the original HD source and upload the new and improved version. I put a watermark on this time though due to other people constantly stealing it and uploading it as their own. Make your own videos people. Don't steal from other youtubers.

Anyway, this is still the same run by the JCB Dragster Backhoe at the Rockey Mountain Nationals 2007, in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada (yes, Canada) as the original clip. It's also not some redneck with too much money to burn. It's a promotional vehicle built and operated by JCB Equipment.

  • FALSE HIGH DEF IS WHAT THAT IS

  • @joshfroh, no it's not. It was shot and uploaded in 1080. What youtube does after that is beyond my control.

  • @PoBoyX

    oh.. did you use any type of program for editing? like anything? that could also be the cause

  • @joshfroh, yeah, I used Adobe Premiere and exported it in 1080p. The original footage from my camera is 1080i so I don't know if that has anything to do with it. The exported file that I uploaded looks great when played on my computer. It's only when viewed on the 1080p setting in youtube that it gets all jagged.

  • @szabopetya1, BIG and POWERFUL. That's all I know about it.

  • @sturmtiger305mm, and I also purposefully made the watermark unobtrusive so as to try to not take away from the viewing experience as much as possible. If someone wants to use my video for something other than reposting as their own footage, all they need to do is ask permission and I would gladly supply a version that does not have the watermark.

  • well usually a tractor like that only has like 100 or so horsepower so... lol

  • awsommmmm

  • @TomteDJ, yeah, I'm not sure why youtube did that. The original uploaded file was 1080p and looked nice and clear like it does on the 720 version. Youtube made the 1080p version with jagged lines. Go figure.

  • Why don't they scoop dirt moving that fast? Would get the holes a lot faster done but workers are slackers...
