Wow, never seen rod wrenches move that slow. And why does he put the wrenches down? Are they too heavy for him? These guys wouldn't last a day in the Alberta oil patch. Slow and lazy.

I use to work in West Texas with a three man crew back in the 90's and we pulled rods twice as fast.
These guys are milking it!

Curious ( I know nothing about this line of work), what happens if the rods fall back down the hole? Does that ever happen? Thanks

That would be very bad, but it does happen. They would fall back to the seat nipple like a rocket depending on how far they have to fall. Could part the tubing too.

didn't know rods could be pulled that slow. I've seen crews pull rods easily twice as fast in Canada, at -30.

Hope they don't skip over any pitted rods.

If I had to guess, it would be easier to work in the cold than the heat. The coldest I have seen it around here is 8*F.
