I love the music - makes the video come alive with excitement - highlighting the dangerous working conditions in an extremely inhospitable environment. Yeah baby!

personall, all that money could have been spent on fission power plants or further advancement of fusion technology so we can finally start getting a large one up and running.

but if people want to waste money, so be it.

@SuperDickweed An idiot supports wasting tax payers money on Windfarms which do nothing more than drive up electricity prices leaving more pensioners in fuel poverty.

@Theaverable You probably can't help being an idiot.

@Theaverable Wow... Glad that's just your uninformed opinion and not an actual fact... Isn't it embarrassing to say something so stupid in front of so many people that realize you're wrong? I don't think I could take it...

Nice vid! Fascinating work which you have to have some degree vocation :).

[Theaverable]

Windfarms are such a f***ing waste of money.

@yamahonkawazuki - nice... or bmducatriumph? :-) Yes, there are a lot of questions we'll need answers to but we must begin to seek those answers... not just ignore the questions because we're indifferent to the consequences if we don't. Just think... what would we ever do without plastic bags and polyester shirts?

just sayin' is all.
