Yes, I watched it too. A 21 year old is the best in the biz? Me and the boy got a kick out of it though. Fun to watch obstacle type stuff with machines.

I'd be more impressed if they could do 500 foot of 42 inch storm sewer a day.

if they such hot shots, I want to see wheelies on the rear tires of the cat loader

pick up an egg without a spoon and no dirt, put the egg in the bed of an empty dump truck with out breaking it.

those are the types of equipment drivers( no way shape or form of operator) that put companies out of business, and keep mechanic busy.

I watched just one episode, no need to see any more.

I couldn't believe that he was acting like that on a skidsteer...beside a road...with traffic going by. I feel relatively confident in saying that this dude is going to cause some serious damage to other people and/or their property in the near future.

Some of the equipment has the name "Johnson" on it, this and his attitude makes me think this is probably his daddy's company and he gets to do whatever he wants. Including acting like an idiot.

Well I all most thought it was the Company I used to work for.They had some clowns like him.The web page they have all the employees are listed as foreman .That is so they look good to pipeline and other contractors.
