3quartertime Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Imagine how hard those workers days were. It had to be absolutely freezing. Can't imagine the clothes they wore worked like the modern stuff we have now. The days were probably long and they probably earned like a buck! The part where the guys are pushing the chunks of ice around in the hole they cut looks way too dangerous! Fall in and your toast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlmiller1 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Here is another cool video of old stuff. Not quite as old as the ice video but close. It is a little more technologically advanced, though. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=c8c_1262588210 It looks like a great idea to me. Guess it didn't catch on or something.

The part where the guys are pushing the chunks of ice around in the hole they cut looks way too dangerous! Fall in and your toast! Wool and goose down. I don't believe we have really fully exceeded their capabilities, save for weight. So while their clothes were heavy, they were warm too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chills1994 Posted December 21, 2010 Author Share Posted December 21, 2010 "the heat's in the tools!" which is a way of saying if you're working moving around using the tools you won't notice the cold so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
