Jack Straw's Falmer Video Watch EXTRA The Arch Dec 11th 2009

[Barry Izbak]

Sorry for the delay, especially for those who have had to set off for tonight's game already, but I’m afraid this film has taken all afternoon to load onto youtube because it is longer than usual. Hopefully it will be worth the wait,

Fortunately the mist lifted this morning in time for the first section of the arch to be lifted into place. The clearer air enables you to see see the incredible precision of the guys up at the site as they lifted this huge piece into place, so slowly.

I'm off down the pub, then on to see a rare resounding home win!

Excellent, thanks for putting that up.

 

[Guy Fawkes]

Great Video

but am I the only one who was waiting for a Mary Rose moment when one of the chains holding it up snaps?

 

[Ecosse Exile]

Nice one Bazza

 

[The Grockle]

Amazing! You guys even have a little table and a laptop! This time next year you'll probably have a gazebo and a portaloo!

Also and i'm not sure if this is a compliment but Jack Straw in this picture looks a little bit like the evil man from Eastenders/Gavin's dad in Gavin and Stacy or perhaps i'm mental?

That's not theirs. It's John Catts lawyer doing a noise assessment to see if he can have the building stopped!

 

[Billy the Fish]

f*** me, I thought the Jack Straw name was just a pisstake. That actually IS former home secretary and current MP Jack Straw

 

[Billy the Fish]

P.S I forgot to say, you are all bloody HEROES

 

[Taybha]

Quality stuff , never has so much been moved so slowly by so few and will be enjoyed by so many in years to come

 

[Nottseagull]

Great stuff, love the captions!

 

[Box of Frogs]

Can't we get a crane that moves a bit faster? Jeeee-zus!! We could have the other two bits done and dusted in an hour!!!

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

That 8 minutes was as good as the first 20 of the match last night were bad - yes, the video was THAT good!

Fantastic Barry, thank you.

 

[chimneys]

Amazing. Thanks.

Did you notice a number of people walking what looked to be right underneath the arch as it was being lifted/moved. Amazed with all this health and safety nonsense these days, that is allowed/risked by them?!
