I've watched when the 'puncture' is done...saves the cow's life, but hard to watch.

His Bud is near drowning...and he's concerned about his fishing poles.

It looks to me like he moved the poles to be able to slide the guy toward the ladder.

Yes he did...I was looking at after he did that, looking disinterested.

Cool, interesting video, but also like many/most other seem today. Many/most of the facts are accurate with maybe a couple of facts represented in a way that they seem different than they really are. Then often the video portion is a mix of accurate and complete fantasy because most folks are ooing and aahing at the images while they listen to the text.

Yes, there was a lot of copper mining by Indians going way back, but this and everything else that I found shows it less impressive than the nicely smoothed and cut tunnels and huge open pits.

I saw another video that said that Prince playing a 3 min solo at the end of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" was revenge for not being included in Rolling Stones' top 100 guitarists the previous year.

^^^ Prince would surely be on my top 10 list of guitarists.
We lost a great one with him.
