I agree the high reach operator I work with is extremly talented. He is a finesse operator, (the high reach is not a good machine for a crasher and a banger) and he also knows the machine inside out because with such an intercate machine comes a lot of little problems, you almost have to be a mechanic as well, not to mention breakin down of the machine to transport....
I think this is a wonderful topic to bring up.
I would love to hear more from HR operatiors, how they go about their work: how much they need to walk/check the building beforehand, how they validate what the actual construction is, setting up the pad, do they choose the tool or is it usually given to them, escape routes, how long they can work in a sitting, really useful and really bad things in some of the machines, their methods for different constructions.

Let us list some of the countries best and finest HRD Operators around, if you know there name please post it and a video perhaps of them in action. I have to say just to add my 2 pennies its high reach machines that made me wanna document the industry of demolition, and let me credit MAZZOCCHI WRECKING for this along with NACIREMA, YANNUZZI and SONS and many other fine firms out there in the field they make the job look so easy yet we all know its easier said then done.
CHEERS!!!!

Your right, the high reach operators are right in the line of fire. They are the ones who really mastermind bringing the building down, and they have to react, minute by minute to how the building is falling. We honor those operators and all the men (and women) who put their heart and soul into bringing down the building and sometimes find themselves right in the line of danger. Good work, all.
Thank you very much. I have been in the business for a while and let me tell you something High Reach Operators have one of the toughest jobs. They sit right up on the building more in harms way than any other operator (Which makes them a little crazy in breed) and they artist. I agree with steve they are amazing engineers in the line of work.

Ok all this talk of registers and highreach guidance but has anyone give a thought to the guys doing the job?we all applaud the blasters and the top-down men but what about the guys taking down these 50m+ buildings from ground level and they never get a mention.the guys on these big rigs are not just operators but also very clever engineers as they can take these structures down like a work of art and really can read the building,there is plenty who want to do this job but only a handfull who can.the industry needs to listen to these people and not just the machinery manufacturers and industry groups.
Next time you see a big demo-rig in action just think could you do a better job yourself?a machine is great but its only as good as the guy in the seat!!!!!!!!
Absolutely......I always commend the operators in all my videos. These are the guys that unbuild, dismantle and perform the act to take a building down safely and securely. Then there are the guys on the ground that assemble and troubleshoot the machines.And the guys that collect copper and aluminum and the guys that direct the hoses to keep the dust down..
These are the Gridiron Artisan's, the guys in the field that make it all happen.
