What an interesting man he was.
I have always been a fan of his. He was a real legend.

Fred Dibhah & Jack Hagreaves walk towards you at a gathering, leave the gathering before they reach you.

Re: Fred Dibnah
I liked the way he burned down chimneys. A monument that lived its life by fire died by fire.

They would not approach anyone, there would be a queue forming eagerly and zealously wishing to hear their tales and exploits.The Mindsweep wrote: ↑Sun Jan 03, 2021 11:46 am Fred Dibhah & Jack Hagreaves walk towards you at a gathering, leave the gathering before they reach you.

Re: Fred Dibnah
To me, he was a very interesting , knowledgeable person. He obviously impressed people in TV to get such exposure.Max B Gold wrote: ↑Sun Jan 03, 2021 1:30 pmLets be honest and cruel if that is necessary but Dibnah was a Enlightened Northerner wasnt he.Oiram wrote: ↑Sun Jan 03, 2021 1:07 pmThey would not approach anyone, there would be a queue forming eagerly and zealously wishing to hear their tales and exploits.The Mindsweep wrote: ↑Sun Jan 03, 2021 11:46 am Fred Dibhah & Jack Hagreaves walk towards you at a gathering, leave the gathering before they reach you.

Re: Fred Dibnah
I confess to also watching Dibnah back in the day. As someone who can't stand heights, I watched fascinated as he climbed those bloody great chimneys without the protection of a parachute. Plus the demolishing by undercutting, pinning with timber, then burning was hugely skilful.
