Tank Rats on Discovery Channel!

Post by captain_john »

Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs is sealing fuel tanks from the INSIDE!

I think it is coming on momentarily!

He goes inside Air Force aircraft refueling tanks and seals them up!

Is anybody else watching?

All I can say is that he's nutz. The other thing that blew me away was seeing all of the "stuff" inside of those wings. Sheesh, I thought we had a bunch of parts to rivet.

Spike, I would do all that crazy stuff he does! Wait... sooooo, you think I am... nevermind!

Chad, I am sure it will be on again soon. It was the year in review kind of thing. Maybe it's on tonight?
