Farmer sees title: **blushes**

MA Williams 9

You know i did

Aw shucks

@Jabby 101 u

Wholesome stuff , thanks for the video!

i made the same face when that fan started

Anyone else a farmer and is cringing at this?

I think I get where Destin is coming from. He's a smart guy who views the world with a curious and analytical eye. He looks at tools we use on a regular basis and is amazed by the marvel of engineering, where many of us discount them as things that get the job done without thinking twice about how they work. Destin can't help but see that there's a lot of complex systems working together that make it all work. That's just how his mind works. He sees these complex systems and thinks, "these people must be geniuses," but a lot of these folks view it with a much narrower scope. They don't see the same complexity and nuance that Destin sees. I'm not saying that there aren't very smart people among farmers, because I'm sure there are. All I'm saying is I get why Destin thinks these folks are geniuses, when really many of them aren't. It helps him feel empathetic towards them if he imagines that they see the world the way he does, which is a noble effort, but I think that on some level it's still a lie that he tells himself. And that's okay.

In iron working we have those “punches” they’re called bull pins. They look a lot bigger than those lol. Basically the same use, used to align the steel for bolting up.

The video is good, and I'll rant about other thing; the Finnish translation of Video title and description feels awkward, although technically correct. Google's automatic translation maybe, but I hate these automatic translations, I want see in original language, but you can't change the setting without changing whole language system of Android phone :/

Grain bin or silo? 🇦🇺

Popcorn??🤔

Hey Destin what do you think about an episode on how seeds work? And it could be interesting to look at OGM seeds, and how they change in comparison to normal seeds

if all we did at school was to watch SmarterEveryDay and Mark Rober Videos. I would of actually learned something

Funny how southern accents are contagious

so a grain bin is kind of like the opposite of a popcorn maker

very kewl and informative. Thanks!

My father was a farmer all his life after being in the US Navy during WW2. I worked that farm for 26yrs of my own life before economics made me sell I loved farming........... This was a great video and reminded me of simpler times Thank you

Awesome videos man !!

The farmer is the only person who buys at retail, sells at wholesale, and pays shipping both ways.

the SpaceX guys building the Starship orbital prototypes should take note :) they are building them from the ground up instead of top down.

I worked in the oilfield for 40 plus years, usually on or around farmland and farmers. I gained a huge respect for farmers and ranchers!!! They are greatly unappreciated by the public. Thanks for the video!!!!

FYI I LOVE Gadgets!!!

How to get a job: do the jobs nobody else wants to

If farmers were geniuses they wouldn’t have voted for trump.

HOW MANY TIMES HE SAY BEANS

the bean the bean the bean

Lots of big time farmers are smart to a point if they own the company not so if they are the worker

How many bolts did they use for the curious minds...in tons?

Is this in Auburn? I live near Auburn! Montgomery AL

Seems like a decent job. I know I'd enjoy it

I live in a farming and ranching town, and work with farmers and ranchers every day. They truly are multi-talented, brilliant people who do very difficult and awesome work! Thank you for showcasing what they do!

YouTube crammed this video down my throat. I resisted for months, yet I finally clicked on it...

Love the song!

Wow! Flashback to my teens in the later '70's on a farm in south-central Minnesota. I finally found a subject that I knew better than Destin! :) We had a similar bin setup but the blower on one of the bins had a propane heater incorporated so we could use it for drying corn. It also had an auger that optionally went up the center of the pivot to cycle grain from the bottom to the top of the bin. I also worked for a company in the summer of '79 that sold not just bins but whole grain systems that weren't covered in this video. These grain 'legs' are the big Christmas tree shaped structures that hover above a set of bins. I helped with everything from the concrete work for the swimming pool type of dump pits at the base of the leg and bin slabs, to the steel work and leg down chute branches... Very interesting and dangerous job but my monkey climbing years are behind me now. However, I did not jack bins or operate the cranes and we did not have the handy electric tools back then.

I love the mythbusters inspired intro ! Lmaoo

Podgers we call 'em in the uk. Instead of punches? looking closer tho, it is a metal punch but a podger would do!

Thank you for the compliment!

Simple Physics Matlab Simulation here @UCbuWPg3AJ1X3fKXo6AbJfSA?

its a podger not a punch

exact same tech is how stages are built

Man I avoided this video for a while. Didn't seem very interesting. Should of known better. Keep up the great work!

Unfortunately many jobs are extremely underappreciated

Great Episode! I watched with my kids and they were enthralled.

I'm guessing those soybeans are going to be in those bins for a long time, thanks Donald.

Love your videos, though I note your sponsor to be one of most unsustainable approaches to food distribution and preparation. It somehow seems in contradiction with the ethos of your channel.

What are cornses

0:18 Just finished eating smoked herrings.. now i imagine a fieldfull of herrings lol.

I saw a guy below mention computer soil analysis. If I remember right, some of the oldest operational computers in the country are still doing that kind of work, I remember reading somewhere in VA or WV (TN?) there was an oooooold IBM from the 60s that was still chugging away doing just that. Kind of makes sense, considering the farmer's motto "if it ain't broke don't fix it". We personally still run equipment made 60 years ago.

They have to be smart! They’re feeding people that think they’re trying to kill them!

Someone needs to show Trump this

If farmers are such geniuses why did most of them vote for Trump? And how do you think that’s working out for them now?

Well on the upside now they’re going to get to find out how many years soybeans can keep in a grain bin! More Smarter every day!

notbohnhere butcantleave wow... what an unbelievably unrelated and disrespectful comment. You’re what’s wrong with this country, not the people who voted for the president.

I too as a farmer still call grain bins silos sometimes

u better not pay ur kids for that!

geniuses for putting roundup on all of our refined grains

Honestly most farmers are some of the nicest people. When i was a kid my friends and I would run through fields, play hide and seek, and stuff and one time they were cutting down everything and this one guy stopped his tractor and came out to talk to us. He explained that they were cutting everything down and we would need us to leave so we don't get hurt. He then let us sit in the cab as he cut down the crops and told us how everything works. Then gave us a ride out of the field. This other time i was walking past a farm and they had a bunch of horses and I was looking at what was going on as I went by and one of the people noticed me looking and invited me over to feed a few of the horses and they named every horse to me as we walked by.

How much is the soy worth if the bin is full?

I wanna know how they get there equipment out after it's completely built

@Rod Pettit your stupid

... It's called a wheel...? SMH?

who else thinks hes putting on a proper american farmer accent to talk to the farmer XD

would like to see more videos like this

There is a LOT of technology involved in modern farming. My very first interaction with a computer was the guy at the local Department of Agriculture branch doing soil analysis for us and we would go in and get a printout from him that told us the health of our soil and what we might do to improve it. This analysis included nutrients, pH, and other factors. This was 1972. I know it has come a LONG way since that time. Every type of farm has their own thing.

Not gonna lie it's really freaking cool that these are built from the top - down. How many other structures can you say that for??

This video means a lot to me because I grew up on a farm and it is my life

@smartereveryday you should go check out slip form concrete buildings
