I love Project Farm videos and here's another good one for Recovery Ropes. You gotta love the Rhino USA name but they're made in China. :shock:

Personally I like https://yankum.com/ they’re made in the USA and their kinetic ones are really nice. Not something I would want to fail when you really need it. Keeping any of the clean free of dirt is just as important for long life

That's the one Matt's Recovery uses. ?

Don't worry...now that we and all of EU left the factories in Russia when we sanctioned them, they'll be our new supplier in the future lol...

gah, absolutely cannot tolerate that narrator. seems to just LOVE reading numbers really fast
Agreed. I swear that he's 8th generation auctioneer. I'm actually kind of disappointed that he didn't yell out "SOLD!!!" when he revealed his favourite.

Aside from that, pretty interesting to watch, but I'd probably be more interested in a write-up so that I can compare the stats without feeling like I need to bid on something.

It seems to be a trait he developed over the years - if you watch his early videos they were very tame - at some point he adopted the "yelling/auctioneer" voice which seems to be his trademark now.

It’s because he speeds up the playback speed of the video to 1.25 speed to fit in more content faster. YouTube has stats on views vs video length and when you have as many subscribers as he has YT has a consultant assigned to his account that provides him such info. They want his videos optimized so they are more than happy to provide optimization info to him since they make money as a result of his content.

The fast playback is probably an effort to keep viewers from skipping ahead to the graphs that show which product won each test, which is what I do.

That explains the speed at which he talks but not the volume. He is basically yelling in all his videos - if you watch the older ones they were quite different.

I tend to watch youtube at 1.5-2x speed so his videos are always hilarious. have to adjust settings.
