Kinda sad to see in some respects. His fluency of speech is definitely down compared to days of old but then again, I?m sure mine is too. I don?t have old videos to compare myself with though.
A bit surprised to see him welding without gloves at one point and the way that his chain riveting technique left him with tight links. A proper chain tool lets you push a rivet with the back plate supported or unsupported so that you can make fine adjustments.

That might just be a reflection on not having a full production crew available to do script editing, multiple takes, and lots of slick editing.
at least he had a mask :-)
He's 70 and looks and sounds nearer eighty.
