the majority of the viewers have no idea what happens when jesse "unloades a 450 shot." I like the show so far....it's just different. I have always like all of jesse's shows...I want monster garage back, obviously. and i loved that documentary he did in Iraq building a drag hummer with the shop soldiers. that was cool.
I agree with all of that, Jesse seems like a pretty real guy. I like his shows, they always keep me entertained. I never saw the drag hummer project. what show was that on? I'd like to check that out.

it was a documentary on discovery. a like 2 hour special. he just showed up in iraq and with like 15 shop workers there (who normally spend their days repairing military equipment) and set out to build a hummer that could wheelie. kinda just uplifting the spirits of a bunch of guys and girls who don't get a lot of fun time over there.
heres the end of the show. I think you can order the show on discoveries website for like 5 bucks.

you can you tube "iraq confidential" and find some stuff too....
