Not I,

I'm guessing he's an avid martial artist or dancer (leaning toward martial artist, when he comes out of some of his "moves" his hands are at the ready) that decided to amuse himself making some videos while he's working.

I'm guessing on a normal day he looks as bored to tears as anyone laying a few hundred feet of laminate flooring.

George was just demonstrating he Zeal for his Life and how this Zeal can be applied to ALL things.

It is all part of the Gaia Theory/Concept.

That Everything is all part of One.

He was demonstrating the Chi, The flow, of the execution of a task.



The accompaning Music was Psy-Trance. A Musical Genre that I am deeply familiar with.



He is NOT a Tweeker or Meth-Head, but DMT may have played a part in his life at some time..................

I thought he might be a graduate of Rex Kwon Do, or he might know uncle Rico.

The way the majority of those floors are racked out, I assure you they look like ****. If you are working with same length material it is impossible to stair-step half the floor like that without have a very repetitive pattern. Rookie work.
Speed is not the #1 priority on my jobs, nor should it be of anyone who claims to be a pro.

ABSOLUTELY!!

As some here know, I am well involved in the New York EDM/Rave scene. This guy certainly looks like he fits!!

The rolls he does on the Garage are basic defensive Martial Arts rolls.

Not me 'cause I don't use air nailers. I do however approve of his style and I'd hire him in a minute. We'd mesh quite well.

I had all access for Sat and Sun at Randalls, but I was too busy with local Events.

Starscape, Desiderata, ORB are the last large Events I have attended. I was at Infected Mushroom acoupla weeks ago at Terminal 5 NYC.

I do alot of local and Psy-Festivals.

See my photobucket account MALCONewYork for my RAVE photos.

I am guessing that his 'best work' is done when noone else is on the job.
I was joking about the drug use but there is no way he actually does work in that manner.
