  1. That was a most unexpected pleasure! I had to watch because I’m following the Armor series did not to expect to be so engaged in this piece. Good call, thanks for sharing. I’m going to take a wild guess that Adam had to buy one LOL

  2. Holy balls, that is some incredible attention to detail. The amount of talent in that family is frankly sickening lol.

  3. Very interesting, and as a side i used to live near a Glen English who was a motorbike racer; wonder if it’s the same person?

  4. I believe ‘Gobsmacked’ is the phrase that best describes the feeling you get from watching this. Truly amazing!
