If they wore eye protection, didn’t pick up unexploded ordinance and stayed well clear of downed power lines I’d label them geniuses without hesitation. Nonetheless, skinny geeks with cojones.

Here's some faves. There's also one where they tie an RV propane tank to a kite in a thunderstorm, but can't get the lightening to strike, I'm still hunting youtube for part 2:

Plus, their war reporting is so casual and verite’ they deserve a Nobel. Clearest picture i’ve gotten of what’s going on there, real you are there stuff that multi-million dollar news budgets can’t hold a candle to.

We should invite them to TAG, bet they'd build a MONSTER tube amp powered by chunks of stuff spewed out of Chernobyl.
