I had to smile at this video clip of human pile-drivers at work in Thailand.
Shows what a little ingenuity, and some synchronization, can accomplish!

Rhythmic pile-driving!
The idle musings of a former military man, former computer geek, medically retired pastor and now full-time writer. Contents guaranteed to offend the politically correct and anal-retentive from time to time. My approach to life is that it should be taken with a large helping of laughter, and sufficient firepower to keep it tamed!
Obviously NOT driving through hard stuff… But interesting! 🙂
I had composed my comment in my mind about "Yeah, syncing up hammerblows in blacksmithing is like that." Then I watched the video. No, no, we didn't do it that way at all. Funny!
I do love all of the clever ways in which folks get the job done faced with a lack of what many would consider required tools.
It's amazing the solutions people can find.

Setting the primary supports for the new 8-storey manufacturing facility…
Seen elsewhere "most houses in Bangkok are built on nine meter precast skin friction piles, normally five piles per footing pad"
