And we had a crew of about 20 people, and we were inside of this big old ship that hauled crude. And yeah, I don't know if you know much about it, but everything gets coated with inches, thick of paraffin that settles out of the crude. And so here we are down in the hold of a ship that heated up to unbearable temperatures during the day down in the hold, staging up. Oh, I think we put down close to 40,000 watts of lights to light the dark hold. And then lower down a jib arm and assembled it all down there. And of course, everything was covered with paraffin and the bottoms of your boots. You would get build-ups on the bottom of your boots that would basically, finally, when we had up to two or three inches of paraffin, you'd have to scrape it off. And it was like walking on girders that were two feet across.
