Mike Rowe Helps Carve the Crazy Horse Monument! | Dirty Jobs | Discovery

Today I visited this monument and I am in awe… at the museum, upon entering I watched the 24 minute video of how it all began… at the end of the short documentary I felt like crying.
Wow! What dedication this incredible man and his family have to the Crazy Horse dream.
It’s been 75 years in the making. I hope it can be completed within a few years.
It’s truly a touching masterpiece of hard work and dedication. ❤

I am not going live long enough to see it finished. But it’s coming along.

Thank you, Mike, for bringing this wonderful piece of artistry to the forefront of historical statuary. Where we just watched statuary being destroyed around the world, this will remind the public that we should honor artists and accept what can be achieved.

We've been to several places Mike R has presented - THIS MONUMENT is next on our agenda. LOVE YA, MIKE!

Cant wait to visit. My father blessed me with the middle name Crazy Horse. Always been such an honor to have his name as my middle name. One of the real founding fathers

[bwasman]

An extremely important project to a finish...I saw it at the beginning and have admiration for it's completion!

[hooahextreme]

Awesome. So cool to see something local on this show. I'm so amazed every time I drive by Crazy Horse. Last year My family had a private tour to the face. That was well worth the donation.

Look how hard it is for us to carve something like this in 2023. How was the sphinx carved in Egypt way back then? Crazy.

[andriagutierrez]

Thats incredible. You're that much cooler!! People need to know about this

[rickDArula]

Almost sad this wont be done in my lifetime. Hopefully my kids see it when its done

[TheToxicDefender]

Nobody sits like this rock sits. You rock, rock. The rock just sits and is. You show us how to just sit here and that's what we need.

[steven.h]

It's come a long way since this filming! Compare photos and videos of today, stark difference!

I was there in April for my 30th birthday. We had gone to Keystone and Mount Rushmore, and then stopped by Crazy Horse. It was off season so we went to the museum and watched the film. I hope to see it done in my lifetime.

This damn thing will never get done it seems. I saw this back in the mid 90's visiting South Dakota and almost 30 years later it looks exactly the same!

[yowwwwie]

I was there in 2009....the work appears slow. I wondered how they were going to put a horse's head w flowing mane and all they had planned. I'm glad they were able to complete Crazy Horse's face at least.
It is a shame that the government and tribal leaders can't come together and get this project completed.

Mike always had a thing about remembering the names of the people he was working with correctly, and a close look at the introductions will reveal his "learning" technique.

[ikoppandi]

I am not a person who donates to any irrelevant funds, but for this I do as it is funded by the tribal and private funds and NOT the goverment

[Blougheed]

I brought a girl home from the bar last sunday... and said that I had a Mike Rowe unit.... never really got what that meant.

[_Tommmmmm_]

Wow not much change since I was there in 2002
