00:04 My passion is building humongous swords.
00:07 I'm a welder by trade.
00:11 I used to build bridges and buildings, but I found it terribly boring.
00:15 I started making swords for my own personal amusement.
00:19 A friend put some of my work on YouTube.
00:21 Six million total views later, boom, I'm inundated with requests.

00:29 Life is too short to spend it doing something you hate.
00:34 So I want to try and make a living and support my family by making and selling giant swords.
00:39 I don't know whether this is going to work or not.
00:44 It's either going to be a soaring tale of triumph...
00:46 ...or a bitter saga of defeat.
00:49 And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how you make a hernia.
00:54 Big Giant Swords, a brand new series. Premiers Tuesday at 10 on Discovery.
