Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Combine sledgehammers and disc saws with Slayer and windmilling and you have one of the most metal videos ever to grace YouTube.

Scroll down for the video

The unnamed man in the video windmills as he operates an impact driver, windmills as he uses as a jackhammer and even windmills as he mixes grout, proving that literally no situation can't be improved with a little Slayer.

The video of the headbanging construction worker has already drawn hundreds of thousands of views, with one YouTube user declaring: "This is also how I make breakfast in the morning."

Windmilling probably wouldn't make it past healthy and safety guidelines on a building site, such is its dizzying effect, and the man doesn't seem to get a hell of a lot actually built in the clip, but we salute his dedication to metal all the same.
