[Music] You guys won't believe this. That culvert got blown into their porch and parked like that. This isn't an abandoned town. Those folks were still living in that house. An F4 tornado came through a town in Iowa and just wiped out so many lives, so many homes. And a company called Go Serve Global steps in and completely volunteers using their own equipment, their own resources, and charging nothing. And the people that do this aren't funded by some big mega corporation. In fact, they're barely getting by. Let me show you. All right, guys. I'm in Iowa today and uh this town got hit by recordbreaking winds. Tornado just devastated almost 400 homes. And I'm down here volunteering with the company called Go Serve Global. There's the big Green Army truck. It's next in line to get loaded up. And we're not using fancy equipment. I'll show you what we're using here. That's a pickup truck with a dump trailer. I mean, we're using the resources we have. That's what we got for resources. So sometimes you just don't complain, you just get by with what you got. Wherever there's a disaster, they go and they don't charge anything and they don't get paid anything. They don't charge a dump fee. They don't charge for any of the equipment. None of their operators get paid. Everything is 100% voluntary. What a beautiful day. And I'm at the Ghost Serve Global Campground. This was my trailer last night. take you inside, let you see my sleeping quarters. And my office today is going to be a 55,000lb excavator. And we got a brand new uh house to take down. Well, it's not new. It's an old house hit by a tornado. But these are the folks. Go Serve Global. They knock down houses completely free. They do. They do not charge the people to do this.
