You can just skim to the results, however I was impressed by his methods, anyone who can spend so much time drilling and tapping that many holes has to be admired.

However one thing that he did miss was that the results would be skewed by the bolts, some of the inserts were so strong the bolts snapped and he used that figure to show how strong the insert was when it fact that's how strong the bolt was. I also liked the fact he did a corrosion test to check on how they stood up to a hostile environment.  A cylinder head I would classify as hostile.

I couldnt watch him/that for long although the subject matter was interesting the American way of saying the same thing over and over is so tedious I got as far as 7 mins and had to mute it then another 2 and that was me.

Why would you use 4 words when 12 will do just as well................. ::) ??? :-\
Seen that guy before and I agree, think it is his voice that drives me mad....
