    That had to be in the minority section of Montreal like 30 miles from the City , I know Montreal inside and out and I can tell you it is nowhere near the city. Did you see the guy looking up at Nicky screaming his name?? It looked like he was after Nicky and then Nicky cut the video off the window and on the cat.

              We got about 10 inches of snow and 40 mph winds 2 days ago. Shit is vicious. We also topped out at 6 degrees today. Christ. Nice vid.

                we agreed that this area is a slum since the russians invaded. haha i love how people think it's a shanty town t hough. i do need to look at this vid better though cause i totally couldn't tell that was the bridge!

                come to the gym one day, we'll make a vid.

                  Nicky's got a point, the whole city looked gray and gloomy during the snowfall. I couldn't see shit out my window.

                      Nicky where are all the high rises and corporate buildings??

                      Where you live is so dark, I bet it is dangerous there at night.

                      Jimmy I know Montreal better than most and I know where that video was shot ( Ste Catherine st. between Atwater and Guy)

                          pretty impressive jj that you know those streets, but i don't live there. jj, it was a dark and gloomy day and it was only 1240 pm.. imagine that. that was the view from my office. the balcony view has all the buildings.. this is not a poor area, jj.. no gangstas here at all.. not one.. they don't exist here

                          brock, that ice storm was unreal.. i think it was in 97.. there hasn't been one like that since.. the city was a graveyard for 2 weeks. no power, no heat, trillions in damage. montreal became a ghost town. surprised you recall that..

                                The ice storm was quite an experience. It was eery as **** to walk outside and not hear a peep, almost no vehicles moving around, no electrical transformers buzzing, no nothing. Loved it.

                                    i remember i was all set to watch the season finale of reboot, and my aunt had underground power wires so she had electricity for a bit. i was so happy i'd get to see it. i sat down and turned on the tv and the cable went out. every channel was dead. i was so furious. and then my uncle comes in an hour later saying how he watched the whole thing at his place and it was the greatest episode of all time. i wanted him dead.

                                      yeah, what memories. i do remember walking on a small street and you can't hear a thing.. just pitch black, and tons of ice on the trees, and nothing but ice all around you, like those christmas cards. it was so freaky.. you could hear a pin drop and just pitch black. come to think of it, it was like being in a scary movie from the future, or like i was no longer alive. what a freaky time that was..

                                      it was like a different world i'd never seen before. it felt like a dream.

                                            The ice storm was in January of 98. It also hit upstate New York. When you live in the middle of nowhere and you're trapped without power for days...life is not fun. It was eerie walking outside and just hearing trees breaking.

They looked like they were up to no good. If you live in a high rise it usually is the projects, I thought Nicky lived in a penthouse in the City of Montreal?? I swear that is no City he lives in, Nicky that looks like Queens, NY where Ron Artest grew up by Queens Bridge projects. Nicky what the fuk is going on here????
