Sounds like a bingo caller.
Other than that ... dreadful. Needs to familiarise himself with the plans a lot better, it comes across that he doesn't know what he's looking at most of the time. Thank god we've got @cpoverview for the drone footage.
Should have seen the first one he did, thought the hotel was a bunch of prefab offices .Sounds like a bingo caller.

Was it mentioned (Quite a while ago) that the bridging structure between the two towers would be lifted into place in one go?
Meant to add previously, this will most likely only happen once the two towers have come fully to ground. The one has had the pier removed and ground prepped for piling, other one not far behind.
What was the rationale for building the towers initially as cantilevered rather than from the ground up from the outset?Meant to add previously, this will most likely only happen once the two towers have come fully to ground.

Bloody hell got phlegm on my screen now.

The backstay cables and foundations were in the way. They had to cantilever to transfer the frontstay cables, to then be able to remove the back, pile and get the steel built from the ground.
