This Week's Video Picks

Our Top 5 Videos of the Week - Friday 31 July

See the selection of our favourite Discovery Channel videos this week, which include an emotional visit to an important Chop Shop location, a second look at one of the cases from My Shocking Story and the everyday perils of working at sea.

1. My Shocking Story - Treeman, the Cure
"Half Man Half Tree" Dede has been staying in hospital for six weeks following his treatment, and is getting bored and lonely. His relatives can't visit him yet, but Discovery Channel's producer takes some time to see how he's getting on and - more importantly - whether the treatment of his skin condition is working.

2. Chop Shop - Goodbye Garage
It's been the setting of good times and bad for the Chop Shop boys, but the garage is now unsafe to work in and must be closed down. Bernie visits for one last time, and reminisces about the history of their workshop, where so many of their inspirational concept cars were created.

3. Future Weapons - Simon Rifle Grenade
Mack takes a look at a new and alternative way to breach a closed or locked door successfully without anyone needing to stand dangerously close to any explosives. This amazing piece of technology means that nobody will ever have a problem opening doors again - and can even be used in dangerous hostage situations.

4. Wheeler Dealers - Let's Off-road!
Mike Brewer and Edd China took a break from fixing cars and buying bargain parts to take a boldly-coloured land rover for a hair-raising test-drive. Watch them attack hills and tilt the car to risky angles, and then find out what they think their newest motor project might be worth.

5. Deadliest Catch - Ice
When a fishing boat in the arctic gets iced up, there is nobody to clean up the mess but the crew themselves. Plus, if it's left unattended, the build-up can mean an extra 15 tonnes of extra weight above the deckline and potentially sink the boat. Find out which dangerous methods are used to keep the pots from getting too icy.
