#3 insurance go whhhrrrrr #9 is on the manager, pallets shouldn't be stacked without support underneath. Kid should get a raise for revealing a deadly problem to management.
Aside from being slightly downward angle (might be an illusion from the screen?), nope; although I've never used one either. Looks like the tip wasn't in the hole and pushed the pallet off the edge of the shelving.
It's difficult to judge angles from that video, but the guy running the forks misjudged, too. It looks to me like the forks were a little high and going in at a slight angle. I think the left tine hit just above the hole in the pallet, and the right tine never engaged.
But Arc is correct. If the pallet had been on a proper shelf, it would have only been pushed back a little, then the operator would have re-adjusted and got it on the second try. Instead, the pallet must have been resting on just a bare framework. Push it a couple of inches and it falls off the front bar and crashes down. Do _anything_ less than perfectly and a pallet would fall. It was a whole row of accidents waiting to happen.
#1: I think she still has two working eyes, so considering what a stupid thing she just did (on a couple of levels) she's kinda lucky.
#3: I wouldn't be surprised if it cost over $10,000 to fix that truck. And the midlife-crisis-mobile more than that. My first car was a 75 Malibu. It wouldn't have a scratch on it because vehicles used to be built like tanks instead of accordions.
#10. Laughed so hard, beer came out Mr nose.
ReplyDeleteI know! I can’t stop laughing at that for some reason…

#1 I wonder if she learned her lesson about not messing around with wildlife. Looks like she may have gotten a scar from that encounter.
ReplyDeleteGravity!
ReplyDelete#1 Type of idiot that thinks if we just sat down and talked with the Russians or Iranians we could make it all better.
ReplyDelete#8 would be an awesome way to decorate the edge of a garden path.
ReplyDeleteSpent almost 20 years as a car hauler. That's a new one.
ReplyDelete#8: Found Han Solo.

While that is the best practice, you don't see anything wrong with the angle of the forks?

I'm sure that at some point in my 68 years that I've pulled a #6.
ReplyDeleteThose pillars and trees are all just waiting for the chance to jump out at us.

#4: I can't be the only one who saw that coming.
#5: On today's edition of "Spot the Tourist!"
#6: That is one STRONG pole.
#10: I'd love to see the next 15 seconds.
#5 could be used to introduce a Strength of Materials class. The swing was probably designed for a 30 pound toddler, here's a 180 pound man...
