I think my favorite part is how calm forklift driver remains even at 45°

If the load is out of control, the safest place to be is in the cab.

When I was trained on a forklift the direction was to stay inside the cab and keep all extremities inside too when everything goes sideways.

I’ve had some sketchy shit happen before, I like the tuck and pray. Cover your head and neck and try to keep your arms and legs inside.

This knowledge probably costs an arm and a leg.

No point in panic if you can’t do anything about the situation.

This is a situation where shock is actually a helpful response

Taking the “one trip from the car to inside” mentality quite a bit too far.

Is the camera man an NPC? I’m not gonna just stand two feet away as soon as hundreds of tons of steel starts shifting weight…

It was fairly obvious in which direction they’re going to fall.

You think that until some piece of metal that was under tension springs out and flies into your face.

Forklifts were doing better than I thought, until it tipped over.
