[video] Epic Fail

[maniac]

A friend of mine used to work for a popular beer distribution company and used to drive the forklifts. He regularly had to lift full pallets of bottled beer from the top level of their warehouse racking onto the waiting lorries. This racking consisted of two runs of parallel steel poles which the pallets rested on, perfectly safe in normal operation, until one day whilst not paying attention quite as much as he should have been, he managed to get the forks underneath one of the supporting rails rather than the full pallet of bottled larger that he was meant to be lifting.

 

I expect most of you can imagine the end result - lots of broken glass, a shower of beer for my friend and at least one off license now short on its beer delivery. There were exactly 2 unbroken bottles found during the clear up which were duly cleaned up in a traditional way.

 

Unfortunitely camera phones had yet to be invented when this happened, so we never got any pictures.

 

Mike.
