Also a good one, from a distillery:

It’s the pause where they stop and discuss it before doing the stupid thing that amazes me the most.

Exactly.
“Should we continue?”
“Sure. What could go wrong?”

I’ve seen that one. How the guy got up I’ll never know. He probably doesn’t remember how he got there.

I think they were trying to get the pallet as close to the edge as physically possible so they could get it with the fork lift. They probably didn’t expect that when the wheel of the pallet jack dropped, it would topple the whole thing.

Especially since a forklift was available right there.

Somebody else pointed out that they might have been trying to get it as close to the edge as possible when the whell of the pallet jack slipped off the deck. Still a cock up, though.

You know it’s liquor. Check out all the security cameras down the walls.
I think they were trying to get the pallet jack out from under the skid.
This version had several million dollars in losses.

Gotta wonder if anybody was killed in that one.

Still a stupid move. Any forklift operator worth his salt could have pulled the pallet as long as it was within a few feet of the back of the truck.

Agreed. Any decent forklift operator could have grabbed it within a couple of feet of the back of the truck.

Nope. Unemployed, but safe. If you look, the fork has a roof. A flat top would have been a different story.

Our union instructor for lifts and forks always makes compilations. There are some very perplexing teqniques. I am a rigger so we know about load distribution etc...

I used to work as a forklift operator for a chemical plant. The foreman hired his nephew to fill a spot in our lineup. During his brief tenure, he made two major errors that would have gotten the rest of us fired. First, he drove around a blind corner and ran the forks through the radiator of a parked forklift. Then he backed a forklift through the foreman’s cinder-block office wall. The thing that couldn’t be covered up and led to his dismissal was him taking down a section of racks. He dropped six tons of bagged chemicals onto the forklift and the surrounding warehouse floor.
We had to report it as a chemical spill, so the authorities got involved. That kept the foreman from hiding his nephew’s incompetence. It took us a couple of days to hand-stack the bags that didn’t break and clean up the mess.

Oh, I completely agree. I’m just speculating on their motivation.

My commercial insurance agent took a 100% honest question from a client.
‘Are injuries sustained in a forklift race during an after-hours party covered on WorkComp or personal health insurance?’

Not nearly enough. Or perhaps MMMMMMBEER.
Either way that's alcohol abuse.
