You might wanna turn your sound down for this one. Anyone who's operated a forklift before is gonna see some glaring mistakes going on here. Number one, even attempting to lift tons upon tons of weight like this with multiple forklifts is already a kinda sketchy move. Things really start to turn when you see those masts not getting tipped back. Crap like this is a decent reminder that the safest place to be in a tipping forklift is inside that damn forklift. Here are some safety failures that would give OSHA nightmares.

You risk your life every time you step out the door. Or even stay at home. Even when you're sleeping. Anyway, these folks are some of the luckiest people out there.

If you're in the mood, here are some more nerve-wracking stories of survival.
