hausdok Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 I like to think that I'm pretty confident with just about any machine anyone can put in my hands. Operating machines of any sort has always come very naturally to me. Well, after seeing the YouTube video below I now know that I'm just a rank amateur. This guy is one confident operator! http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=RobaJKGMMiE ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike
Jim Katen Posted March 3, 2012 Report Posted March 3, 2012 Seems like a burst hydrolic line would be a real inconvenience for that guy.
Marc Posted March 3, 2012 Report Posted March 3, 2012 If I recall correctly, a team of engineers came up with this idea during the course of a lunch break to break the monotony and to showcase their engineering prowness. There's no useful application for it. It was just for fun. Marc

If it hadn't worked he would have been toast and they would have said, "Oops!" ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike
Erby Posted March 3, 2012 Report Posted March 3, 2012 Nah, did you see how well that thing was secured with pins and hooks. As long as he got hooked in at each transition, he wasn't going anywhere.
David Meiland Posted March 3, 2012 Report Posted March 3, 2012 I tend to agree, it would be hard to break loose completely. At the end, after he extended the main ram fully... if that hose burst, he would come down hard against the tower and who knows what would happen. Bonus points to the announced with the red overcoat who stood directly underneath the machine near the end.
