If I was that guys boss it would be your fired get your stuff and leave. You don't do stupid stuff like that all it takes is one slip and the machine could have been on its side or upside down.

It makes you wonder where peoples brains are

Nah, no need to slap him around. He just did it to himself, just wait a few years till he can hardly walk from the damage he did to his back from dropping the back of the machine like that, then just point and laugh.

He probably compressed every vertibrea (sp) in his back dropping the machine like that.

I tend to agree, that would be the last day! I would also keep a copy of the video to show the workers comp people in case he tried to say her was hurt ar work.

I just wonder why anyone would think that is cool or fun. I'll bet they have never fixed the machine either.

Hey RT
I'll be back at the Oak mall Tues or Wed working for Bali.
Getting a long stick for the 245.
Guess I'll be digging 30+' pulling a shield...
Can hardly wait!

got me fired. i guess my boss watches youtube lol

Try explaining to your next employer why you got fired.

Ive seen quite a few vids of people doing stoppies in loaders. Makes me wonder who in their right mind would allow them to run their equipment.

I've done donuts while doing snow removal with a loader and played bumper trucks while plowing while the owner was watching. At a different company a wheel dozer hand was hitting end dump piles in 4th so hard dirt would fly over the cab and called the owner and told him to watch this. There is probably a lot of things I'm forgetting too. No one lost there jobs and the owner was laughing their butts off. Was it stupid yes and we're lucky we didn't anyone hurt, but sometimes ya have to lighten up. I do this job because I'm just a big kid playing in the dirt.

Flame away.

They are obviously not the ones paying the repair bills

pushkid84 · 12-29-2007, 01:26 AM

you guys are totaly right about it being hard on the machine and on the operator but it is entertaining i don t think i would do it but it is cool to watch
