Demo accident.
Had to load up the Link Belt today and go rescue a Volvo that got it’s self and the operator in a pickle.
The operator was down in the pit with the machine and was pulling on some old storage bins when all hell broke lose.
He is lucky to be alive.
Why he was in the pit with the machine pulling on the bins I don’t know.
The best and safest way would to have had some cable hooked up to the bins and hooked up to the machine and then pull on them while the machine was out from under the building.
A large chunk of concert came in through the roof window of the machine landing in the lap of the operator. It weighed around 10 to 15 pounds.
So here are a few pictures.
