i had noticed that myself. he should really have sloped or stepped the sides but the guy that was in the trench was standing in the concrete pipe for protection as you can see it the video. that still is no excuse but at least he was in a safe place 90 percent of the time he was down there

I made this Video while i was working in Vancouver. its me trying to get a mini excavator out of a swimming pool. I had to go into it to break the bottom and then the hitachi zx75 was meant to bail rock into me into the pool to fill it it. I was never meant to try to climb out until the pool had been filled right up. My boss decided he wanted me to climb out to do some other work so i had to gather up some wooden boards to give me some traction on the sand. The reason im going very slow and cautiously is because i didnt want to break the paving at the edge of the pool.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hI27_nwRG5U
