Look at the retarded moment at 1:27, dumbass trying to forklift up the
oxygen tank bank, you can expect anything from a crew like that.


Union worker, no doubt. evil grinne


But I am glad that I do not have to deal with such huge tall things.


I'll bet!


The tallest thing that I handled, was about 25 feet tall.


Wouldn't you have stripped the crane module off the top first, in
pieces, so the demo of the frame would have been safer?
