Scary, enormous industrial behemoths
"Jon Elson" wrote in message ... Ignoramus6708 wrote: http://dvice.com/archives/2011/06/8-gigantic-indu.php There's a great powerpoint set that shows one of those strip mine excavators that picked up a bulldozer and it got lodged in the conveyor belt where the buckets dump at the top of their rotation. You might be able to find it searching for "where's my dozer?" Jon Definitely an Oh, **** moment. I'd love to see it if anyone finds it. The post accident investigation had to be interesting. Steve |
