Seen most the excavator videos on YouTube it's a little Sunday morning ritual for my boy and I, I find the videos and he gets his toys and recreates the video :p

I'd say that was more punting that canoeing a far more genteel way to spend the day. Steel toe capped flipflops are obiously mandatory in south east Asia.

Don't take it to heart hen'. I was on sites in the days when it was considered the crack to sit in the bucket and be spun around at full throttle.

couple of years ago there was a video of some apprentices jumping off scissor lifts onto fall arrest bags, hanging onto cherry pickers as the boom was turned 360 at full pelt.

the employer of the lads in question were struck off 5no major contractor tender lists and major sackings did follow. ng, were the contractor concerned.there's a clue as not wanting this site getting into legal action. :O
God loves a tryer
