I worked in a warehouse for a huge company. And the rule was if anything slips or falls while trying to grab pallet of racking then you had to stop what your doing, radio the team leader to give you the ok to proceed. He should have also lifted a little before tilting back

[kyleschroeck]

I am a safety manager, so I am looking at the root cause. Why did it fall? Forks were only half in. Why? He couldn't pull all the way in. Why? Because there was inventory on the floor in front of the rack. The next 2 whys have to be answered by the company, but it seems to be common practice to leave product in front of the racking. That is the root cause of this incident.

Anyone that has at least 2 years experience driving a forklift everyday for work is cringing right now!

[teamislandstyle]

At my job this would have been an incident and the worker and supervisor would have been terminated immediately

[philiprichardson]

Looking at the state of that warehouse I guess that training was just one of many things missing from the list of stuff to do!

This guy doesn't know when to stop

@ 0:18 u can clearly see bad practice. How did he get a fork truck licence!
Even once its part way on the forks he doesnt bother to lift it higher.
So he goes back in bending the shelving in (instead of putting it back an picking it up properly. Which he should have done in the first place!

So he then lifts it up, making the load even more precarious as it tilts forward.
Then he lifts it up even further, so it's at a 45% angle.
So he decides to lift it even higher, going past the angle for recovery
Then he withdraws, pulling his forks away from the pallet, perched precariously on the shelving.
Gets out an removes a loose board.
Then moves forwards an proceeds to damage the box containing the scrap, so it spills out
Vid then ends! (they should have showed all of it)

Where is his logic?
Should have been sacked immediately!

[Alex.P]

Why keep moving it? The whole thing is about to collapse!!!

[des_smith]

The box is not strong enough for the load

[BeeRich]

This guy couldnt tie his velcro sneakers.

[BrainControl]

That place is a pigsty preventing access to and from the racking.

[chriswatson]

I have no experience driving a fork lift and even I know he should go all the way in to begin with. Doomed fro. The first 5 seconds.

Made a complete Dogs Dinner of that...
