Default Forklift driver destroys $189k of alcohol
Quote:
Video footage of a forklift driver accidentally destroying $189,000 worth of alcohol in a Russian warehouse has been posted on the internet.

Taken from a CCTV camera in the warehouse, the video shows the driver reversing into a stack of boxes, containing bottles of vodka and cognac.

The collision caused a domino effect that left him and another forklift driver buried under hundreds of boxes.

Colleagues of the driver are seen frantically climbing over the boxes to rescue the drivers buried underneath.

One of the drivers suffered a minor foot injury while the other escaped unharmed.

The video was sent to a Russian website by an anonymous worker at the warehouse and posted online on Friday.

LMAO,

Would look great in the obituaries though; crushed to death by alcohol, what a way to go. People will be talking about you for decades.

He was already rolling backwards. I wonder if he gunned it hoping to just spin the wheels?


The Klause video is great even in German. I found that one a few years ago. It's hysterical.

you'd think the other worker's would jump at volunteering to clean up.
"this pallets got a few broken bottles in it...better throw them ALL out just in case though" *secretly pockets a few bottles*
