    I'll play. I saw this in a parking garage in Chicago.

    Is it wrong that this seems like a perfectly safe idea to me?:dunno:

    I have lived on a farm all my life and we do worse stuff than this weekly.:D

    6 men without harnesses
    Using hydraulics as a personnel lift.
    What's going to happen if the top load shifts?
    How about if either engine fails?
    Bottom guy hits the wrong lever?

    6 men without harnesses- What's a harnesses?:dunno:
    Using hydraulics as a personnel lift.- Isn't that what the bucket of our tractors is for? Ain't they hydraulic?
    What's going to happen if the top load shifts?- Well you're gonna have a hell of a mess, but why would the guy on top shi... oh boy, did I read that wrong.
    How about if either engine fails?- Somebody gets a ladder and they climb down?
    Bottom guy hits the wrong lever?- Why would he do that? Aren't forklift drivers usually the best and brightest among us?:laugh:

    I was a forklift driver once, for a couple of days. Turns out, they expect you to look at them round mirrored thingys at corners and not just round them sprint car style while laying on your horn.:cool:

    Things designed to lift people, are supposed to be designed to fail safe.
    Fork lifts are not.
    OSHA sees you standing on the forklift's tines, and there's going to be a fine.

    I saw this one or one like it a few years ago. As an owner of a tractor with a front end loader, this one kind of makes me pucker a little bit.

    Safety Tip: Be careful about dropping your bucket, your tractor might just try to do a front somersault.
