Customer wont even notice. If I pass you on the right, I'm flipping you off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTTuner Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Oh Phuck, thank God he didn't get hurt. I wonder why they would be filming him working on that truck? Looks like the RR lift arm slipped off the frame. Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
executor485 Posted October 15, 2010 Author Share Posted October 15, 2010 My guess is that they have video for security/insurance purposes rather than a direct "we're filming him cause he's a bad employee, or we set this up". But that's my assumption. Def was lucky to have moved when he did. If I pass you on the right, I'm flipping you off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattg Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 I think it's possible that could buff right out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JesseH Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Looks like a block of wood or something came loose on the near side rear, fell to the floor at the 0:54-0:55 mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's common to have those as spacers between the lift and car to make sure that the lift actually lifts at the correct positions and doesn't damage something under the car. Since we couldn't see the underside it's hard to tell what really happened, but it may be that the car wasn't positioned correctly on the lift.

TRSCobra Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 I've seen a few trucks fall off of lifts in my day, but never flip over! Even if he was in the way, it fell slow enough for him to escape injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strabismo Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 And people think I'm paranoid when I double and triple check the lifting contact points when I lift my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do the same thing. Your putting yourself at too much risk when you dont check thoroughly. If I pass you on the right, I'm flipping you off.

Strabismo Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 The funny thing is that I think more about the damage it could do to my car than the risk of personal injury/death when I do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
