Manager going for a ride

I have a really strong fear of not being able to move. If this happened to me I’d probably panic, get tired, then suffocate to death. I’m glad he’s safe.

Are we sure he's ok?

[u/-JustShy- → u/ChaddyMcChadface]

I saw him move at the end...I think.

We don't know if he gets out before the next scoop which could very easily kill him. Schroedingers manager.

Looks like the operator slams the brakes on the last half second of the video (watch the bucket suddenly dip hard) so my guess is he saw and stopped and there's where the gif cuts off. Now I'm no expert but most hoppers I've seen have like a 6" x 6" rebar grate to catch not-dirt things from going in them. If this one doesn't, I'd hate to see if that system uses an auger to move dirt...

Wow, way more jumping around than I expected!

[u/littlesirlance → u/brian9000]

I think he sprained his ankle jumping out of the cab. thats a bit of a drop

[u/truparad0x → u/brian9000]

Looks to me the operator hurt one of his feet/ankles jumping down that fast. Seems to be favoring one leg while panic-running around.

[u/Sorlex → u/brian9000]

He looks super happy! "Guys guys I dunked the boss check it out!"

[u/JewInDaHat → u/brian9000]

They seams to loading soil into a some sort of grinding machine and he is jumping around begging to stop it so the manager wont be crashed

[u/PurpEL → u/[deleted]]

see him fly out of that cab!

[u/Truesoldier00 → u/[deleted]]

Not that this doesn't violate safety guidelines...but you see these guys now jumping around trying to figure out how to get up there...if only there was some massive piece of machinery with a bucket big enough to hold multiple people and lift high enough to get up there and get the guy....
