Pallets gone crazy

We have all seen the pallet on the forks of a fork truck used as a form of access, this use of pallets as a form of access equipment is in another league though.

Taken recently near Wakefield, West Yorkshire in the UK, the person building this new home clearly has access to thousands of shipping pallets which he is using to create a scaffold, but not as we know it.

Not only has this builder created his own work platform, but he has even made it mobile, by stacking the pallets trailers. It almost goes without saying that there are no guardrails, not toe-boards or safe means of access to the working platform.

A definite Death Wish.
