Christmas pallet trick

A reader in the UK has sent photos of three men decorating a Christmas tree using a telehandler and wooden pallet as a form of powered access.

Spotted in Tuxford, two of the men are seen installing Christmas lights on a sizeable tree from a large wooden pallet, which is being lifted to an approximate height of five metres. Unlike some examples that we have seen these two have not even attempted to add any sort of side/fall protection.

A third man, who is assisting with the lights, is seen two metres up on the porch roof. Perhaps he is there to catch anyone that falls?

One hopes they managed to get the trees on the roof in a safer manner than they have decorated them!

Definitely one for our Death Wish series.
