Friday afternoon shocker

A picture currently appearing on Facebook is quite incredulous, it shows a Niftylift HR12 on the forks of a loader shovel. The compact boom lift is fully extended to reach a high outdoor light probably of around 18 to 20 metres.
But even with the loader shovel's boost. the man looks as though he could use another half metre. Perhaps he will stand on the guardrails next?

Trusting the quality of the forks


We are not sure where it was done, but looking at the terrain we would guess UK or Ireland although it could easily be the Netherlands of Denmark? The light has foot rungs for climbing and we would suggest that climbing it with a harness for use when resting or working would be infinitely safer than this set up.

Definitely one for our Death Wish series

Have a safe weekend
