BOOM

You did that intentionally... so we'd all have to go back and watch the whole damn thing again :popcorn:. But I found it... doesn't look like much at first. Thanks for letting us know you're human (or nearly so ;))... shagged out rotor cuffs and all.

yeah I only considered after reading this post that I could have given you the time point in the vid my bad.
appearances a little deceptive on that piece but trust me it was weighty and as you can see I did not expect a slippage so being relaxed prob helped me out.
and there will be a stihlmadd blooper vid when I retire with all the edits yet unseen. ( def human here)
out of interest without meaning to hassle , the vid I put up recently as requested by yourself and Reg - Project R
have you seen it yet? just wondering.

Never a hassle... I've watched the video twice on my phone but need to get out the ear buds or something, 'cuz my old shagged our ears can only make out about half of what you're saying o_O. Wanted to ask about it in person :oops:. I got it that a crane fuck up pissed you off good. Was that prior to the job in this video?
 
yes last year a almost brand new 100 ton locked out on me at a critical point and there was nothing the crane driver could do about it. the nerve damage in my left shoulder is a permenent reminder of what can happen doing crane work when the pic doesn't want to fall away from you rather comes back and says hello.:rayos:
thats why I charge more for crane work. the vid was called bentleigh but the cameras weren't running for that pick for some reason and did not get any footage to show you exactly what occurred. :raro2:
everyone on the ground thought it had taken my head clean off but I managed to deflect it at the last second with the 460 but paid a price body wise for the manoeuvre .
not my finest hour.

The music is just great on this vid Ben. Sorry about the injury.
 
Cheers knothead, well it was the 460 that took the actual impact but driving away a couple hundred kilo battering ram by deflecting it with a running medium saw is not something I would highly recommend to any one.
it was too much compression then thrust under load all in a flash for my shoulder joint to be able to distribute and not bear some form of damage and hey it could have been a whole lot worse so once again our Father was looking out for me. :)
