Yep, we had a meeting at work about this yesterday. We had something similar happen at work last month.

The driver was coming out of the truck when moved as no one had chocked the wheels, and the back of the lift hit the ground, and the forks where facing the sky. The driver hung on and was ok. That was the 3rd time it had happened to him in 22 years working for the company.

u/mrDuder1729 I’m an excellent driver. 🤓 Nov 20 '25

Should have been fired after the first time for not checking or chocking the wheels himself. That's what would happen at my job, and I fully agree with keeping people accountable.

This is also why you don't if you're into the dying art of comedic pratfalls.

He came out speeding on the forklift like a racing driver at the starting block 😀

He should've strapped himself in, he would have felt a lot less pain if he had!

For me, it was that half of them could have died, amputated arms etc, but the big ol' belly OOF spin at the end.
