I used to drive a forklift in the Army. Mostly we loaded MLRS (Multi-Launch Rocket Systems) onto flatbed trailers, then braced them with dunnage. I dropped a load that had rusted out forklift pockets, and people went running for their lives as I'm just sitting their like "What? It's not fused people. Duuhhh..."

I also witnessed a Chief Warrant officer trying to show his troops that he could still operate a forklift, only to lose control veering into a ditch, jump out the wrong way and crush himself. He had two weeks left until retirement.

I know... happy, happy, joy, joy.

Glad your ok though. Merry Christmas.
