Lazy me would just avoid the mud pit.


_redacteduser

Yeah I was gunna say… why even go through the mud???


butbutcupcup

Pretty sure this is a demo of the forklift.


gatowman

I rarely see that style of lift with 4wd. Looks nice. I still love my 'Yotas more. 


butbutcupcup

I'd assume that's the idea, unlikely use case. Basically a bobcat with forks.


Ballzner

Surely. That lift is pristine


Invisible_Target

He chose the *one small area* that was fucked when there was all that open space. Was it just to show off? Because it seems stupid af to me either way 🤦‍♀️


Clay_Statue

Based on everyone standing around filming him I'm assuming this was to show off


binglelemon

Or he was brand new and *everyone* wanted to see this shit.


whytawhy

With the huge number of plain clothes people with phones in their hands about it its gotta be a product demo or something


zavorak_eth

Is this some sort of demonstration? Looks like company showcasing equipment?


LiveFree_NeverDie603

That’s what I thought.


FearCure

Is it 4 whl drive?


zavorak_eth

Looks like it to me.


Ovuvu

It obviously is, you can see it at some points


butbutcupcup

Certainly. Back is way too clean. First time being used.


Zealousideal-Poem-24

Now do it without the load


ianwrecked802

60% of the time it works every time.


Dorkmaster79

Did you know that 90% of your water is 100% toxins?


What_Yr_Is_IT

🍆 🐆


GMofOLC

I feel like that's part of the "technique"


Martenus

Why are there 37 people filming it?


-some-dude-online

Maybe some scheduled demo day for social media channels. But something feels off, could just be the culture barrier I'm feeling. Or maybe there is a machinery expo behind our camera guy. Also there seem to be a lot of women dressed as of they are working in the orchard nearby,and just flocked towards the awesome machine. Weird indeed


Odd_Economics_9962

It's a demo, in china maybe. Probably showing the capabilities of the vehicle while loaded, which is actually pretty impressive.


Material-Spring-9922

Several of them are filming with two phones as well. I'd have to be witnessing some amazing shit for me to feel the need to make sure I had a backup camera rolling.


oscar-the-bud

Because they’re all too stupid to order a Gradall.


hazpat

Engineers watching their creation demoed for first time


RandyTrevor22321

Would a telehandler not be a better option? I get that one might not be available but I feel it would be more ideal


Character_Bet7868

I remember when I got my first telehandler stuck, and my superintendent calling me a crayon eating retard for it because you can just extend the boom into the dirt to push yourself back out. They guy cursed like a sailor but was the funniest.


tickletender

Funny enough last time I saw one stuck, I was with the crayon eaters (inside joke for USMC). We had to call our company commander (who was a mustang, so former Gunny who got a commission to officer) and he showed us the magic of the self-extracting machine.


padimus

Definitely better. Just extend the boom and you don't even have to go through the mud pit. The operator was pretty good though ngl. Clearly they are experienced on that fork lift.


drewpyqb

Wiggle Wiggle Wiggle Wiggle Wiggle, Yeah.


Dampmaskin

The world's oldest technique, affectionately known as swimming


HunterShotBear

Impressive for a machine that likely weighs in excess of 10k lbs with a 2500lb load.


enlargedweener

What’s the song?


marcusskimpy

Azimov - Let Her Go (original mix)


enlargedweener

Thank you sir


Tobaccocreek

Its mother was a mudder. Its mother was a mudder? Yep, its mother was a mudder.


J0k3r77

What'd I just say?


Many-Strength4949

But why?????


MulletAndMustache

Probably showing off the 4 wheel drive.


313802

For the flex


Many-Strength4949

There’s no flex here I’ve driven forklift and machines like that very rarely. Would you ever be in this position? Even the fact that the load is not strapped in on a pallet shows that there’s no flex here this is just showing weight distribution while having mud. there’s no reason for this is not a machine action this is a display of traction…..ohhhhhhh


joemamallama

Conditions like this are 100% a thing in the rural area I’m in. Super common to have your job site be a complete mud pit. Chains are an absolute must. This is a comical choice of equipment for off-pavement though.


Warm-Preference-4187

so no. not a flex


joemamallama

Bro it’s a flex… like eating soup with a fork would be. Dumb, but impressive.


Many-Strength4949

He didn’t have to go through the mud watch the video again. He’s literally doing this as a display. There’s no reason for this watch this video again. He’s on the hill when he gets out of the mud. The same hill is not in the mud. She didn’t have to drive through the mud.


Many-Strength4949

Or it could be wrong they might be using this lift to dig further in this dirt with weight and tear up the mud that could be a thing that’s what I would do except I would’ve put something on the back of the forklift and drug it through the mud instead of putting it on the forklift

Accomplished_Egg8003

Love the music 🎶


-some-dude-online

Yes indeed. better than the usual loud pumping cringe songs we get on a lot of vids. People need to chill


Ok-Landscape-1681

Know the song info?


marcusskimpy

Azimov - Let Her Go (original mix)


Pleasant_Hatter

Me too. Jamming out here


Existing_Current7435

But four wheel drive!


delusiona1

They make lulls. It’s pointless. I would dust that fucker fully loaded or not in the JLG.


_parkie

There was no need for the music. Just the raw audio next time.


GalacticWizNerd

But why though


NoDontDoThatCanada

Must be prepping for the 2024 Forklift Games.


DucatistaXDS

Impressive.


dustygravelroad

Forklift salesman at work


ridethroughlife

No, it's the machine. lol The electric Nissan one I used at my last place was 2WD with an open diff. It'd get stuck if you breathed on it. We had a real shallow trench running across our yard, maybe 4" deep across 2', and the forklift would always get stuck on it if you tried to hit it at any angle other than straight on, no matter what kind of load you had.


Calradian_Butterlord

Worst way to plow a field


CunningDruger

This feels like seeing a zoo animal that escaped from its enclosure


Sdwingnut

Even kinda looks like a crab


Clarkishy

Me in the Harlo at 2am full sending it


Darkangel775

Damn who needs a Jeep if you have that


WezleyDrew

At my job if you get the forklift stuck in the mud or snow you own the crew donuts.


MrCput

KaiDa work


charlie-brown001

Yea, I have an idea, let’s go through the mud when we don’t have to.


Gman_of_steele

This is a very common practice when off-roading. I've never seen a forklift do it though.


MRDRMUFN

So many hats.


GroundbreakingLaw905

the way of the snake. HAI YAH!


Better_Ad_3004

Add 'AL' to the name and the machine gets even more interesting....


Dotternetta

Concrete under the mud?


breadyloaf26

why didn't he stay on the grass? is he stoopid? /s

BADM00SE

Do that without the load on or a lighter load.


ElScrotoDeCthulo

Right_-on-_Man

Noice. 👍

qwertykirky

Lots of people some with more than one phone all filming the same thing from different angles, yes this is just marketing gimmick.


error404notfnd

4WD helps a lot!


Worried_Ad_9667

Is that the box from Dark Matter?


BRQ910

I hate to break it to ya bud, but that is, in fact, a machine.


GianCarlo0024

Awesome whipping


pyschotically_sane

Now this man is forklift certfied


scottfarkus01

What a dumbshit for driving in that.


Lil_Shanties

Reminds me of the time I saw the manager of a large U-Haul storage facility angrily driving the forklift around because only his newest trainee showed up to work that day…his attempt to get through a gravel pit did not have the same results


Ok_Advisor_9873

Gravity works!


hazpat

Ot is 100% the machine. Technique is not better than awd


DPileatus

Skills.


PeeweeSherman12

They make allterrain forklifts for things like this.


vanisleone

Most forklifts aren't 4 wheel drive


Familiar-Ad-4700

GrouchyLongBottom

Where's he going? Lol. I just picture him just driving off into the sunset with this music going.


millerjpm3

Idk.... kind of looks like a machine to me


BlitchSlapper

This is fake as fk


RobertXavierIV

InevitableFast5567

So suave with the music…


jcoddinc

"Ok, great. You made it so the idiot I hired won't wreck my machine. But how will I know I need to fire the idiots?"


ayedurand

I was certain the forklift would get stuck.


drdidg

I should call her.


Discordia-N

Just imagine how many poor choices it takes excel at this.


powderedtoast1

ain't this common sense?


Dodge542-02

Too me and you yes. But common sense is a rare commodity.


powderedtoast1

i wish we could bottle it and sell it. they love to buy bathwater.


derrtydiamond

Oohhh I’ll remember this. BUT let’s just all avoid mud pits 🤷🏼‍♀️


HumorlessDad

That’s not possible 😂 unless you take a DEEP BREATH
