Mad, mad props to my buddy who scouted this out for me. Click here for a German instructional movie on safe forklift operation. Why would I post this? Because it's easily one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Warning: has a violence content similar to Kill Bill Vol 1. Don't say I didn't tell ya. Best with sound on, despite the language barrier.

Doesn't work on mine. Am I the only one who read the thread title and was reminded of South Park: BLU? "Mom, if you were in a German forklift video...you'd tell me, right?"

That was hilarious!!! I need to upload a few forklift safety stills I have... some of the real-life stuff was almost as horrific...

Actually, one of the funny things about it for me personally is that I *can* drive a forklift (I'm the only guy in my office who's certified), so I can see it all coming... brrr.
But still. Hee!

Hahaha the movie is more like Monty Python than Kill Bill, in my opinion. Who knew forklifts could be so evil?

Reminds me of a German version of the Monty Python sketch Salad Days, where everyone's body parts keep falling off. Good stuff man. Very good stuff.

Makes that occupational safety training MUCH more fun.
Seriously. Have you seen how BAD those videos are?

Hallo Komrade Pool!
I gather you got that one from the Victorious one? We saw it at the office on Friday, the laughter was abundant. As for the last pic I'm surprised the driver took the time to hang up his helmet. I would have just plain bolted.

Yup, Victorious sent it on to me. I was extremely grateful. I'm doing my best to send it to everyone I know who might actually find it funny.

I just started a job which involves forklifts. Now I'm chuckling to myself all day and everyone thinks I'm a psycho. Thanks Poolman!

It's my duty to make those around me look crazy. I rarely succeed, though.

Of course, they may think I'm psycho for entirely different reasons. The fact that it's a night shift and I'm usually a walking zombie because of that might have something to do with it.
