This really is worth watching, if only as a lesson in health and safety at work. It looks like a normal, peaceful working day in a warehouse. And then utter mayhem breaks loose. Unbelievable.
Some points:
- The two warehouse guys under those boxes (which are full of cognac and whisky) seemed to have been inside their strengthened forklift cockpits when all collapsed, so one suspects they were relatively unscathed (though no notes on the clip state what happened to the poor fellows).
- The forklifts are petrol or diesel-fuelled which probably adds to the power with which one of them hits the racking structure. Battery powered forklifts probably wouldn't do as much damage.
- The racking structure does not appear to be fixed to the ground or attached to the roof, which may account for the "easy" way the whole thing collapses like a house of cards.
