    I've been in equipment when:
    - Tractor Rolled
    - Dump truck gate didn't open and I went for a sky view ride!

    It is not always fun, but after you're safe its kind of awesome!

    Wonder if after the fall they retracted the stabilizer arms? Surely they had those out, or maybe that played into it falling (by not):confused:

    Cranes I've worked with you can't retract the outriggers until the boom has been locked into place.

    Ha ha probably one of the safest ways to do tree work above 100'. I've only been crane tethered twice. It was neat enough.

    We had a fat kid ask us once in Yosemite if the top of Half Dome had a snack bar. I don't think he made it past Vernal Falls. I've also seen people in dressy shoes on rock trails. They think it's a walk in the park.

    What an idiot. Does he not know how radio waves and radiation works? He gets more radiation from THE SUN than he does through radio waves. Just don't stand within the transmission path of anything pushing greater than 5 watts - that can be bad for your nuts, kidneys, and eyes.

    As a government employee, I can assure you we have the software to unscramble your voice. We're on our way.

    As for chemtrails...:facepalm:
