If you try it the opposite way, your lead foot quickly becomes your back foot & you end up tripping over your own leg. Ditto, it was like the slowmo Jesus bowling pitch scene in the Big Lebowski where he does the perfect rearleg crossover to maintain balance and form. Industrial ballet.

Wirth1000 posted:What in the gently caress... I've never seen anything like this in my life. I thought all cement trucks were rear discharge??? They used to be, but FD trucks are the new(er) poo poo. They're a bit more expensive but can get into place faster since you can just drive directly up to the dump location without guidance and they have chutes that can be positioned by the driver via hydraulic controls. This makes it more efficient in both loads-per-day gained and by elimination of the need for a 'chute man' (since the driver can do the whole job via line-of-sight).

Weird, I never really thought about it since I've only lived in places with both styles, and I thought it was the same everywhere but after some snooping around it looks like that's totally not the case. Some cursory research suggests that the differences by region could have to do with A.)piecemeal state-based regulations for weight classes/restrictions for bridges and roads (frontal trucks can carry an extra couple yards and require another axle), B.)union influence since frontal trucks would eliminate the need for a whole lot of crew, or C.) a combination of the two. Huh.

OMG I see it-- the 'wall' to the right is the steel panel he's originally standing on; it flips up and moves left, with its ground pivot point near where he is. There's a huge excavator off-camera to the right (you can see the bucket moving center left in the beginning). The secondary pillar collapse thing (middle front, orange) is the back of the excavator's body having fallen on its left side, and the left tread is visible. E: Wait, the excavator fell from a higher level, maybe? This is annoying. E2: Ground lifts first, though. I'm going to guess a gas main explosion or something that lifted the whole thing up and moved the plates, with the excavator falling back down a split second later.

I forgot a lunch thermos full of shrimp curry chowder in an easy-to-overlook corner of my detached garage once. Three weeks later I walked in to an ungodly stench and was overcome with waves of nausea, which was exacerbated by a drip falling on my collar. The concoction had fermented and built up enough pressure to blow the screwed-on lid and cup off the thermos into the rafters and left a drizzling fallout of the mixture on an unsuspecting me and I promptly ran to the yard and puked myself inside out. Rotted shellfish (mixed with dairy, to be fair) is like nothing else in the world.

CannonFodder posted:If someone I didn't know jumped on my truck and started punching the windshield I would try to shake him off in much the same fashion. I'm defending myself from the crazy person who started it all. I would try to avoid running over him if I shook him off but I am not going to just sit around while he tries to enter the cab, I have no idea what he's capable of. I would be calling 911 at the same time of course and maybe he would stop when the cops show up. The driver was in a situation where any action other than stopping immediately puts another human in immediate mortal risk, and he was repeatedly trying to make that WORSE by accelerating to highway speeds and trying to shake off a half-naked weirdo onto a busy highway or, just as likely, under his own wheels. If the driver feels like he's in danger from the tiny terrified half-naked filipino man on the hood of his huge locked metal box, he's a tremendous pussy. gently caress that driver.
