I'd say it the other way, really...the bride fared poorly, all things considered.

That arm seems REALLY oversized, though. Unless they were excavating goose down, wouldn't it overbalance at anywhere near full extension?

according to Hyundais Site, the largest arm possible on that specific hoe is 12'... ive been around 9'3" arms (John Deere 200lc) and they are NO WHERE near that size when upright, nothing near that at all (i washed them multiple times) i dont know what size arm that is, im guessing 15'.

Say you're flying down I-70 through western Kansas hauling a trackhoe on your flatbed trailer. You don't bother checking clearance heights and you hit a highway overpass. Guess who won?

I guessed wrong.
 
the backhoe is also loaded backwards... you always load it with the bucket to the back... prolly so ****** like this doesnt happen,

well it almost looks like it caught an inch and the speed and velocity forced it to extend, probably breaking all the hydraulic cylinders and then some.

I'm thinking the driver is not to blame but the guy who loaded him up.

typically in these situations, the driver loads himself up, they always know how to operate the equipment.

and it is ALWAYS the drivers responsibility to make sure their load is safe for the roads.

OK, the truck driver had to of been stoned. I can understand if he missed judged by a foot or so, but not 10 freaking feet.
maybe you're stoned...

1) had to have been
2) misjudged

so you can save yourself if you ever use those phrases in a professional setting. 😀
 
We had a WM bin truck (the one's that empty the bins that lift from the sides), take out a pedestrian overpass. Apparently the forks came up while he was driving, hit the overpass, and the whole thing (from upright to upright), came down onto the cab of the truck.
 
lol! I agree with LookingGlass, make him pay for being stupid.

BTW Micky, think Wooldrige's (sp) gone after this year? State can't seem to win a close game for their life (see Texas game)!
