Found this a few minutes ago when I visited the site for a local radio station, and thought somebody else might like a good laugh. Or at least a *little* chuckle :)

Why I Got Fired

Question on the first one: How the heck could you roll one of those over??

Good show! Never ceases to amaze me, how much trouble people driving large vehicles can get into! ;)

Heh-heh...I've seen things like #6...up close and personal. (no, not my crane, but I've had to upright them before.)

#8 also looks sort of familiar...

#13 is actually fairly common in the big mines. That truck hauls about 200 tons of ore.

#21 is also relatively common. People park in the stupidest of places...

lol wow, I'm sure some people got in trouble for those. :p Fired so hard it hurts.

The container ship ones are the worse. I would not be surprised if one single container could be worth near 1 billion, depending on what is in it. (ex: all electronics heading to the US or something)

I loved 11 & 12: Boats don't float very well on dry land (#11), but #12 isn't quite the right way to do it, either :p

I want to know how that steam roller rolled.

First it started rolling over, then it rolled over.

:confused:

explain it a bit further please ;)

In sports term, it got on a roll, then it was upset.

#10 is funny...I bet that forklift driver's eyes were as big as basketballs when he was going over...

I'm more curious about how those dry-docked ( ;) ) ships stay upright...they look like they should roll to one side or the other as soon as the water gets low enough.
