Certainly some fabulous failures here. WOW can we imagine for a moment the cost of some of these fails! Totally inadequate shelving, not so good forklift drivers and so many seem to feel that the situation they are in is amusing!
Attempts at saving by cheaping out on quality shelves, proper equipment and staff training. Result : LOOSE at least 1000 times the cost of proper shelves, equipment and training in destructed stock in seconds, plus the cleanup cost, plus rebuilding everything.
Yes, and so many things wrong in that scene. Goods filling the corridor, too many people in too small space, no one person in charge, fork trolley moving behind someone, 2 moves at once with forks,... Like it's a training video how not to do it.
Looks like someone WANTED to have something catastrophic happening. There must be NOTHING left between those shelves. WAY to many peoples present. Heavy things packed to high on the top shelves. And more.
I worked in factory, that made assorted spices, spice mixes and dry cooking sauces. They also made the KFC stuff. They had warehousing like these. Never saw them feck up like this.
It seems like there is a gap in institutional memory in some of these storage situations: no memory or knowledge of predictable failures of inadequate storage methods. Well, lessons to be learned again!
😮 The guy with the forklift should have backed out just a little bit and bring his load down right away. Acosta things going to tip over so high up. It shifted the whole thing over and then it fell over to the right.
1:30 Someone forget that heavy things MUST go to the BOTTOM shelves or the floor, and ONLY the lighter stuff can go to the top shelves. Also, those shelves are way to high for the equipment used. 3:00 Very badly constructed cheap shelving system intended for a MUCH lighter load resulting in the destruction of at least 100 times the «saving» worth of production. 9:00 Right way : Take ONLY ONE of those palet at a time. WRONG way : Take more than a single one. Idiot wanted to save some time, ends up loosing time and destroying stock. Common theme : Stuff stacked to high, inadequate shelving, overloaded shelves, inadequate equipment, poor or NO training, simple incompetence, NO safety training.
This compilation is a wild ride! Those warehouse fails really show how quickly things can go sideways. Definitely a lesson for everyone working in those environments! 😄
16:52 to 16:59 That had to be made like that, because they don't just curl up like that. The engineering of the machine won't allow it, for starters. Other attached components would've snapped or folded in the process. Secondly, those forks are extremely hard, even to just drill a hole in it is challenging. I know this because I used to build them and perform maintenance on them.
I saw it happen once. Driver was going flat out across the yard and hit a drain cover. Drain was ripped out of the yard, (220kg of cast iron) forklift was seriously damaged. driver lost 6 teeth and got knocked out when hitting mast after flying through windscreen.
@@jessh5310 The lift may have been damaged, but the fork won't curl. Bend maybe, but not curl. Not without some serious heat first. Cast metals will crumble under the strength of the forks. If it DID curl, it would curl under and not over.
@@neolithicnobody8184 I recently had training on electric pallet movers, the course included videos with forklifts, among them was a scene like this, the trainer admitted he had no idea how it happened, let alone how the operator could claim to walk away from it completely unharmed, said he was going there soon and intended to collect the fork as a museum piece to display in his office or something.
You would think you'd see a bend facing downward. Like if you don't quite pull out all the way and then only have a little bit of the pallet or whatever so all the weight is at the tip of the forks. Which would more than likely flip the forks. Or maybe if something fell on them, again probably flipping the forks...but never ever bending a fork that far and that extreme. I can't think of a good reason to have bent forks like that, but it has to have been made like that or bent like that on purpose. The other fork was perfect, it's not like the fork tipped forward which may bend a fork up a little bit. But there's no way the truck would be heavy enough for that bend and certainly not powerful enough to hit something that hard to cause that much bend.
We had an idiot who had another idiot standing on the forks of the forklift. The forklift was at full extension. About 20 feet high and the operator was trying to shake the other guy off of the forks while driving around the warehouse. His name was Norm and should have been fired long ago. Liabilities like him are what can destroy a business.
17:52 Also the reason you report any and all incidents where you might have damaged shelving units with a forklift or electric pallet movers, same thing can happen even with the best quality shelves.
😮 That's what you call a backhoe with a bucket and the front part's the loader. He should have had the front of it down. If he wanted to go up with it can always put it up after. Must have had too much weight on it and it tipped it over.
@@simontay4851 But he's so focused on where his forks are going as he lines up on a pallet. Makes me wish we had the video leading up to this, was he moving pallets from the stack and something gave in the stack just before that clip. Or where they already leaning before he even started.
4:30 is a perfect example of not following training. You are supposed to turn and back up slowly till the pallet is free of the racking and then lower it to where the pallet is slightly above the wheels. About 2 inches or so. Traveling with a load high in the air will result in tipping and possibly injury and/or death. The front of these for transporting purposes is the opposite side of the load as well incase the pallet is stacked over what you can see.
😮 The guy that sat in a chair and his chair hit the things going over like a domino effect. They should have had a wall there and you got to walk behind the wall to get to the merchandise. Not like that. That's not good. That's not a good idea thank you.
It's funny but at the same time annoying re all the waste of goods due to BAD management/storage. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to see this but when people cut corners to save a few $ and don't know what they are doing, then this happens. People could get hurt. And this adds on to our prices in the shops too to cover for the incompetence!
I just looked at the guy look like he had toilets stacked on wooden shelves. They should have been made out of solid steel and they wouldn't collapse like that boy. He lost a lot of money on that one with all the damage and they broke into a big pile.
Nobody knows where fire, water shut off is? It’s often well labeled. Who would load +500 lb pallets 4th shelf high? Speed kills. I have never received real forklift training. I can do it, but I will be slow. Only damage was when I trusted the spotter. “Am I clear on side? I can’t see that edge?” “Hang on a second, yep you have room” I go 3” screech. “Stop you are hitting”
I was in one of those soda can warehouse where that very thing happened. The forklift driver cut the corner too short and caught the stack. Just like here they all fell over and went everywhere I laughed so hard I think I peed a little.
I don't know why these workers laugh when they screw up. In our warehouse, mistakes were absolutely not allowed. Our record was stellar. A mistake from a rookie immediately caused dismissal. Our training of the whole plant population was mandatory and all were expected to pass 100%. Just one mistake could cost you your job, period!
Makes me so glad I don't work any more. Don't have to be responsible for anything going wrong. And everywhere is so covered with cameras that there's nowhere to hide.
While these videos may seem funny, if I caught or saw any of my staff messing around in the warehouse, they would be fired on the spot. Had someone been seriously injured or worse and the insurance company review the CCTV footage, they would likely not pay out any claim due to breaches of occupational health and safety. Those forklift incompetents would be the first to go. Absolute stupidity and costs time and money to clean up the mess. Not to mention the damages.
Some unsafe working conditions there. Space for forklift in between shelving is too narrow. Many trucks with a liftgate have safety barriers to prevent loads rolling off. Nice to see them being used.
4:29 Don't know if the guy is new or just forgot to stop and lower the pallet down once it was cleared of any objects before moving again. Watching this video segment, for the life of me, I don't get why people are placing heavy loads at the very top of some of these shelves. Unsafe practices. All see a lot of supervisors or managers who shouldn't be in their positions.
Ok, I never comment on these, but I'm a forklift driver. Why in the f would you drive with your forks fully deployed a heavy load and drive around just stupid...
Great explore, very respectful……👍, very interesting, think family if any will turn up at some point, or not which would be shame as it will likely get ransacked or vandalised…
Bent fork I wonder what hospital he went to, I went to a job site to check a fork lift that they told me the service call was for a leaking transmission, I walked in and noticed broken rollers from the mast laying on the floor in different places and I asked them which hospital they sent the operator to once they told me, it was wonderful to see the lights come on in their brains that they had just told me that they had caused the problem and it was about a 10k repair.
How is it even possible to bend a fork that extreme? Especially in that direction? A fall forward wouldn't even be enough weight from a big ass truck to bend a fork that far? I can't think of any reason to design a fork like that but I just can't come up with any idea how that could happen. Especially bent that way, I could see one bent downwards from something falling on it (likely tipping the forks) or from a pallet or whatever your carrying being at the very tip of the fork (also likely tipping the forks) but bent up, especially that far, makes no sense to me.
Some of these warehouses are stacked up far too high. They're insanely dangerous.
And it looks like just pallets on top of pallets right up to the roof. No pallets racks, nothing.
Stupidity.

Add to that, a few of these were either excessive snow load on the roof causing a roof collapse, or an apparent earthquake/tornado.
