I would bet this was from outside the EU and US, some call it dumb to others it is the ingenuity of man.

There were genius to think of this if it works. If it does not work and the damage the equipment, forklifts or kill someone (in that order of importance in some countries) they are dumb, fired an/or dead

Default Amazing
This is the first time seeing some one pick up a forklift to pick up an object to place on a higher level. I can't think of one positive thing to say to remark about that picture other then I doubt they are working in the U.S.A and as far as the electrician on a metal ladder in a pool working on the lighting fixture...I have no reply other then to say maybe I should have stayed at my old job selling life insurance. Seriously, at what time in their lives did this make sense? The safety issues are all over the place and god forbid if anyone got hurt during this time I can't even think that a single person who was there would keep their job! These are the pictures they should hand out at safety meetings when they are talking out the " DO NOT's " of safety.

Okay, I was only joking, this was an attempt at a little humor which is hard too do on the internet. Sorry to all my fellow electricians in Florida if this offended you.
