The line was low since the hydraulic fluid spray came from a single elevation as the boom collapsed.

I was wondering what that spray was!! I never heard it explained. Thanks.
John Deere large tractor with fork-lift attachment lifted a double row of large outdoor speakers in an array. Lifted way up at least 25 feet- extended up by hydraulic lift. When the hydraulic line was pierced by a bullet— the forklift came down quickly to the end of the extended cylinder and the speakers came halfway in contact with the ground. Almost immediately and very noticeable to the crowd.
When you have as many hydraulic leaks and broken hoses as I do it is a familiar sight. Yeah, a bullet hit it. Freakish but I’d bet a lot on it. The source and angle of direction for that bullet is important.
