Any Rachel Corrie repeats?
Bulldozer Operators celebrate with Pancake Breakfast!
Rachel Corrie was NOT run over by a bulldozer. She was perched on a rubble pile, lost her purchase and tumbled into the blade. She appeared to have a bloody nose and maybe a concussion at the scene. IDF medical personnel on site offered medical assistance which she declined.
She was taken to a Palestinian hospital, where she soon “succumbed to her injuries”, exhibiting a Frankenstein set of stitches on her face, that seemed unrelated to the minor injury she had sustained at the site.
The lesson should be: Never entrust you life to people to whom you are worth more dead than alive.
They’re widening the road in front of where I work. The earthmoving equipment is amazing (excavators, dozers, off-road trucks). Motors are almost silent. Excavator bucket can be very precisely controlled. No delay changing from one motion to another. Tons of power.
I remember when the operators would have to back off of their pushing or digging to keep from killing the motors.
thats how to handle it
I approve of this message.
Makes me giggle a bit.
