Re: China - Excavator Falls From Cliff

read about this on a chinese website forum and many saying there's no one inside and missing the bucket. Remote controlled? Here's the original vid which is a bit clearer, so what ya think?
I bet the excavator is worth 5X what a life in China is worth. What do they pay in China for a railroad passenger accident death, for example?

Surprised the Chi-coms would allow a remote heavy equipment operator, no skin in the game! More likely they would chain the operator to the excavator, like they would chain a machine gun crew to their gun before a battle.

Re: China - Excavator Falls From Cliff

I can't tell if it was operated remotely by the guy on the cliff. There didn't appear to be ANY urgency to GTFO of the cab when it started for the drop off.

Re: China - Excavator Falls From Cliff

That would definitely explain a lot. Esp how it kept driving forward after it slid into that depression and didn't correct accordingly with its tracks slanted torwards the edge.

Re: China - Excavator Falls From Cliff

The guy had some balls. Maybe they cushioned his fall

I would have jumped out that couple seconds before when it was starting to go.

Re: China - Excavator Falls From Cliff

Are the Chinese morons or do they just seem to have bad luck with heavy machinery?
