Front End Loader Backs Over Man
Those are super heavy, averaging around 20,000 lbs (10 tons). He's lucky to not be dead.

Re: Front End Loader Backs Over Man
He probably didn't hear it come closer as these 10 ton heavy machinery have such quiet engines   |

Re: Front End Loader Backs Over Man
There's almost no way the operator could have seen him either. Another instance of someone getting a little too comfortable around heavy machinery. |

Re: Front End Loader Backs Over Man
Pick him up and send him on his way.... it's not like you ran over him with a loader with a full bucket.... them tires are soft!  |

Re: Front End Loader Backs Over Man
If only these silent machines made some kind of annoying noise when they were driven in reverse. Perhaps a loud, high pitched beep or something?  |

Re: Front End Loader Backs Over Man
Bucket full of sand took a lot of weight off the back wheels, had the front wheels run over him it would have been guts everywhere .
