You are missing something and it is extremely funny. But, I can't remember what the site is called. It was a bad voice over job on an 80's era video game from Japan. Do a search on "all your base are belong to us" to find out more. This is almost as funny as the Mall Ninja.

Still trying to get the bugs out of the delivery system?

Maybe they should try attaching it to a zig.

Some of you guys would be surprised at how roughly treated things like artillery shells really get. Bombs, I don't know about, but arty shells take a real beating before they leave the tube.

Judging by the condition of the truck cage, I think this is "par for the course," for this fork truck operator.

Well I guess it's time for the resident forklift/aerial lift mechanic to give his 2 cents [:D] - the forklift is an electric model (Hyster E30XL or E35XL), with a nominal 3000lb or 3500lb capacity @ 20" load center. I'd have to say that this truck didn't fall off the loading dock, simply because the bomb and cradle should have been thrown a short distance when the truck hit the ground. Plus, it looks like the left side of the truck is outside the opening for loading dock. My guess is that the guy was travelling backwards after unloading the bomb from a truck or trailer, the load was too heavy for the truck, and the ass end lifted off the ground. This left him unable to steer which is why he went up the wall (braking would have rocked him backwards, until the mass of the bomb tipped him forward again - he should have been carrying it closer to the ground.) You can also see scrape marks from the fork tips (on the asphalt) ahead of the machine, which would lend credence to my theory that the truck was travelling backwards - if it had been going forward the asphalt would be dug up where the forks went in.

I saw an F4C goosed power leaving a revetment causing a bomb trailer dump two 750s on the ground. Everyone but the BB stackers (bomb loaders) scattered for shelter. Da Nang '67.

interesting theory. but how do we know those scrapes arnt from some other stone drunk redneck forklift runner?


the goverment doesnt trust us with guns but they trust that yoyo with bombs?

i suspect your right. besides had that thing really gone nose first over the edge th would have flipped over from the sudden drop. the sheer momentum would have flipped it.

Fork lift dork !! Fork lift Dork!! [;)]

Could this have been a staged photo?  

Is there anyone who knows the EXACT weight of that bomb?

Is it a bomb casing that was damaged in shipping, and loaded with lead weights to make a funny hoax?

Geez !!!

All of you are overreacting,
the guy simply went to lunch.

the thing is If someone takes his lift before he comes back from lunch, he will have to work with a pallet jack...

The high expolsive thingy is simply a way to get people away from his lift while he is at lunch..

anyone that has worked on a dock well know that the real reason behind this.....

I've seen worse.  When the bomblets start trickling out the holes made by the forks, it's time to seek shelter.  

Had a kid working for me who bounced a casket of four AMRAAMs off the forklift.  Missles are much more sensitive than bombs.

Well, I actually prefer rough-terrain aerial lifts - playing around anywhere from 25 to 85 feet in the air is more fun (I didn't have the stones to go all the way up in our 126' boomlift.)[:D]

It sure could have - but one should never think that something was staged when stupidity or carelessness could have caused it instead!

Something I just thought of - aren't the tail and nose sections usually left off of bombs till they're prepped to be hung on the aircraft? If you set all of them up as plain ol' iron bombs, then it just means more work later on if you need retarded or guided bombs and have to switch tail and guidance sections.
