Brilliant, it took me a few moments to work out what he was trying to load onto the truck.

a) why was unloading so much easier than loading?
b) I wonder how many times they tried it before the final cut
c) it was a good thing that the lorry driver remembered to put the brakes on...!

a) The target was bigger and a somewhat less critical - a bit like getting undressed after a good night out.
b) Probably less times than you needed to preview your post.
c) I think, with air brakes, they are on by default. You have to have the engine running to drive the compressor to ruin a good video.

OK, so the attachment is specially made and the tower too, but this is still very impressive. If you look closely during the first manoeuvre you will see some madman walk underneath the digger!!
