Lots of fake gore in this so watch at your own risk.
This video is comedy gold, nice find
Omg that video, my coworkers made me watch it when I first learned to use a forklift
It might be that they are machinery that moves heavy things, so our brain makes the association with heavy machinery.
Forklifts are heavy themselves, even the small ones weight as much or more as a sedan and way up. It is quite literally heavy machinery.
Very car-brained to not consider a car heavy machinery.
Man I thought I was orange-pilled but I'm definitely in the second category here. Always thought "heavy machinery" was like construction equipment.
My doctor always told me "Nothing more dangerous than a string trimmer"
I've had this conversation with more than one girlfriend, typically talking about the conflict between having a migraine, taking medication to not hurt and the boss wants her at work pronto (45 minute commute by car).
(I'm sick -- and infectious -- and too nauseous to walk without meds) + (boss wants me at my station) is also an expression that has seen action from time to time.
Imagine going to work with a migraine.
Being surrounded by Americans online really makes me appreciate German employee protection laws.
Wait you don’t have to go to work sick in other countries?
Wait until you find out about European minimum vacation day laws.
As someone who operates heavy machinery for a living and takes medication that says to "use care" when operating machinery: it's basically a see how it affects you thing.

most self-aware driver
I always thought of an excavator lol
To be fair, a civic del sol is a step away from being a mountain bike with extra wheels and doors, so I recommend that it be exempted from the “heavy machinery” category.
Sure, if you’re comfortable lying under 1,100kg.
Assuming a mass of about 1100kg and a maximum speed of 53m/s, this car carries as much energy as an explosion of about 370 grams of TNT equivalent. This is nowhere near the energy a pedestrian would receive in a collision, but impressive nonetheless.

I’ve sat under much more than that, but I was in a vehicle moving through a tunnel. The seats were comfortable enough.
Driving a forklift on cough syrup is so much fun though
OSHA Inspector - "Can I get your name again, real quick?"
John.
…
Smith.
John Smith, 1882?
Yep. All because Bart tried to resurrect Snowball I.
My name's not "Real Quick..."
I’m in the same category. I know it’s about cars, but I picture a forklift. What is it about forklifts that forces this association?
Maybe the safety video Forklift Driver Klaus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psAWGv5O7Zs
