Info from Licensor: "I was an apprentice electrician working at an ivy league school in New England at the time the video was taken. We were receiving a delivery of 4 and 5 PVC electrical conduits in bundles of about 40. The forklift depicted is carried around on the back of the delivery truck, and as such, it is crucial that it remains lighter than most other forklifts so that the weight capacity of the delivery truck can remain as high as possible for the cargo. The operator was not following basic forklift training/common sense and was carrying the load too high and too quickly, then tried to brake too sharply, and the inertia of the pipes tipped the machine over. He then rights himself, using the tongs of the forklift to do so. My coworker can be heard asking if he's alright and then saying 'thank god for seatbelts, huh?' To which, the operator exclaims 'well it's a 3-wheeled machine' which is comically unrelated to anything that just happened. The machine seemed perfectly functional afterward, and fortunately, no one was hurt."
