"Do as I say, not as I do!!!"



(11 March 2000, Perth, Australia) It just stands to reason, one should follow safe practices while filming a safety video. But Peter, the 52-year-old owner of a machinery and equipment training school, violated that rule of common sense while filming a forklift safety demonstration. With the cameras rolling, he was thrown from the cabin of his forklift and crushed.

Subsequent investigation revealed the culprits responsible for the fatality: driver error and high speed over varied terrain, coupled with an unused seat belt.

His final safety demonstration was the most convincing of his career.

Oh man. That's classic: The Gene Pool Lifeguard was on the job that day, eh?
