This was put on YouTube Friday. A loader bucket is bad enough but a grapple? It's a rental and by his other video he does not have much experience running it.

Want be long before another safety switch will appear. One that you have to hold to confirm you have no children in the grapple.

Unfortunately, there are alot of folks that simply shouldn't be allowed to have children.

Yeah, for as many qualifications as there are for everything in life, guess what you need to have kids?

What if one of the kids had their ankle or foot under the bucket when the operated dropped the bucket? It appeared that this was very close to happening. It also appeared that the two children, were asking the operator to let them down, after raising the bucket farther up in the air. Just a thought? Perhaps the operator should start taking estrogen supplements when his testosterone levels rise, and he feels that he needs to be a man and endanger the safety of children in the future, by demonstrating this stupid and dangerous act on You Tube. He probably called all his friends and asked them to view his video in order to show everyone that he is a skilled operator. The individual that videoed the entire scene should be chastised also.

I just read another thread here on TBN that tells of a 3 year old boy that was killed after falling out of a bucket on a skid steer operated by his 7 year old Brother. This is a recent thread.

That, my friends, is video proof that complete morons exist...

Here is a thread currently on TBN that "All's well that ends well" doesn't apply. The thread is "3 year old dies in farm incident"....BMod

Merely getting out of bed in the morning can be hazardous to one's health... I'm glad I don't see a bogeyman behind every tree!
