Thats nothing.I reversed a ford transit into a harria jump jet while doing delliverys at fairford for the air show a few years back.

I also shut the M4 between junction 15/16 after 2 24ft staggings ripped the tipper bed of the hire van i was driving for the same hire company.
The po po were about to through the book at me then found the ratched strap still done up with the van bed atached to it.
I was let off and Rygor vans (hire company) took the blame for an unfit van lol

cool.
Have you ever worked in the tool hire trade ?
The reason i ask as the funnest thing ever is sitting on a petrol concrete planner and then open up the throttle and try to stay on.
If your unsure what one is its like the ones cleaners use to buff the school floors up but petrol powered and you can fold the handle over then sit on it.
oh the good old days lol.

I was on for the Highways when I was drag racing cherry pickers lol only one of the lanes was actually closed at the time lol lol

Cherry pickers are a right laugh when you would take the customer up in it to show them how the controlls worked.Once all booms were fully extended drop the main boom backwards as it leaves your stomach still up there.
shocked a few with that one then say sorry i hit the wrong leaver lol.

heh me and my trainee got the Met police helicopter out as the London City airport thought we was joy riding a cherry picker haha!!

it was Massive so we raised it over the water just incase it fell over so it wouldnt hurt as much lol :tard: 12 floors up :d

Then later that day we went to park the cherrp picker and my mate was chatting away to me flat out in rabbit mode hit a speed bump, the bucket hit the floor the catpulted both of us out the basket lol, it burst the hydralics and then broke a barrier heh fun day!!!


on another site, i thought it would be a good idea to strap his harness to the basket and raise the cherry picker up.. then i decided spin him fast as i could man did he go white!
