I wonder how well it would've fared had they found tires the right size to fill the inside.

Couldn't they have made a ramp? unless that's a weird truck which is missing basic features, that little gray rectangle below those two guys' feet is literally a ramp built into the truck Granted, having a huge concrete cylinder which is presumably hard to control barrel down a long truck ramp might still break it, but we're talking like 50/50 instead of 100/0

Work's been too busy for me to hunt down more crazy Brazilian truck videos, but i did come across this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7LV_id1swY Dude's being facetious in the voice over, but I've seen that same rationale used, in earnest, in actual wiring work.

Such tiny rear end tires couldn't possibly cushion the drop fast enough and it'd still impact the ground. It's pure concrete with no rebar. It would've shattered with the first freeze/thaw cycle anyway. No waterproofing, no attachment points... it was pretty much destined to become rubble at a moment's notice.

Little problem at the power feeder for a factory. Very pretty when it's blasting molten copper everywhere. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=b36_1361303716 For the full effect, turn your volume all the way up. Found this one too. 69,000 volt transmission line plus apparent untreated mental illness is one hell of a bad combination.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zr3N2dSEEVM    He survived!

The only thing I can think of that might have allowed him to live would be the path of least resistance moving quickly over into the plasma channel of the arc and away from his body. Even then, no matter how brief the initial jolt was, that had to be one hell of a flash. The camera just goes white.

It's at night too, so the camera is trying to amplify light as much as it can, so that probably doesn't help. The light show was much more spectacular than the "one man one pantograph wire" video.

Pallets don't usually have solid wood 4x4 beams under them so I'd say it's a special type of pallet for just such an occasion. You see poo poo lifted like this with loose wood beams and railroad ties all the time.

As another poster said, those are solid wood 4 x 4 beams. They basically jack it up using synchronized hydraulic jacks (at least when done raising houses off the foundation) a layer at a time. They'll move it up around a foot, put in another layer of wood, lower it down, reset the jacks and repeat. It probably took them all day to get from the ground to that loading door.

Purpose made wood supports. Even if they were palletes, wood had ridiculous compressive strength. They use these same type of supports for ship dry-docks, to support everything from tiny tugs to fuckoff huge ships.
