The best German forklift safety video ever.

It starts kind of slow, but around 3 minutes in a guy gets a box cutter embedded in his scalp and it gets better from there.
WARNING: Contains some comedic blood and dismemberment.

I love that video. I drive forklift, so I've seen it several times.

We had some pretty ridiculous driver's ed videos in school. One featured Robby the Robot who bought pick up then had it stolen. Another was what would happen if you didn't follow safety procedures. The best part was when a character's car (it was cheap cartoon) run into a pole, the driver flew through the front windshield over a picket fence and into a huge fucking boulder at least 30 feet away.

I can't claim to have seen too many German forklift safety videos, but this one is definitely the best.

This just got ridiculously absurd after the knife in the head routine. I don't see how anyone could take it seriously.

It's not an actual safety video, obviously. If you watch to the very end, you'll see it was made with the support of some arts organisations.

It's a funny short movie, made for short movie festivals and the like, and which has found its way onto the web.

Yay! Staplerfahrer Klaus!!!

(If I'm not completely mistaken, that one was made by students of a German movie academy as their final?)

Aw, still hilarious.
Sadly, our driver's safety video was almost that absurd.

Whoever decided the color scheme for that site should be shot and you should be tossed off a bridge for showing it to us.

Well, yes, but unlike here, where even people like me know it, it seems to have been rather undiscovered overseas.

And who is at fault for that? You could have enlightened us much sooner, you know. *pouts*

It's also the worst German forklift video ever because it's the only German forklift video ever.

Clearly driving a fork lift truck is the most dangerous thing one could ever do.

Mmmh. I stand corrected!!!

You know, you could've asked us... *shifts blame*

Dafür würde ich gutes Geld bezahlen. :]
