Video: This excavator is not an amusement park ride

Here’s the most terrifyingly stupid thing circulating online today: A man dangling from an excavator bucket like it’s a fairground tilt-a-whirl.

The video, by no means new to the Internet, was reportedly taken in West Vancouver a few years ago. (The trees look about right for that location.) Its not-so-safe creators explained the video by saying, “Fun at work one day.”

Please don’t ever try this at home — or anywhere else. It kind of gives a whole new meaning to the phrase “not safe for work.”
