This is the best forklift training video I have seen:

Who says germans don't have a sense of humor (OK my austrian friends do, but you know those austrians...)


My old university prof used to say: "How many Germans do you need to change a lightbulb? One, because we are efficient and don't have time for humor." (German university + German prof)

Yeah, the Austrians are saying that, but here in Germany we say the same about them.


Austrians are the world's sneakiest bastards:

They managed to convince people that Beethoven was Austrian, and Hitler German.


The factory where anything that could go wrong does go wrong.


"Although the film is not officially part of the German training and education system for forklift trucks, it is frequently shown by instructors to lighten the mood."

I was born in the wrong country.


I know I would be an impeccably safe forklift operator after watching Klaus' training video. :)


This is amazing. Both a good forklift training video and a hilarious award winning short film!

Thank you.


Thank you for sharing a treasure I somehow missed until today. Would enjoy this style applied to other safety videos!


Oh wow - it just gets more and more gory! Hilarious.


Thank you for this.
