My forklift skills are respectable. This kid knew the stakes when he tried holding the 2,000lbs pallet up, and should have had better survival instincts (dive out the way), instead of thinking he could hold the pallet up when it started to lean.

The pallet was double stacked on another pallet due to a lack of space caused by a work related war between two of the managers. The pallet that fell on him was leaned hard and he couldn't get the forks under it, so he called me to come and help him. He had the bright idea of pushing the bags to even out the pallet, when I pulled the forks out (which he had previously stuck there) the weight the forks were holding caused the pallet to tilt. There was time to jump out of the way, when I yelled, 'MOVE! MOVE!' He apparently thought he could hold it up? I don't know, because he's dead (not really... yet).
