I believe the whole Weltanschauung of YouTube is that WHY? is irrelevant.
#7 bobbo How about this?

Personally, I would despair if I outgrew heavy machinery.
They couldn’t make two of these and make it a race? How un-American!
Hey honey, wanna go to the Tractor Pull-up tonight? Let me go put on my Liebherr jacket, cap and t-shirt on. I love Hans Jr. #8.
Well, there’s nine minutes of my life I’ll never get back.
Hope someone makes this tower in “Rigs of Rods”
(An open-source freeware truck/crane sim)
I love lifting a container thats way to heavy
using the default mobile crane , and tipping
over, then wrenching myself back upright using
the crane arm.
How many of you were kinda hoping for a Darwin Award ending ?
This may be the best thing i have I have never scene
.
Wait, they had the crane there, why didn’t they just lift the back hoe with that?
And the dude wore no safety helmet?
Well sure, if the thing fell over he’d be pretty much just a pile of human casserole, but at least if he was wearing a helmet his wife might at least have been able to take one last look at the top of hi head before they scooped him into the casket.
The moral of this story is: Definitely do not EVER put full blown AI in construction equipment.

Ah, the power of hydraulics!
“Wetten Das” = “Bet (or wager) that”.
I loved to watch that show when I lived over there. One guy demonstrated how he could identify different pianos by maker by tone and vibration. Another time a bunch of people balanced a wheeled backhoe on top of four beer glasses. Wild shit. They have fails, too. Once a soccer ref said he could ID famous soccer players by their legs and failed miserably (it was funny to watch, tho).
I want to see him come down.
If the 1997 copyright notice is correct, nothing cooler could be found more recent?
I don’t know what the point of that was. But then again I don’t see ANY point in watching American Idol either. (Maybe if your a white-collar box-worker/lemming you might “get it”).
I suppose if there’s a lesson here it’s that the Germans still know how to DO things however pointless they may be. Meanwhile, America seems to continue to just tune up their vocal cords for singing and bitching! Kind of makes me embarrassed to be an American. How about YOU? (We seem to be all talk and no walk – unlike the Germans/Austrians-or-whatever.)
