    I didn't do it

    I didn't do this.








    But I know who did.










    The word "Oops." seems appropriate.

    I'm not sure I've ever seen a track-hoe in that, um, attitude. Looks like he himself dug a hole and drove into it.

    A guess on the recovery - the bucket was used to first lift the body, thence tracks chocked with timber to drive it out? If not, how so...

    I've seen a D-9 like that at the last coal mine I worked at...

    Scott,
    I've never heard the word 'track-hoe' before, must be a Texas thing..., the person operating the machine (who absolutely wasn't me) was desilting a pumpsite which is directly below the diesel tank on the levee bank in the bottom photo. Not having a lot of experience in irrigation work, he sat the excavator on an outcrop which *was* behind and to the right of where it is in the pictures. Too much weight too far out on ther boom and the ground gave way. Would've scared the crap out of me.
    Adrian,
    I didn't see him get it out, but if it were me, I woud have sat the bucket on the intake of the pumps and used it to raise the track up out of the silt, screwed it around with track still raised and, using the bucket as a pusher, driven out at right-angles to direction it is now facing.
    Ranger,
    in Gladstone there is an alumina refinery. In nearby Boyne Island there is an aluminum smelter which uses Gladstone's alumina. In between, at low tide, there is about eight k's of mudflats. Some genius decided that rather than put it on a truck and transport it from one to the other, he would just drive a D11 acroos. He got about halfway. Another, equally intelligent, person decided he would get another D11 and tow it out. That was about ten years ago. They're both still there.

    does insurance cover that kind of stupidity? or does the insurance company just say it's not lost or broken, you know where it is...

    Hey Buddy! A track ho is someone who hangs around the racetrack trying to get it on with a driver. J/K. Nice pic :)
    I'm sure that #2 wouldn't apply if one was by one's self :)

    Rat,
    I assume you're talking about the D11s - no, it doesn't.
    Cant,
    cool, still not grown up!
    Sheriff,
    as Grog is my judge.
