  • yeah it's awesome

  • hahaha funny as fuck , the last words from his boss=your fireeeeeeeeed

  • your a faggot....everyone go to 0:59 ....stop stealing videos you fag....hope you like flaggs

  • this is crazy i work at home depot lol OMFG

  • TYT you are as fake as pamela andersons tits

  • @scaposy Lots of people liked her tits. Soooo is this a compliment?

  • love the laugh at 1.15

  • drink driving?

  • "did i do that?" there was a worse forklift accident in ybor city (tampa) florida 2003. he got into a power line and caused about forty million dollars in damage from an ensuing fire that ravaged the construction site and several surrounding buildings including a post office.

  • What's wrong with "drink driving"?

  • @veinknamjenbi nothing,TYT just narrow minded and dont realise not all countries that speak english dont speak the bastardised version that yanks do

  • @YoJimBoHugabaJoe I wouldn't call TYT narrow-minded. On the other hand, you're quite correct; they frequently misspeak on small cultural points. They are, in less fine words, American. They could fix this by hiring a cultural consultant. In the long run, they'd make fewer dumb mistakes and they'd get a lot more repeat viewers in the commonwealth.

  • @veinknamjenbi agreed,i dont even know why i said narrow-minded,it was about 5am when i made the comment :)

  • He TRIIIED to kill him with a forklift!

  • "The Russians don't take a dump, son, without a plan!"

    ---Fred Dalton Thompson, THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER

    Apparently, they DO, Fred! LOL! Oh, you Russian cowboys, you! XD

    0:32 - I also love how the anchor slurred the word "vvvehicle?" Apparently, she tore HER bottle of vvvodka AND HER ENGLISH the fuck up! hahahaha!

  • i think i saw that video on either one of Ray William Johnson's videos or Philip DeFranco's. I think it was Ray's, though.

  • SIIIIIIKTIIIIIIIR

  • alcohol abuse.. tsk tsk tsk (breaking the bottles that is.... :P)

  • I don't know. I'm not an etymologist.

  • This poor guy is catching a lot of heat, but this warehouse is obviously not safe.

  • Artifacts are the bluring, squares or stutters you see in heavily compressed videos. For example, Jpeg images have squares. We call these artifacts.

  • @5ive23

    It looks like an artifact from the compression of the security camera to me.

  • Yep, it's going to be years before this guy ever balances out that kind of waste with his unskilled labor (it would have been skilled, but...). He should be fined for the amount in question and moved to a job where he can't fuck shit up.

  • EPIC FAIL!!!!:) LOOOOOL

  • Alcohol abuse

  • "Drink driving" is the term used in the UK. It's not incorrect.

  • i thought so...i saw a video that also said "drink driving". but seriously, a hundred and a thousand? lmfao

  • whoever put those shelves together seriously bad at there job, the first shelf just barely grazed the other one and booyah they ALL come down, I fell kind of sorry for the guy but oh well you have to take responsiblity for your own actions man

  • ll these people on here saying that the truck would not knock down the racking that truck will weigh around 2.5 tonnes and traveling at the speed he was course it would take the racking down i work in a warehouse and have seen racking bend and twist by the forklift just pushing against it

  • what is that shadow that leaves below the forklift just before it crashes?!?!

  • Looks staged the way the selves on the right side fell over especially, prb an insurance job to a failing company.

  • I was thinking that warehouse shelves are a LOT stronger than that. They are designed to take thousands of pounds of weight and that the steel construction is capable of handling the impact of the forklift ... they have a lot of structural integrity designed into them as well. Not to mention that the boxes of liquor can take a bit of a beating themselves ... I dunno ... I think you might be correct.

  • i bet that guy has know lost his bottle, he wont want to get on another forklift

  • Oh c'omomomomon, if the company had gotten real shelves that were properly anchored to the ground, this would just have cost them a couple of hundred dollars.

  • haSsiktir yalnız o x)

  • Smells fake.

  • DAM !!!!!

  • The image at 00:39 is the shadow of the forklift. There's apparently a source of light more or less at floor level pointed directly at it. The shadow moves because the forklift is passing directly in front of the source of light.

  • The mystery of the moving shadow -.-

  • wtf guys chek out at 39 its a ghost

  • Whats that shadow at 0:39?? it looks like a ghost....

  • what does " whaa-sike-lah" mean ?

  • what does " whaa-sike-lah" mean ?

  • those fork lifts are quick as hell,,, even the big ass monster truck lookin ones,,, i used to drive them...

  • what does " wha-sict-tah" mean ?

  • Lol ive asked it a few times too but havnt gotten an answer, if you find out let me know! lol

  • those shelves sucked dick.

  • employee who's been drinking on the job is the fault of his supervisor...he should observe all employee before he let them work. such a waste

  • Do you know how long it would take to do that?

  • dont know what you mean...

  • it means " WTF"

  • Every one is responsible for his own actions. The employee should have to pay back for all the damage.

  • Are you dense? For one, nobody would ever work those jobs if that was par for the course. Who in their right mind would work a job where you would get fired and then charged 2-3 years pay for one mistake at any given time? If he was being blatantly negligent maybe some punishment should be deserved but it was an accident. Better to write it off as operating expenses, increase their price for one or two runs, and call it a day. It's an expensive luxury good anyway.

  • Being drunk on the job then trying to operate an forklift was a mistake? Riiiight....

  • Except he wasn't drunk. They're just trying to be witty youtube people by suggesting such because of the "pun" of him knocking alcohol over.

  • You'd have to make a pretty big "mistake" to accomplish that. Even if they hadn't mentioned it, I would have assumed he was drunk.

    How do you "accidentally" accelerate into a shelf? Did he forget which petal was the break? Or was he too drunk to remember?

  • Brake... The word is brake. Always check your spelling when you insult another persons integrity or intelligence.

  • I didn't insult his intelligence. I said he was drunk while driving a fork lift.

  • I want a society where stupid people will work whatever jobs they can get or they starve. I like the way I am getting negative scores for suggesting that everyone should be responsible for his own actions.

  • They did that in the last century badger. led to the workhouse. Have a bad day at work have to go to debtors prison to repay it,,,,a form of slavery

  • I don't think this guy would have been so sloppy if he knew he would have to pay for the damage. Anyway, idiots like this are getting off likely if they have to go to the poorhouse to pay for their idiocy. What consequences will this gobshite face for his blatant ineptitude? Not a damn thing, I'll bet.

  • Consequence is he loses his job. What you want him to go to jail far an accident? So if you worked im a museum tripped on a carpet and dropped a priceless vase you would think it fair if you lost your house? I have beeh on countless warehouses all over norht america and have seel those racks get nailed by forklifts before, they should not have come down like that either, So the company now goes after the colleg fund of the mim wage workers who instaslled them too?

  • He lost control of his forklift truck. He is an incompetent buffoon and should have to pay the consequences of his own actions. Why should anyone else shoulder a financial burden for his stupidity? If I trip on a carpet in a museum, it would be partly the fault of the curator for allowing such a carpet to be laid down in a museum. Therefore, I may not be obliged to pay the entire cost of the vase.

  • So if he was incompetent why was he allowed to operate the forklift? Company has to ensure the operater is trained and is properly able to handle the equipment. He'll pay for the accident by losing his job and probally never working in a warehouse again, problem solved. An employer is responsable for the actions of their employee on the jobsite, Cant make some minimum wage worker repay 150000 damages, The company will write the loss off at the end of the year show some mercy dude

  • wow, thats wild...were those guys ok?

  • Wow, 150k. i wonder if he got fired

  • The brew of hell goes to hell. ROFLMHO

  • Cenk, 'drink driving' is English dialect. The figure, I don't know.  I can only assume that's a dialect thing too

  • Its really not the guy's fault. Lets be honest, the company was too cheap to get a bigger warehouse so they don't have to stuff each shelf. Plus those shelfs were like little twigs.

    Moral of the story: Hire an Engineer to plan your warehouse!

  • And this is why news people that get their news only from other news people will always fail...

    TYT, I love you guys 99% of the time.

    This video is OLD. Like 1995 old. It was faked to begin with. I know not a lot of people were online back then, but as somebody who was, take it from me... Funny!, but very faked & very old.

  • This is not new dude, sorry you may be thinking of a differen't video, but definetely a new forklift accident

  • Whoops meant to say "not old dude" guess I might of had a sippy sip

  • daaaaamn, those some weak ass racks.

    look at me ma, i'm drink typing!

  • Can't really blame a Russian for doing the "sippy sip." Being from California, I just assume everything like that is bolted to the wall, you know? Earthquakes. Figure the few bolts it would take to secure those things would have been worth the effort. It've been a bump-n-go if they had.

  • drink driving is the proper way to say it

  • it's drunk driving.. Josh

  • Sippy Sip!

  • I take it they don't say "drunk driving" but drink driving in England?

  • i want a snowmobile

  • since you guys didn't get the MSNBC show, you're going to have to get a new set to spruce up your image. IMAGE IS EVERYTHING.

  • Give the anchor a break.... She's Russian. hahaha

  • she is british ..i guess

  • EPIC FAIL

  • Drunk driving is not the only factor here.

    If the shelves were properly installed, not overloaded, there would have been no domino style collapse.

    Yes, the driver was at fault, but Management must share the blame, because if the goods were not unsafely stacked, then the whole lot would not have collapsed.

  • Yeah, I also think the managemnet are probably laughing all the way to the bank. They were insured and will get a payout. No way did that many bottles break so of course you will say 100,000 dollars. meanwhile you are selling the unbroken bottles out the back door. I would have promoted the guy.

  • Plus the rights to the most AWESOME forklift crash video ever made.

  • ya but it was fricken hilarious.

  • @dangerouslytalented  With the weight of the product it will bring them down like that,We call those drivers IDIOTS

  • @dangerouslytalented gee thanks tips.

    go fuck yourself.

  • Waseekdaaaaaaaaaaa

  • Hope he's in the Union!

  • Fuck Union's!

  • Lol would they really stand up for this kinda blunder heh :)

  • Nothing in the story states that the driver was drunk. So, if he wasnt its pretty clear it was an accident and in that case, yes, the union would defend you.

  • TYT up the volume!

  • Up your own damn volume.

    Bunch of lazy ignoramuses. Hell, if I upped MY volume from normal, Cenk wouldn't be talking to me, he would be SCREAMING to me. |:|

  • Don't blame it on drinking and driving I think he was texting.

  • And now we know why you're not supposed to "operate heavy machinery" when intoxicated :)

  • boo, cenk. "drink driving" is the phrasing in the UK.

  • Video, needs, sound. And the smell in there must have been something.

  • "Drink driving" is the UK version of "Drunk driving". Like lift = elevator, boot = trunk, pissed = drunk, knackered = tired, fag = cigarette, bum = butt, etc. :)

  • @ahotcouple111 ohhhhhhh now I've added something else to my UK dialect

  • @Kingweb08 hahahah you speak bad english we speak english.

  • Drinks are on him!

  • u won everything there is to win, i love you

  • what cruddy shelving to begin with.

  • damm and i thought my screw ups were bad...

  • thats klass lol

    what a waste

  • drink driving is how they say it in the UK

  • i just saw this vid from RayWilliamJohnson

  • When I saw this video, I wept.

  • I loved the caption "under the influence of alcohol" mwahaha

  • fuck it. im goin to buy some pistachios.

  • That other dude in there was probably like, "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT!?"

  • Uh-oh spaghetti-o's!!!!!

  • lol with the Russia Today anchorwoman. English isn't her first language but her pronunciation is great. Her grammar's awkward.

  • I think she's cute. I dunno always loved foreign girls.

  • What kind of shitty-ass shelving units are those?

  • That's what I'm saying.

  • It is Russia =P

  • That was my first thought too..

  • see what happens when you drive your drink around...rather than drunk driving..lol

  • I think those who planned the shelve arrangement might deserve a little blame too.

  • Even a keg smashing teetotaling temperance movement matriarch couldn't do as well.

  • the definition of alcohol abuse!  all that drink wasted

  • Come on skip the politics ! This kicks ass !

  • Drink driving

  • I feel bad for that guy.

  • Maybe the warehouse production design staff won't make knocking into a crate by one person an utter destruction of their product line, next time. This issue is not really how a tipsy worker in an alcohol warehouse knocked over bottles, but the lack of anticipation and management design the production staff had in this situation. I bet they won't make the same mistake again.

  • these companies are filthy rich, it wasnt much of a big loss for them

  • Do not mis-understand, that is nothing! Top level management loses that like its dust on thier suits. Just brush it off. Every American Food Company Warehouse that size tosses out that much food every month from losing the stuff and letting it spoil or dropping it and tossing it. That loss is nothing to be worried about and will not affect the profit of the company at all. Each employee will suffer a $100 dollar loss over the year and at bonus time. It is easily distributed over the employee$.

  • it's hilarious how he turns on the emergency lights at the last second.

  • That warehouse does not look like it was built to any type of building code whatsoever. Or at least those shelves weren't.

  • Exactly what I was thinking!

  • Too bad for the driver - what a screwup! But look at that stock shelf post, it was clearly undersized for the need. The warehouse owner bought light duty shelving, trying to save a little money.

  • u can totally tell....

  • Why are the shelves so fragile anyways? I would expect the shelves to be able to withstand at least a forklift...

  • No OSHA or building codes in Russia? hose shelves looked like they were made of tin.

  • I have a feeling he got fired

  • LOL

  • I need a Little sippitty sip tight about now.

  • whats up with moscow and auto accidents

  • good way to die for a russian - buried under wodka ^^

    first job as a kid i almost rammed a 100k sports car with a forklift ^^

  • LOL, this looks like an accident from Thomas the Tank Engine.

  • Oopsie-doopsie!

    C'mon Cenk!

    I was waiting to hear you say it!

  • "Drink Driving" is the British expression for drunk driving -- that's just the way they say it even when sober. :-)

  • Wall Street made a 700 billion mistake and look what happened. They went to the government for help. No one got mad at them in Wall Street after loosing 700 billion dollars!!!

  • ask the government for a bailout for some sub-prime boxes of wodka ^^

  • OUCH!!!!!

  • Those are some pretty cheap shelves.

  • NNNOOOO!!!! OH THE HUMANITY!!!!!

  • I think video cameras have spurred the Gods of Slapstick to heights of perverse creativity. The sheer amount of Rube Goldbergian disasters great and small caught on camera are far above any statistical probability.

  • maybe it's just that you see them more than before...

  • The British call drunk driving - drink driving

  • Ohhh Cenk, he constantly does that, doesn't he?

  • only 100k was lost? seems like it should have been alot more then that.

  • cmon it just knocked over. 90% of the bottles are probably still intact, and the boxes seem more or less ok.

  • Reminded me of Obamas

    policies caving in.

  • such as?

  • Hahaha...hilarious...you can see the other driver look over his shoulder when he hears the collision..then he gets the fuck out of there.

    Btw, stuff like this happens every day.

  • you missed the word "like" which people use when they are guessing...take the whole sentence not the part that justifies your own views

  • Of course it's guessing. It can't be anything else. It's practically impossible that *every single box* was destroyed. Therefore, it was bad guessing, not worthy of the usual TYT standard.

  • In which case, I fully agree with you.

  • Chances are, every single BOX was destroyed, doesn't say stuff all about the bottles inside.

    But more the point, get over it.

  • "That's probably the worst mistake at work in history, ever." That's a bit of a bold statement.

  • Well, duh!

  • gnarly, dude.

  • OMG! lol :P

  • you stole the idea from raywilliamjohnson! just kidding, you guys are awesome

  • I wonder where raywilliam stole the idea from?

  • your mum lol XD

    the original forklift accident video is among the most popular today anyway, so its not surprising a lot of people are adding the clip to their videoz

  • Great u show the same lame intelegence lvl with him.

  • That wasn't a sippy sip. In the UK they say "drink driving."

  • In Russia vodka drinks you!

  • thats what you get for not investing in better storage materials

  • Exactly, Im a storeman by profession, and that racking should have been made to stand independent of each other.

    This is nothing, I've seen guys ram at full speed onto a steel support pylon (of the warehouse, not racking) and the forklift come out second best, I've also seen guy smash into racking and take out an entire support and the racking continue to stand.

    Pallets stacked with vodka and cognac might've been some heavy shit, but still.

  • Agreed Sel

    This was a structural issue.

  • Pour out a little liquor for the lost liquor.

  • Oh man that is PAINFUL to watch. Being as fond of the drink as i am that almost hurts my soul.

  • My god, that man will never get a job for as long as he lives.

  • lol this happens all the time in warehouses, the only difference being the racking is properly installed and/or constructed and/or not overloaded and pallets are properly stacked.
