  • I don't know what I would of done without this video.

  • thats how they constructed the pyramids

  • @BABMEN LOL That comment should be the best voted. Quite original...!

  • why not just put wheels on the containers themselves? safer for the people working the place

  • What if someone got trapped between two of them heading towards each other? They would be hard to stop...

  • Now i know what is ball bearing floor, cool!

  • Why don't they make this into 1 whole video instead of 50sec clips!

  • 0:18

    I'm tired of this mother-fucking space on this mother-fucking plane!

  • @stagedive516 haha

  • hats off 

  • Is there any place where they sell something like this for companies to use???

  • badass

  • theyre bot actually ball bearings theyre wheels, just thought u should all know that incase u didnt rly notice in the video.

  • @ConnorFergusonRules those wheels are filled with ball bearings ;)

  • bit like ice skating for boxes :) hehe lol

  • HUGE cargo containers, lolol. the A2 is ok size, try and stand in an L9 and you will see how HUGE they are, lol

  • Hello workman's comp!!

  • How fast and easy is UPS? And their BIG BALL bearings...?

  • i didnt see bearings i seen what looked like wheels on the floor

  • tricks like this are ancient.

    think modern man invented that idea? nope, been used before.

    i have seen demos of this done with stone. think stone henge and the pyramids are out of ancient man's league? simple tricks like this were known to ancient man and seem far more likely than aliens.

  • WTF in another segment this same guy says they can weigh up to 2,000 lbs not 4000

  • @papabearfloyed They can weigh a lot more ... I've seen M1 containers (the really big square ones) weigh 6000 or more pounds.

  • awesome.

  • This is probably the same thing the Egyptians used to build the pyramids in such a small amount of time.

  • haha BIg balls

  • 0:50 i want to be the guy who's waching them and is probably like o come on is that all you got =D

  • sounds like you've got DOWNS

  • Roller bearings on the floor.

    They have literally reinvented the wheel!

  • my dad works as an ups aircraft mechanic

    i got to run through there

    its soooo funn.......

  • I hope they secure the containers somehow. It would be bad if they started rolling around during flight

  • they do, dont worry my friend is one of the loaders, makes $35/hour for now , but the plane is always full of containers so they all fit snug in the plane and dont move around

  • 35/hr for a loader huh? where are YOU at? and describe loader... the Main Deck Cargo Machine operator?? or top Deck pusher/designee??

  • same idea as above ground burial. caskets roll on BBs.very simple but works very well.

  • imagine skating on that with jusst a skateboard desk that would be cool

  • That would be insanley cool!!!

  • yeah but what if you caught one and just went wooooosssshhhhhh haha flat on your ass

  • i did with my feet......

    my dad works for ups

  • And only found in Louiville air hub and on UPS planes! LOL forget it if your unlucky enough to not work in one of these hubs as I am not:)

  • cool

  • Does anyone know who is the supplier that builds that floor ball bearing systems?
