  • Yeah, but what about a loaded forklift? Few years ago an electric pallet jack ran over my feet and the steel toe deformed slicing the skin from my toes. Still not completely sold.

  • The guys in my shop always perpetuated the myth that a forklift would cut off their toes if it ran over their foot. Using the rated crush factor and simple math, I calculated the weight per square inch of the forklift tire vs. sq inch of the steel toe (this case was 200 lbs/sq. in.) and then proved to them with a test just like this one you did that the myth was just urban legend. Thanks for uploading a video showing the banana survived!
