Scissor in the truck

Spotted in Concepción, Chile seven workers a truck, a scissor lift, a loader backhoe and a death wish.

It seems that the men were working on overhead wires and in order to reach them used an old scissor lift on the back of a truck. However the truck is not directly underneath the point of work, so for some bizarre reason that we cannot work out, the lift is extended at an angle and the team has brought in a front end loader to stop it falling over.

We are not sure what is exactly going on here, but it does not look good.

One amusing fact is that like many an anecdote of public sector workers, most are watching the one man work.

There has to be more to this, but on the surface - and well below it - this is one huge Death Wish.
