Context for the name: In german a forklift is called Gabelstapler literally translated "fork stacker". So the Stapler part of the name is derived from that and it would be roughly translated as stackers cup *flies away*

Same, I worked as a cargo delivery driver in the early 90s and I saw people do crazy stuff. I remember that guy whose forklift actually never came to a full stop, everything was just one fluid motion without hitting or dropping stuff.

[@picklesoncucumber4614]

Imagine one of those guys as a Surgeon. Nobody's dying ever again.

[@Jonathan.D]

We needed someone like that when I worked at the airport for Delta. My first week there I opened my truck door when all of sudden the shift lead came driving the forklift backward at full speed and tore the door off of it. Thankfully, it was the truck used to deliver freight to the terminal and not mine. The shift lead ran into the supervisor's office and started yelling that I had done it. Thankfully there were several people who saw it and told the truth. Plus, he wasn't supposed to be driving the forklift in that area to begin with. On another job the forklift operator was using a large forklift to move his car. When he hit a speedbump the car rolled forward off the forks and on to its roof. He was driving so fast that he drove the forklift halfway over it before he could stop. Good times!

I tried twice forwards, stared at it, lifted up a little bit and tilted down and backed up and flipped it onto the fork. He flipped out and said no one had ever done that before and he saw me think about it. He walked up front and got my certification started. He also let me keep the penny.

Forklift sports have been around awhile. In 1999, I was a volunteer judge for a Forklift Rodeo, with various race and precision events. I worked at the Basketball event, where drivers had to put the ball in the hoop using only the forks.

[@Jonathan.D]

They have these events for all kinds of equipment. There's one for bobcats that's cool. My favorite is the one for helicopter pilots who fly for the coastguard. In one event a pencil is taped to the skid and it has to be used to move things. They even sharpen the pencil by poking the end of it into an electric pencil sharpener. It boggles the mind!

[@ozpin8329]

I watched my coworker dump a 3 ton pallet of sheet metal earlier today. He was going forward a little too fast with the load about five feet in the air (instead of down by the ground) and the thing tipped forward when he hit the brakes. He pivoted forward on the front wheels at a nearly 45 degree angle until the pallet hit the floor and slid off, causing the forklift to crash back down hard enough to make the whole shop shake. Dude ended up okay thankfully. Our normal forklift went out for repairs two days ago, and the rental we're using has a center of gravity much further forward. Our normal forklift would have handled the maneuver he did just fine, but he was on autopilot.

For example, one dude bet that he can drink water faster than a dog from a dog bowl. Someone bet, that he can sing O Sole Mio while being run over by a 15-tone vehicle. Ripping apart 15 telephone books in a minute. Having a dog separating trash. Climbing up 15 meters with a tractor. Blowing up a hot water bottle with your breath. Recognizing the color of a pencil via taste, while blindfolded. Building a tower of washing machines in 5 minutes. Smelling shit and recognizing the animal. ..That was one of the most successful formats in Germany.

Truth haha

[@Big_Max41]

It's Germany, with some of the strictest working safety regulations, so I'm sure they're not allowed to do any stunts that might cause the lift to tip over, or lift anything too high or heavy that might fall on someone. So they ended up with a light load that's hard to balance on small obstacles.

[@martincastaneda8574]

IDK, these seem like really light and uneven stacked loads. I find heavy items easier to move. It looks like a slight breeze could tip these over.

[@nezdnero4727]

Dude I was literally thinking to myself how I was surprised there hasn’t been something like this done before 😂😂

[@sumlem]

This HAS to be brought over to the US. I know my Mexican fork lift certified Dad would love to watch or even be a part of it.

[@Petro1683]

Our forklift drivers had custom beer holders on their forklifts.

[@riskingmybiscuit4209]

Honestly, AAA game quality. I can’t wait for someone to create this and bring the forklift Olympics to the gaming community.

[@nyan8399]

You know it's gonna be EA and you'll have to buy new forklifts every year.

[@VorpalSnickerSnack]

Didn't Shemu do this?

[@riskingmybiscuit4209]

Forklift battle royal..

[@Bfkcjscbsnjc]

Does this Ioser ever leave his room?

[@flavinho-]

This is the only Olympics worth watching

[@rick999h]

It was just a matter of time Charlie finding our German Forklift competitions 😂❤

[@justinpugh6834]

The fact that anything deemed a sport will always have a sponsorship

[@RyanSchechtman]

This is awesome, but I couldn't stop thinking about the Staplerfahrer Klaus video.

[@Bingle1]

This is the kind of journalism the world really needs.

[@shr00mski]

“Learned to ride the forklift while on work release from prison~” 😂

[@ellolired3994]

This is very hype. They should start adding pyrotechnics to make it even more extreme

[@gt_observations1953]

0:44 roughly translates to "Hotdawg this man is a forklift legend, give this man my wive, he deserves her more."

[@Iheckinlovetenz]

LMFAO NO WAY

[@champiggyfrm_pig5271]

​@@Iheckinlovetenzin case you are wondering, it absolutely doesn't

[@bustermuffinhaff781]

Forklift Olympics 2 days after Christmas is insane

[@zacharytripp-buchanan2968]

Love it only thing the competition committee clearly overlooked was not having the competitors doing a Pre-Op Check of the machine and at the end of the race plugging the machines back in and not leaving it in the aisles.

[@aresgaming7351]

It is actually very impressive how skilled all of these people have to be for this, as each run takes so much time and there is so much room for error.

[@SuperKamiGuru20]

I've been a forklift driver for years. I need to compete in this. I was born for this

[@FoulMouthFishing666]

I use the forklifts every chance I get at work those babies are so fun to cruise around in lol

[@SarcasticCupcake223]

As someone going through forklift training, I can confirm, that shit ain't easy. Just accelerating a little too fast will be enough to send those stacked objects flying.

[@WInfinityCrew]

this is classic critikal. glad to see we are back to the silliness
