December 22, 1944 Dearest Hilda, I wish I could tell you that things were going better out here on the front, but I must confess that the war is only more and more horrible each day. Yesterday we were hit by the US 420th Forklift Regiment. Though we were quickly reinforced by two battalions of pallet jacks, we couldn't hold the line, and we were slowly lifted and placed on high shelves deeper within the borders of our own Fatherland. Do you remember Klaus, our friend from school? He's gone, Hilda, lost during a desperate counterattack when he foolishly lifted a crate with his back rather than his knees. I can still see his wide terrified eyes as he clutched at me and begged for aspirin and workman's comp. I can still hear the beeping of the Americans' forklifts slowly backing up, only to come at us again and again. What horrors we have brought on ourselves in this destructive and terrible war. I can only pray that one day I make it home safely to you and our daughters. Yours ever, Hans P.S. Oh God, I can hear the squeaky wheels approaching.

Makes sense honestly. The dog isn't putting itself in danger, nor does it even understand the scenario.

[@0neDoomedSpaceMarine]

The dog doesn't understand he can hurt its tongue licking the running electric mixer. Meanwhile, the Second Chance guy, Richard Davis, knew full well what kind of potential risks there are with shooting a gun at yourself, even wearing a Kevlar vest, but he had confidence enough in his product that he would take that risk to demonstrate its effectiveness. *tl;dr* below about how Richard Davis is incidentally a crook. With the development of his "Ultima" and "Ultimax" vests, made out of 'Zylon', a kind of polymer material technically stronger than the traditional Kevlar material, he neglected to tell the Department Of Justice, or his other customers, of its fatal flaw: lifespan. All soft body armor degrades over time just from being worn, being exposed to sweat, sunlight, body heat, ambient heat (like living in Florida or sitting in a hot car in the summer), even air, but the Zylon material degraded MUCH faster than the traditional Kevlar material, so people used to wearing body armor for a certain period of time before disposing of and replacing it, were now wearing expired armor, and they didn't even know it, Second Chance certainly wasn't telling people about the short expiration date, and Richard Davis was 100% aware of this. This would come to light in 2003, when two police officers were seriously injured from their Zylon vests failing to stop the bullets they were rated for, and lead to a protracted legal battle between Richard Davis and the Department Of Justice which only was settled a couple of years ago. Second Chance had to recall all of its Zylon armor, and promptly went into bankruptcy as a result, being acquired by another company unrelated to Rich Davis.

[@SlatePunchgroin]

As someone who has done years of warehouse work, I like Mike appreciating how dangerous forklifts are. Everytime I see a youtube page watching these type of videos or accident prevention stuff it gives me chills because if you know you know.

[@BrickVault]

Is it weird that I watched this Wegman's Christmas vid every year as a kid and didn't think it was weird? When you're young this didn't feel too far off from 'Milo and Otis' which is I think where the flat narration style comes from. What a trip to see one of your childhood vids to end-up on BOTW. I think I'm gonna go have a mid-life crisis now...

[@declana1359]

Mike has an uncanny ability to spot whenever an actor is drunk during their scenes. But i guess it should come as no surprise considering the amount of personal experience he has on this subject.

@@RandyHawkeye Yeah, they did get deployed early on in the conflict, but the Japanese would hide in the foliage and push over the American forklifts as they passed by, the American losses were so great, that the entire 5th forklift cavalry division was pulled out of the Pacific theater, but they would go on to play an important role in Italy.
