    And he probably wondered why it was his last day.

          This looks like a good spot for one of those "Need to get away?" airline commercials...

          At least this means there will be a big Scratch-n-Dent sale coming soon to a BORG near you...

            I wonder if they've dug him out yet.

              It's amazing that such a large section of a rack like that can come down that easily. I replayed it many times to see if it was a hoax, but it looks real. He was probably running like that to go change his shorts!

                  If he didn't before, he sure did after.

                    Very impressive, but not Home Depot. They don't sell 55 gallon drums of anything that I'm aware of....

                      Funny but not

                      It was funny to see all of those shelves collapse, but it brought back a memory. I knew a guy who worked at Sam's Club. He was putting a pallet on top of a shelf, and an institutional sized box of laundry detergent fell off of the other side, and struck and killed an elderly customer. They developed safety rules for running a fork lift after that company wide.

                      I hope no one was hurt in this incident.

                        I though it was toilet warehouse. Those all look like commodes to me.

                            OSHA regulations for forklifts changed because of Home Depot, they were having that many accidents.

                            That video is not borg and it shows their shelves were not installed correctly.
