Title: OMG this guy needs a raise
Post by: yamahonkawazuki on June 11, 2009, 12:43:06 AM
Some people swallow swords, catch bullets in their teeth and swim with sharks (no lawyer jokes intended). Never thought I would say that an excavator operator was a 'showman'.

This tower was specifically built to show off the physical power of the excavator.

This operator DONT make near enough
