That's wild, looks like that's how they do it there, the next boat over seems to be loading stuff on their head too.

Wow

I saw this a while back and showed to some guys doing concrete work at my house. I told them, "you guys aren't working that hard! Look at this guy"

Good place to set up your chiropractor business.
Unreal!

Is it real? It looks real but you never know. The thing that gets me is the plank hardly bends when he walks across it and sometimes his arms appear to get longer or even blend in with the bricks right after he throws them.

Buddy of mine that is a commercial masonry contractor showed me that one a while back, he was wondering if he could get them a green card

send him to me for an epidural in his neck....he's gonna need it. 24/7.......if it is fake, then he did a good job of trying to avoid getting his right foot hit

Great imagination and digital work

Yup, they carry large loads . . . use a cotton donut on their heads to protect from scratches and easier to help balance the load

I know, thats what I was thinking and the guy handing him bricks is looking up also watching him stack them. I just cant believe that plank doesnt bend more than it does.

blackfinmike · 12-27-2009, 08:02 AM

24/7 the reason the plank didn't bend is because it was an Osha certified walk plank.

Total BS!

We had a crew put a slate roof on our house a few years ago and I took this guy's photo. He carried 10 slate at a time up a ladder approx 40 feet to the roof. I was glad to have it finished with no injuries.

Marlin009 · 12-29-2009, 04:19 PM

The guy looking up and him moving his foot when he dropped it make it look real. The plank looks like it is bowed up to start with, maybe that's why it doesn't bow more when he crosses. Amazing if it's real.

I wonder if he made it through the earthquake i hope so that's talent.

I'll go ahead and beat a nay-sayer to the punch:
PHOTOSHOP!

I had a complete reroof to the rafters done to my house a few years ago, they had one laborer that could take 2 sheets of 1/2 or 5/8 (I forget) ply and balance it ovehead with one hand pizza style, and RUN up the ladder 28'. I was amazed.

I have been doing construction for the last 15 years, I have often gone up a ladder with one sheet of plywood balanced on my head while holding it with one hand. Never tried two though.
