Fuck that! That was impressive and all...but fuck that.

One of my uncles was a contractor (he's a hoss, big dude) and way back when I was about 12 or so he was replacing the roof on my grandparents house. I remember watching him climb up a ladder to the second story with 3 bundles of shingles on his shoulder. He did that over and over until all the material was up. As a skinny little kid I was just like "daaaaaaamn". That steel beam in the video above must've be heavy as hell.

I really thought that would end badly.
I really thought a ladder rung would snap.
He probably said to himself, "I only weigh 185, well under the 300# limit"
That is a hernia there.

When I used to load trailers we had to do a "team lift" because so many people had injured their back and gotten hernias trying to lift 120 lbs off the ground repeatedly. Seen some stupid shit with cherry pickers too people would stand on the forks and be lifted 40 ft in the air on a speeding fork lift.

I was waiting for the ladder to collapse.

Were those Kiwi accents?

I was waiting for that latter to snap and honestly I'm glad it didn't. That shit was just plain impressive. Awesome/
