    That vid shows some freaking talent....and someone who had lots of spare time learning to control that machine the way he did....


    Incredible control..... I'm sending that to a buddy of mine who runs a bobcat everyday backfilling pools. I bet he can't do that...

    There is another one floating around on thy net where a backhoe loads itself on a boxcar and moves itself from boxcar to boxcar to unload them. Same type of idea.

    Impressive. A guy i used to work with tried to sneak a bobcat home for some weekend work. He built a nice ramp out of soil and everything, had it all planned out, backed his HALF TON pickup to the ramp and drove it on. Destroyed that poor truck, had to take the wheels off and sledgehammer the wheel wells back out so he could drive it home.

    Reminds me of a guy who used to dig pools for us in Vegas. He once had to dig a pool that was narrower than the Bobcat was long, and I said to him "well that's gonna suck- you're going to have to back out of the hole with every load". He just smiled, dug in, picked up a scoop and proceeded to throw the bucket in the air, flip the Bobcat up onto it's rear end, spin it around 180 degrees in about a 6' diameter circle. and drive out the way he went in. There wasn't anything ole' Buddy couldn't dig with a Bobcat.

    Any of those OSHA approved ways to load and unload anything? Pretty neat stuff that a guy is that good with the tools.
