Product demo

Apparently this rig was built specifically to show off the capabilities of the digger. Well, I can't see what else it would be used for! Pretty good demo though.

None of that risk assesement stuff there then

How do you think they swap the "grip" of the arm to move it up a level ?

Does it just rest on the tracks.

Edit: Ah !! just seen the tracks jammed in between those brackets.


Hope he doesn't run out of diesel at the top.

There's a youtube vid of this being done in THE DARK in Contract Journal 24th Feb issue. Look in the 'what's hot' section for Digger blog: Liebherr R312 climbing stunt part 2. Sorry but I don't know how to put a link to it here.
