Watch as this flatbedder works smarter, not harder

A flatbedder has figured out a way to work smarter, not harder in this surprising video. 

In the clip, the chains have already been removed from the concrete pipes on the flatbed. The driver then throws the rig in reverse, pulls forward, and then reverses again with such perfect timing that the concrete pipe rolls gently back onto the forklift arms. The driver then gently lowers the pipe down next to the first one using the forklift arms, which had clearly already been unloaded. 

“This man is a pro,” reads the video caption. 

“He’s done that a time or two,” wrote one viewer. 

“I did that once with rolling dumpsters but it was not intentional,” added another.
