Just another day in paradise...

Scheduled to do a "PM" on about 18 exterior cameras at a site today. "What lift do you need" asks the shop...

"A 35', articulated, self propelled. Get the same unit we always use". I reply...

I understand that the rental outfit may not have a 35', but before you substitute another make/model/size, please call me first.

If you drive it fast enough, you'll make it through there no problem.

Build a ramp and 'Dukes of Hazzard' jump it!

Here's what I'm thinking... This guy would have been perfectly fine if he just had a little more speed.

A cruise ship can actually go faster and get sucked down into the water a little. Here's one that clears under a bridge by mere feet. When empty, it's too tall, needs ballast and retractable smokestack to (barely) fit.

Letting the air out of the tires might work too.
