    At 0:43 seconds, this guy walks away, about 5 seconds before the counter weight starts moving up as the back of the tracks begin to lift. Makes me wonder what he was looking for? Maybe he was just acting important.

    Sounds like someone was hurt.

    It also looked like he walked right under the counter weight!
