Why wasn't this aborted as soon as the first wheels came off the ground?

They were trying to tip the load off, they didn't want to have to unload it.
You can tell by all three moving forward when they came down.

Because sometimes you do what you have to with what you got. At least it was relatively safe. As long as they kept the pile going forward.Originally Posted by Karl_H
Quicker than it took to load!
That's for sure. As a teenager I worked summers in construction with my father. There was an entire truck load of timber that was dropped off of a truck just like this. And we had to sort it all out. into 2 x 4, 2 x 6 and 2 x 10. he job site was quite northern so the truck was loaded to it's maximum. Pick up stix took on a whole new meaning after that. Oh, and it was raining the entire time. You just keep on working!

That can't be good for the axles on those forklifts, especially since they have NO suspension whatsoever.
That flatbed driver must have been in an enormous hurry!
