Dumb *%!#. I knew a guy that got crushed working on a forklift that had a boat on it while he was messing with a hydraulic line. I knew another guy that got crushed working on a front end loader messing with a hydraulic line...

A buddy of mine used the bucket and outriggers on a giant backhoe to lift the backhoe off the ground. He then proceeded to climb under said machine and attempt to remove hydraulic lines. He couldn't get anything to budge. He got out to get some larger tools and it occurred to him that if he was successful in his task of removing the hydraulic lines, he would surely die.

So, what can we see exploding at the corner where the box meets the bed?

That would be hydraulic fluid...
