that dock didn't even look wide enough to get the pickup turned the 90° onto the planks in the first place.
but using nothing more than a pair of 30ft long planks as a loading ramp took guts

Yeah, I don't think anyone involved was suffering from an excess of anything in accomplishing that task, but a a huge deficit of thinking/planning/good sense. Maybe, they soaked those boards in luck overnight. The looked kinda slippery. What I really want to see is them doing that traveling uphill when they get where they are going!

New boards, old dock! I'd have been more worried about that dock not being engineered to hold the weight of a 6500 lb truck! They might not have even gotten to the planks!
