Guy Develops Clever Way to Unload Huge Concrete Pipes By Himself
A tiresome solution?
By Rain Noe - January 18, 2019
Don't try this in front of the OSHA inspector: This anonymous tradesman has developed a that's-so-crazy-it-just-might-work system for getting massive concrete pipes off of a truck by himself.
I suspect he's doing it by himself because all of his assistants were killed during the initial attempts. In fact I think he got the tires by stripping their trucks, since they won't be using them anymore.

I’m a lapsed industrial designer. I was born in NYC and figured I’d die there, but a few years ago I abandoned New York to live on a farm in the countryside with my wife. We have six dogs.

Guy Develops Clever Way to Unload Huge Concrete Pipes By Himself
It's obviously not the first time he's done this. :-)
Actually, if you pay attention you will notice that he remains behind the pipe when it comes down. That way he will not be crushed if the pipe does fall off to the side.
what he just said. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcU_6lzVMRo
Nice!
Here is another alternative to the stack of tyres.
A much safer method than the tyres, and a cheaper and easily avaliable method than the Pipemaster. Though, is it slower than the Pipemaster?
Do yourself a favor and check out a product call the Pipemaster by an Iowa company called Hawkeye Pedershaab. Been around since 1956 and works in a similar, albeit much safer and efficient, fashion.
