That's one CRAZY S.O.B.!!!! I wouldn't care how much I got paid, it would not be enough to do that!

But I give him an A+++ for effort!

Almost looks like those Black plates on the front of the bucket, were made just for that purpose.
I've done some crazy shit in a Bobcat, but nothing like that

That's awesome! I've seen something like that a couple times at work... One with a backhoe like that getting onto the back of a flatbed trailer (the loading dock was full) and another of an excavator doing the same. Never onto a rail-car though. The excavator was quite the one to watch. It got to a point were we swore it was going to roll backwards, but he swung the arm around fast enough to 'catch' himself and finish pushing up onto the trailer...

ive seen these things before, theres a kit that installs onto the bucket and outrigger feet to keep it from falling off. ive done shit like that up onto flatbed trailers and over trenches and shit but never up that high. not sure i'd have the balls to.
