Ozempic can have some really bad side effects. Probably for the best.

Greater side effects than having to be lifted from your house in a crane?

Ah yes, who doesn't enjoy cold food, warm drinks and paying double/triple for fast food.

I always knew Lsu Coyote was lying about all that lifting, Jujitsu and cardio BS.

Damn, I'd hate to be living in the apartment underneath his. I'd be in constant fear for my life.

3 Things come to mind after watching that:

1) Someone is bringing him tons of food while he is in bed. There is simply no other way.

2) How do you wipe you own arse after you take a dump? You don't

3) If you are a nurse and have to take care of that then you should definitely be paid extra. Like a lot extra. Like "by the pound" type thing.

Man, just stop feeding him and he will lose hundreds of pounds... at least until he can get up to go get more food on his own.

That's not a crane. It is a forklift or a front end loader with a lift attachment. Dude is resting in some way on a pallet.

Maybe this is a distinction without a difference. Hydraulics was involved. But there are no pulleys.

Dude will not live a long life. That's baked into it.

I was going to post the same thing, but there are straps hanging from a clevis attached to something I can't see. So there is probably a cable hanging from someplace. I don't know what's going on there and I've spent a lot of time operating equipment, including several years as a crane operator.
Maybe a safety precaution, in case the reach lift tilts forward?
I've never seen anything being done like that, but I've never had to fly any fat guys.

It was a crane truck and a fork lift. The crane picked the guy up over the railing and set the pallet on the forklift to bring him down. I would imagine just trying to lower him down via the crane without any support underneath the pallet would risk the pallet just snapping and ol boy plummeting to the earth.
