2013 Video of the Week #42 (Mobile Scaffold)
Just imagine how much EASIER the task of moving this scaffolding would have been had the 200 pounds climbed down the 10′ to the ground and HELPED move the scaffold!  This is NOT how you move mobile scaffold… the scaffold is “mobile” – NOT the worker on the scaffold!
