(13,437 posts)1. It would seem as if two people were injured or hit by falling debris. I wonder if they are OK.

'Trapped by cheese' worker freed after warehouse collapse
A worker trapped under a "huge amount" of cheese after metal shelving inside a food distribution warehouse collapsed has been freed.
Forklift driver Tomasz Wiszniewski walked out of the building unhurt after an eight-hour rescue operation.
Rescuers said it appeared as though Mr Wiszniewski had been saved by the protective cage on his truck.
Rows of metal racking came down in the building on Hatton Road, just outside Hinstock, Shropshire at 9.40am.

Changing the colors, adding false dates, and smudging everything up to hide the manipulation would be easy.
Somebody may have stolen a copy of the original video from an investigator's or lawyer's office.

In fact, it looks like a serious tragedy.
The forklift operator was buried under the pallets and the shelving. It's hard to see that he wasn't killed or seriously injured.
The two men in the foreground also seem to have been hit by the debris.
Very scary.

No way should there have been a cascading domino effect if those shelving units were sturdy and installed correctly. One fork lift running into a unit, should not have caused that to happen.
Found this article.

Amaz-in! Forklift driver causes an entire warehouse to fall like dominoes when he nudges a shelving unit
Clip captured forklift driver travelling along aisle of a distribution warehouse
As he made his way to the end, he veered left, bumping into a tall pallet rack
The entire warehouse then began to collapse, burying the forklift in cardboard
The footage, filmed last year, was uploaded to Facebook on Sunday but it is not known where it was taken or the driver's condition

This is the dramatic moment a forklift operator caused an entire warehouse of goods to fall like dominoes when he bumped into a shelving unit.
The clip, filmed inside an unnamed distribution warehouse, captured the driver as he made his way down an aisle between two tall pallet racks.
Two workers stood at the foot of the aisle checking boxes as he slowly travelled between the shelves, but disaster struck as he reached them.
