Time to rethink, shelf to load ratios. Well, that and fork lift driver training.

Securing shelving units to walls might be a start.

I pointed out to a boss at a steel tank factory I worked at, that the shelves should be attached at the top. We could still get the pallets up three shelf units high and they would be steadier.
Two months later a rack fell against his office wall.... two weeks after that, a crew was fastening bars across the tops of the racks.

There's a youtube of this accident... says it was in a Russian vodka warehouse and there were no injuries. The vid continues, showing employees digging the operator out. Dare we suspect drunk forklift driving?

Really, forklift operator is a deadly serious job. The driver is usually protected by a steel cage. It's people on the floor who get crushed when stuff comes down and it's not just mega-avalanches like this one. Dropping a pallet you are moving can kill too. Worth being mindful of in a Home Depot or wherever forklifts are in use. Give em room...

I've driven forklifts all throughout my life, all sizes, from measly little 4k electrics to massive 20ton 4X4's. I liked driving them.... dang good at it too. Just doesn't pay much in most places, the last place I drove for was a tank (lp,water,gas,air) factory.
The made 3,000 gal. lp tanks all the way down to 12.5oz. nox tanks. Talk about fun....however I did once glance left at some tanks that were leaning in a stack, and before I could look forward again I hit another fork lift coming the other direction.
Bent the fork really bad.... we were both belted in, so nothing happened, except the boss got p.o'd >:(
