A friend dad grew up with and worked for his father was working on the bottom of a dump truck at the pump and valve assembly. His dad was over him telling him what to do when he told him to undo a line he wouldnt when he finally did it let the bed slam him. This was back in the day when there wasnt and excavator around and they were by themselves. He had a dragline there and hopped on it and hooked the bed with the bucket and pulled it off him it fell again and he pulled it off that time long enough to get him the the hospital where he died. Even till last year when Larry sold out He came by where I work and Saw I was under a dump and firstthen he checked was my blocking.
