The Mine. As requested by Sniper

Post by Boris »

Ok so Sniper asked me to get pictures of the mine to see what it looks like, most of the pictures are poop but oh well.

When you see the picture of the "Blast Pattern" this video is the video of the blast.

Was the sound delay the actual time it took for the sound of the explosion to get to where you were at?

A komatsu 830e flipped on its side. These things are like 2 stories tall. The guy who flipped it quit when they told him he had to do a piss test.

This is a Komatsu 830e flipped on its side. These trucks are about 20 ft tall and 25 ft wide. With a "perfect" load they weigh 830tonnes, the driver who flopped it on its side was fired. (It wasn't me.)

Big trucks be big. I almost want to know how he flipped that thing over.
"Look at the sky, is there a heaven out there? What do you see? Is it a road to nowhere? I see a mountain, high, that reaches to the sky forever."

It begins with a ring-leader; in this case Bob "Flaming Carrot" Burden. "We'll make history, lads" he enthues "The first up-tempo, now, 1980's, happening kind of comic book artists to ever draw on a girl's legs in a strange hotel room".

He was here for a few months, passed out at the wheel and hit the berm and flipped over.
it may not look that significant but you see the tire that is stuck in the berm that tire is completely hovering over the edge of the pit and that fall is about 200 ft down. He could have landed on another truck, the power sub station, or the shovel/loader. Pretty lucky he didn't go over.

ok well maybe he is drunk then lol
but passing out on this must be a startled when his truck started to flip over.
surely I would and just pass out again lol

and so u mean that he ran over a bump on one side of his truck and rocks shift to the right and toppled over?
that seems more legit and possible
but if their was no rock then that couldn't of been possible
I love bicycling.
