Steel-capped boats…?

Bizarre and misleading web post on demolition in the UK.

I am a firm believer that those that can, do; those that can’t just write about it. And, frankly, while I have a good understanding of what item of equipment goes where, and where I probably shouldn’t stand in the midst of a demolition project, I would be the first to admit that I have never (and probably will never) demolish anything in my life.

However, by comparison to the author of this web post, I am not just a considered expert; I am THE Demolition Man.

Apparently – and I am paraphrasing here – “…It is the process of attaching a heavy weight ball to the crane or a loader for demolition that is very usual….” Well, maybe 20 years ago. However, while the author’s knowledge of demolition equipment may be a little outdated, his grasp of the need for personal protective equipment is second to none: “…one has to be very cautious to use hard hats and steel capped boats…”

And yes, that really DOES say boats!!
