Have you ever wondered what would happen if grade-Z horror studio Troma Films (makers of such classics as Surf Nazis Must Die!, The Toxic Avenger, and Class of Nuke 'Em High) decided to get into the workplace-safety film business?
No? Neither had I, until I saw Staplerfahrer Klaus -- a workplace-safety short from Germany that can only be described one way: fucking insane.
It's in German, but trust me, you don't need to know German to enjoy it -- all you need to know is that it's the story of Klaus' first day on the job as a forklift operator. The visuals tell the story from there. Be sure to watch it all the way through for the full effect.
UPDATE (December 13, 2006): Well, my old link to the video died. But thanks to the miracle of YouTube, I can now show it to you right inside this post! Enjoy:

Sorry.

The link works for me... it's a Windows Media file, do you have a player installed that can handle it?
