An English-subtitled German workplace safety film about forklift driver Klaus. It is campy and darkly comic, staging an escalating series of forklift accidents.

Mostly used as a joke reference whenever forklifts, safety or dying on the job come up, with one commenter calling it a funny and bloody case for warehouse safety.

Splitting hairs a bit: the qualifications and regulations for driving in ports, warehouses, docks, and factory floors are far more stringent than public roadways, and the conditions on roads are far less predictable and controllable. Wouldn’t want to end up like Klaus: ▶ this video

I’m neither German nor a forklift operator, but this video answered every question I’ve ever had about why warehouse safety is such a big deal. ▶ this video (Warning: bloody. Campy, funny, but bloody)

I think this can become a matter of fairness or insurance demands. You have a forklift operator, so everybody must get tested. They are afraid you might do drugs, hop on the forklift, and drive like Klaus... Klaus with English subtitles: ▶ this video Dubbed to English, as "Chad": link

Yes. However, if your goal is to learn to lift up large masses, learning to operate a forklift is a good thing to do. (I cannot write about a "forklift operator" without asking if you have seen this German "educational" film. It starts slowly, but... ▶ this video )
