Would you have the balls?

Yes, I love running heavy equipment. It's kind of a talent to run anything big, well. Just like throttling....
 
I wouldnt be supprised if the pics are fake. There is no sagging or pinching in the tracks on any of the pics. The very last pic would put an ungodly amount of strain on the attachement pins, very hard to belive....But if they are real are and somebody dared me to after a 12 pack, well.....uhh....probably.:ack2:
 
The third picture is the givaway. Center of grav. is way back, Even if the operator having the tracks in forward, can't be done that way. I am familiar with backhoes. Interesting concept, may be done with graple on the front end, or a different set up, The pins would hold. The whole tracks, trany, motor, and cab can be lifted up by the buckets. See it often on my sites, but here the eq. is "off balance". The front end has to have enough grip to handle the "moment force" load. Moment= load X> force arm lenght. physics :26:
 
I'm guessing it's real. Look at the size of the boom for what I would say is a 30,000 ib machine. It doesn't really have any stick to speak of. The attachment has no real purpose. Pins could have been beefed for what is a demo for a brand.

Not finding any video on the net does carry some (fake) marit though.
 
I would try the first leg but after that...:ack2:

Look at the tower close front of tracks are wedged between the concrete couldn't figure out at first how it was balancing but it isn't tracks are wedged in while bucket is moved to next level still a lot of strain on hydraulics and boom.
