We had lots of similar photos in my days peddling mining and construction equipment. A Datsun dropside ute that was about 6" thick and 20' wide after a 200 ton coal hauler backed over it. The Datsun's driver parked in the shade behind the hauler so it was not in the 50 degree sun whilst he had his crib. Another was a high drive D8 dozer with its back end pushed flat when the operator got too close to the dragline he was cleaning up around whilst it moved. The dragline stamped its little foot and got the dozer just behind the cab. Bet that called for a change of trousers.
