Fork-lift driver loses control in warehouse

The moment a Russian fork-lift driver loses control bringing the contents of an entire warehouse smashing down around him has been caught on video. Skip related content

The accident happened in a warehouse in Moscow filled with glass bottles of vodka and cognac.

The driver's foot appears to slip on the accelerator as he smashes into the bottom of a huge stack of shelves.

Within seconds the shelves have crashed down on top of him, covering his fork-lift in crates and smashed bottles, causing the next row of shelves to also collapse.

His colleagues can be seen running towards him as they try and dig him out of the wreckage.

The driver apparently escaped with minor injuries to one of his legs, but the accident reportedly cost the owners of the warehouse around £60,000.
