If you are a Carscoops regular, you’ll have a feeling of deja-vu by watching this video, as not long ago we posted similar footage of a construction machine loading itself onto a truck.

The difference this time is the type of the machine, as this latest video features a skid-steer loader instead of an excavator. However, it’s not the machine, it’s the man operating it who is the star.

That’s because he manages to load the machine onto a big truck by doing a clever, unexpected thing: he unbalances the loader using the weight of the front attachment so that the machine lifts its rear wheels into the air. From then on, it’s pretty obvious for everyone what the approach will be. Scroll down to watch the video.
