BROTHERS FIGHT WITH LARGE MACHINERY

An argument between two brothers at their Bow, New Hampshire, recycling business led one to use a front-end loader to tip over a crane occupied by his sibling. Peter Emanuel, 54, was later arrested after he drove away in a garbage truck. His brother, Stanley Emanuel, jumped out of the crane before it fell over. He wasn’t hurt. Peter was charged with attempted assault, criminal mischief and resisting arrest.
* “Forklift you!” “Yeah? Forklift YOU!!!”
* What can you fight about at a recycling business? Paper vs. plastic?
* It’s a heavy-equipment version of Rock, Paper Scissors: “Front-End Loader tips Crane”.
* Stanley should have fought back, because “Crane lifts Front-End Loader”.
* What would really have been fun is if one of the brothers had one of those huge electromagnets that can lift cars off the ground.
* Did I say “fun”? I meant “dangerous.”
* Are they sure it wasn’t a couple of Transformers slugging it out?
* Reminds of that cool fight in China between the bulldozers.
* I think it was China but that one had a YouTube clip.
* This is going to be one awkward Thanksgiving at the Emanuel household.
* Peter was charged with attempted assault? I think tipping over a crane is more than just an attempt, don’t you?
