Default Another Mast Accident
A few stories down from the Dayton re-enactment I saw THIS. PLEASE....PLEASE......PLEASE do a walk around and check your truck. It only takes seconds.

Thanks for the posting! It's a good reminder to never trust your life to a safety device. Always do a walk around check before leaving the scene.

I just don't understand how this happens. The FIRST thing I do after a LIVE shot is hit the release valve to lower the mast and then turn off the transmitter. How do you even jump in a truck and not notice the mast sticking way up in the air???
