This was nowhere near a vertical cliff the excavator went down. The person filming the vid made it look like the cliff was a much steeper angle than it actually was. The proof is at .39 when you can see the many different levels of the mining cuts in the background.

This was nowhere near a vertical cliff the excavator went down. The person filming the vid made it look like the cliff was a much steeper angle than it actually was. The proof is at .39 when you can see the many different levels of the mining cuts in the background.

That's about a 45 degree rotation...
