    I see that headache rack didn't stand a chance against a large coil like that.

    That's that.

    That dead driver is going to wake up to a enternal morning with all his troubles over. Lord willing.

    Just have to hose off the blood and gore from that coil so they can continue to use it.

    I hauled the #### things. Big and small. Im still here. That's what they call a suicide coil.

    A 40k lb coil like that would have 10 chains where I work. I can only see one for sure.

    A 40 k coil can't be loaded eye to the sky nor can it be unloaded eye to the sky. They use a crane that goes into the eye to lift it. Eye to the sky is on pallets. That is too much weight for a pallet to support.

    They dont call them. Suicide coils for nothing. And ithink with a hard enough brake, it won't matter how many chains are on it, it'll still break free
