More German game show digger action

The guys behind German TV game show Wetten Dass have been at it again, bringing a digger or bagger in the native tongue, into the studio for their latest challenge.

While we in the UK suffer from a constant barrage of the X Factor or a bunch of B list celebrities having the mickey taken out of them in the Australian jungle by a couple of Geordies. The German television channel 2DF continues to produce good quality family entertainment in the form of Wetten Dass, the German version of You Bet, which used to be a popular Saturday night show here in the UK before for some bizarre reason it was axed. We have covered a number of these challenges on the blog over the years, but this is the latest one I have found on the internet. This new challenge features operator Bernhard Schebesta, who bet he could pull 4 tablecloths off the tables without the crockery falling off in 5 minutes using an orange peel grab mounted on a Liebherr excavator, did he do it? You bet he did!
