Unusual use of an AWP
Unusual use of an AWP
It wasn't quite the intended use of an aerial work platform, but in COVID-19 times, tools find new uses.

According to a report on WTVY, Starkville woman Jane Seale had been trying to visit her 93-year-old father, George Hill, at the Brookdale Senior Assisted Living facility in Clinton, Mississippi, but coronavirus meant visitation restrictions and her dad lives on the top floor.

Her husband, Dan, rented a hydraulic lift from JWH Equipment on Highway 80 to enable Jane to visit her dad - even though it was on a lift and through a window.

Seale says she is thankful because she has three friends who didn't get to see their parents before they passed away because of the restrictions caused by the pandemic.
