With respect, I have two points to make with this video.
1: Always use a ramp or two people.
Second point, sorry but I thoroughly disagree with this demo;
2: Those guys are lifting with their backs, not their legs.
Therein lies a recipe for disaster, ie; back injury that could see a person maimed, (possibly for life).
Always lift safely, when it's too heavy, or awkward, get a helping hand.
Considering all the times I lifted a floor polisher in & out of my van, (& they're a lot lighter than a Cimex), my back is in remarkable condition since I saw the light 3 decades ago & started using ramps.
They're easily stored against the side of the van when traveling.

I don't regret my past, I just regret the times I've wasted with the wrong people.
Take me as I am, or watch me as I go.
I'll retire when I can no longer do what I love, or I no longer love what I can do.
Stop moving, start dying........
