I have seen this one before, normally mixed in with the overloaded trains, trucks, carts and three wheelers from India and Asia.
Interesting that the store owner only got him to sign a waiver as opposed to refusing to sell.
I mentally compared this to buying a 6.5m length of pipe recently where they would only sell to me if I agreed to have it cut as there was a maximum length my trayback was allowed to carry. I was Ok with this as I wanted it cut anyway.

That reminded me of an incident about 40 years ago. A mate of mine wanted to build a steel framed, colorbond garage and bought a kit from Bakers in Blacktown. His trailer had a flat tyre on the scheduled day of pickup so he put his gutter mounted roofbars on his Corolla panel van and drove out to get the kit. Despite warnings that the kit weighed about a ton, he had the steel placed on the bars by the warehouse forklift. The roofbars collapsed onto the turret which was then flattened in turn. Fortunately, the Corolla was built tough in those days, and despite the fact that the suspension was compressed almost to the limit of its travel, he drove it home.

I once worked for an organisation that had Landcruisers fitted with heavy-duty roof trays that were supposedly designed to carry a 44 gallon drum of fuel - don't know how we were supposed to get it up there. Trouble is, it was mounted on the gutters!
Once, we hit a spoon drain a bit fast and the unladen tray punched through the gutters. We managed to get a bull bag between the roof and the tray, but when we inflated it, it not only lifted the tray, it lowered the roof panel.
