After watching the (awesome) video, I'd have to assume NOTHING is safe from it. I can't think of anything that would survive a slide down the ramp into that thing, other than maybe a Herkimer battle jitney!

Pretty cool stuff!

This seems like it makes a lot more sense than crushing, since you have to separate the stuff anyway.

Nothing freaks me out like a Mulching Excavator, cause it's on tracks and can chase you!

Yeah, then when you're motionless, like a deer in the headlights, it mistakes you for a tree.
