In my yoot I worked around cranes quite a bit. One guy I worked with had a habit of saying "raise it down" or "lower it up".

I thought it was funny at the time, but we had to put a stop to it because of the obvious safety implications.

BTW don't try it, turns into a bad habit real easy.
Kinda like getting a song stuck in your head you can't get rid of.
