Marshalling, getting close to obstructions, blah, blah, blah. This guy had an entire airport to land on. This was no confined space operation. There was absolutely no reason to get that close to that structure. He couldn't walk an extra 10 feet or drag a fuel hose an extra 10 feet? Or 20 feet?

What am I missing?

Throwing myself under that same bus, mind you, as there is a hangar that I regularly land at where I tuck close in order to minimize effort pushing the ship down an alley into a side door. Maybe time to reassess that behavior...
