Could be. It's not a fork lift though, and was completely electric. Kind of like this but in yellow, for moving two pallets at the same time:
This was mid to late 90s though in Hungary. I assume they've all been replaced by either automation or just single electric ones since.
They are still being made and used. At a job I had 7 years ago they had two of them. Pretty handy when you need to fill a truck with pallets. I did not need a license.
You need some practice though, I may have fallen off one or two times in a corner. One day a truck driver borrowed it and managed to park the whole back into another pallet. Fun machines.
At my current job we have ones for single pallets, but they can go 4 meter high. I love it, very flexible and small, but you can still put pallets away pretty high.
Isn't that a fork lift of it can lift 4m high?
Nope. It's basically this:

Our version has a plate behind so you can stand on that and drive the thing around.
