140 ton Crane falls..................

2008.04.25
The load it was picking weighs near 15,000 pounds. It turned the load towards the river, the leg support buckled......... turned over and in the river. The operator had only minor injuries.

Black and White of the photo.

Thomas full of mud............long day at work...

Picking a 15 ton loan.

Look, it's up in the air.

In the rebar cage.

Cherax You've done a great journalistic job with these. Love the cheesey grin of the worker. I wonder if you've seen those images (from Ireland or somewhere like that) where they dropped a second crane while picking up the first.
