CollapsedCrane


CollapsedCrane

Remeber that post I had a couple of weeks ago about the construction monkeys fixing cranes by climbing up them?

Well, it gets worse (or better, depending on your perspective).

These same monkeys had a rooftop crane collapse yesterday. Took out scaffolding on top of the building as well as a protective walkway that was built underneath the building. The crane on the other side remains intact and in place. If you look closely at the bottom of the picture in the trees there on the right you'll see the crane laying there in the dirt, 11 guys tried to get it out yesterday, they couldn't move it.

Luckily no one was hurt in the fall, but I don't think I'll be walking over that way, well, ever.
