Overbalanced crane crushes house
If you want to see just how vindictive and horrible inanimate objects can be, and how vicious stupid physics is, just watch as this crew uses a crane to hoist a cement, prefab swimming pool over a cute, innocent bungalow, only to have it snatched out of the sky, dragging the crane arm through the roof of the aforementioned residence. Someone's turned the physics up to 11 in our sim, and it's just not fair. I was filming with my phone and I heard the crane operator scream and I took off running toward the front of the house as soon as he started to yell I knew something went wrong. It sounded like thunder when the thing hit the house knocked out the chimney crushed the garage and busted up the house good. The operator was shaking in his boots scared the hell out of him not to mention things like this do not happen they have a load chart that prevents things like that.. needless to say he was on the phone with the owner of the company right away. Crazy Friday.... Crane Crushes House (Thanks, Fipi Lele!)...Original Link: http://feeds.boingboing.net/~r/boingboing/iBag/~3/YjDr1QRkwec/overbalanced-crane-c-1.html
