I've spent a good part of my adult life working in airplane factories with overhead gantry cranes moving pieces of structure around all day every day. The first, second, and third things in new employee orientation: Don't walk under crane loads, don't walk under crane loads, don't walk under crane loads. That guy is very lucky to be alive.

Just like a Looney Tunes cartoon, dude totally deflates then reinflates. Awesome trick. Do it again! Ohio Guy
ReplyDeleteThat is the luckiest dumbass ever filmed...
ReplyDeleteI really thought he was squished!
ReplyDeleteAnyone that's ever seen a main lift line blow on an excavator doesn't take chances like that.
ReplyDeleteWhen around scenarios like that I always reminded myself. Everything is man made, motors, straps, booms, chains and equipment.
