This set of fantantastic photos was sent in my Mining Mayhem's No. 1 fan, Owen. Brand new $4M Gillespies' crane, nine days old.
As soon as the jib was extended on the crane, one of the support legs punched through the thin concrete. Someone obviously forgot to check the non-distributed load capacity of the slab.
The crane balanced for about an hour before falling through.
That sound you hear is the insurance assessors screaming.Thanks Owen, for sending these through!
