I heard it was illegal to sell coffins unless you have like a licence or something because the buisness is so corrupt and funeral homes alot of the time resell used coffins. I hear its a pretty shakey buisness

That Excavator climbing is amazing, I was wondering if it was an electro-magnet mounted in place of the bucket. Instead it looks like some sort of interlocking shoe with with hydro pins to lock..

Still big set of coconuts on the operator...

Oh I think I have that covered,

The digger ( I think) uses his
Quick release pins that would normally hitch buckets on/off

Even so I have to hide behind a curtain every time I watch the player

This crane fell over and was crushed at a refinery about 6 months before I went to work there. They took it apart with cutting torches and sold it for scrap.
For reference, those blue cross-braces on the mast? 6" schedule 80 steel pipe.

IIRC, one of it's sister cranes went over at miller park in Wisconsin.

Another picture of that Lampson crane building a coker unit. Those superstructures are almost 200 feet tall when finished.

was that the famous 'big blue' I've seen crashing down.

Think it was a football stadium where it collapsed carrying a huge roof structure killing worker
