Crane FAIL
 
Recently had a crane collapse literally opposite the office landing on some apartments!

Apparently the operator got thrown out of it but is ok!

That could of been alot more nasty if it had fallen to the right? Looks like some sort of power thingy.. :eh?:

Was by Jamacia st, load of new flats being/have been built were there used to be warehouses. There are pics on the echo site and twitter of it impaling some roofs on the far right side.

We heard it go but didnt think it was a crane!! thought it was just the demo guys taking down the old beers yard across the street. Next thing i look out of the window and was like FUCK THAT CRANES FALLEN OVER!!

Yeah good job it didnt hit the sub station, that supplies our building and we where working on some important stuff today!

Not a proper crane tho' is it? looks like one of them poncey cantilever type jobbies... and it's RED! It was bound to fall over in that colour!!! :woot:
