Fuck as a guy who's got a few years iron working under my belt this is scary to see I hope the spotter on the ground is okay

[NateLower]

Am I the only one to notice this isn't drone footage!

[michaeltaylor]

Fellow high rise guy. Hope everyone is ok. Had floor collapse on me a year ago. Scared the shit right out of me

[mustanggang.]

OSHA gonna have a field day with this ome

I cant believe the crane didn't fall after its counterweights fell off. I've seen a few cranes personally collapse from the sudden weight change.

Glad there where no fatalities

Yellow, Mister Gorge, how much you pay for the new guy, he no good operator

[markwimpeejr]

Lana, I hope the Mayor will step up for these families and first responders.

Just another reason why I didn't want to operate tower cranes. I'll just stick to running mobile ones.

I remember 2 cranes fell in Manhattan the same summer. One took out half the block of buildings it was near.

He's just lucky that he wasn't making a lift when the counterweights fell off, or the whole crane could have fell to the ground.

😢😢many people and insurance companies aren’t having good day today. Hope no one was hurt.

I hope no one was injured in this accident not even five minutes ago I saw another video. Where a crane in New York was buring from the cockpit and the top burned and fell over like twenty stories down. I saw that five people were injured just that it didn't say how bad the injuries are. I just hope they get well soon and that no one was hurt on this one here.

[garydail]

[jlconner]

Must be scary as hell climbing those stairs to the cockpit

[babaraemmell]

This is scary I hope he's alright

[jeanmartin]

Probably metal fatigue where the counterweights were attached

[jamesthomas]

I pray no workers were killed in this.
