Another crane collapse

[GazCro]

Agreed, could it not be the case if it was anchored to the slabs, its pulled them up as its tipped before fixings have let go?

Not if it wasn't bolted down and tbh if it had been you'd expect all the slabs to have moved not just one. Could have been an old culvert underground nobody knew about that collapsed.

Equally if it has moved due to insufficient counter weight and lifted 3 legs imposing it's entire weight onto one pad it wouldn't really be surprising for that pad to move in relation to the other three

Fair points well made lads

The narrator comes across as a complete heartless tosser, but his theory is pretty compelling.

Take it you've not watched AvE before, that was pretty good for him. Good theory too.

No - and tbh I have no interest in watching anything else from him as he sounds like a knob!

He sounds like the bloke off the fastshow who used to play cricket with his kids

I am also an AvE fan, he does make me laugh, but he’s also a very intelligent bloke and very clever with it. Not every word is gospel, but he’s on the right track most of the time. I mainly watch for the tits n pickles......

What is AvE

Someone slightly more cocksure and arrogant than me, but with a camera

What is AvE

He’s a Canadian YouTuber. He’s mainly into workshop based stuff, does some very unique tool breakdowns. Tbh you never know what your gonna get when you watch one of his vids. He has a very good way with words, and his language is hilarious.
I suppose you either love him or hate him, but I think if you get his sense of humour, then he’s a must watch YouTuber

Some of his tool reviews are great, actually get to see whats inside the tool. He never seems to shy away from learning a little about anything and then educating everyone on it either
