[amish]

they were lucky that didn't happen when they were standing right next to it.

 

[Slick5150]

Translation:
"Higher higher..."
"Just move it over."
"OH CRAP! That was my brother's car!"
"Don't worry, it'll buff out."

 

[DanTMWTMP]

well, at least no one got hurt

and provided me w/ some laughter.

reminds me of a set of pictures where a crane trying to lift a car out of the water fell over.

Most modern cranes of that size wouldn't do this these days. They have on board computers to keep from losing their load.

 

[BrokenVisage]

Hah! Sucks for the owner, funny for everyone else.

How would they prevent tipping over? I don't get it.

Oh they are so SUED. If that was my car I'd go into court swinging.

Weight/strain sensors can measure how much the load is, position sensors measure the angles and how far the boom is extended. Too far and an alarm sounds and stops movement away from stable.

What if they compensated you before it got that far? Sue happy?

Why do you assume somebody is going to get sued? Some people do pay for their damages without having to go to a court you know.

Weight limit? What does that mean?

Oh, that means you should wait 30 minutes after eating before going back to work. OK, lift the thing!!
