I’m sure the MIC top survived and crack free

That went from mildly expensive.. to really, really damn expensive real quickly.

No kidding. I’d love to know what led up to that point

My guess... the crane not using it's outriggers. Or ground failure under the near side outrigger.

Yikes.... Looked pretty sketchy from the beginning....

We had a crane collapse like that on campus where a worked back in the day. I know the guy operating it either got really injured or died, I can't remember. I think it came down to how they had buttressed it on a hill they were on, maybe it was too close to the slope? Kinda wondering how the Bronco got there in the first place.

This is why we have certified crane operators, though cranes going over is still fairly common.

Probably a road, no mud on the tires

Regardless, at least the fender flares were pulled before hand.

Only 2 axles, so maybe 40Ton rating?

I recognize the brand...

looks like the out riggers were out, but probably using the edge of whatever they were on failed.

Ol' boy with the kids sand bucket be like, "Shirtless man in shorts has GOT THIS. Ima just stand here."

Not enough crane to execute the lift, terrible foundation to get outriggers to engage the earth.
