Crane Accident - Australia (NSFW - contains bad language)

Aftermath photos can be found here: goo.gl Video of an accident that happened in Australia in 2008 at the Wesfarmers Curragh coal mine in central Queensland. The official report cited operator error, and rumor has it the operator was inexperienced and pulled the wrong lever and allowed the winch to go into free-fall. He tried to catch it on the drum brake but that overheated, exploded and caught fire as you can see. The dragline boom was being lowered for maintenance, and as you can see the correct radius hadn't been chosen to let the drag line boom clear the M4600-based Transilift boom. The operator suffered minor injuries.

A lego crane. In the future I might get more power function parts and add a crawler base, making it mobile. The music in the background is Markus Guentner - Express Yourself and happened to be playing as I started filming. All credit goes to him and his affiliates.
