| Are you looking for a way to slow down or stop your construction project? Here’s 20 pictures of some crane accidents that I’m sure not only slowed down these projects, but added quite a bit to the cost of those projects at the same time. Poor set-up accounts for over 60 percent of all crane tip-overs. To the best of our knowledge, these images are real, they are not doctored or photoshopped in any way. |

Fortunately nobody was injured which is amazing because the boom of the crane extends right out into the middle of a busy intersection. The crane has 70 tonne lifting capacity so it is very large. The rescue operation used 3 different cranes to remove it and took all day. |

Dallas, Texas, two workers were injured in a construction accident when a crane lowering a 9-ton pipe toppled over. The weight of the crane caused the cab of the machine to lift off the ground, leaning over the side of a building at a 45-degree angle. The pipe fell and landed on two work vehicles, while the actual crane landed on the roof. |
