MPerson Posted July 8, 2009 Share #4 Posted July 8, 2009 The Beeb has a good photo of the crane curved over the building when it happened on Monday. BBC Merseyside Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elansprint72 Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share #5 Posted July 8, 2009 A bit messy. (The situation, not the photograph ) Why is it always you who sees these things:confused: This is the third crane to collapse in Liverpool this year; I have quite a collection of bolts now. The crane operator is in hospital but will be OK, he was ejected from the cab, clung to the roof of the building but then fell down to street level through the "shaft" made by the counter-balance which went right through the building to the sub basement. Fortunately this weight went down the stairwell rather than through the apartments, which were occupied at the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete they are eventually going to capture you if keep doing this just to create photographic opportunities.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elansprint72 Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share #10 Posted July 8, 2009 It's a good thing it did not fall in this direction, this is the electricity transformer station for central Liverpool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever there's a catastrophe, Pete's about. My guess is Pete's wife is the telephone operator for Ainscough's. Great for composition, colour, tonality and err......... exposure.

Actually, I sold the crane business about the same time as you got out of wet fish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
