4 Killed After Crane Collapsed at Construction Site in Israel
Aftermath vid. Four people were killed Sunday after a crane collapsed at a construction site in Israel. The crane came down in an industrial area. Three of the men were killed when concrete slabs, used to balance the crane, fell off and plummeted to the ground from a height of dozens of meters, landing on them. Rescue services and paramedics tried to rescue a fourth man who had been trapped atop the crane, but were forced to declare him dead as well. Two workers were lightly injured. Another was initially declared missing, but rescue services later located him and said he was unhurt. Also numerous people were hit when pieces of the crane fell to the ground. Police said they were investigating the incident. They announced that they had detained eight employees at the construction site and would question some of them under caution. Last month, a worker died of electrocution at the same site. |

Re: 4 Killed After Crane Collapsed at Construction Site in Israel
Why is one guy dangling from a rope on top of the crane? Is that a safety catch rope of some kind?

Re: 4 Killed After Crane Collapsed at Construction Site in Israel
Looking at the mobile crane there as well. Looks like they were either putting the tower crane up, or taking it down and the guy was wearing a harness attached to the part of the tower crane that stayed up. The problem could be, that the harness was not the correct type and instead of saving his life, it constricted his chest and his ability to breath correctly. A 4 point harness, correctly worn, would have enabled him to hang there for an hour or so, no problem. I could be wrong though. |
