Failed Car Rescue

Epic Fail

failfailfailfailfailfailfail wat a loser o ya and FAIL

Dumbass didn't compensate for the weight of the water soaked interior. He should've backed up to the edge, so that weight of the engine at the front of the truck could offset the weight of the car... but then his boom wouldn't have reached. Needed a bigger crane. Pay once, cry once.

@Wossie, that link doesn't work. Just sends me to TY's homepage.

Yes hr08 I was going to point out the lack of outriggers also. The truck could have been positioned for better counterbalance also, perpendicular to the load with the cab on the opposite end. The truck would have had to be driven straight forward once the car was clear though, swinging the arm to the side would merely turn the truck over. But the BIGGEST issue here is.... the truck is underrated for this duty. This is a large loader... not a heavy duty crane. And hr08's biggest point was probably what took the operator most by surprise... the amount of nooks and crannies within the car that retains all the water once submerged. Cars aren't made to drain water like this. I'm interested in seeing the other cranes too... I'm pretty shocked to hear that, with such a huge warning sign before them, of bad operation. Maybe a large enough crane to lift this truck out didn't have enough room for it's outriggers?? It's trye that they don't have much room, but it takes a silly amateu

I found the second crane, now to find the others. I'll be back. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0EQr2nWYpL4

pas de stabilisateurs... (1st faute GRAVE) pas mal la technique! j'en rigole qd il n y a pas de mort.. en plus le pavillon n'a pas été sanglé à "l'étranglé" (2nd faute GRAVE) ce qui a certainement provoquer un transfert de masse... lors du vidage et badaboom.. (le moteur étant à l'avant et le rendant plus lourd de ce côté-ci à fini par déséquilibré la charge (la sangle glisse vers l'arrière et tout le poids repart vers l'avant ). on peux supposer aussi que le nez du véhicule à peut-être pu toucher la berge, lors de la remontée, ce qui aurai aussi pu une fois de plus favoriser le déséquilibre de la charge. Sinon pour ce qui est de l'évaluation des moyens de levage pour ma part ça me parai déjà vraiment juste ( grue/camion) = env 3 à 4t grd max ... (à vue de nez) en plus sans stabilisateurs! c'est du suicide... prenez env 1500kg de voiture + env 3 m3 d'eau chargée (sale) ( 3500 kg ) game over..! Bcp de "novices" font l'erreur de croire

Believe it or not the next three cranes that were called in ended up in the drink also. Happened in Ireland to the best of my knowledge.

*plop*

duuuh- should I lift if off the rear or front where my truck is most stable... I mean it's only a small car,, FILLED WITH A COUPLE THOUSAND LITRES OF WATER YOU IDIOT! lol work can really suck sometimes!

Parece cosa de gallegos... ¡Tanto bobo mirando el agua que cae y nadie mirando la estabilidad de la grua!
