        Whoa, can't believe that guy crawled out the basket like that, he definitely ain't been trained in JLG safety.

          This is insanity.

          Are they seriously loosening the anchors without it attached to the crane?

          BTW, you two knucklheads knock it off. I have moderator certs out the wazoo.

              Lol! Naw. Each one of those straps are good for 42,500# vertical basket, 21,200 straight vertical. They good.

                  serious question

                  can you tell by the color of strap the rating? wasn't sure if different colors show the different rating

                    Shoot, even if the city found an operator, and rented the crane, I would be shocked that anyone would rent a crane to the city for this...

                    there was no vote.
                    Correct , mayor told city council to take a vote , they voted 6-1 for removal of statues ... people never got a chance to vote

                    that amount of weight...free swinging...on "straps"...not chains.....(because they aren't going to have guidelines off it...) on a fully extended boom that is over a incline...

                      Yes, exactly. They are color coded.

                              Yeah, I am talking equipment vendor. No way the city has a man lift and a crane laying around for just such an occasion.

                              However, now that I think about it, are firemen typically certified to run a crane?

                                This is almost as bad as waiting for the giraffe to give birth.... And for the record.. I've established ironman as the crane rigging expert in the room. That is all.
