Description:
Crane overturned while the boom was approximately 90 feet in the air, when it came down it missed the neighbouring building by 3 feet. The operator was uninjured but was taken to hospital for shock. The crane had been setup too close to the edge of the excavation and as the boom moved further away from the main body of the vehicle it was pulled and turned over.
