Crane Takes A Dive
Only in Russia would a 35 ton crane be used to lower 50 ton dozer. Only $100,000 in damage and one unemployed crane operator. A 35-Ton Crane can lift around 22,000lbs at a radius of 30' feet, that's only 11 ton.

Looks like most are just a suction-cup deal that you snap a smart phone into. Turns out people use them because it's so easy to buy yourself a cop or a judge in Russia.
I found "Serbianfailblog", they have some good ones up.
There is also a lot of fraud. In this one, you see a guy trying it, walks up to a stopped car and sprawl across the hood.

In Russia the weight limit charts on equipment is just a suggestion and doesn't really mean anything......
At least that is what I read on teh internet somewhere.
We had a rule at the Mountain when I worked there: If you get the D-9 stuck, you are poop outa luck, cuz that's the top of the food chain.
