Demolition death wish

A reader has sent in a video showing a method of demolition involving an excavator and crane that happens far more often than it should.

A quick glance of this uploaded clip and you can be forgiven for believing that it is an extremely well doctored clip that are often seen going ‘viral’. A closer examination and this really is a dangerous as it looks!

Although the website is claiming the incident happened in Germany it is more likely that it happened in either Austria, Slovakia or Hungary as the crane is owned by Austrian crane rental company Kampel which is based on the Austrian border.

One way of doing things

In the words of our reader: “This is the most ridiculous and dangerous example of demolition I have ever seen. If this is not a death wish I'm in the wrong profession.”

Agreed - most definitely a death wish!
