Selfie Death Wish

A reader in the UK has sent in a video of a man who has filmed himself climbing to the tip of a luffing jib crane in order to take a ‘selfie’.

Similar to a video that was sent to us last year (see: Total Nut Case) the video acts as a reminder to secure job sites and out of service cranes. That being said, in this instant the crane looks to have been properly secured – I guess there is not much you can do to stop someone with a Death Wish!

Please do not try this at home!

Rooster - If he fell, he would probably bury himself ( if the ground below was soft enough !)

If he fell there would be the police ,fire service and ambulance in attendance. Then the coroner and the health and safety. Then we have the undertakers and finally his family who have to bury him.
