i respect you OSHA experience
i built wood roller coasters for Dinn Coaster Corp for 4 years.
along with cellular experience 8 years.
i was on hand for 4 crane accidents & 3 of them were rigging errors.
i guarantee you that in NYC the accidents will be found to be caused by not bracing the tower of the crane correctly .
i have seen 2 cranes tump over before they ever made a pick. the outriggers were jacked up. they were set up buy guys with litle experience. the prima donna operators would not even get out & look at what was about to happen to them.
i bet i have been invoved in at least 2000 crane picks

i just think that there are lots of guys who don't have a clue, involved in major responsibilities now.

i respect the Granbury flathead record more though
