If y'all notice, at 1:38 a bird lands on the rear left tire and the added weight made the chains fail. They forgot to factor in the bird's weight just in case one did land on the dump truck. Also, they are in the Southern Hemisphere, things weigh a little more down under. So obvious.
I bet they needed a change of pants! At first I saw one guy standing almost directly under it.. I bet he won't do that again. Glad it was low when it broke and that everyone is OK.
Chain slings failed simple as that. Probably weren't inspected prior and it is very possible that they were not rated to pick up that amount of weight. When one chain fails, the rest will follow.
i don't think he did. he walked closer to the camera. not sure of course, just guessing based on where he walks on the deck and where the front wheel landed
The broken chain was in between the wheel and body, got something in there that put too much stress on one link. The other side it was in contact with just the tire itself.
That's why we don't use chains in the US for heavy lifting. A chain is as strong as it's weakest link. It is very difficult to rate a chain's capacity. My experience, in the US we use "rated" nylon straps or chokers.
Couldn't really ask for a better "bad scenario" honestly. It could have dropped it higher off the ground, or as it was between the ship and dock. Glad no one got hit.
The chain broke because the weight was uneven! The crane driver should never have loaded the vehicle without a horizontal and equitable load. The back chains took the brunt of the lift. Physics 101!
Glad no one was hurt. All I can say at least it on ship. I was hoping it was going to fall between the ship and the pier but it fallen at the last minute on the boat deck. Nice landing.
Like 400 safety violations in this one video. Jesus Christ everyone from the foreman to the cameraman should be fired. No guideman. Walking underneath the load. No load bearing redundancy (always lift with 2x capacity of the load). And obviously the chains hadn't been load tested recently or they would have failed under test and not during use.
Maybe to avoid any flying chains, hooks and shackles that came hurling off the crane? i sure as hell wouldnt be standing around too close to 793 that just came crashing down
Obviously if you knew anything about hoisting and rigging that shouldn't have happened if they used the right weight capacity chain for that load and if they did use the correct chain then they miss calculated on the center of gravity. So indeed the people lifting the load aren't the brightest/safest.
Center of Gravity shifted Cargo hence forces on grommets were not evenly distributed - inspite of Spreader used. Most probably BL of Grommets too close to actual Cargo weight.
Oops... Did you see those guys run after it hit the deck? Why were they running? Once the truck hits the deck, it's all over. No need to run. But, I'll bet the Captain of that barge wasn't a happy camper after that.
Lucky guys. No OSHA in that country. OSHA is a huge PIA, but people walking underneath a crane load is somewhat of a no-no. Plus, it is relatively stupid? Survival of the fittest.
I think the rigging should have been different, should have used a four corner rig on top to keep the thing from tipping over and causing the chains to slip off.
I think the choice of rigging would have been fine if they had balanced the load before swinging it. Even the greenest rookie could see it was way out of level. I think they kept it too high off the deck too- they should have lowered it as soon as it had cleared the side of the ship.
Seemed like bad rigging when the left rear connection was inside the wheel and the right rear connection was outside the tire. Maybe that was a problem, maybe not. But bad planning and setup. Those guys were probably HEY YOU hires anyway.
How does this stuff happen.., SWL's are 4-8 times LESS than the failure point of chain's and sling's. A 10 ton chainset should take 40 tons before failure and a 10 ton sling should take 80 tons before failure, a least thats the way it is in NZ and were only sheep farmers.
Shoutout to the cameraman for keeping the camera on target when something actually happens
lol true
Who do you think loosened the chain?
@@joeyjamison5772 Lololol!!!!!
@@joeyjamison5772 i think the hook was too heavy
That's no shit there buddy!!!👍😂😂
"For Sale: 1 Cat Dumptruck, never driven and only dropped once."
Funny
That's why they wear helmets, just in case the truck falls on them.
jeet kune do is a good book to read
Hahaha win!
so what your trying to say is the helmet can save them from that heavy truck huh x_x is it a super helmet
Syed Adnaan LOL. I wasn't trying to say anything, it was just a joke.
:P oh k
"GOOD! right there! Alright, boys! Tie it down!"

Theres no bird on the wheel idk how you even think thats a bird
***** Shelton, is that you?
Must have been an African sparrow. They are big enough to carry coconuts.
Pete Diaz there is no bird.
That was some lucky break. A clean drop, with NO damage, and no injuries. Could have dropped over the railings. Give that an A+ "ACCIDENT".
Thats not a cat, it didnt land on all 4 feet
I taught that truck chassis had enough falling energy to go through the deck or explode one of the tires. Amazing how tough the deck and tires are.
The truck fell on a boat, not a deck.
Sorry my friend. It's a ship. It has a deck as called in the nautical world.
Kendall Sain LOL! That deck's made of mahogany!
Kendall Sain not a boat. A sheep.
I heard a captain correct a passenger one day
when you think about the amount of weight that will be on those tyres when fully loaded, an empty truck is really not much for them.
I bet they needed a change of pants! At first I saw one guy standing almost directly under it.. I bet he won't do that again. Glad it was low when it broke and that everyone is OK.
I'm just glad no one got hurt, I really really really hate seeing people doing their jobs and doing what they are suppose to be doing and get hurt.
Incorrect lifting tackle was used. Chains can not be used around the wheel hubs at this angle. Web slings should have been used.
Was looking for the first guy to get it right.
Those 2 guys are very talented, not just anyone can multitask a sprint while shitting themselves all at once, years of experience.
Crane Operator, "Well, I didn't rig the fucking thing!"
seems like huge loads are always lifted by spindly chains and straps. It is like they use the smallest things possible....sigh
Lucky bastards! Everyone escaped, and even the damage to the equipment seems minimal.
"ok now lower it... gently....gently....GENTLY....ok perfect!"
Chain slings failed simple as that. Probably weren't inspected prior and it is very possible that they were not rated to pick up that amount of weight. When one chain fails, the rest will follow.
When you manage to fail so well that you drop it perfectly.
Geeeeeeez... Did that bloke really walk underneath that @1.30?
What a numpty lol
i don't think he did. he walked closer to the camera. not sure of course, just guessing based on where he walks on the deck and where the front wheel landed
I got anxiety just watching those workers keep standing to close to the damn thing...
"There ya go! One dump truck loaded on deck, What's next?"
01:30 what a lucky son of a bitch
Props to the guy in the background in 1:39 who noticed something was wrong. Too bad there wasn't time to do anything.
The broken chain was in between the wheel and body, got something in there that put too much stress on one link. The other side it was in contact with just the tire itself.
Hi
I love the guy's accent he sounds like a badass
That's the last time that guy will walk under anything.
I heard the guy say a chain broke ?? I was always told never use chains for lifting or rigging. Hmm.
I don't understand why even some experienced workers stay under heavy loads. Unlike us, they may also have seen many horrible accidents too.
??
Thumbs up because no injuries and no damage. Great day for them all 👍
That's why we don't use chains in the US for heavy lifting. A chain is as strong as it's weakest link. It is very difficult to rate a chain's capacity. My experience, in the US we use "rated" nylon straps or chokers.
It doesn't matter how many times you tell people not to stand under a load, they know better.
Couldn't really ask for a better "bad scenario" honestly. It could have dropped it higher off the ground, or as it was between the ship and dock. Glad no one got hit.
The chain broke because the weight was uneven! The crane driver should never have loaded the vehicle without a horizontal and equitable load. The back chains took the brunt of the lift. Physics 101!
The conversation afterwards was not far from what you'd expect to hear in a movie.
British people hardly use strong language when terrible things like this take place, they seem respectful with their words ,
And that Ladies and Gentlemen is why you NEVER go under a hanging load!!
Glad no one was hurt. All I can say at least it on ship. I was hoping it was going to fall between the ship and the pier but it fallen at the last minute on the boat deck. Nice landing.
who the heck still use chain for such project. Heavy steel wire ropes are way tougher, and they don't snap unpredictably.
Right about ... THERE!!! Perfect, quick disconnect and grab the other one.
That's why there is a safety rule to never stand or walk under loads overhead.
a little bondo and some touch up paint charge extra for the stress test
Foreman Yells :
"OK - YEAH! - Just leave it right there."
A simple "sv_cheats 1" then set "sv_gravity" to the lowest integer and that wouldn't have happened.
@Juden Arier IDK, maybe tap the ~ on your smart phone.
If the world ran on gamebryo the truck woulda just clipped through the boat as it fell
@@Wafflepudding I could just imagine aircraft carriers without Vphysic Clip enabled.

Uh, on second thought I think I'll cancel my order.
That is why you never stand under a suspended load.
They didn't need more, they needed the right capacity.
The chain is only as strong as the weakest link. I don't think anyone walked underneath it. They would be changing their shorts if they had.
That's what happens when chains are used lifting a heavy load. Not to mention the constant rotating they were doing also.
It's a little hot.. I think I'll stand in the shade.
You can never have enough straps or chains for safety!
try the new moving job!!! it will wake you up better than coffee in the morning!!!!
Maybe to avoid any flying chains, hooks and shackles that came hurling off the crane? i sure as hell wouldnt be standing around too close to 793 that just came crashing down
Wow, bet they will learn not to get under loads.... Thank God they didn't learn the hard way.
Obviously if you knew anything about hoisting and rigging that shouldn't have happened if they used the right weight capacity chain for that load and if they did use the correct chain then they miss calculated on the center of gravity. So indeed the people lifting the load aren't the brightest/safest.
Well, you know... They gotta do a little bounce check before letting the customer take it off the lot...
the cowards run away instead of steadying the truck when it falls
must be union labor
Massive truck, little human. I'm absolutely positive people over at liveleak would love to see you try that dumbass.
Zack Smith im 96% sure talesin was joking.
Still lacking 4% :)
Talesin-God of the Internet And that would make you a dumb ass.
@ Please refer to my original comment. And it is Must not musty.
Center of Gravity shifted Cargo hence forces on grommets were not evenly distributed - inspite of Spreader used. Most probably BL of Grommets too close to actual Cargo weight.
At least they got it on the ship.
Never use chains, lifting strops should have been used really. Very lucky people indeed.
captain obvious behind the camera Lol "The chain broke"
Lmao I thought dude was going to jump overboard when it fell. Haha hahah!!
when lifting heavy loads watch the lift, never stand under a load and all ways have an escape route. Union rules.
Robert Oberbrunner not union, common sense.
Nice job of chaining, BTW! Chains break all the time, that's why you NEVER use only one. Not worth someone's life!
There ya go boys, shes loaded just as usual....
Thats why you don't use chains. A chain is only as strong as the weakest link. At least it looked like noone got hurt.
That is why we don't use chain in heavy lifts! Cable or nothing!
Even if I wasnt on the boat, I would have screamed loudly like a woman just for the sake of adding to the effects.
talk about lucky..and good timing for the blokes that got out of the way..next time they won't buy their chain at walmart!
the only major load that ever fell from one of our cranes was when my boss was lifting many many tons with chains. Scary when the chain snaps!
Chain twist, they should have done a look over on those chains and o links before hooking up.
I'm glad nobody got hurt check your chain keep up the good work bye-bye
Oops... Did you see those guys run after it hit the deck? Why were they running? Once the truck hits the deck, it's all over. No need to run. But, I'll bet the Captain of that barge wasn't a happy camper after that.
Chain links are weak, why would they use them? Steel cables are Way safer and way stronger.
These guys should never work in a parade as float handlers.
easily avoidable...not figuring out weight requirements and rigging capacity
good thing parking brake was set
Can tell it was South Africa from the accent alone.
That could have been a lot worse. They should have longer guide ropes for a lift like that!
Lucky guys. No OSHA in that country. OSHA is a huge PIA, but people walking underneath a crane load is somewhat of a no-no. Plus, it is relatively stupid? Survival of the fittest.
well, there are probably safer ways but this is certainly the fastest!
I think the rigging should have been different, should have used a four corner rig on top to keep the thing from tipping over and causing the chains to slip off.
that is the fastest and safest way to load cargo.. bahahaha
I actually wish that would’ve happened when those idiots were walking under it. First lesson is to NEVER FUCKIN EVER WALK UNDER A SUSPENDED LOAD!!!
They rigged it totally wrong. I’m surprised it lifted that far without breaking. Do stupid things, win stupid prizes.
Illustrated reason why not to stand under (or near, really) something a crane is lifting....
Who the hell uses chains to lift? We always, always use cables or straps and only use chains to tie down.
youre good..youre good.... youre good.... dont worry captain well buff out those scratches
Did not rig it level. Sling on rear carrying more of total load than others in front. Bad rigging and choice of rigging.
I think the choice of rigging would have been fine if they had balanced the load before swinging it. Even the greenest rookie could see it was way out of level. I think they kept it too high off the deck too- they should have lowered it as soon as it had cleared the side of the ship.
Seemed like bad rigging when the left rear connection was inside the wheel and the right rear connection was outside the tire. Maybe that was a problem, maybe not. But bad planning and setup. Those guys were probably HEY YOU hires anyway.
Perfect. Nailed it
Those were steel cables , not Walmart chains !
running to get new pants, natural reaction
Watch from 1:38 your welcome.
I cant believe there was a guy standing underneath the damn thing in the begginning
was the chain rated for such a heavy load and then fail, or was it simply chained up with whatever looked like it could hold?
1:47 "Jesus chrust", the new item at pizza hut.
How does this stuff happen..,
SWL's are 4-8 times LESS than the failure point of chain's and sling's.
A 10 ton chainset should take 40 tons before failure and a 10 ton sling should take 80 tons before failure, a least thats the way it is in NZ and were only sheep farmers.
No cats were harmed in the making of this video.
imagine the weight on the boat it was dropped on.....
bet the guy that started to walk under that thing shit himself when the chain broke, lol!
that one dude ALMOST got it haha
