Do you remember that pic-by-pic (it was posted in the basement) that showed the crane being used to pull the car out of a river, and then the crane falls in with the car? Then they had to get a bigger crane out pull out the first crane, but it couldn't do it either.

Yeah, imagine gettin out a semi on ice.

Yep, I remember that.

The problem is you'd need a big ass crane to pull that thing out of there. The combined weight of the crane and semi would be a lot, and given that they fell through the ice at that point, the surrounding ice is probably thin or at least compromised by the big gaping hole the truck fell through.

sorry to hear it was cancelled, but it seemed like you still had a good time.

Im no professional photographer. The camera you use makes a big difference, but so does having your father who is a pro photographer by your side. Thanks for the compliment though.

Notice the ice around it isn't fresh, but closed in. I'd be willing to guess that semi has been in that hole for a while.

Actually, the last big crane falling in the water is a photoshop.

HEAT owns all when you're in that climate.
