[quote]This morning, a man from IJsselstijn wanted to propose to his girlfriend in a original way, but things did not go according to plan. He was supposed to appear in front of her bedroom window, suspended beneath the crane, but it was not properly secured and fell over.

I bet the Girlfriend was pissed at him after this.] Secondly, Why would you use this big of a crane just to hoist yourself in front of a window.
what do you use to remove a crane? another crane! what do you remove that crane with? yet another crane!
Why not use a cherry picker or something smaller

Ah yes,the beautiful city of IJsselstijn.

IJsselstijn sounds like a 10 year old's Xbox Live username
I thought it was some Icelandic town

Damn, that massive crane fell over due to a single person being hoisted on it? I've seen boom trucks like these hoist massive beams that at least weigh 1'000 + pounds. Only reason i could see it falling over is because, judging by the picture, he only has one outrigger deployed.

Huh, same thing happened where I work a couple months ago. Except this one caused about a million dollars in damage to the crane and the building. It also crushed the AC unit it was lifting. Felt like a mini earthquake when it fell haha. [video=youtube;DhHhp-0BSbU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhHhp-0BSbU[/video]
