Did anyone here see the crane collapse in Seattle? I have been around a few jobs where a tower crane was broken down and I was puzzled to see that piece of mast fall the way it did. I wonder if it broke loose from its rigging maybe? Strange sight for sure.

What does that have to do with a requirement for fall protection?

With the car plants and osha up our asses here, there's no getting around it...and I've been doing this for over 20 years.
