Chlorinated or saline? Beverly Hillbillies had a cement pond.

Ponding or bird bath. See now you’ve learned something

Cause I’ve never seen one come down without a mobile assist crane. And you know what? They reach the fricking top of the crane. And those cranes were 350+ feet in the air.

The news said they got the cranes from north of BR. I was thinking is a B&G or Turner or maybe something that was getting demobilized out of a plant and they hurried it up and sent it out the gate.

I hope they consult the fire chief like they did for the statues.

It was a facebook post shared by a friend, so I don't believe there is a way for me to share it. It's shite quality because it was texted to him. This is a screenshot of the bent shoring in the video.
In the video, the narrator is speaking Spanish. A friend translated it:
quote:
0:03 - 0:15 "Look Paco. The *sarcasm* "best engineering." Look at these big *unintelligible* without shite for beams. *more unintelligible*"
0:17 - 0:29 "It's going to break. Look at this one. Look Paco. Look how this one is. They didn't remove this one because it's too bent; it has too much pressure. (Not sure if he says "they didnt" or "they couldnt")
0:38 - 0:57 "The big spaces without any beams. Some incredibly shitty structure that was put together by the architects and engineers *unintelligible* ay, papa (similar to "damn")

That post shore didn't bow like that from vertical pressure.

I’ve never had a Messican named Paco work for me.
You can get hearing aids that translate Spanish to English. Not to hijack.

Are you really comparing a tower crane that’s 1,000 feet in the air to this one which is about 200 feet? I like debating with intelligent people but you’re just ignorant and belligerent when you can’t admit you’re wrong.

Indisputable evidence there

That post shore looks light for that story height and it’s not laced. Who the frick knows with the quality of this picture. We could in fact be looking at a stripper pole as Martini said.

It might not even be at the building you think.
