Faucet fall in Chilean port caught on video
A tragedy almost happened during construction work in the port of the Chilean city of Antofagasta. A worker managed to leave the cabin of a falling crane at the last moment.
As the crane operator himself said, he was working with equipment and lifting a heavy load when the crane began to sag and fall over. Realizing that the situation could not be fixed, the man jumped out of the car at the last moment and survived.
The company where the Chilean worked confirmed that the employee did not receive serious injuries. The crane belonged to another company, whose equipment had already had a similar accident in September 2023. Social media users criticized the man's company, noting that it was saving on people's safety.
“Even the workers who were watching what was happening understood that it was impractical to carry this load,” commentators write.
