Double Crane Collapse

Two construction workers in the Venezuelan capital of Caracas are extraordinarily lucky to be alive, after their 60-tonne double cranes collapsed into an enormous pit at a train station.

Moments before, one of the men can be heard telling his workmates that he is attempting a "dangerous manoeuvre" but is "doing an excellent job." The video appears to show the first crane slam to the ground, creating a chain reaction that seems to pull the second crane down into the pit. Two people were injured as a result of the crane crash.
