    Sweet lord what a disaster. I think there’s a typo though, a 500 ton crane can’t be real. Anyways all this just because a pin broke.

    There's tire cranes that are even bigger. Also track cranes over 2,000 tons. And a gantry in China good for 22,000 tons.

    But the picture in the article is identical to our 115 here at Fesco.

    500 ton cranes are very real and much bigger then that. Check or Mammoet or Sarens Crane and what the big ones look like.
