If it happened in Orchard Rd where it's more crowded there would probably be casualties.

This is not a crane. This is BOOM MAN-LIFT.

Left of pic is scissor man-lift, the other 2 are booms.




Got all sorts of styles and sizes. Some giants can reach near 100 meters.



Man-Lift got no cable and hook and Hoist of the Cranes.
