Scary stuff! I read on youtube that the crane driver and cutter both recovered. Lucky. Were you part of the crew?

Yeah i read they were both fine, and no thankfully i was not apart of that crew just another you tuber/ aspiring arborist.

Well there is something that can be learned from this. Plan better and know! Seems to me the rigger or crane driver must have made a profound error about the load size and/or position of crane / stabilisers / counterweights. Alternatively they stuck a stabiliser through an underground cavity of some kind. Gut turning stuff to watch.

looks to me like the crane broke off the chassis......
