yup, there's about 15 more mpgs and lots of more pics.... The pics
are already up on my page (http://www.giccs.georgetown.edu/~dan/lego)
and I'll fix my page generation script today to deal with mpgs as
well, so they'll be up there too.

I can't believe you were recording this:
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/zigdon/Wamalug/GATS/cranecrash.mpg
Cool!
I should explain... The show was almost over and I was experimenting
with the lifting limits of the crane. The flatbed trailer (that the
beams were delivered to the construction site on) was just a little too
heavy to lift. I grabbed a roll of duct tape to use as additional
counterweight. That worked and as you can see I was able to lift the
flatbed on top of the building. Unfortunately, I diddn't think about what
would happen when the crane no longer had the load of the flatbed.
The instant the flatbed rested on the building the crane fell backwards and
made a most impressive disaster that was unfortunately not caught on tape.

actually it was Chris Tracy who was filming it, and the reason he didn't get
the end of the crash was that he was running away to avoid being hurt (or
damaging the camera!) :)

...Chicken!! You have to make sacrifices for high art (in particular,
high art falling to low places and making big messes! :-)
