Video captures the moment an overhanging building falls onto an excavator.
This is one of those edge-of-the-seat videos where the outcome is obvious long before it actually happens. A high reach excavator is busily working on the deconstruction of a tower block but when the camera pans up about 20 seconds in, a large overhang at the top of the building is revealed.
There is then an agonising wait before the inevitable finally happens, a large section of concrete falling onto the boom of the machine below.
Thankfully, judging by the subsequent wrestling the operator attempts to free the partially buried machine, he was uninjured.
