  • When i put up a new fence post I nail a 2x4 to it while the cement dries. This rig had no 2x4s and see what happened!

  • Wow! I put this on oilpatchworld for everyone to see there too

  • If Chuck Norris was there he would have crapped his pants and screamed for his mother.

  • What he said

  • can someone explain what just happened? what is a tree leg and why is that dissonant sound bleeep all the video?

  • @emigrantgap

    The beeping is the big crane's slew warning device.

    It is trying to pick up one pile using a ILT (internal lifting tool) but the rest of the jacket sank/rolled over.

    The piles are hammered into the sea bed to hold the jacket firmly.

    No idea what got them to this situation but it does happen from time to time.

  • hmmmm... expensive mistake...

  • um... we ment to do that

  • good music.

  • GET OFF DUMBASS!!!

  • well, thats going to be expensive to fix...

  • This exactly shows how dangerous our work is.

  • Wow, 60 seconds boredom and then another 18 seconds of unspectular action. Plus an annoying siren.

  • @TorPedoCXC are you blind?

  • TIMMMBERRR!

  • after reading all the comments, i wish i can share the findings. But hand are tied due to Legal Reason.

  • lol well your not getting that section back hopefully it can be turned into a tax write off

  • Yes this happened offshore Malaysia, South China Sea. DLB264 was there to install the jacket and was supposed to do the topside afterwards. I do agree with the alarm sound that it indicates the crane boom is turning. DLB264 was then released from site, and Kuroshio 1 was mobilized to retrieve the sunken jacket.

  • By the way, it was DLB-264

  • ha ha it was like the titanic XD

  • that was a o shit momint

  • wow, that sunk ( or whatever that was called...) alot faster than i thought

  • Fucking noobs it aint overloaded ore crane is turning -.-

  • Shit happens

  • Can they get that back out of the sea?

  • Stupid fool... i wonder who gave this people handling PTW for this work. They should get the experience ones not the new guys. It's not self accident scene situation but a human mistakes.

  • Malaysia I think.

  • actually they are performing an istallation on what is called a tripod jacket or platform. the long piping sticking up in the air are pilings. sometimes when the supervision is gung ho they do stupid shit.they should have driven the first piling down before setting the others. by not doing so the platform became topheavy and you see the results. ive been on two of those when they topple over , pretty hilarious stuff lmao

  • You are exactly right.I work for a company the builds and set those jackets.

  • where did it happen?

  • the alarms the crane overload alarm

  • No, it's the alarm telling bystanders that the crane is turning.

  • Wrong, its the overload indication alarm

  • No, it's the alarm telling people that the crane is turning.

  • sorry but that is incorrect, it is the crane overload indication, if you look closley, the jacket is in te sea being lowered to its footings on the sea bed, it cant be turning because it has a bridge linked to it on the right hand side.

  • Although that may be how it seems but that alarm would be on the inside of the cab. What would be the point on it being outside???

  • the over load alarm is outside so everyone can hear it, to warn them ofIf a crane was overloaded and i was walking past, i would want to be informed so i could get out of the way, i am part of the deck crew on a plaform in the north sea.

  • Yeah ok....

  • 90% alarm in cab then 110% on deck warning to all on deck!

  • what was that?

  • That is an oil rig collapsing. It was a prop up rig, one that stands up when it is at its destination. one legs broke so it fell.

  • Where was that?
