    Demolished water tank falls on excavator - GIF

    Demolished water tank falls on excavator. Looks like the operator tried to bail, but was belted in?

    The operator just barely escaped – getting his name in the paper.

    I had a similar experience with a large stack of scrap cars... all you can do is slew away to put the boom that side....and hope. Still safer in the cab than out.
