Oooh Dear.

More like "FuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuCK!"

The building looks new ? it all grey washed cement and a crane/lift attached to the rear.

Built part where they shouldn't have?

Government make-work project?

Bigger idiot than it first appears?

Another one bites the dust ... :(

How can a building that large collapse totally from one support failure?

Sadly I can’t imagine the excavator operator living through that.
